Nutrient-specific proteomic analysis of the mucin degrading bacterium Akkermansia muciniphila

Ji-Young Lee et al.

Summary: Akkermansia muciniphila is a key player in regulating the human gut microbiota through mucin degradation. It mainly relies on the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway for energy production and short-chain fatty acid production through anaerobic fermentation under specific nutrient conditions. The bacterium has a diverse array of glycosyl hydrolases, peptidases, and sulfatases for breaking down O-glycosylated mucin, with specific mucin-degrading enzymes being highly abundant in mucin-supplemented media.

Alteration of Gut Microbiota in Alzheimer's Disease and Their Relation to the Cognitive Impairment

Eman M. Khedr et al.

Summary: This study found a dysbiosis of gut microbiota in Egyptian patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The abundance of Akkermansia, Enterobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Bacillus cereus, Prevotella, and Clostridium cluster IV was higher in AD patients compared to healthy controls, while the abundance of Bifidobacterium spp., Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria was lower in AD patients. The abundance of lactic acid bacteria and Prevotella was negatively correlated with cognitive impairment.

Mucolytic bacteria license pathobionts to acquire host-derived nutrients during dietary nutrient restriction

Kohei Sugihara et al.

Summary: Pathobiont AIEC can overcome dietary L-serine restriction and adapt to the gut by switching nutrient sources with the help of mucolytic bacteria, promoting the encroachment to the epithelial niche and acquiring L-serine from the colonic epithelium for proliferation.

Long Chain Fatty Acids and Virulence Repression in Intestinal Bacterial Pathogens

Mary K. Mitchell et al.

Summary: When bacterial pathogens enter the gut, they encounter a complex landscape of signaling molecules and metabolites that can impact their virulence. Long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) are major constituents of the gut metabolome and can act as allosteric inhibitors or modulate intracellular signaling networks to repress virulence in enteric pathogens. Recent studies have investigated the molecular mechanisms by which different LCFA derivatives modulate virulence, while also highlighting important gaps in understanding the roles of LCFAs as determinants of infection and disease.

Mucin-derivedO-glycans supplemented to diet mitigate diverse microbiota perturbations

K. M. Pruss et al.

Summary: Microbiota-accessible carbohydrates, such as mucin glycans extracted from porcine gastric mucin, have been found to play a potential role in shaping a healthy microbial community by aiding in microbiota recovery, suppressing harmful bacteria such as Clostridium difficile, delaying the onset of diet-induced obesity, and increasing the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila. Research suggests that these mucus glycans can serve as a novel class of prebiotic compounds to mitigate perturbations to the microbiota and provide benefits to host physiology.

Gut microbiota in human metabolic health and disease

Yong Fan et al.

Summary: The intestinal microbiota plays a significant role in human metabolic health, potentially contributing to the development of common metabolic disorders when dysregulated. Current research is shifting towards cause-and-effect studies and utilizing high-throughput human multi-omics data to identify potential molecular mechanisms behind these associations.

Amber Lockridge et al.

Summary: The study suggests that D-serine has acute antidiabetic effects in mice by potentiating insulin secretion. In vivo experiments showed that D-serine can enhance glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, dependent on the activation conditions of NMDAR.

Parvimonas micra, Peptostreptococcus stomatis, Fusobacterium nucleatum and Akkermansia muciniphila as a four-bacteria biomarker panel of colorectal cancer

Muhammad Afiq Osman et al.

Summary: Disruption of the gut microbiome is associated with colorectal cancer (CRC), and specific bacteria species like Parvimonas micra, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Peptostreptococcus stomatis, and Akkermansia muciniphila were found to be enriched in CRC patients compared to non-CRC controls. Further research is needed to understand the roles of these bacteria in CRC initiation and progression.

Mini Review: Bacterial Membrane Composition and Its Modulation in Response to Stress

Jessica R. Willdigg et al.

Summary: This review focuses on the stress responses triggered by antibiotics and other agents that disrupt the synthesis or integrity of the bacterial cell envelope, specifically looking at Bacillus subtilis. It highlights how altering the composition and properties of the membrane and its associated proteome can protect cells against various compounds and contribute to resistance, potentially playing a crucial role in the emergence of antibiotic resistance in clinical settings. The regulatory responses discussed in the review are broadly conserved, with the potential to vary in regulation details, but can still be significant in clinical contexts.

Akkermansia muciniphila Exerts Strain-Specific Effects on DSS-Induced Ulcerative Colitis in Mice

Qing Liu et al.

Summary: The study verified the significant protective effect of A. muciniphila strain FSDLZ36M5 against ulcerative colitis, while other strains showed no significant effects and even tended to exacerbate inflammation. Gut microbiota sequencing demonstrated that supplementation with FSDLZ36M5 restored the gut microbiota of mice to a similar state to that of the control group.
