    Artificial sweeteners induce glucose intolerance by altering the gut microbiota (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)

    Publication Date: 2014-09-19
    Description: Non-caloric artificial sweeteners (NAS) are among the most widely used food additives worldwide, regularly consumed by lean and obese individuals alike. NAS consumption is considered safe and beneficial owing to their low caloric content, yet supporting scientific data remain sparse and controversial. Here we demonstrate that consumption of commonly used NAS formulations drives the development of glucose intolerance through induction of compositional and functional alterations to the intestinal microbiota. These NAS-mediated deleterious metabolic effects are abrogated by antibiotic treatment, and are fully transferrable to germ-free mice upon faecal transplantation of microbiota configurations from NAS-consuming mice, or of microbiota anaerobically incubated in the presence of NAS. We identify NAS-altered microbial metabolic pathways that are linked to host susceptibility to metabolic disease, and demonstrate similar NAS-induced dysbiosis and glucose intolerance in healthy human subjects. Collectively, our results link NAS consumption, dysbiosis and metabolic abnormalities, thereby calling for a reassessment of massive NAS usage.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Suez, Jotham -- Korem, Tal -- Zeevi, David -- Zilberman-Schapira, Gili -- Thaiss, Christoph A -- Maza, Ori -- Israeli, David -- Zmora, Niv -- Gilad, Shlomit -- Weinberger, Adina -- Kuperman, Yael -- Harmelin, Alon -- Kolodkin-Gal, Ilana -- Shapiro, Hagit -- Halpern, Zamir -- Segal, Eran -- Elinav, Eran -- England -- Nature. 2014 Oct 9;514(7521):181-6. doi: 10.1038/nature13793.

    Accurate whole-genome sequencing and haplotyping from 10 to 20 human cells (2012)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-07-13
    Description: Recent advances in whole-genome sequencing have brought the vision of personal genomics and genomic medicine closer to reality. However, current methods lack clinical accuracy and the ability to describe the context (haplotypes) in which genome variants co-occur in a cost-effective manner. Here we describe a low-cost DNA sequencing and haplotyping process, long fragment read (LFR) technology, which is similar to sequencing long single DNA molecules without cloning or separation of metaphase chromosomes. In this study, ten LFR libraries were made using only approximately 100 picograms of human DNA per sample. Up to 97% of the heterozygous single nucleotide variants were assembled into long haplotype contigs. Removal of false positive single nucleotide variants not phased by multiple LFR haplotypes resulted in a final genome error rate of 1 in 10 megabases. Cost-effective and accurate genome sequencing and haplotyping from 10-20 human cells, as demonstrated here, will enable comprehensive genetic studies and diverse clinical applications.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3397394/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3397394/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Peters, Brock A -- Kermani, Bahram G -- Sparks, Andrew B -- Alferov, Oleg -- Hong, Peter -- Alexeev, Andrei -- Jiang, Yuan -- Dahl, Fredrik -- Tang, Y Tom -- Haas, Juergen -- Robasky, Kimberly -- Zaranek, Alexander Wait -- Lee, Je-Hyuk -- Ball, Madeleine Price -- Peterson, Joseph E -- Perazich, Helena -- Yeung, George -- Liu, Jia -- Chen, Linsu -- Kennemer, Michael I -- Pothuraju, Kaliprasad -- Konvicka, Karel -- Tsoupko-Sitnikov, Mike -- Pant, Krishna P -- Ebert, Jessica C -- Nilsen, Geoffrey B -- Baccash, Jonathan -- Halpern, Aaron L -- Church, George M -- Drmanac, Radoje -- P50 HG005550/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- P50HG005550/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2012 Jul 11;487(7406):190-5. doi: 10.1038/nature11236.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Complete Genomics, Inc., 2071 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, California 94043, USA. bpeters@completegenomics.com〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22785314" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
