We are delighted to introduce this Special Issue, which summarizes the current understanding of the complex relationship between the gut microbiome and the host. Animals and humans have evolved a digestive system that allows them to walk, swim...

background: increase in prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes which are of the main risk factors of metabolic syndrome, is not only the result of changes in genetic, diet or physical activity, but also an imbalance of micro flora may play an important role. therefore, alteration of micro flora using pre/probiotic is considered as a new strategy for treatment of metabolic disorders.   method...

Background: Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer in the world which is mainly caused by epigenetic and environmental factors. Among these epigenetic factors, gut microbiota is an important one. Although it has not been proved a unique group of bacteria correlated with colorectal cancer, these findings have generally demonstrated differences between healthy and disease gut microbio...

We review various ways of obtaining consistency between the idea of supersymmetric grand unification and an apparent low value of αs ∼ 0.112 indicated by several low energy experiments. We argue that to reconcile the low value of αs with the predictions of supersymmetric GUTs, we need to go beyond the standard minimal supersymmetric GUT scenario and invoke new physics either at 1011 − 1012 GeV,...

Extensive research on the nutritional and medical application of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) was performed in past decades. Besides nutritional values, new characteristics such as antibacterial and anticancer properties depict a bright future for high Selenium (Se) consumption in the coming years. Se is essential for the proper functioning of most of the m...

Abstract Using the third harmonic of a cw titanium:sapphire laser, the hyperfine structure (HFS) and isotope shift (IS) of three deep-UV transitions of neutral Yb have been measured for the first time. By exploiting the angular distribution of fluorescence radiation, accurate and complete results are obtained for the HFS and IS of the 398.8 nm transition of Yb. From the measured data, normal an...
