- Differences in Fecal Microbiota in Different European Study Populations in Relation to Age, Gender, and Country: a Cross-Sectional Study (2006, result): “This finding is also confirmed by our study in which we used a probe targeting the Faecalibacterium prausnitzii cluster, which comprises the species Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and closely related species (8, 33, 43).”
- Characterization of Bacterial Communities in Feces from Healthy Elderly Volunteers and Hospitalized Elderly Patients by Using Real-Time PCR and Effects of Antibiotic Treatment on the Fecal Microbiota (2004, background): “prausnitzii (11), one of the most abundant species in the colon, is an important producer of butyrate, a major product of carbohydrate fermentation which is implicated in providing protection against colorectal cancer (3, 39) and ulcerative colitis (5, 6).”
- Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii influence the production of mucus glycans and the development of goblet cells in the colonic epithelium of a gnotobiotic model rodent (2013, background): “praunistzii is an acetate consumer and a butyrate producer [5,6].”
- Faecalibacterium prausnitzii: from microbiology to diagnostics and prognostics (2017, background): “prausnitzii is extremely oxygen-sensitive (Duncan et al., 2002), but it is capable of withstanding low levels of oxygen found in the intestinal mucosa by using extracellular electron transfer in the presence of flavine and cysteine or glutathione (Khan et al.”
- Diversity, metabolism and microbial ecology of butyrate-producing bacteria from the human large intestine. (2009, background): “The ability to utilize long-chain inulin is found in Roseburia inulinivorans (Duncan et al., 2003, 2006) and F. prausnitzii (Duncan et al., 2002).”
- Towards the human intestinal microbiota phylogenetic core. (2009, background): “Originally described for its butyrate production (Duncan et al., 2002), its antiinflammatory properties have very recently been described (Sokol et al.”
- Effect of inulin on the human gut microbiota: stimulation of Bifidobacterium adolescentis and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (2008, background): “Several butyrate-producing bacteria can utilise inulin in vitro (11,12) and are therefore likely to be stimulated directly in the gut.”
- Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and human intestinal health. (2013, background): “prausnitzii is an extremely oxygen sensitive (EOS) bacterium and is difficult to cultivate even in anaerobic conditions [3].”
- The first 1000 cultured species of the human gastrointestinal microbiota (2014, background): “…be illustrated with Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, which is a Gram-negative-staining bacterium, previously classified within the Fusobacteria phylum (Duncan et al., 2002a), novel gastrointestinal isolates such as Christensenella minuta (Morotomi et al., 2012), but also typical Gram-negative…”
- Formation of propionate and butyrate by the human colonic microbiota. (2017, background): “Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, one of the most abundant species present in the healthy human microbiota, produces butyrate via butyryl-CoA:acetate CoA-transferase with net consumption of acetate, and acetate stimulates its growth on carbohydrate energy sources (Duncan et al., 2002).”
