Received: 15 April 2011; in revised form: 19 May 2011 / Accepted: 24 May 2011 / Published: 3 June 2011 Abstract: Systemic and local inflammation in relation to the resident microbiota of the human gastro-intestinal (GI) tract and administration of probiotics are the main themes of the present review. The dominating taxa of the human GI tract and their potential for aggravating or suppressing inflammation are described. The review focuses on human trials with probiotics and does not include in vitro studies and animal experimental models. The applications of probiotics considered are systemic immune-modulation, the metabolic syndrome, liver injury, inflammatory bowel disease, colorectal cancer and radiation-induced enteritis. When the major genomic differences between different types of probiotics are taken into account, it is to be expected that the human body can respond differently to the different species and strains of probiotics. This fact is often neglected in discussions of the outcome of clinical trials with probiotics. Keywords: probiotics; inflammation; gut microbiota 1. Inflammation Inflammation is a defence reaction of the body against injury. The word inflammation originates from the Latin word ―inflammatio‖ which means fire, and traditionally inflammation is characterised by redness, swelling, pain, heat and impaired body functions. -
Xiexin Tang Improves the Symptom of Type 2 Diabetic Rats by Modulation of the Gut Microbiota
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Xiexin Tang improves the symptom of type 2 diabetic rats by modulation of the gut microbiota Received: 30 August 2017 Xiaoyan Wei, Jinhua Tao , Suwei Xiao, Shu Jiang, Erxin Shang, Zhenhua Zhu, Dawei Qian Accepted: 13 February 2018 & Jinao Duan Published: xx xx xxxx Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a chronic metabolic disease which severely impairs peoples’ quality of life, currently attracted worldwide concerns. There are growing evidences that gut microbiota can exert a great impact on the development of T2DM. Xiexin Tang (XXT), a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, has been clinically used to treat diabetes for thousands of years. However, few researches are investigated on the modulation of gut microbiota community by XXT which will be very helpful to unravel how it works. In this study, bacterial communities were analyzed based on high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Results indicated that XXT could notably shape the gut microbiota. T2DM rats treated with XXT exhibited obvious changes in the composition of the gut microbiota, especially for some short chain fatty acids producing and anti-infammatory bacteria such as Adlercreutzia, Alloprevotella, Barnesiella, [Eubacterium] Ventriosum group, Blautia, Lachnospiraceae UCG-001, Papillibacter and Prevotellaceae NK3B31 group. Additionally, XXT could also signifcantly ameliorate hyperglycemia, lipid metabolism dysfunction and infammation in T2DM rats. Moreover, the correlation analysis illustrated that the key microbiota had a close relationship with the T2DM related indexes. The results probably provided useful information for further investigation on its active mechanism and clinical application. T2DM, a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia as a result of insufcient insulin secretion, insulin action or both1, is estimated that its numbers in the adults will increase by 55% by 20352. -

Cells were Gram-stain- negative, catalase-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile rods measuring 0.7–1.0 mm in width and 3.0–8.0 mm in length. The optimum temperature for growth of strain RL-CT was 37 6C (range 25–40 6C) and pH 7.0–7.5 (range pH 5.7–8.0). The strain could grow fermentatively on yeast extract, tryptone, arabinose, glucose, galactose, mannose, maltose, lactose, glycogen, pectin and starch. The main end products of glucose fermentation were acetate, H2 and CO2. Organic acids, alcohols and amino acids were not utilized for growth. Yeast extract was not required for growth; however, it stimulated growth slightly. Nitrate, sulfate, sulfite, thiosulfate, elemental sulfur and Fe(III) nitrilotriacetate were not reduced as terminal electron acceptors. -

Accumulating evidence suggests that gut microbiota Depression via the gut-brain axis play a role in the pathogenesis of depression, thereby contributing to the antidepressant Lipopolysaccharide actions of certain compounds. Here we investigated the role of gut microbiota in the antidepressant effects of Gut microbiota ketamine in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation model of depression. Ketamine (10 mg/kg) sig- nificantly attenuated the increased immobility time in forced swimming test (FST), which was associated with the improvements in α-diversity, consisting of Shannon, Simpson and Chao 1 indices. In addition to α-diversity, β-diversity, such as principal coordinates analysis (PCoA), and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) coupled with effect size measurements (LEfSe), showed a differential profile after ketamine treatment. -
Potential and Active Functions in the Gut Microbiota of a Healthy Human
Tanca et al. Microbiome (2017) 5:79 DOI 10.1186/s40168-017-0293-3 RESEARCH Open Access Potential and active functions in the gut microbiota of a healthy human cohort Alessandro Tanca1, Marcello Abbondio2, Antonio Palomba1, Cristina Fraumene1, Valeria Manghina1,2, Francesco Cucca2,3, Edoardo Fiorillo3 and Sergio Uzzau1,2* Abstract Background: The study of the gut microbiota (GM) is rapidly moving towards its functional characterization by means of shotgun meta-omics. In this context, there is still no consensus on which microbial functions are consistently and constitutively expressed in the human gut in physiological conditions. Here, we selected a cohort of 15 healthy subjects from a native and highly monitored Sardinian population and analyzed their GMs using shotgun metaproteomics, with the aim of investigating GM functions actually expressed in a healthy human population. In addition, shotgun metagenomics was employed to reveal GM functional potential and to compare metagenome and metaproteome profiles in a combined taxonomic and functional fashion. Results: Metagenomic and metaproteomic data concerning the taxonomic structure of the GM under study were globally comparable. On the contrary, a considerable divergence between genetic potential and functional activity of the human healthy GM was observed, with the metaproteome displaying a higher plasticity, compared to the lower inter-individual variability of metagenome profiles. The taxon-specific contribution to functional activities and metabolic tasks was also examined, giving insights into the peculiar role of several GM members in carbohydrate metabolism (including polysaccharide degradation, glycan transport, glycolysis, and short-chain fatty acid production). Noteworthy, Firmicutes-driven butyrogenesis (mainly due to Faecalibacterium spp.) was shown to be the metabolic activity with the highest expression rate and the lowest inter-individual variability in the study cohort, in line with the previously reported importance of the biosynthesis of this microbial product for the gut homeostasis. -

Cells were Gram-staining negative, non- motile, non-spore-forming straight rods. The strain grew rather well on PY agar slants supple- mented with a B-vitamin mixture as well as sugars (PYV4S medium) and made translucent and glossy colonies. Growth in liquid medium with the same composition, however, was scanty, and growth was not improved in spite of various additives to the medium. Strain WN081T produced small amounts of acetate, propionate, isobutyrate, butyrate, isovalerate and H2 from PYV liquid medium. The strain did not use carbohydrates or organic acids. The pH range for growth was narrow (pH 6.8‒8.2), having a pH optimum at 6.8‒7.5. The temperature range for growth was 10‒37°C, the optimum being 25‒30°C. The strain was sensitive to bile, and did not have catalase or oxidase activities. Hydrogen sulfi de was produced from L-cysteine and L-methionine as well as peptone. -
A Global Comparison of the Microbiome Compositions of Three

In this study, we performed a comparative analysis of the gut microbiome in the ileum, cecum, and colon of Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) (DLY) pigs showing two extreme feed conversion ratios (FCRs) using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The results revealed that the microbial community in the cecum and colon had signifcantly higher alpha diversity than the ileum. We further identifed 11, 55, and 55 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) with signifcantly diferent relative abundances between the high and low FCR pigs among the three gut locations, respectively. These OTUs were mainly associated with bacteria that participate in the metabolism of dietary polysaccharides and proteins. We then identifed two and nine metabolic pathways that were enriched in the cecum and colon of the high FCR pigs, respectively. The results suggested that the short chain fatty acids and indolic compounds produced by microbial fermentation might infuence porcine feed efciency. These results should improve our understanding of microbiota compositions in the diferent gut locations of commercial pigs and provide important insights into the efect of gut microbiota on porcine FCRs. -

However, it is not fully understood how ELS affects the body and behavior of children. Therefore, in this study, we performed social isolation on weaned pre- adolescent mice and investigated how ELS could affect gut microbiota and mouse behavior. Using the metagenomics approach, we detected an overall ELS-related change in the gut microbiota and identified Bacteroidales and Clostridiales as significantly altered bacterial groups. These metagenomic alterations impaired social behavior in ELS mice, which also correlated with the abundance of Bacteroidales and Clostridiales. Our results demonstrate that ELS alters the gut microbiota and reduces social behavior in adolescent mice.
