| Description | Akkermansia is a genus in the phylum Verrucomicrobia; Bacteria with the type species Akkermansia muciniphila. Among the next-generation beneficial microbes that have been identified, Akkermansia muciniphila is a promising candidate. Akkermansia muciniphila is a strict anaerobe recently isolated fromAkkermansia is a genus in the phylum Verrucomicrobia; Bacteria with the type species Akkermansia muciniphila. Among the next-generation beneficial microbes that have been identified, Akkermansia muciniphila is a promising candidate. Akkermansia muciniphila is a strict anaerobe recently isolated from human faeces and uses the mucin as thesole sources of carbon and nitrogen elements. Due to this unique function and its high universality and richness in almost all life stages, Akkermansia muciniphila opened new avenues for the application in next-generation therapeutic probiotic. It is a bacterium of oval shape, non-motile and Gram-negative andforms no endospores and widely distributed in the intestines of human and animals. Akkermansia muciniphila is one of the normal gutsymbionts throughout our life. Currently, a large number of researches on Akkermansia muciniphila mainly focused on explaining its relationship with diseases. It promises to be a therapeutic target in the microbiota-related diseases, such as colitis, metabolic syndrome, immune diseases and cancer. Preliminary human datasuggest oral administration of Akkermansia muciniphila safe, butits effect needs to be further verified in more human clinical trials in the near future....

Prevotella strains are classically considered commensal bacteria due to their extensive presence inthe healthy human body and theirPrevotella is a genus of anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria of the Bacteroidetes phylum, which also includes theclinically important genera Bacteroides and Porphyromonas. Prevotella strains are classically considered commensal bacteria due to their extensive presence inthe healthy human body and their rare involvement ininfections. Prevotella spp. are members of the oral, vaginal, and gut microbiota and are often recovered from anaerobic infections of the respiratory tract. Prevotella spp. predominate in periodontal disease and periodontal abscesses. Regarding Prevotella, studies focused on the associations between the diverse species, genome and habitats with dietary patterns, health and disease. Evidence revealed beneficial effects of some Prevotella strains in the gut such as improving CVD risk factor profile and glucose metabolism. Most studies reported that vegetarians harbour higher numbers of Prevotella species as well as a high Prevotella/Bacteroides ratio compared with non-vegetarians; omnivores. Nevertheless, there is a need for more studies in humans to ascertain a causal and potential disease-triggering role for Prevotella and more in-depth metagenomic studies are needed in order to reveal the health- or disease-modulating properties....

One or more species in this genus are found in significant numbers in the human gut microbiota. |
