- [1.14]
- Excess levels of iron and zinc seems to promote the colonization of pathogenic bacteria in the gut, such as Clostridium difficile. - [1.9]
- #Autism incidence has been found to be higher in the C. difficile diseased population. - - #Schizophrenia and autism incidence has been found to be higher in the C. difficile diseased population. - This association was further explained by a #Phenylalanine derivative synthesized and released by the same bacteria in the gut that is known to regulate catecholamine levels in the brain.
- [1.12] [#Caloric restriction]
- Weight loss was associated with impaired nutrient absorption and enrichment in Clostridioides difficile, which was consistent with a decrease in bile acids and was sufficient to replicate metabolic phenotypes in mice in a toxin-dependent manner. - [1.13] [#Bile Acids]
- #Odoribacteraceae > produces a bile acid called #Isoallolithocholic acid > inhibit the growth of Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) in a lab culture > preventing illness. - [1.15] [#Fecal Microbiota Transplantation]
