Manipulation of the human gut microflora.
Manipulation of the human gut microflora is being attempted as a means of introducing into the digestive tract new micro-organisms which are beneficial to the host or which are able to bring about advantageous changes to the equilibrium populations and metabolic activities of the indigenous flora. In theory, this can be achieved by ingestion of nutrients or growth substances specifically favour...
متن کاملGut microflora as a target for energy and metabolic homeostasis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Gut microbiota plays an important role in health and disease, but this ecosystem remains incompletely characterized and shows a wide diversity. This review discusses new findings that may explain how gut microbiota can be involved in the control of energy and metabolic homeostasis. RECENT FINDINGS Over the past 5 years studies have highlighted some key aspects of the mammali...
متن کاملLactic acid microflora of the gut of snail Cornu aspersum
The intestinal lactic acid microflora of the edible snail Cornu aspersum was studied by culture-based methods and was phenotypically and molecularly characterized. The antibacterial activity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates was investigated. Snails in different stages of development were collected from farms located in several regions of Bulgaria. One hundred twenty-two isolates, belongin...
متن کاملTHE CONTRIBUTION OF GUT MICROFLORA TO PARACETAMOL METABOLIsM
During the last decade, the important role of gut microflora as a special organ of the gastrointestinal system in the metabolism of drugs is well known. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the gut microecological population with enzymatic systems, especially beta-lyase, in the metabolism of paracetamol in mice. Two groups of 20 white male laboratory mice BALB/c, body weight 32+/-1...
متن کاملThe influence of the gut microflora on food toxicity.
The impressive variety of reactions that can be performed by the gut flora on both exogenous and endogenously-produced compounds justifies its status as a major site of metabolism, comparable to the liver (Drasar et al. 1970; Scheline, 1973; Walker, 1973; Drasar & Hill, 1974). Furthermore, one might expect that the capacity of the flora to adapt to metabolic pressure by altering its component o...
