Gut dysbiosis has been associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), one of the most
common gastrointestinal diseases. The microbial communities play essential roles in host …

Purpose Based on the fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and
polyols (FODMAP) hypothesis, the low-FODMAP diet has been suggested as a potential …

Probiotics can effectively improve ulcerative colitis (UC), but the mechanism is still unclear.
Here, shotgun metagenome and transcriptome analyses were performed to explore the …

Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) with fiber-free diets is an effective steroid-sparing treatment
to induce clinical remission in children with Crohn's disease (CD). However, the mechanism …

Gut bacteria are implicated in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but the strains driving these
associations are unknown. Large-scale studies of microbiome evolution could reveal the …

The microbiota in individual habitats differ in both relative composition and absolute
abundance. While sequencing approaches determine the relative abundances of taxa and …

Loss of antimicrobial proteins such as REG3 family members compromises the integrity of
the intestinal barrier. Here, we demonstrate that overproduction of REG3 proteins can also …

Purpose Genistein (GEN) has been reported to have diverse biological activities, including
antioxidant, hypolipidemic, and antidiabetic effects. This study investigated whether the …

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are complex, multi-functional glycans present in
human breast milk. They represent an intricate mix of heterogeneous structures which reach …

The gut microbiome analysis, with specific interest on their direct impact towards the human
health, is currently revolutionizing the unexplored frontiers of the pathogenesis and …
