Surprisingly, the words “microbes” or “microorganism” are missing in this definition. The regulation of gut microbiota is mediated by an enormous quantity of aspects, such as microbiological factors, host characteristics, diet patterns, and environmental variables. Some protective, structural, and metabolic functions have been reported for gut microbiota, and these functions are related to the regulation of homeostasis and host health. Host defense against pathogens is, in part, mediated through gut microbiota action and requires intimate interpretation of the current microenvironment and discrimination between commensal and occasional bacteria. The present Special Issue provides a summary of the progress on the topic of intestinal microbiota and its important role in human health in different populations. This Special Issue will be of great interest from a clinical and public health perspective. Nevertheless, more studies with more samples and comparable methods are necessary to understand the actual function of intestinal microbiota in disease development and health maintenance.Research & information: generalbicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscsperm qualityprobioticszebrafishmotilitybehaviorintestinal microbiotaintestinal Bacteroidescardiorespiratory fitnesstrunk muscle trainingaerobic exercise trainingbrisk walkingnutrientsgut microbiotanutritionhabitual dietsWestern dietobesitycardiometabolic risk factorschronic health conditionsgastrointestinal disordersprebiotics and probioticsmetabolic syndromegastrointestinal microbiomeLactobacillus reuteri V3401sugar alcoholprebioticbowel functionimmune functionrespiratory tract infectionsotitis mediasinusitisweight managementsatietybone healthAMP-activated protein kinasebutyratedevelopmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD)high fat diethypertensionnutrient-sensing signalspropionateshort chain fatty acidskefirautism spectrum disordersoral microbiotadysbiosisco-occurring conditionsallergyabdominal painbiomarker discoveryanorexiafood restrictionClpBmicrobiotaEnterobacteriaceaeinulincircadian rhythmfeeding timingcholinetrimethylaminetrimethylamine n-oxide16S rRNA gene profilingqPCRlinear mixed modelssoy proteinlipid metabolismcircadianchrono-nutritionmicrobiomepregnancyfetusplacentanewborninfancycritical illnesssepsislipid metabolomeamlodipinecorticosteroneACTHgut bacteriomeischemia-reperfusion injurynutritional statussupplemented nutritionpartial hepatectomyliver transplantationvaginal microbiomebacterial communitiesvaginal dysbiosisbacterial vaginosisrisk factorshormone replacement therapycardiovascular diseasesatherosclerosisprebioticsalanine aminotransferaseantibioticOptifastgut microbiomemetronidazolenonnutritive sweetenerssweetening agentsResearch & information: generalBiology, life sciencesPlaza-Díaz Julioedt1303378Plaza-Díaz JulioothBOOK9910557484203321Nutrition, Microbiota and Noncommunicable Diseases3026968UNINA
