Characterizing the mucin-degrading capacity of the human gut microbiota

Janiece S. Glover et al.

Summary: This study systematically examined the mucin-degrading profiles of the human gut microbiota and found multiple microbial species in different phyla with mucin-degrading capability. The findings greatly expand our knowledge of microbial-mediated mucin degradation within the human gut microbiota.

Strongyloides stercoralis: A Neglected but Fatal Parasite

Viravarn Luvira et al.

Summary: Strongyloidiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by Strongyloides stercoralis, presenting wide-ranging clinical manifestations and lacking practical high sensitivity diagnostic tests. Immunocompromised hosts may experience fatal outcomes. The global impact of strongyloidiasis has been amplified due to migration, globalization, and increased use of immunomodulators, especially during the COVID-19 era. Despite challenging diagnosis, treatment is simple with the administration of single dosage ivermectin or moxidectin.

Author Response: Association of Fecal and Plasma Levels of Short-Chain Fatty Acids With Gut Microbiota and Clinical Severity in Patients With Parkinson Disease

Chin-Hsien Lin et al.

Summary: The researchers express gratitude for the comment on their study. They have found that butyrate in the intestine can stimulate the colonization of curli-producing Escherichia coli. These curli are related to pathologic human amyloids and may exacerbate gut and neuropathology of Parkinson's disease (PD). Additionally, other members of the microbiome capable of producing functional amyloids have been found to be correlated with PD.

Alterations of gut microbial pathways and virulence factors in hemodialysis patients

Xiaochun Shi et al.

Summary: Alterations in gut microbiota in hemodialysis patients contribute to uremic toxicity and immune dysregulation, leading to higher infection risk and mortality. The study found significant changes in microbial species, metabolic pathways, antibiotic resistance, and virulence factors in hemodialysis patients compared to controls, indicating the importance of understanding virulence factors in predisposing HD patients to infection and developing targeted treatment strategies.

Investigation of gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acids in Strongyloides stercoralis-infected patients in a rural community

Hai Thi Nguyen et al.

Summary: This study aims to explore the interaction between Strongyloides stercoralis infection, human gut microbiota, and serum short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). The results showed that individuals infected with this parasite exhibited increased bacterial diversity in the gut microbiota and a significant decrease in acetic acid.

Strongyloides stercoralis Infestation in a Child: How a Nematode Can Affect Gut Microbiota

Stefania Pane et al.

Summary: This study investigated the gut microbiota of a pediatric case of strongyloidiasis, revealing an increase in microbial diversity during infection and one month post-infection, followed by a decrease two months post-infection. Functional prediction highlighted an enrichment of microbial glycan and carbohydrate metabolisms in the infected sample compared to healthy controls.

Field evaluation of the gut microbiome composition of pre-school and school-aged children in Tha Song Yang, Thailand, following oral MDA for STH infections

Katharina Stracke et al.

Summary: Soil-transmitted helminth infections have a significant negative impact on global population health, especially affecting children disproportionately. The lack of infection prevalence data in many endemic regions highlights the importance of molecular tools for establishing accurate epidemiological profiles. The gut microbiota can be influenced by medication, lifestyle factors, and co-inhabitation with parasites, but baseline studies in this area are limited.
