Vitamin #D metabolites and the gut #microbiome in older men
https://2medical.news/2020/12/11/vitamin-d-metabolites-and-the-gut-microbiome-in-older-men/

The vitamin D receptor is highly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract where it transacts gene expression. With current limited understanding of the interactions between the gut microbiome and vitamin D, we conduct a cross-sectional analysis of 567 older men quantifying serum vitamin D metabolites using LC-MSMS and defining stool sub-Operational Taxonomic Units from16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing data. Faith’s Phylogenetic Diversity and non-redundant covariate analyses …
#Microbiome connections with host metabolism and habitual #diet from 1,098 deeply phenotyped individuals
https://2medical.news/2021/01/22/microbiome-connections-with-host-metabolism-and-habitual-diet-from-1098-deeply-phenotyped-individuals/

The gut microbiome is shaped by diet and influences host metabolism; however, these links are complex and can be unique to each individual. We performed deep metagenomic sequencing of 1,203 gut microbiomes from 1,098 individuals enrolled in the Personalised Responses to Dietary Composition Trial (PREDICT 1) study, whose detailed long-term diet information, as well as hundreds of fasting and same-meal postprandial cardiometabolic blood marker measurements …
High-#Fiber, Whole-Food Dietary Intervention Alters the Human Gut #Microbiome but Not Fecal Short-Chain Fatty Acids
https://2medical.news/2021/04/05/high-fiber-whole-food-dietary-intervention-alters-the-human-gut-microbiome-but-not-fecal-short-chain-fatty-acids/

Dietary shifts can have a direct impact on the gut microbiome by preferentially selecting for microbes capable of utilizing the various dietary nutrients. The intake of dietary fiber has decreased precipitously in the last century, while consumption of processed foods has increased. Fiber, or microbiota-accessible carbohydrates (MACs), persist in the digestive tract and can be metabolized by specific bacteria encoding fiber-degrading enzymes. The digestion of …
Long-term #dietary patterns are associated with pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory features of the gut #microbiome
https://2medical.news/2021/04/24/long-term-dietary-patterns-are-associated-with-pro-inflammatory-and-anti-inflammatory-features-of-the-gut-microbiome/

The microbiome directly affects the balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses in the gut. As microbes thrive on dietary substrates, the question arises whether we can nourish an anti-inflammatory gut ecosystem. We aim to unravel interactions between diet, gut microbiota and their functional ability to induce intestinal inflammation. Design We investigated the relation between 173 dietary factors and the microbiome of 1425 individuals spanning four …
