Development, diet and dynamism: longitudinal and cross-sectional predictors of gut microbial communities in wild baboons.
Gut bacterial communities play essential roles in host biology, but to date we lack information on the forces that shape gut microbiota between hosts and over time in natural populations. Understanding these forces in wild primates provides a valuable comparative context that enriches scientific perspectives on human gut microbiota. To this end, we tested predictors of gut microbial composition...
متن کاملDo gut microbial communities differ in pediatric IBS and health?
Human gastrointestinal microbial communities are recognized as important determinants of the host health and disease status. We have recently examined the distal gut microbiota of two groups of children: healthy adolescents and those diagnosed with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We have revealed the common core of phylotypes shared among all children, identified genera dif...
متن کاملMicrobial Imprinting in Gut Development and Health
The microbial community of the gastrointestinal system has an enormous impact on the vertebrate host. The relationship begins at birth or hatch and evolves to a stable ecosystem in which diverse, and unique, niches are created and inhabited by microorganisms. These microbial populations tend to be similar within a host species (and even across host species), but each system is a unique construc...
متن کاملInteractions between parasites and microbial communities in the human gut
The interactions between intestinal microbiota, immune system, and pathogens describe the human gut as a complex ecosystem, where all components play a relevant role in modulating each other and in the maintenance of homeostasis. The balance among the gut microbiota and the human body appear to be crucial for health maintenance. Intestinal parasites, both protozoans and helminths, interact with...
متن کاملSpecial Issue: Gut Microbial Communities in Health and Disease
The complex and ancient relationships between animal hosts and the microbial communities that inhabit their digestive tracts have become the focus of intense research in recent years. As a result, our understanding of gut microbial ecology and of the evolutionary and physiologic impacts of gut microbial communities in animal hosts has grown markedly. Indeed, members of the gut microbiota have n...
