Application of prebiotics and probiotics in poultry production. (2003, background): “Recently, Hooper et al. (2001) have shown that cross-talk between Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and the epithelium results in epithelial secretion of specific glycans, which are utilized by the bacterium.”
Distinct signals from the microbiota promote different aspects of zebrafish gut differentiation. (2006, background): “, 2005), indicating that the microbiota play evolutionarily conserved roles in vertebrate gut development, as suggested by the similar transcriptional responses to the microbiota observed in GF zebrafish and mice (Hooper et al., 2001; Rawls et al., 2004).”
Effects of Gut Microbes on Nutrient Absorption and Energy Regulation (2012, background): “Monosaccharides are directly absorbed by the intestinal epithelium via monosaccharide transporters.(49,50) In a healthy individual consuming a typical Western diet, about 100–200 mM SCFAs are produced per day in the large intestine,(51,52) of which about 90%–95% are absorbed in the colon.”
Polysaccharide utilization by gut bacteria: potential for new insights from genomic analysis (2008, background): “and complex interactions with host cells and the host immune syste”
