  1. 1. Assembly of Gut Microbial Communities in Freshwater Fish and Their Roles in Fish Condition

    Författare :Yinghua Zha; Richard Svanbäck; Eva Lindström; Peter Eklöv; Brendan Bohannan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; freshwater fish; gut microbial communities; predation stress; diet; fish condition; bacterial colonization; metacommunity theory; dispersal; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Sammanfattning : Animal hosts provide associated microorganisms with suitable ecological niches in their intestines. Microbes help their hosts to digest food, protect against pathogens, and influence the host’s metabolisms. Compositional variation of gut microbial communities is common among hosts, and may affect the health status of hosts. LÄS MER

  2. 2. In silico analysis of microbial communities through constraint-based metabolic modelling

    Författare :Parizad Babaei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fermented food production; metagenomics; genome-scale metabolic model; community modelling; malnourishment; Microbial community; systems biology; lactic acid bacteria; gut microbiota; uniform randomised sampling;

    Sammanfattning : Microbial communities are involved in many vital biological processes from elemental cycles to sustaining human health. The bacterial assemblages are remarkably under-studied as they are reluctant to grow in the laboratory conditions. LÄS MER

  3. 3. An insight towards food-related microbial sets through metabolic modelling and functional analysis

    Författare :Simonas Marcisauskas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RAVEN; gut; systems biology; comparative genomics; Kluyveromyces marxianus; bile acids; genome-scale metabolic model; next-generation sequencing; transcriptomics; thermotolerance;

    Sammanfattning : The dietary food digestion depends on the human gastrointestinal tract, where host cells and gut microbes mutually interact. This interplay may also mediate host metabolism, as shown by microbial-derived secondary bile acids, needed for receptor signalling. Microbes are also crucial in the production of fermented foods, such as wine and dairy. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Modeling human gut microbiota: from steady states to dynamic systems

    Författare :Hao Luo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dynamics.; metabolic modeling; genome-scale metabolic model; gut microbiota; cybernetic model;

    Sammanfattning : Human gut microbes are an essential part of human sub-microscopic systems and involved in many critical biological processes such as Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and osteoporosis. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Metabolic Modeling of the Gut Microbiome-Host Interactions and Meta’omics Integration

    Författare :Saeed Shoaie; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; meta’omics; complexity; obesity; network topology; Gut microbiome; genome-scale metabolic model; gene richness; CASINO; systems biology; flux balance analysis; diabetes;

    Sammanfattning : A large number of microbes with different strain types occupy the human gut. These gut inhabitant microbes have key roles in decomposition of indigestible dietary macronutrients before they are metabolised by the host. LÄS MER
