Although immune mechanisms have been described for Peyer’s patch function, in discriminating food nutrients and commensal microflora from pathogenic challenge, an understanding of gene expression patterns associated with normal intestinal homeostasis is lacking. The effects of commensal bacterial co...

Plant fibers in byproduct streams produced by non-harsh food processing methods represent biorepositories of diverse, naturally occurring, and physiologically active biomolecules. To demonstrate one approach for their characterization, mass spectrometry of intestinal contents from gnotobiotic mice, ...
Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with development of gastric adenocarcinoma in a subset of infected humans, especially those that develop an antecedent condition, chronic atrophic gastritis (ChAG) characterized by loss of acid-producing parietal cells. Studies in a gnotobiotic transgenic ...
Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is characterized by deregulation of MYC, but the contribution of other genetic mutations to the disease is largely unknown. We sequenced exomes of 59 BL tumors, 14 of which had paired normal tissue. Our work elucidates commonly occurring gene-coding mutations in Burki...
