Identifying Gut Microbiome Features that Predict Responsiveness Toward a Prebiotic Capable of Increasing Calcium Absorption: A Pilot Study.
Ma O, Dutta A, Bliss DW, Nakatsu CH, Weaver CM, Whisner CM. Ma O, et al. Among authors: nakatsu ch. Calcif Tissue Int. 2024 May;114(5):513-523. doi: 10.1007/s00223-024-01201-8. Epub 2024 Apr 24. Calcif Tissue Int. 2024. PMID: 38656326 Free PMC article.
Previously, we demonstrated that prebiotics may provide a complementary strategy for increasing calcium (Ca) absorption in adolescents which may improve long-term bone health. However, not all children responded to prebiotic intervention. ...

Effect of soluble corn fiber supplementation for 1 year on bone metabolism in children, the MetA-bone trial: Rationale and design.
Palacios C, Trak-Fellermeier MA, Pérez CM, Huffman F, Hernandez Suarez Y, Bursac Z, Gambon TB, Nakatsu CH, Weaver CM. Palacios C, et al. Among authors: nakatsu ch. Contemp Clin Trials. 2020 Aug;95:106061. doi: 10.1016/j.cct.2020.106061. Epub 2020 Jun 20. Contemp Clin Trials. 2020. PMID: 32574844 Free PMC article.
A strategy to maximize bone mineralization is to increase calcium absorption, which could be achieved by soluble corn fiber (SCF). There are no studies determining the long-term effects of SCF on bone mass in children. OBJECTIVES: To determine the effect of one-year SCF su …

Interaction of bacterial communities and indicators of water quality in shoreline sand, sediment, and water of Lake Michigan.
Nevers MB, Byappanahalli MN, Nakatsu CH, Kinzelman JL, Phanikumar MS, Shively DA, Spoljaric AM. Nevers MB, et al. Among authors: nakatsu ch. Water Res. 2020 Jul 1;178:115671. doi: 10.1016/j.watres.2020.115671. Epub 2020 Mar 2. Water Res. 2020. PMID: 32380294
Results show that FIB and MST markers were effective estimates of short-term conditions at these locations, and bacterial communities in sand and sediment reflected longer-term conditions. ...

Soluble maize fibre affects short-term calcium absorption in adolescent boys and girls: a randomised controlled trial using dual stable isotopic tracers.
Whisner CM, Martin BR, Nakatsu CH, McCabe GP, McCabe LD, Peacock M, Weaver CM. Whisner CM, et al. Among authors: nakatsu ch. Br J Nutr. 2014 Aug 14;112(3):446-56. doi: 10.1017/S0007114514000981. Epub 2014 May 22. Br J Nutr. 2014. PMID: 24848974 Clinical Trial.
These results suggest that moderate daily intake of SCF, a well-tolerated prebiotic fibre, increases short-term Ca absorption in adolescents consuming less than the recommended amounts of Ca....

Analyses of microbial activity in biomass-recycle reactors using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of 16S rDNA and 16S rRNA PCR products.
Morgan CA, Hudson A, Konopka A, Nakatsu CH. Morgan CA, et al. Among authors: nakatsu ch. Can J Microbiol. 2002 Apr;48(4):333-41. doi: 10.1139/w02-029. Can J Microbiol. 2002. PMID: 12030706
Comparisons were made of communities exposed to different types of transient conditions (e.g., long- and short-term starvation, increasing nutrients). With progressively more stringent substrate limitation over time, the specific content of community RNA declined by more t …

Stability of the bacterial communities supported by a seven-stage biological process treating pharmaceutical wastewater as revealed by PCR-DGGE.
LaPara TM, Nakatsu CH, Pantea LM, Alleman JE. LaPara TM, et al. Among authors: nakatsu ch. Water Res. 2002 Feb;36(3):638-46. doi: 10.1016/s0043-1354(01)00277-9. Water Res. 2002. PMID: 11827326
Effluent quality from this treatment process was consistently high with respect to BOD5 (<30 mgl(-1)), soluble COD (<500 mgl(-1)), and total ammonia (< 5 mgl(-1) as N) concentrations. Long-term community structure stability was studied by comparing the similarity …
