Details about Bacteroidota: NCBI 976, gram-negative or unknown

  1. Digestive Function:

    • Bacteroidetes play a crucial role in the breakdown of complex carbohydrates and dietary fibers in the gut. They are known for their ability to ferment these substrates, producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as byproducts. SCFAs, such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate, are important for maintaining gut health and have various beneficial effects on the host.

  2. Metabolism:

    • The composition of the gut microbiota, including the abundance of Bacteroidetes, has been linked to metabolic health. Some studies suggest that a balanced ratio of Bacteroidetes to Firmicutes (another major phylum in the gut) is associated with a healthier metabolic profile. Changes in this ratio have been observed in conditions like obesity.

  3. Immune System Regulation:

    • Bacteroidetes are involved in interactions with the host's immune system. Some species have been associated with immune system modulation, helping to maintain a balanced and appropriate immune response. Proper immune regulation is crucial for preventing inflammation and autoimmune reactions.

  4. Protection Against Pathogens:

    • Bacteroidetes can contribute to the defense against potentially harmful pathogens by competing for resources and producing antimicrobial substances. Their presence in the gut microbiota can help maintain a barrier against the colonization of pathogenic bacteria.

  5. Influence on Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD):

    • Research has explored the association between alterations in the gut microbiota, including changes in Bacteroidetes abundance, and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. The relationship is complex, and different species within Bacteroidetes may have distinct effects.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
