A Human Stool-Derived Bilophila Wadsworthia Strain Caused Systemic Inflammation in Specific-Pathogen-Free Mice Feng et al. Gut Pathog (2017) 9:59 DOI 10.1186/s13099-017-0208-7 Gut Pathogens RESEARCH Open Access A human stool‑derived Bilophila wadsworthia strain caused systemic infammation in specifc‑pathogen‑free mice Zhou Feng, Wenmin Long, Binhan Hao, Ding Ding, Xiaoqing Ma, Liping Zhao and Xiaoyan Pang* Abstract Background: Bilophila wadsworthia is a major member of sulfdogenic bacteria in human gut, it was originally recovered from diferent clinical specimens of intra-abdominal infections and recently was reported potentially linked to diferent chronic metabolic disorders. However, there is still insufcient understanding on its detailed function and mechanism to date. Methods: A B. wadsworthia strain was isolated from fresh feces of a latent autoimmune diabetes in adults patient and we investigated its pathogenicity by oral administration to specifc-pathogen-free mice. Tissue samples and serum were collected after sacrifce. Stool samples were collected at diferent time points to profle the gut microbiota. Results: Bilophila wadsworthia infection resulted in the reduction of body weight and fat mass, apparent hepatos- plenomegaly and elevated serum infammatory factors, including serum amyloid A and interleukin-6, while without signifcant change of the overall gut microbiota structure. Conclusions: These results demonstrated that higher amount of B. wadsworthia caused systemic infammatory response in SPF mice, which adds new evidence to the pathogenicity of this bacterium and implied its potential role to the chronic infammation related metabolic diseases like diabetes.

We examine how gut bacteria possess their own daily rhythmicity in terms of composition, their localization to intestinal niches, and functions. We review evidence that gut bacteria modulate host rhythms via microbial metabolites such as butyrate, polyphenolic derivatives, vitamins, and amines. Lifestyle stressors such as altered sleep and eating patterns that may disturb the host circadian system also influence the gut microbiome. The consequent disruptions to microbiota-mediated functions such as decreased conjugation of bile acids or increased production of hydrogen sulfide and the resultant decreased production of butyrate, in turn affect substrate oxidation and energy regulation in the host.

Their isolation, cultivation and correct identification differs significantly from the workup of aerobic species, although the use of new technologies (e.g., matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, whole genome sequencing) changed anaerobic diagnostics dramatically. In the past, antimicrobial susceptibility of these microorganisms showed predictable patterns and empirical therapy could be safely administered but recently a steady and clear increase in the resistance for several important drugs (β-lactams, clindamycin) has been observed worldwide. For this reason, antimicrobial susceptibility testing of anaerobic isolates for surveillance

NAFLD is principally characterized by an excessive fat accumulation in the hepatocytes. Diet is considered as one of the main drivers to modulate the composition of gut microbiota, which participate in different processes, affecting human metabolism. A disruption in the homeostasis of gut microbiota may lead to dysbiosis, which is commonly reflected by a reduction of the beneficial species and an increment in pathogenic microbiota. Gut and liver are in close relation due to the anatomical and functional interactions led by the portal vein, thus altered intestinal microbiota might affect liver functions, promoting inflammation, insulin resistance and steatosis, which is translated into NAFLD. This review will highlight the association between diet, gut microbiota and liver, and how this axis may promote the development of NAFLD progression, discussing potential mechanisms and alterations due to the dysbiosis of gut microbiota. Finally, it will revise the variations in gut microbiota composition in NAFLD, and it will focus in specific species, which directly affect NAFLD progression.

While substantially proven for healthy individuals, these effects are more ambiguous in subjects with intestinal diseases. At the same time, a diet low in these fermentable carbohydrates, the low FODMAP (acronym for Fermentable Oligo-, Di-, Mono-saccharides, And Polyols) diet, is gaining popularity as a treatment option for symptom relief in irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease. There are, however, several indications that this diet induces effects opposite to those of prebiotic supplementation, resulting in gut microbiome changes that might be detrimental. Here, we provide a systematic review of the effects of low and high FODMAP diets on human gastrointestinal microbiota composition in adults with intestinal diseases, through literature screening using the databases PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. We summarize study findings on dietary impact in patients, including the effect on bacterial taxa and diversity.

J Transl Med (2017) 15:73 DOI 10.1186/s12967-017-1175-y Journal of Translational Medicine REVIEW Open Access Infuence of diet on the gut microbiome and implications for human health Rasnik K. Singh1, Hsin‑Wen Chang2, Di Yan2, Kristina M. Lee2, Derya Ucmak2, Kirsten Wong2, Michael Abrouk3, Benjamin Farahnik4, Mio Nakamura2, Tian Hao Zhu5, Tina Bhutani2 and Wilson Liao2* Abstract Recent studies have suggested that the intestinal microbiome plays an important role in modulating risk of several chronic diseases, including infammatory bowel disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. At the same time, it is now understood that diet plays a signifcant role in shaping the microbiome, with experiments showing that dietary alterations can induce large, temporary microbial shifts within 24 h. Given this association, there may be signifcant therapeutic utility in altering microbial composition through diet. This review systematically evaluates current data regarding the efects of several common dietary components on intestinal microbiota. We show that consumption of particular types of food produces predictable shifts in existing host bacterial genera. Fur‑ thermore, the identity of these bacteria afects host immune and metabolic parameters, with broad implications for human health. Familiarity with these associations will be of tremendous use to the practitioner as well as the patient.
