Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have the nickname 'forever chemicals' thanks to their persistence in the environment. While a handful of bacteria are known to mop up these ...

The Cambridge team tested 89 strains of bacteria, many of them commonly found in the human gut. They discovered that at least 38 could absorb significant amounts of PFAS, especially longer-chain types ...

It seems that when Bacteroides is exposed to AceCel, more carbohydrates are fermented in the gut and less is available for the liver to store as glycogen. As sugar levels are lowered, the body starts ...

A Baylor College study reveals that dairy consumption increases beneficial gut bacteria, while cheese reduces other key bacteria.

Acetate plus Bacteroides bacteria in the gut helps mice burn fat instead of carbs, mimicking keto effects and shrinking liver and fat mass. Credit: Shutterstock A team of Japanese researchers has ...

The top three enzymes are associated with Bacteroides uniformis, Eisenbergiella tayi, and Coprobacter fastidiosus, while the bottom three are linked to Ellagibacter isourolithinifaciens, ...

The intestinal microbiota influences many host biological processes, including metabolism, intestinal barrier functions, and immune responses in the gut and distant organs. Alterations in its ...

Collectively, unique bacterial signatures, including c-Bacteroides and c-Blautia, were associated with virological undetectability and fibrosis evolution during NAs therapy in chronic HBV, setting up ...

Both Blautia and Bacteroides uniformis reduced intestinal problems, and the Blautia had a corresponding effect on social behavior.

And among mice colonized with microbes from autistic people, a group called Bacteroides uniformis was more abundant in those whose colitis was less severe.

Researchers discovered significant differences in the gut microbiome of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) compared to neurotypical individuals, suggesting a potential link between gut ...

In this study, the investigators demonstrated that mice that carried Bacteroides gut microbes (and in particular: Bacteroides caccae, Bacteroides uniformis, and Bacteroides ovatus) had an increased ...
