1. Normal Gut Microbiota: Eggerthella lenta is commonly found in the human colon as part of the normal gut microbiota. It is one of many bacterial species that contribute to the complex microbial community in the digestive system.

2. Metabolism of Drugs: Eggerthella lenta has been studied for its role in drug metabolism, particularly in the activation or inactivation of certain drugs. It has been implicated in the metabolism of drugs such as digoxin and isoniazid. The activity of the gut microbiota, including Eggerthella lenta, can influence drug metabolism and efficacy.

3. Infections and Associations with Diseases: While Eggerthella lenta is generally considered a commensal bacterium, there have been reports of its involvement in various infections, especially in immunocompromised individuals. It has been associated with certain clinical conditions, including bacteremia, endocarditis, and infections in patients with underlying health issues.

4. Association with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD): Some studies have suggested potential associations between the abundance of Eggerthella lenta and certain inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), such as Crohn's disease. However, the relationship between specific bacterial species and IBD is complex and may vary among individuals.

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
