Obesity alters gut microbial ecology.
We have analyzed 5,088 bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences from the distal intestinal (cecal) microbiota of genetically obese ob/ob mice, lean ob/+ and wild-type siblings, and their ob/+ mothers, all fed the same polysaccharide-rich diet. Although the majority of mouse gut species are unique, the mouse and human microbiota(s) are similar at the division (superkingdom) level, with Firmicutes and B...
متن کاملMolecular microbial ecology in gut ecosystems
The microbial community inhabiting the gastrointestinal tract is represented by all major groups of microbes and is characterized by high population density, wide diversity and complexity of interactions. Resident microbial populations have been described as herbivores, omnivores, carnivores, and in a wide range of zoological classes where they contribute to the nutrition, physiology, immunolog...
متن کاملGut Microbiota: Metagenomics to Study Complex Ecology
The microbial community of the gastrointestinal tract is large and complex, making it difficult to study; the recent development of techniques for metagenomic analysis of gut microbiota should be a boon to the field.
متن کاملThe emerging medical ecology of the human gut microbiome.
It is increasingly clear that the human gut microbiome has great medical importance, and researchers are beginning to investigate its basic biology and to appreciate the challenges that it presents to medical science. Several striking new empirical results in this area are perplexing within the standard conceptual framework of biomedicine, and this highlights the need for new perspectives from ...
متن کاملAllometry and Ecology of the Bilaterian Gut Microbiome
Classical ecology provides principles for construction and function of biological communities, but to what extent these apply to the animal-associated microbiota is just beginning to be assessed. Here, we investigated the influence of several well-known ecological principles on animal-associated microbiota by characterizing gut microbial specimens from bilaterally symmetrical animals (Bilateria...
