An Entity of Type: bacteria, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Christensenella is a genus of non-spore-forming, anaerobic, and nonmotile bacteria from the family . The species has been published and validated, and and have been proposed as novel species of the genus Christensenella, all isolated from human feces. C. minuta in the gut has been associated with reduction in body weight and adiposity of mice. In a test on 977 volunteers, humans with higher levels of Christensenella in their guts were found to be more likely to have a lower body mass index than those with low levels. Christensenella are better represented in persons who are metabolically healthy. However, there is a link to possible pathogenic qualities of C. minuta in humans. An 18-year-old male presented with symptoms of appendicitis. Lab work revealed C. Minuta was found in his blood

dbo:abstract
  • Christensenella is a genus of non-spore-forming, anaerobic, and nonmotile bacteria from the family . The species has been published and validated, and and have been proposed as novel species of the genus Christensenella, all isolated from human feces. C. minuta in the gut has been associated with reduction in body weight and adiposity of mice. In a test on 977 volunteers, humans with higher levels of Christensenella in their guts were found to be more likely to have a lower body mass index than those with low levels. Christensenella are better represented in persons who are metabolically healthy. However, there is a link to possible pathogenic qualities of C. minuta in humans. An 18-year-old male presented with symptoms of appendicitis. Lab work revealed C. Minuta was found in his bloodstream. Upon removal of the appendix, his symptoms and blood levels of C. minuta disappeared. (en)
  • Christensenella es un género de bacterias gram-negativas, sin esporas, anaeróbicas y no móviles. Pertenecen a la familia . La especie ha sido descrita y publicada; y y han sido propuestas como nuevas especies de este género. Todas ellas se han aislado a partir de heces humanas. En concreto, C. minuta se ha detectado en el intestino y se ha asociado con la reducción de peso corporal y de la de los ratones.​ En un test a 977 voluntarios los individuos con niveles más altos de Christensenella en sus intestinos tenían más probabilidad de tener un índice de masa corporal más bajo que aquellos con niveles bajos.​​ (es)
