The gut microbiota plays an important role in cardio-metabolic diseases with diet being
among the strongest modulators of gut microbiota composition and function. Resistant …

Fecal microbial community changes are associated with numerous disease states, including
cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, such data are merely associative. A causal …

The gut microbiota has a critical role in the maintenance of immune homeostasis. Alterations

Abstract Background Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a small molecule produced by the
metaorganismal metabolism of dietary choline, has been implicated in human disease …

Background Acetate is a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) produced by gut bacteria, which has
been implicated in cardio-metabolic health. Here we examine the relationships of circulating …

Background Gut microbial metabolites have been implicated as novel risk factors for

Although diet has long been known to contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular
disease (CVD), research over the past decade has revealed an unexpected interplay …

The gut microbiota is a highly complex community which evolves and adapts to its host over
a lifetime. It has been described as a virtual organ owing to the myriad of functions it …
