A wide diversity of bacteria from the human gut produces and degrades biogenic amines

Abstract: Background: Biogenic amines (BAs) are metabolites produced by the decarboxylation of amino acids with significant physiological functions in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. BAs can be produced by bacteria in fermented foods, but little is known concerning the potential for microbes within the human gut microbiota to produce or degrade BAs.Objective: To isolate and identify BA-producing and BA-degrading microbes from the human gastrointestinal tract.Design: Fecal samples from human volunteers were screened on… Show more

“…Of recent interest are studies showing that gut bacteria in humans are able to produce other metabolites with pro-and anti-inflammatory potential, such as biogenic amines (including histamine) (Pugin et al, 2017) and oxylipins such as 12,13-di-HOME (Levan et al, 2019). The number of histamine-secreting bacteria is significantly higher in fecal samples of asthma patients compared with non-asthmatic volunteers .…”

“…Roeder and Schink described a new strain close to Clostridium aminobutyricum , able to degrade cadaverine, in co-culture with the archaea Methanospirullum (Roeder and Schink, 2009). On the other hand, some Clostridium were also identified to be involved in the histamine degradation (Pugin et al, 2017).…”
