Metabolism of host-derived carbohydrates by Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003
… tract of certain mammals, birds and insects. Bifidobacterium breve strains are numerically prevalent among the gut microbiota of many healthy breast-fed infants. The prototypical B. breve strain UCC2003 has previously been shown to utilise numerous carbohydrates of plant origin. Various …

Metabolism of human milk oligosaccharides by infant-associated bifidobacteria
… number of infant-associated species, including Bifidobacterium breve, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium kashiwanohense. A key adaptation, facilitating the establishment and dominance of these species in the breastfed infant gut microbiota, is the …

Comparative genomics of Bifidobacteria
… genomes from various species of the genus Bifidobacterium, and the determination of their open pan-genome trend. This analysis first determined the total number of genes to be considered as the reservoir of functions available to representatives of this genus. Many identified genes are …

Antibiotic resistance in the gut microbiota
… of Proteobacteria and decreased proportions of Bifidobacterium. The species diversity of bifidobacteria was also reduced. This thesis also highlights the ability of the human gut microbiota to act as an antibiotic resistance reservoir. Using metagenomic DNA extracted from faecal samples from …

Characterization of the vaginal microbiome in pregnancy
… "atypical" microbiomes in healthy women, such as Bifidobacterium-dominated, has been gradually increasing. Although bifidobacteria play an important role in gut health, vaginal bifidobacteria have not yet been fully characterized. In this study, a baseline description of the "healthy" vaginal …

Growth and Viability of Bifidobacterium Bifidum in Cheddar Cheese
… them the present classification under the genus Bifidobacterium with 11 species. The 1986 edition of the manual has 24 species listed under bifidobacteria. Interest in this genus grew after it was proposed by Tissier that it could be beneficial to health and even have therapeutic values. …

Probiotic Modulation of Mucosal Immune Responses in an In Vitro Co-Culture Model
… bacteria and their secreted proteins (SP) of Bifidobacterium breve (BB), Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LR), L. salivarius (LS), L. plantarum (LP), L. ferrmentum (LF), and L. casei strain Shirota (LcS) on cytokine production and TLR expression in monocultures of monocytes, macrophage subsets, and …

Exploring glucagon-like peptide 1-secreting L-cells as signal transducers in the microbiota-gut-brain signalling pathways
… As such, bacterial producers of CLA such as Bifidobacterium breve NCFB 2258 have been investigated for their numerous health benefits. L-cells are located at the intersection of the gut barrier, and the host endocrine and neural systems. As such, these cells may act as signal transducing …

Investigation of mechanisms underpinning host-microbial interactions in the gastrointestinal tract
… commensal bacteria Lactobacillus salivarius and Bifidobacterium breve. L. salivarius induced macrophage cytokine responses that were TLR2 independent but MyD88 and Clec4e receptor dependent unlike B. breve responses which were completely TLR2 dependent. Thus pattern recognition receptors may …

Nutritional factors influencing tissue omega-3 metabolism and endocannabinoids levels in experimental models and humans
… in the diet or produced by the probiotic Bifidobacterium breve (B. breve), in influencing n-3 PUFA metabolism to optimize the n-3 HUFA score (a biomarker of n-3 status in tissues) and possible interactions with the ECS in rodents and humans. We evaluated whether CLA, from different dietary …

Bifidobacterial interactions with human milk oligosaccharides and their combined potential for the advancement of infant nutrition
… distinct commericial bifidobacterial strains: Bifidobacterium bifidum R0071, Bifidobacterium longum subsp infantis R0033, Bifidobacterium breve M-16V, and Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis M-63 in the presence of HMOs. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and metabolomic analyses …
