- Background and aimThe aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a transcription factor recently shown to be crucial for the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis, however its precise gut luminal activators and functional consequences are unknown. Activators originate from (i) the diet, such as indole-3-carbinol from cruciferous vegetables, (ii) the microbiota, (iii) lactic acid bacteria, used in food or…
- Background and aim:Studies suggest that the intestinal microbiome modulates the risk of several chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, allergy, cardiovascular disease, and colorectal cancer (CRC). Dietary factors are related to chronic disease risk, and they have been suggested to modulate the composition and function of the gut microbiome. However, detailed knowledge on the relationship of…
- The aim of Meatic project is to understand the role of the gut microbiome as determinant of the effect of diet on colorectal cancer risk and to identify specific associated microbiome profiles. We compared in humans (WP1) and experimental animals (WP2-WP3-WP4), a high-risk meat-based diet (MBD) with a pesco-vegetarian diet (PVD) associated with a lower CRC risk and a MBD diet medium risk…
- Microbial colonization of the new-born is essential for the development of the physiological homeostasis of the host. Perturbations of early-life colonization may have long-lasting effects on host health; specific alterations seem to precede the development of disease, including both communicable and non-communicable diseases. Thus, early microbiota establishment has a profound effect on long-term…
- Background and aimThe FiberTAG project has established a set of biomarkers linking dietary fiber (DF) intake and gut microbiota-related health effect. We aim at refining the concept of DF based on novel biological effects that can occur upon gut microbiota-nutrients interaction by using existing cohorts and by developing innovative approaches to evaluate the health interest of novel insoluble DF…
- Coronary atherosclerosis is a leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide. Continuous efforts are needed to improve secondary prevention and understand the mechanism underlying disease progression. Based on primary prevention trials, a potential benefit of the Mediterranean diet after an acute coronary syndrome can be anticipated. The integrated microbiome-mediated/immunologic and…
- Nutrition and aryl hydrocarbon receptoractivation in mesenteric adipose tissueinflammation and intestinal surgical site Image AbstractObesity and sedentary lifestyles are facing society with an increasing burden of affiliated health problems such as metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes…
- Obesity promotes Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Diseases (NAFLD) through mechanisms involving the gut microbiota. From 2 cohorts of obese women (FLORINASH FP7), in which a multilevel omics approach was used, we identified a microbiome architecture indicating increased dietary lipids processing. This was associated with hepatic insulin signaling perturbations, a transcriptomic profile indicative of…
- An increased intestinal permeability (IP), also known as leaky gut, could be responsible for activation of the immune system and inflammation, a common mechanism in many chronic age-related diseases. The MaPLE project tested the hypothesis that an increased intake of polyphenol-rich foods can reduce IP and the quantity of inflammogenic bacterial factors in the bloodstream, promoting a protective…
