<i>Desulfovibrio desulfuricans</i> isolates from the gut of a single individual: Structural and biological lipid A characterization
3 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
The levels of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), including Desulfovibrionaceae, in the gut increase following a fat-enriched diet. Endotoxins from gut microbiota contribute to the inflammation process, leading to metabolic diseases. Thus, we sought to characterize the lipid A structures of Desulfovibrionaceae lipopolysaccharides (LPS) that are associated with the microbiota inflammatory properties. LPS variants...
