Fecal samples were obtained from a cohort of 330 healthy Danish infants at 9, 18, and 36 months after birth, enabling characterization interbacterial relationships by use quantitative PCR targeting 31 selected bacterial 16S rRNA gene targets representing different phylogenetic levels. Nutritional parameters measures growth body composition determined investigated in relation to the observed development microbiota composition. We found that significant changes gut occurred, particularly age 9...

Abstract Breastfeeding profoundly shapes the infant gut microbiota, which is critical for early life immune development, and microbiota can impact host physiology in various ways, such as through production of metabolites. However, few breastmilk-dependent microbial metabolites mediating host–microbiota interactions are currently known. Here, we demonstrate that breastmilk-promoted Bifidobacterium species convert aromatic amino acids (tryptophan, phenylalanine tyrosine) into their respective...

The potential influence of maternal obesity on infant gut microbiota may occur either through vertically transmitted microbes or the dietary habits family. Recent studies have suggested that heritability partly be caused by transmission “obesogenic” microbes. However, findings presented here suggest per se does not affect overall composition and its development after introduction complementary foods. Rather, progression in feeding is found to major determinant for establishment. Expanding...

Abstract The effect of vitamin D supplementation on bone mineral augmentation in 212 adolescent girls with adequate calcium intake was studied a randomized placebo-controlled setting. Bone determined by DXA increased both the femur and lumbar vertebrae dose-responsive manner. Supplementation decreased urinary excretion resorption markers, but had no impact formation markers. Introduction: Adequate protects elderly against osteoporosis, there exists indisputable evidence that would benefit...

Background Low birth weight followed by accelerated gain during early childhood has been associated with adverse metabolic and cardiovascular outcomes later in life. The aim of this study was to examine the impact infant on glucose metabolism risk factors adolescence if effect differed between adolescents born small for gestational age (SGA) vs. appropriate (AGA). Methodology/Principal Findings Data from 30 SGA 57 AGA healthy young Danish were analysed. They had a mean 17.6 years all at...

The connections between gut microbiota, energy homeostasis, and inflammation its role in the pathogenesis of obesity-related disorders are increasingly recognized. We aimed to investigate effect probiotic strain Lactobacillus salivarius Ls-33 on a series biomarkers related metabolic syndrome (MS) adolescents with obesity.The study was double-blind placebo-controlled trial including 50 obesity randomized (10 CFU) or placebo daily for 12 weeks.The average body mass index-for-age z-score 2.6 ±...
