🚀 Featured Publication - "Gut Microbiota Interactions in Multiple Sclerosis: The Role of SCFA-Producing Bacteria and Dietary Fiber" 👩🔬 First Author: Lucinda Toppen 👨🔬 Last Author: David Kleinschmidt 🗞 Full Publication: https://mtbln.co/gfdg1x Today’s featured publication sheds new light on how gut microbiome composition, particularly Short Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA)-producing bacteria, may influence autoimmune conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS). Using an experimental MS model, the study shows that colonization by certain gut bacteria, such as L. reuteri, can significantly reshape the gut microbiome, leading to a reduction in beneficial SCFA-producing species—crucial contributors to anti-inflammatory responses in the body. What’s interesting? The research demonstrates that restoring SCFA levels in MS may not only depend on dietary fiber but may also require targeted modulation of the microbiome itself. Findings like these broaden our biological understanding and advance our efforts to unravel the complexities of this multifaceted autoimmune disease. #Metabolomics #MicrobiomeResearch #AutoimmuneDisease #MultipleSclerosis #GutBrainAxis #Microbiota #ShortChainFattyAcids

🌿Metabolite of the month: 3-Indoleacetic Acid (3-IAA) 🌿 Ever wondered how a compound can bridge plant growth and human health? Meet 3-IAA, a fascinating metabolite with a history stretching from its first synthesis in 1925 to its recent identification as a key player in the AhR pathway in 2020. Initially celebrated for its role in plant biology, 3-IAA has revealed its broader significance as a microbial metabolite of tryptophan in mammals, impacting immune function, inflammation, and metabolic health. Its exploration has been propelled by omics technologies, highlighting its therapeutic potential for cancer and autoimmune diseases. The synthesis of 3-IAA from dietary tryptophan underscores the intricate dance between our diet, microbiome, and overall health. Present in various bodily fluids, 3-IAA's relationship with the gut microbiota showcases its potential as a disease biomarker, thanks to metabolomic insights. Read more about the multifaceted world of 3-IAA, a metabolite that exemplifies the interconnectedness of life and its potential to unlock new avenues in health and disease management: https://zurl.co/avB8 #metabolomics #loveyourmetabolites

#citation 🔬 Exciting insights into small intestinal physiology on 𝘾𝙀𝙇𝙇! Researchers from Zhejiang University have mapped the two-front nutrient supply environment, revealing how luminal dietary and microbial metabolites (enteral side) interact with systemic metabolites from the host (serosal side). Key findings include: ✅ 𝐍𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐃𝐲𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐬: Visualizing nutrient absorption and metabolic heterogeneity within the villi. ✅ 𝐆𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭: Glutamine from the enteral side supports mucus production, while the serosal side modulates the epithelial barrier. ✅ 𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐬: Skipping breakfast can increase metabolic disease risk by altering lipid absorption. This study enhances our understanding of the small intestine's complex regulatory mechanisms. Learn more about these findings and their implications for metabolic health!

Is the microbiome composition stable enough to indicate any potential clinical significance? According to critics of microbiome testing, the gut bacterial composition is so variable and affected by daily dietary changes and rhythmic fluctuations in hormones, neurotransmitters, etc., that it cannot be used for medical purposes. In fact, among the most interesting findings from Intus Bio's research is that individuals' microbiome tends to remain extremely stable over time unless significant variables, such as antibiotics or a profound change in diet and supplementation, are introduced. Our observations lead us to believe that there is a "core" microbiome that typifies each of us and can be exploited to measure only significant changes rather than insignificant fluctuations that may render the test unreliable. The graph below illustrates the microbiome profile of an individual over an 11-month period. It is intuitively understood that the overall composition and, more importantly, the relationships and proportions among the species remain virtually unchanged. The ability to reproduce comparable results requires accurate and reliable technology, as Intus Bio's patented assay and amplicon technology and proprietary AI analysis Titan-1TM enable.

Unlocking the Mysteries of Fasting: From Ancient Traditions to Modern Science This review examines the connections between fasting, nutrition, microbiome health, and genomic integrity. Fasting, an ancient practice with cultural and spiritual significance, has been shown to promote health and longevity. It induces autophagy, enhances mitochondrial function, and positively impacts gene expression. Fasting also shapes the gut microbiome, fostering beneficial microbes and reducing harmful ones, which improves immune function and metabolism. Moreover, fasting protects genomic integrity by activating cellular repair mechanisms, reducing the risk of age-related diseases. This interdisciplinary review highlights the potential of fasting as a dietary intervention to optimize healthspan and enhance quality of life. label : Fasting, Nutrition, Microbiome, Healthspan, Longevity, Genomic Integrity, Metabolic Health, Autophagy, Epigenetics, Dietary Interventions, Spiritual Practices, Wellness, Cellular Health, Molecular Biology, Interdisciplinary Research #Fasting #Nutrition #Microbiome #Healthspan #Longevity #GenomicIntegrity #MetabolicHealth #Autophagy #Epigenetics #DietaryInterventions #SpiritualPractices #Wellness #CellularHealth #MolecularBiology #InterdisciplinaryResearch #HealthScience #Wellbeing #Genetics #GutHealth #HealthyLiving https://lnkd.in/e7s_GTEy

Enterotypes are distinct clusters of microbial community composition found in human fecal microbiomes (>16K fecal metagenomes collected from 38 countries). The authors here show that quantifying the strength of enterotype classifications can serve as a measure of dysbiosis (Enterotype Dysbiosis Score). This follows the idea that healthy microbiomes show relatively lower inter-individual variations compared to diseased (dysbiotic) microbiomes. #GutMicrobiome #Dysbiosis #Eubiosis #MicrobiomeDataScience #GutHealth #AnnaKareninaPrinciple #Enterotypes #Bioinformatics #ComputationalBiology
