Methylococcus capsulatus bath {51111181} Record Keys Definition:Methylococcus capsulatus bath Queue:[ ] Details Initialisation date:[ ] Specification: [ ] Meta Information Type:[ ] Host:[ ] Zone:[ ] Notes: [ ]Shared Reference Notes [1.1] - Exchanging the protein source in a high fat, high sugar, westernized diet from casein to whole-cell lysates of the non-commensal bacterium Methylococcus capsulatus Bath is sufficient to reverse western diet-induced changes in the gut microbiota to a state resembling that of lean, low fat diet-fed mice, both under mild thermal stress (T22 °C) and at thermoneutrality (T30 °C). - Concomitant with microbiota changes, mice fed the Methylococcus-based western diet exhibit improved glucose regulation, reduced body and liver fat, and diminished hepatic immune infiltration. Intake of the Methylococcu-based diet markedly boosts Parabacteroides abundances in a manner depending on adaptive immunity, and upregulates triple positive (Foxp3+RORγt+IL-17+) regulatory T cells in the small and large intestine.References Notes[ ]
