Integrative Metagenomic Approaches to Study Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Microbial Functions in the Preterm Infant Gut Microbiome
… outcomes, particularly the survival of preterm infants. In neonatal intensive care units, antibiotics are frequently administered because these infants are at high risk of severe bacterial infections. However, early-life antibiotic exposure can alter the developing gut microbiome and promote the …

Human milk oligosaccharides: Maternal determinants and effects on infant gut microbiome, and infant cognitive and behavioral development during early life
Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2027-05-01

Prenatal stress, the placenta and maternal microbial transmission; implications for health and disease
… may mediate the impact of prenatal stress on infant development. However this has not yet been examined in a clinical population. We first utilized an in vitro placenta model, JEG-3 cells, to examine the effects of stress on the placental expression of HSD11B2. JEG-3 cells were cultured with …

Using high throughput data to understand microbes and their interaction with the environment
The human microbiome ecosystem plays numerous, yet poorly understood beneficial roles in human health. It can shape the immune response and provide essential vitamins and enzymes to the host. The different environments present in the human host are a major determinant of community composition. …

Phylogenetic and functional characterization of human microbiome intra-species diversity and tracking of early-life transmission
The human gut is colonized by a vast bacterial community that is currently rather well characterized at the species level. Yet, each of these species harbor a tremendous amount of individual genetic variations. Our understanding of the human gut microbiome, its dynamics, composition and impact on …

COMPARATIVE GENOMICS AND FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS OF BIFIDOBACTERIUM CARBOHYDRATE ACTIVE ENZYMES IN HUMAN MILK OLIGOSACCHARIDES UTILIZATION
The gut microbiota in early life influences host health and the risk of chronic diseases, including asthma. The infant gut microbiota composition is shaped by multiple determinants such as birth mode, breastmilk feeding practices, and the environment. Previous studies have identified specific taxa …

Exploring early-life microbiome transfer and therapeutic applications in bovines and humans
The microbiome consists of intricate microbial communities, including bacteria, archaea, eukarya, viruses, bacteriophages, and their associated products. These dynamic entities establish symbiotic relationships with their bovine and human hosts, exerting direct or indirect influences on physiology …

Bifidobacterial interactions with human milk oligosaccharides and their combined potential for the advancement of infant nutrition
… milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) in shaping the infant gut microbiota and in supporting immune health. HMOs are complex carbohydrates found at high concentrations in human breast milk, where they confer various critical functions. Despite their inability to directly provide calories or …
