- PREcisE’s goal is to use longitudinal data from the pre-conceptional period up until adulthood to explore the life-course and molecular pathways pertaining the mother to offspring transmissibility of impaired glycaemic health. The project harnesses very large data from cohorts/biobanks from Spain, Germany, Finland, France and the Netherlands. It also joins hands with related projects (e.g…
- The human gut microbiota has been linked with incidence and progression of noncommunicable diseases and their riskfactors. Moreover, diet has been identified as an important modulator of microbiota composition and function, but responsesvary across individuals.DiGuMet aimed to explore how gut microbiota interacts with diet and the role of such interactions for cardiometabolic diseaserisk and to…
- Early life is fundamental for brain and microbiota development. Gut microbiota influences brain function. Maternal obesity affects maturation of gut microbiota and is an important predictor of cognitive dysfunction in the offspring. Cognitive decline through life is an increasingly invalidating condition, due to population ageing and the high frequency of predisposing factors (obesity, unhealthy…
- The main objectives of the OCTOPUS project were:to determine, in mouse models, to what extent apoA-I/HDL modulate gut microbiota composition, intestinal homeostasis/immunity, plasma metabolome and atherosclerosis development.to determine whether apoA-I/HDL levels modulate gut microbiota composition and plasma metabolome in human cohorts, and to identify possible correlations between microbiota…
- 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…
- Genetic predisposition and general overnutrition are discussed as key factors in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however, alterations of intestinal microbiota composition and associated impairments of intestinal barrier function are thought to be critical in the onset and progression of NAFLD. Also studies suggest a pivotal role of bile acids and microbial bile acid…
- Man is colonized immediately upon birth by environmental microbes of primarily maternal origin. Initial colonization and transfer of maternal immunity through breastfeeding are believed to impact infant health at short- and long-term by conferring protection from infection and potentially resistance to metabolic and allergic diseases. Our objectives are to assess the importance of dietary habits…
- Main objectives/results:SA1- identification of effector proteinsEffector analysis and selection from genome sequenced reference strains:Identification of 77 genome sequenced reference strains for proteobacterial strains isolated from the human gut Application of Machine Learning tools for deeper T3SS screening -> 44 strains with 3000 effectors identified/selectedFunctional (relation to diet…
- Background and aimAccording to the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease hypothesis early life exposure to environmental factors plays a critical role in defining offspring health in childhood and later life. Thus adaptation to suboptimal nutrition during pregnancy or early childhood may perpetuate intergenerational transmission of a range of adverse health outcomes. Epigenetic phenomena…
