By establishing a model of enteritis in mice infected with Salmonella Typhimurium, this study investigates the effects of ion concentration in drinking water on intestinal metabolites and microbiota structure in mice, as well as its influence on pathogen susceptibility and the host-patho...
Background
Antibiotic treatment has a well-established detrimental effect on the gut bacterial composition, but effects on the fungal community are less clear. Bacteria in the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract may limit fungal colonization and invasion. Antibiotic drugs t...
The communities of marine bacteria that assemble around living microphytoplankton are predictably dominated by three taxonomic groups, each of which specializes in the use or transport of different components of the available metabolite pool: Rhodobacterales transport small and polar metabolites,...
