Correction: Body Weight Selection Affects Quantitative Genetic Correlated Responses in Gut Microbiota
The abundance of gut microbiota can be viewed as a quantitative trait, which is affected by the genetics and environment of the host. To quantify the effects of host genetics, we calculated the heritability of abundance of specific microorganisms and genetic correlations among them in the gut microbiota of two lines of chickens maintained under the same husbandry and dietary regimes. The lines,...
متن کاملImpact of the Gut Microbiota on Vaccine Responses
Non-responsiveness or poor responsiveness to vaccines are challenging issues in vaccine development, and efforts have been made to find out the potential reasons for these conditions. Intestinal microbiome plays a key role in regulating and development of immune system and the composition and diversity of microbiota in different individuals on the one hand, and the imbalance of intestinal micro...
متن کاملGut Microbiota Composition in Obese and Normal Weight Adults in Iran
Background and purpose: Increasing prevalence of obesity over the past few decades constitutes a global health challenge. Recent evidence suggests that gut microbiota may contribute to weight control. So, the present study aimed at comparing the frequency of different bacteria in gut microbiota between obese and normal weight people in Iran. Materials and methods: Thirty normal weight (BMI of ...
متن کاملGut microbiota composition is associated with body weight, weight gain and biochemical parameters in pregnant women.
Obesity is associated with complications during pregnancy and increased health risks in the newborn. The objective of the present study was to establish possible relationships between gut microbiota, body weight, weight gain and biochemical parameters in pregnant women. Fifty pregnant women were classified according to their BMI in normal-weight (n 34) and overweight (n 16) groups. Gut microbio...
متن کاملThe First Report of Differences in Gut Microbiota Composition between Obese and Normal Weight Iranian Subjects
Background: Obesity is a complex disorder influenced by various genetic and environmental factors. It has been shown that gut microbiota, which colonizes gastrointestinal tract, has a substantial role as an environmental factor in the pathophysiology of obesity. Since the composition of gut microbiota alters with regard to different criteria, such as ethnicity, geographical location, diet, life...
