2. 1. Faecal Microbiota Transfer in Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Collagenous Colitis : Clinical outcomes and host-microbe interactions

   Author : Savanne Holster; Robert Jan Brummer; Julia König; Andreas Munk Petersen; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Faecal microbiota transfer; irritable bowel syndrome; collagenous colitis; gut microbiota; visceral sensitivity; host-microbe interactions; gene expression; metabolites;

   Abstract : Faecal microbiota transfer (FMT) aims at restoring a disturbed gut microbiotaby introducing faecal material from a healthy donor into a patient’s intestine. This approach is known as a safe and effective treatment in patients with recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection. READ MORE

4. 2. Evolutionary genomics of host-microbe interactions

   Author : Elin Videvall; MEMEG; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; host; microbiota; avian malaria; ostrich; parasite; dual RNA-seq;

   Abstract : The microbes living inside hosts have highly important consequences for host health and fitness. From the host’s perspective, some microbes exhibit mutualistic tendencies, others parasitic, and some commensal, but this is context-dependent and opportunistic lifestyles are widespread in nature.

5. 3. Host-microbe interactions in coxsackievirus infection : focus on innate immunity

   Author : Michael Hühn; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Coxsackievirus group B (CVB) is a common virus that usually causes only mild symptoms in humans. However, occasionally these infections result in severe diseases like meningitis, myocarditis and pancreatitis. READ MORE

6. 4. Host-microbe interactions : gut microbiota and its effects on developmental programming of the brain, placenta and testis

   Author : Maha Al-Asmakh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Reproduction of a mammalian organism involves inherited genetic programming and environmental factors that collectively shape organ development and function in the new offspring. One such factor are the indigenous microbiota and their interactions with the host. READ MORE

7. 5. Metagenomic Characterization of the Gut Microbiome in Cohorts of Elderly

   Author : Sukithar K Rajan; Dirk Repsilber; Carl Mårten Lindqvist; Robert Jan Brummer; Lars-Gustav Snipen; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gut microbiota; metagenomics; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; reference sequence database; methods validation; microbial function; host-microbe interaction;

   Abstract : Human gut microbiota plays a vital role in maintaining host health. This thesis aims to investigate the gut microbial population and function using next generation sequencing (NGS) data from faecal samples. Paper I examines the influence of sequencing depth and analysis methods in microbiota profiling using NGS whole genome sequencing (WGS) data. READ MORE
