• Molecular, biochemical and behavioural evidence for a novel oxytocin receptor and serotonin 2C receptor heterocomplex 

  Chruścicka, Barbara; Cowan, Caitlin S. M.; Wallace Fitzsimons, Shauna E.; Borroto-Escuela, Dasiel O.; Druelle, Clémentine; Stamou, Panagiota; Bergmann, Cristian A.; Dinan, Timothy G.; Slattery, David A.; Fuxe, Kjell; Cryan, John F.; Schellekens, Harriët (Elsevier, 2021-02)

  The complexity of oxytocin-mediated functions is strongly associated with its modulatory effects on other neurotransmission systems, including the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) system. Signalling between oxytocin ...
• Bifidobacterium longum counters the effects of obesity: partial successful translation from rodent to human 

  Schellekens, Harriët; Torres-Fuentes, Cristina; van de Wouw, Marcel; Long-Smith, Caitriona M.; Mitchell, Avery; Strain, Conall R.; Berding, Kirsten; Bastiaanssen, Thomaz F. S.; Rea, Kieran; Golubeva, Anna V.; Arboleya, Silvia; Verpaalen, Mathieu; Pusceddu, Matteo M.; Murphy, Amy; Fouhy, Fiona; Murphy, Kiera; Ross, R. Paul; Roy, Bernard L.; Stanton, Catherine; Dinan, Timothy G.; Cryan, John F. (Elsevier B.V., 2021-01)

  The human gut microbiota has emerged as a key factor in the development of obesity. Certain probiotic strains have shown anti-obesity effects. The objective of this study was to investigate whether Bifidobacterium longum ...
• Efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation for the treatment of diseases other than Clostridium difficile infection: a systematic review and meta-analysis 

  Green, Jessica Emily; Davis, Jessica A.; Berk, Michael; Hair, Christopher; Loughman, Amy; Castle, David; Athan, Eugene; Nierenberg, Andrew A.; Cryan, John F.; Jacka, Felice N.; Marx, Wolfgang (Taylor & Francis, 2020-11)

  The intestinal microbiome has been identified as a key modifier for a variety of health conditions. Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) has emerged as a fast, safe, and effective means by which to modify the intestinal ...
• Distinct actions of the fermented beverage kefir on host behaviour, immunity and microbiome gut-brain modules in the mouse 

  van de Wouw, Marcel; Walsh, Aaron M.; Crispie, Fiona; van Leuven, Lucas; Lyte, Joshua M.; Boehme, Marcus; Clarke, Gerard; Dinan, Timothy G.; Cotter, Paul D.; Cryan, John F. (Springer Nature, 2020-05)

  BACKGROUND: Mounting evidence suggests a role for the gut microbiota in modulating brain physiology and behaviour, through bi-directional communication, along the gut-brain axis. As such, the gut microbiota represents a ...
• Enduring neurobehavioral effects induced by microbiota depletion during the adolescent period 

  Lach, Gilliard; Fulling, Christine; Bastiaanssen, Thomaz F. S.; Fouhy, Fiona; O'Donovan, Aoife; Ventura-Silva, Ana Paula; Stanton, Catherine; Dinan, Timothy G.; Cryan, John F. (Springer, 2020-11)

  The gut microbiota is an essential regulator of many aspects of host physiology. Disruption of gut microbial communities affects gut-brain communication which ultimately can manifest as changes in brain function and ...
