Diet leaves a genetic signature in a keystone member of the gut microbiota

Tanja Dapa et al.

Summary: Switching from a low-fat and high-fiber diet to a Western-style high-fat and high-sugar diet can cause imbalances in the gut microbiota, leading to various pathological conditions. This study investigated the mutations in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron in the gut under different dietary regimens and found that periodic dietary changes caused fluctuations in mutation frequency, accompanied by metabolic shifts.

In vivo commensal control of Clostridioides difficile virulence

Brintha P. Girinathan et al.

Summary: Different species of Clostridia can protect against or worsen Clostridioides difficile infection in mice by modulating the pathogen's colonization, growth, and virulence through altering the gut-nutrient environment. This research lays the groundwork for mechanistically informed therapies to counter C. difficile disease using systems biology approaches to define host-commensal-pathogen interactions in vivo.

Amino Acid-Based Diet Prevents Lethal Infectious Diarrhea by Maintaining Body Water Balance in a Murine Citrobacter rodentium Infection Model

Tatsuki Kimizuka et al.

Summary: The study showed that an amino acid-based diet protected mice from enteric pathogen infection by preventing dehydration caused by diarrhea, altering amino acid levels in the plasma and feces as well as changing gut microbiota composition.

KEGG: integrating viruses and cellular organisms

Minoru Kanehisa et al.

Summary: KEGG is a curated resource integrating eighteen databases categorized into systems, genomic, chemical and health information, providing mapping tools for understanding cellular and organism-level functions from genome sequences and other molecular datasets. The network variation maps in the KEGG database show how different pathogens and environmental factors influence cellular signaling pathways.
