Clermont-Ferrand, France

Catherine MICHEL, a researcher at UMR PhAN, is presenting a scientific poster entitled ‘Is food enriched with Quorum Sensing autoinducers capable of affecting the intestinal milieu in rats? ‘at the 14th International Gut Microbiology Symposium to be held in Clermont-Ferrand from 02 June 2025 to 05 June 2025. Discover the results !

The results presented are the outcome of a multidisciplinary study, carried out in collaboration by 5 frenc research units (BIA, SECALIM, STLO, M-Shark and PhAN) and funded by 3 INRAe departments. It dealt with the ability of sensing molecules used by bacteria, and therefore potentially contained in raw or fermented foods, to interact with the intestinal ecosystem. We have shown that some of these molecules, known as AHLs, that we did detect in raw ham and certain soft cheeses, resist digestion and modulate gene expression in the intestinal wall of young rats without, however, altering the composition of the microbiota at the doses tested.
