Clostridium celatum [ce.la'tum. L. adj. celatum hidden] has been known since 1974, when it was isolated from human feces. In 40 years, no association with human infection has been reported. In this work, we present two serious cases of infection with the anaerobic Gram-positive rod Clostridium celatum.

Background: Changes in neuroinflammatory tone have been shown to modulate neuroimmune responses to Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and shape disease outcomes, however, extrinsic factors that modify neuroimmune activation remain poorly understood. The gut microbiome is one such factor, with the ability to shape peripheral and central immune activation, as well as AD pathologies. AD patients display unique changes in microbiome composition, however, the link between specific AD-associated gut bacteria, neuroinflammatory tone, and AD outcomes remains to be elucidated.

Celiac disease is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of the small bowel, and about 1% of the world's population is afflicted with celiac disease. To date, the most efficient treatment option is that the patient is required to strictly follow a gluten-free diet for their entire life, but it's difficult to adhere to and can lead to new nutritional imbalances, making it urgent to find novel nutritional interventions. Our aim was to explore the effects of nutritional intervention with quercetin on the celiac toxic effects of wheat gluten.

Obesity is associated with alterations in lipid metabolism and gut microbiota dysbiosis. This study investigated the effects of puerarin, a bioactive isoflavone, on lipid metabolism disorders and gut microbiota in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice. Supplementation with puerarin reduced plasma alanine aminotransferase, liver triglyceride, liver free fatty acid (FFA), and improved gut microbiota dysbiosis in obese mice.

Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on three bacterial strains (WC0700, WC0709, WC0705) that were isolated from mucin-enriched fecal samples and can utilize mucin as their only carbon and nitrogen source, highlighting their unique metabolic capabilities.
- - Genomic and functional analyses revealed that WC0700 has the most glycosyl hydrolases for mucin degradation, while WC0705 has the fewest, and all strains produced various short-chain fatty acids (with acetic acid being the primary metabolite) when fed mucin-derived monosaccharides.
- - The research also examined additional traits like antibiotic resistance, biofilm formation, and potential pathogenicity, emphasizing the safety of these strains and suggesting further exploration

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether dietary supplementation with an innovative silage (IS) created using 60% olive mill waste, 20% grape pomace, and 20% deproteinised feta cheese waste solids can modulate the composition of the intestinal microbiota in weaned (Exp. 1) and finishing (Exp. 2) pigs.
