| Odoribacter| Odoribacter Hardham et al. 2008

1. Gut Microbiota Composition:

   • Odoribacter is one of the many genera that contribute to the diversity and balance of the gut microbiota. The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and the modulation of the immune system.

2. Fermentation and Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production:

   • Bacteria in the Bacteroidetes phylum, including Odoribacter, are involved in the fermentation of dietary fibers. This process produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as byproducts. SCFAs, such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate, can have various effects on gut health, immune modulation, and metabolic processes.

3. Metabolic Functions:

   • Odoribacter species may contribute to the breakdown of complex carbohydrates and the metabolism of various substrates in the gut. The specific metabolic functions of Odoribacter are still being studied.

4. Dietary Influence:

   • The abundance and activity of Odoribacter, like other gut bacteria, can be influenced by dietary factors. Diets rich in fiber and plant-based foods provide substrates for the fermentation processes carried out by these bacteria.

5. Associations with Health Conditions:

   • Changes in the abundance of Odoribacter have been reported in studies of the gut microbiota in various health conditions. Alterations in the relative abundance of this genus have been associated with conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), obesity, and metabolic disorders. However, the specific roles of Odoribacter in these conditions are still being investigated.

6. Immunomodulation:

   • The gut microbiota, including Odoribacter, can influence the host's immune system. Interactions between gut bacteria and the immune system are complex and involve the regulation of immune responses in the gut.

7. Butyrate Production:

   • Some members of the Bacteroidetes phylum, including Odoribacter, are capable of producing butyrate during the fermentation process. Butyrate is a short-chain fatty acid that has been associated with anti-inflammatory effects and the maintenance of gut barrier function.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
