Oxalobacter formigenes Colonization and Oxalate Dynamics in a Mouse Model.
Animal and human studies have provided compelling evidence that colonization of the intestine with Oxalobacter formigenes reduces urinary oxalate excretion and lowers the risk of forming calcium oxalate kidney stones. The mechanism providing protection appears to be related to the unique ability of O. formigenes to rely on oxalate as a major source of carbon and energy for growth. However, much...
متن کاملAnabolic Incorporation of Oxalate by Oxalobacter formigenes.
Cell-free lysates of the strict anaerobe Oxalobacter formigenes contained the following enzymatic activities: oxalyl coenzyme A reductase, glyoxylate carboligase, tartronic semialdehyde reductase, and glycerate kinase. NAD(P)-linked formate dehydrogenase, serine-glyoxylate aminotransferase, and NAD(P) transhydrogenase activities were not detected. These results support the hypothesis that O. fo...
متن کاملResponse of Germfree Mice to Colonization by Oxalobacter formigenes and Altered Schaedler Flora
Colonization with Oxalobacter formigenes may reduce the risk of calcium oxalate kidney stone disease. To improve our limited understanding of host-O. formigenes and microbe-O. formigenes interactions, germfree mice and mice with altered Schaedler flora (ASF) were colonized with O. formigenes. Germfree mice were stably colonized with O. formigenes, which suggests that O. formigenes does not requ...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Oxalobacter formigenes Strain OXCC13
The lack of Oxalobacter formigenes colonization in the human gut is generally acknowledged as a risk factor for kidney stone formation since this microorganism can play an important role in oxalate homeostasis. Here, we present the genome sequence of OXCC13, a human strain isolated from an individual residing in Germany.
متن کاملIdentification of Oxalobacter formigenes in the faeces of healthy cats.
AIMS Oxalobacter formigenes is an oxalate-degrading intestinal bacterium that has been found in humans, cattle, sheep, rats and dogs. Its presence in the intestinal tract may be a protective factor against calcium oxalate urolithiasis because of its ability to degrade oxalate. The objective of this study was to determine whether O. formigenes could be detected in the faeces of healthy cats. M...
