Diet-Microbiota Interactions Mediate Global Epigenetic Programming in Multiple Host Tis... - 0 views

  • SCFAs play a dual role both as substrates for metabolism and as signaling molecules
  • SCFAs can be either directly converted (acetate) or oxidized (propionate and butyrate) to acetyl-Co
  • Here we demonstrate that microbial colonization regulates global histone acetylation and methylation in multiple host tissues in a diet-dependent manner

  • complex functional interactions between diet, gut microbiota, and host health.

    diet changes gut microbiota, which changes genetic expression--it is called epigenetics.  This is an animal study.

    ADT therapy with abiraterone inhibits androgen production from both testicular and adrenal origins.  This study finds that a decrease in androgen production through ADT did not always equal a decrease in PSA, indicating other mechanisms of prostate cancer profession.

  • Concentrations of 109 to 1011 bacteria/g of contents are frequently found in human colon
  • more than 400 species have been identified
  • 95 to 99 percent belong to anaerobic genera such as Bacteroides, Bifidobacterium, Eubacterium, Peptostreptococcus, and Clostridium
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • hese genera proliferate, occupy most available niches, and produce metabolic waste products such as acetic, butyric, and lactic acids
  • Anaerobic bacteria can then deconjugate bile acids in this region and bind available vitamin B12 so that the vitamin and fats are malabsorbed

Metabolic Effects of Dietary Fiber Consumption and Prevention of Diabetes - 0 views

  • DF are highly complex substances that can be described as any nondigestible carbohydrates and lignins not degraded in the upper gut
  • Commonly, DF are classified according to their solubility in water, even though grading according to viscosity, gel-forming capabilities, or fermentation rate by the gut microbiota might be physiologically more relevant
  • Main sources of soluble DF are fruits and vegetables
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • n increased intake of total DF was inversely associated with markers of insulin resistance in several studies
  • consumption of insoluble DF increased whole body glucose disposal independent of changes in body weight in both short-term and more prolonged studies
  • Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate are produced by bacterial fermentation of indigestible DF polysaccharides in the colon
  • increased production of SCFA is assumed to be beneficial by reducing hepatic glucose output and improving lipid homeostasis
  • a high DF diet (oligofructose) reduced gram-negative bacterial content and body weight, whereas a high fat diet increased the proportion of a gram-negative bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) containing microbiota in humans
  • Prospective cohort studies indicate that diets high in insoluble cereal DF and whole grains might reduce diabetes risk
  • soluble DF (i.e., pectin, inulin, and β-glucans)
  • cereal DF (i.e., cellulose and hemicelluloses)
  •
