Details about Christensenellaceae: NCBI 990719, gram-negative or unknown

  1. Gut Microbiota Composition: Christensenellaceae bacteria are among the many microbial species that inhabit the human gastrointestinal tract. The composition of the gut microbiota is known to have a significant impact on human health, influencing various physiological functions.

  2. Association with Lean Phenotype: Some studies have suggested an association between the abundance of Christensenellaceae in the gut microbiota and a lean or healthy body phenotype. Higher abundance of Christensenellaceae has been reported in individuals with lower body mass index (BMI).

  3. Heritability: Research indicates that the abundance of Christensenellaceae in the gut may have a heritable component, meaning that its presence or abundance may be influenced by genetic factors. It has been observed to run in families.

  4. Metabolic Functions: While the specific metabolic functions of Christensenellaceae are not fully elucidated, members of the Firmicutes phylum, including Christensenellaceae, are known to be involved in the fermentation of dietary fibers and the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs play a role in gut health and can have systemic effects on metabolism.

  5. Correlation with Health Outcomes: Research is ongoing to understand the potential correlations between the abundance of Christensenellaceae and various health outcomes. However, it's important to note that associations do not necessarily imply causation, and the relationship between specific bacterial taxa and health is complex.

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.
