This project investigates the role of hydrogen in the human gut microbiome, focusing on the production and consumption of hydrogen by gut bacteria. Using a mouse model, it aims to identify key microbial players and their interactions that influence gut health and energy flow.
The human gut is a complex microbial bioreactor which protects the host from enteropathogens, facilitates the harvesting of nutrients and energy from undigested dietary components, stimulates healthy immune function, alters host insulin resistance, and exerts control over fat deposition and appetite.
The principal duty of the bacteria in the mammalian gut is the fermentation of undigested dietary components, which results in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and H2 gas.
The H2 pr…
