Comment | The scientists from European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and the MetaHIT Consortium analyzed the gut microbiota of individuals from different countries and regions and divided the gut microbiota into three predominant enterotypes, respectively dominated by Bacteroides, Prevotella and Ruminococcus genus. Bacteroides enterotype mainly contains species good at ferment carbohydrates and protein. Prevotella enterotype mainly comprises species able to degrade plant polysaccharides and mucin glycoproteins present in the mucosal layer of the gut and interacts with immune system. Ruminococcus enterotype is enriched in species which is able to degrade mucins and helps cells to uptake sugars. Bacteroides enterotype is strongly associated with excessive intake of protein and animal fat and Prevotella enterotype is strongly associated with carbohydrates. |

Comment | People who daily drank three to five cups of coffee at midlife showed an unbelievable 65% decreased risk of AD in comparison to people who did not drink or drank less than two cups per day. Coffee is rich in antioxidant polyphenols which can reduce oxidative stress induced brain injuries and lower the risk of AD. The effect of coffee may occur at the level of the gut microbiota. Firstly, gut microbiota can easily digest the fiber in coffee beans and harvest its energy to help their own growth. Simultaneously, they can reduce the ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes bacteria and this alteration in Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratio is associated with reduced inflammation. Secondly, the capacity of body to utilize coffee polyphenols is also influenced by gut microbiota in a large extent. After consumption, polyphenols need to be degrade by gut microbiota into small molecules that are easily absorbed by human body. |

Reconstruction of the gut microbiota in GF mice decreased BBB permeability and up-regulated the expression of tight junction proteins. |

Comment | In healthy condition, the LPS is blocked from the bloodstream by the tight junctions that exist between the intestinal epithelial cells. The levels of LPS in the blood represent not only inflammation but also leaky gut. Studies found that the plasma levels of LPS in patients with AD were three times higher than healthy controls. |

Comment | Gram-positive Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium in the gut, such as Lactobacillus brevis and Bifidobacterium dentium, are able to produce gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by metabolizing glutamate. The increase of GABA in the gastrointestinal tract is correlated with the increase of GABA in CNS. Gut microbiota disruption, especially the reduction of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, will influence the production of GABA in the gut and then lead to reduction of GABA in CNS. |

Comment | Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is very important in regulating cognitive function. More than 95% of the 5-HT are synthesized in the gut, and gut microbiota plays an important role in the synthesis of 5-HT. The content of 5-HT in the blood of GF mice was about 60% lower than that of the SPF mice with a normal gut microbiota, and the concentration was significantly increased when the gut microbiota was reconstructed in GF mice. |

Comment | Different bacterial structure determines the difference of human biochemistry, genetic individuality and resistance to diseases. Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes are two dominant bacterial phylum in the gut, with Proteobacteria, Verrucomicrobiota, Fusobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Actinbacteria, Spirochetes, and so on as the remainder. The gut microbiota encode about 4,000,000 genes, making the human genetic complexity closer to 4,026,600 genes when plus the 26,600 host genes, which far more than rice and other species. |
