In humans, a complex interaction between the host immune system and commensal
microbiota is required to maintain gut homeostasis. In this symbiotic relationship, the …

Gut barrier function is key in maintaining a balanced response between the host and its
microbiome. The microbiota can modulate changes in gut barrier as well as metabolic and …

The discovery of Akkermansia muciniphila has opened new avenues for the use of this
abundant intestinal symbiont in next generation therapeutic products, as well as targeting …

Interactions between the host and gut microbiota can affect gut metabolism. In this study, the
individual performances of 252 hens were recorded to evaluate feed efficiency. Hens with …

The gut microbiota is currently recognized as an important factor regulating the homeostasis
of the gastrointestinal tract and influencing the energetic metabolism of the host as well as its …

Accumulating evidence indicates that gut microbiota participates in the pathogenesis and
progression of liver diseases. The severity of immune-mediated liver injury is associated …

Obesity is characterized by chronic low-grade, systemic inflammation, altered gut microbiota,
and gut barrier disruption. Additionally, obesity is associated with increased activity of …
