    Author : Louise K. J. Nilsson; Olle Terenius; Staffan Svärd; Sebastian Håkansson; Michael Strand; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microbiota; microbiome; vector-borne disease; 16S rRNA gene; amplicon sequencing; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Abstract : Every year, hundreds of thousands of people die from malaria. Malaria is a disease caused by parasites, which are spread by female vector mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles. Current control measures against malaria are based on drugs against the parasites and vector control using insecticides. READ MORE

  2. 2. Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases : studies of microbiota and its influence

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Inflammatory bowel disease; microscopic colitis; Crohn’s disease; ulcerative colitis; microbiota; microbiome; biological treatment;

    Abstract : Introduction: Inflammatory bowel diseases are becoming increasingly common. The underlying mechanisms are not entirely known but the gut microbiota seem to be involved in the pathogenesis. READ MORE

  3. 3. Development and dynamics of the normal gut microbiota

    Author : Lisa M. Olsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dynamics; ecology; gut microbiome; gut microbiota development; microbiota; richness; Prader-Willi Syndrome; stability; variation;

    Abstract : Altered gut microbiota configurations have been linked to human diseases. To identify mechanistic links between altered gut microbiota and disease states, definitions of the healthy gut microbiota need to be established. READ MORE

  4. 4. Exploring the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiota; Probiotics; Blood pressure; High fat diet; Oat; Green tea; Berry; Fiber; Exopolysaccharides; Ulcerative colitis;

    Abstract : Abstract: Balanced microbiota of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is important for maintaining health of the host. Altered gut microbiota have been found to be associated with various life-style induced and other intestinal inflammatory diseases. Gut microbiota is viewed as a metabolic organ and considered as new target for therapies. READ MORE

  5. 5. Gut microbiota in colorectal cancer : The importance of Parvimonas micra

    Abstract : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogenous disease consisting of multiple molecular subtypes, each of which has diverse treatment responses and prognoses. The importance of the gut microbiota in CRC development and progression has undergone increasing recognition in recent years, with a structural segregation in terms of microbial composition between CRC patients and healthy controls.
