1. Normal Gut Microbiota: Bacteroides species, including Bacteroides intestinalis, are part of the normal microbial community in the human gastrointestinal tract. The gut microbiota is essential for various physiological functions, including digestion, metabolism, and immune system regulation.

2. Anaerobic Bacteria: Bacteroides bacteria are often anaerobic, meaning they thrive in environments with little to no oxygen. Anaerobic bacteria are common inhabitants of the gut microbiota.

3. Fermentation and Metabolism: Bacteroides species are known for their ability to ferment complex carbohydrates in the gut, producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as byproducts. SCFAs can have various health benefits, including supporting gut health and influencing immune function.

4. Nutrient Competition: Bacteroides species contribute to the breakdown of complex carbohydrates, competing for nutrients with other bacteria in the gut. This nutrient competition is part of the dynamic balance within the gut microbiota.

5. Associations with Diet: The abundance and composition of Bacteroides species in the gut microbiota can be influenced by dietary factors. Different species within the Bacteroides genus may respond to specific types of dietary fibers and components.

6. Limited Pathogenicity: Bacteroides species are generally considered commensal bacteria, and their presence in the gut is usually beneficial. However, in certain conditions, such as a compromised immune system or disruptions to the normal balance of the microbiota, some Bacteroides species can potentially contribute to infections.

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
