Caffeic acid metabolism by bacteria of the human gastrointestinal tract.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The metabolism of caffeic acid, previously shown to be carried out by the intestinal microbiota of man and experimental animals, has now been examined in a number of bacteria isolated from human feces. It has been found that of the 12 organisms isolated none has the ability to catalyze more than one reaction of the series leading from caffeic acid to either m-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid or 4-ethylcatechol.

Metabolism of Fructophilic Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from the Apis mellifera L. Bee Gut: Phenolic Acids as External Electron Acceptors
Fructophilic lactic acid bacteria (FLAB) are strongly associated with the gastrointestinal tracts (GITs) of Apis mellifera L. worker bees due to the consumption of fructose as a major carbohydrate. Seventy-seven presumptive lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from GITs of healthy A. mellifera L. adults, which were collected from 5 different geographical locations of the Apulia region of It...

Five hundred and ninety two Siberian sturgeon (A. baerii) fingerlings (average weight, 11.1±0.9 g) were randomly distributed in 16 tanks (150 L) at a density of 35 fish per tank and fed different treatments (Control, degrading bacteria, 2% PHB, degrading bacteria + 2%PHB) for 60 days. At the end of the experiment, the results indicated that the fish fed PHB or bacteria treatments had low midgut...
متن کاملWhole-Genome Sequence of Bifidobacterium longum Strain Indica, Isolated from the Gut of a Healthy Indian Adult
Bifidobacterium longum, a Gram-positive rod-shaped anaerobic bacterium, inhabits the human gastrointestinal tract and contributes significantly to oligosaccharide production, amino acid metabolism, and protection against intestinal inflammation. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of B. longum, which was isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of a healthy Indian adult.
متن کاملInvestigation of the effect of light, phenylalanine and caffeic acid on the production of phenolic acids in cell suspension culture of Salvia leriifolia
Abstract: Salvia leriifolia is a medicinal plant belonging to lamiaceae family. In this study, the influence of light, phenylalanine and caffeic acid on cell growth and accumulations of phenolic acids were investigated. For this propose, the leaf explants were cultured in MS medium supplemented with BAP and NAA for callus induction. A cell suspension culture of S. leriifolia derived from lea...

Extracellular vesicles, naturally released from all cell types including bacteria, are of great importance in medical microbiology due to transporting a variety of biomaterials, enzymes, and virulence factors, regulating immunity, and having roles in colonization and initiation of signaling pathways. These vesicles are also secreted from microbiota in the gastrointestinal tract and affect the h...
