Next generation sequencing technology: Advances and applications. (2014, background): “The microbiome of the human gut has been studied in great detail [45] including its relation with phenotypes like obesity [46].”
New evidences on the altered gut microbiota in autism spectrum disorders (2017, background): “Several inflammatory conditions have been related to an increase in the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) [34] and obesity [35].”
Minireview: Gut microbiota: the neglected endocrine organ. (2014, background): “The relevance of these preclinical findings to the clinical situation is probably best gauged from studies in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a functional GI disorder that has been linked to alterations in the gut microbiota (140).”
Interactions between gut microbiota and host metabolism predisposing to obesity and diabetes. (2011, background): “Importantly, the trait of obesity was transmissible along with the gut microbiota, as transplantation of the microbiota from obese mice to germ-free wild-type recipient mice caused a greater increase in adiposity than that caused by transplantation of a microbiota from conventionally raised lean wil”
