Effects of Functional Oligosaccharides Extracted from Straw on the Growth, Feeding, Physiology, Histology, Muscle Texture, and Gut Microbiota of Micropterus salmoides by Benli Wu, Long Huang, Cangcang Wu, Jing Chen, Xiajun Chen, Xiang Wang, Kai Cui, Zhigang Liu, Jixiang He

“…High oligosaccharide levels, such as 2.0 mg/kg, decreased the LZM level, while there were no significant differences in the SOD and MDA levels. Gut microbiome analysis revealed no significant differences in richness and diversity for groups fed the functional oligosaccharide gradient; however, the PCoA results showed that the microbial community composition changed markedly in response to different addition levels, and the 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg supplementation groups were far apart from the lower and higher supplementation groups. …”

New insights into microbial bile salt hydrolases: from physiological roles to potential applications by Zixing Dong, Shuangshuang Yang, Cunduo Tang, Dandan Li, Dandan Li, Yunchao Kan, Yunchao Kan, Lunguang Yao, Lunguang Yao

“…Bile acids (BAs), the major components of bile, are bidirectionally linked to intestinal microbiota, also known as the gut microbiome-BA metabolic axis. Gut microbiota-derived bile salt hydrolase (BSH, EC 3.5.1.24), which catalyzes the “gateway” reaction in a wider pathway of bile acid modification, not only shapes the bile acid landscape, but also modulates the crosstalk between gut microbiota and host health. …”
