The Effect of Hydrated Sodium Calcium Aluminosilicate on Fatty Liver and the Composition of the Intestinal Microbiota in Overfed Landes Geese

ABSTRACT Goose fatty liver is a delicious food product and the overfeeding will cause the abnormal physiology of the geese. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of supplementation with hydrated sodium calcium aluminosil...

Feeding Pasteurized Waste Milk to Preweaned Dairy Calves Changes Fecal and Upper Respiratory Tract Microbiota

In the present study bacterial communities from both, the gastrointestinal and respiratory tract of pre-weaned dairy calves fed two different milk-feeding programs were characterized using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Twenty female Holstein ca...

The Effects of Deoxynivalenol on the Ultrastructure of the <i>Sacculus Rotundus</i> and <i>Vermiform Appendix</i>, as Well as the Intestinal Microbiota of Weaned Rabbits

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin found in grains that poses a potential threat to human and animal health, and the gastrointestinal tract is the primary target organ. There are few studies focused on the toxicology of DON to rabbits, esp...

Dietary Fat Sources Affect Hepatic Health, Performance and Gut Microbiota Composition in Laying Hens as Model

ABSTRACT Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a growing concern in both human and animal health, with nutritional strategies playing a key role in its management. This study used a laying hen model to evaluate the effects of two hig...

Masterbatch-enabled acceleration of polyolefin biodegradation under open air terrestrial environmental conditions

Abstract Polyolefins, commonly used in packaging and single-use products, are notoriously persistent in the environment, contributing significantly to environmental pollution. In scientific literature to date, polyolefins have not been repo...

Bacteriophage: A Useful Tool for Studying Gut Bacteria Function of Housefly Larvae, Musca domestica

ABSTRACT Beneficial symbiotic bacteria have positive effects on some insects’ (such as mosquitoes, cockroaches, and flies) biological activities. However, the effects of a lack of one specific symbiotic bacterium on the life activities of s...

Corrigendum: The Potential Roles of Very Low Calorie, Very Low Calorie Ketogenic Diets and Very Low Carbohydrate Diets on the Gut Microbiota Composition

Alterations in the gut microbiota and its metabolites contribute to metabolic maladaptation in dairy cows during the development of hyperketonemia

ABSTRACTMetabolic maladaptation in dairy cows after calving can lead to long-term elevation of ketones, such as β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), representing the condition known as hyperketonemia, which greatly influences the health and production ...

Exploring the Intestinal Microbiota and Metabolome Profiles Associated With Feed Efficiency in Pacific Abalone (Haliotis discus hannai)

Feed efficiency (FE) is critical to the economic and environmental benefits of aquaculture. Both the intestines and intestinal microbiota play a key role in energy acquisition and influence FE. In the current research, intestinal microbiota...

Berberine protects against hypoxia-induced intestinal injury through modulation of gut microbiota and bile acid metabolism

BackgroundHigh-altitude hypoxia disrupts intestinal homeostasis by impairing the epithelial barrier, triggering inflammation, and promoting microbial translocation. Berberine (BER), a natural isoquinoline alkaloid with antimicrobial and ant...

Alleviating D-Galactose-Induced Aging in Mice by Modulating Gut-Liver Axis Using <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> TY-Y10

Oxidative stress is closely linked to aging. Probiotics, whether viable or heat-inactivated, have shown antioxidant properties; however, their effect and mechanism of action in reducing oxidative stress during aging remains underexplored. T...

Combination of Antimicrobial Starters for Feed Fermentation: Influence on Piglet Feces Microbiota and Health and Growth Performance, Including Mycotoxin Biotransformation in vivo

The aim of this study was to apply a combination of the microbial starters Lactobacillus uvarum LUHS245, Lactobacillus casei LUHS210, Pediococcus acidilactici LUHS29, and Pediococcus pentosaceus LUHS183 for feed fermentation and to evaluate...

Correction: Aging, the microbiota–gut–brain axis, and late-life epilepsy: a hypothesis-driven review

The change of gut microbiota in MDD patients under SSRIs treatment

Abstract The alterations in the gut microbiota have been reported to be correlated with the development of depression. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of intestinal microbiota in depressed patients after antidepress...

Gut Microbiota and Metabolome Description of Antibiotic-Treated Neonates From Parturients With Intrauterine Infection

Intrauterine infection is linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women. Neonates from parturients with intrauterine infection are usually treated with antibiotics, but their gut microbiota and metabolome are seldom studied. In thi...

Soil Geochemical Properties Influencing the Diversity of Bacteria and Archaea in Soils of the Kitezh Lake Area, Antarctica

It is believed that polar regions are influenced by global warming more significantly, and because polar regions are less affected by human activities, they have certain reference values for future predictions. This study aimed to investiga...

The Rising Era of &ldquo;Immunoporosis&rdquo;: Role of Immune System in the Pathophysiology of Osteoporosis

Dietary nutrition, intestinal microbiota dysbiosis and post-weaning diarrhea in piglets

Weaning is a critical transitional point in the life cycle of piglets. Early weaning can lead to post-weaning syndrome, destroy the intestinal barrier function and microbiota homeostasis, cause diarrhea and threaten the health of piglets. T...

The Holo-Transcriptome of the Zoantharian Protopalythoa variabilis (Cnidaria: Anthozoa): A Plentiful Source of Enzymes for Potential Application in Green Chemistry, Industrial and Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

Marine invertebrates, such as sponges, tunicates and cnidarians (zoantharians and scleractinian corals), form functional assemblages, known as holobionts, with numerous microbes. This type of species-specific symbiotic association can be a ...

Flavanol-Rich Cocoa Supplementation Inhibits Mitochondrial Biogenesis Triggered by Exercise

The potential role of cocoa supplementation in an exercise context remains unclear. We describe the effects of flavanol-rich cocoa supplementation during training on exercise performance and mitochondrial biogenesis. Forty-two male enduranc...
