Back to details

| ATCC 8492| Bacteroides uniformis| Bacteroides uniformis Eggerth and Gagnon 1933 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Hahnke et al. 2016| CCUG 4942| CIP 103695| DSM 6597| JCM 5828| NCTC 13054

1. Gut Microbiota Composition: Bacteroides uniformis is a member of the gut microbiota, contributing to the overall microbial community in the digestive tract. The gut microbiota is known to play a crucial role in various aspects of human health, including digestion, metabolism, and immune function.

2. Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production: Bacteroides uniformis, like other Bacteroides species, is involved in the fermentation of dietary fibers and complex carbohydrates in the colon. This fermentation process produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including acetate, propionate, and butyrate. SCFAs have been associated with various health benefits, including serving as an energy source for colonocytes and contributing to gut barrier function.

3. Metabolism and Nutrition: Bacteroides species, including B. uniformis, have been implicated in the metabolism of certain compounds and nutrients in the gut. They can influence the breakdown of complex carbohydrates and may contribute to the extraction of energy from the diet.

4. Immune System Modulation: Interactions between Bacteroides uniformis and the host immune system are areas of active research. Some studies suggest that certain Bacteroides species, including B. uniformis, may play a role in immune system modulation, helping to maintain a balanced immune response.

5. Associations with Health Conditions: Changes in the abundance of Bacteroides uniformis have been reported in association with various health conditions. For example, alterations in the gut microbiota, including changes in Bacteroides abundance, have been observed in conditions such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and metabolic disorders. However, the specific roles of individual species, including B. uniformis, in these conditions are complex and may depend on multiple factors.

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
