Melanoidins are the products of Maillard reaction between carbonyl and amino groups macromolecules readily formed in foods, especially during heat treatment. In this study we utilized three-stage Human Gut Simulator system to assess effect providing melanoidins extracted from either biscuits or bread crust human gut microbiota. Addition growth medium led statistically significant alterations microbial community composition, it increased short-chain fatty acid antioxidant production by The...
Peatlands store vast amounts of carbon, with deep peat carbon remaining stable due to limited thermodynamic energy and transport. However, climate change-induced increases in labile inputs could destabilize these stores. Here, we combined DNA isotope probing isotope-assisted metabolomics employing a multi-platform approach investigate microbial dynamics driving degradation upon (e.g., glucose) amendment. Our findings highlight the vulnerability as glucose addition triggers breakdown older...
Dietary consumption of green asparagus has been associated with several health benefits. These beneficial properties are attributed to the presence many bioactive compounds in asparagus, including saponins, phenolics, flavonoids, as well dietary fiber mostly comprising fructans and inulins, which prebiotics capable supporting growth members gut microbiota. In this study, we used vitro Human Gut Simulator system assess fermentation oro-gastro-intestinally digested powder by human Microbial...
Barrett's esophagus (BE) is the precursor lesion and a major risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Although patients with BE undergo routine endoscopic surveillance, current screening methodologies have proven ineffective at identifying individuals of EAC. Since microRNAs (miRNAs) potential diagnostic prognostic value as disease biomarkers, we sought to identify an miRNA signature EAC.High-throughput sequencing miRNAs was performed on serum tissue biopsies from 31 identified...
Eggplant, garlic, and onion were each fried, grilled, or roasted, subjected to an in vitro digestion-fermentation process. Vegetable type had the largest effect on gut microbiota structure. Oonion supported a more beneficial community.
Evidence indicates that both vitamin D and the gut microbiome are involved in process of colon carcinogenesis. However, it is unclear what effects supplemental
Pomegranate is a fruit that grows abundantly in the Middle East and Africa. It rich polyphenols, sugars, fiber, vitamins, has long been associated traditional alternative medicine with numerous health benefits, including treatment of diarrhea gut inflammation. We assessed how regular daily intake fresh pomegranate can affect distal microbiota young healthy female students Egypt, region abundant production frequent occurrence dysbiosis. Interrogation structure based on sequencing 16S...
Different modifications of the standard bread recipe have been proposed to improve its nutritional and health benefits. Here, we utilized in vitro Human Gut Simulator (HGS) assess fermentation one such artisan by human gut microbiota. Dried milled bread, composed almond flour, psyllium husks, flax seeds as three main ingredients, was first subjected an protocol designed mimic oro-gastro-intestinal digestion. The digest then supplied complex microbial communities, replacing typical Western...

In this study we assessed the extent to which diet quality and eating habits affected composition of distal gut microbiota.Twenty six adult subjects from low-income communities with a recently established food hub were recruited, their fecal microbiota was analyzed via interrogation 16S rRNA gene.Among dietary biometric parameters recorded for each subject, age statistically significant contributor variability.While healthy body mass indices had no direct correlation between themselves, they...
