Abstract: The diatheses of animals vary depending on genetic backgrounds of the animals, and the microbial structure of an enterobacterial flora inherent in a host and the behavior of the concentration of a biological molecule sometimes vary depending on the diathesis of the host. In this case, it is needed to administer a proper probiotic. Provided is a microbial preparation for controlling the proportion of the population of bacteria belonging to the division Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes or Proteobacteria or the proportion of the population of bacteria belonging to the genus Clostridium, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium or Bacteroidetes in the enterobacterial florae in an animal body, and for controlling the concentration of a functional molecule contained in a living body, said microbial preparation containing a microorganism P01931 (International Accession No. BP-1931), MK-01A (International Accession No. BP-02066) or MK-03A (International Accession No. BP-02067) or a component of the microorganism.

Abstract: Species of human-derived bacteria belonging to the Clostridia class have been shown to induce accumulation of regulatory T cells (Treg cells) in the colon and suppress immune functions. Pharmaceutical compositions containing these bacteria can be used to prevent and treat immune-mediated diseases such as autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: Strains of human-derived bacteria have been obtained from complex fecal samples and shown to induce accumulation of Th17 cells in the intestine and promote immune functions. Pharmaceutical compositions containing these bacteria can be used as anti-infectives and as adjuvants in mucosal vaccines.

Abstract: Provided are a functional microbial material and a method for producing a fermentation product, wherein the functional microbial material and the fermentation product are environment-friendly and improve the quality of crops. The present invention relates to a microbial material and a method for producing a fermentation product wherein the microbial material and the fermentation product are obtained by fermentation of a fermentation raw material including a plant-derived raw material and an animal-derived raw material using a population of microorganisms including a plurality of species of thermophilic microorganisms, and lead to a remedy for soil and water pollution and to the inhibition of greenhouse gas generation, as well as contribute to improvements in the functionality of plants, particularly the expression of genes involved in biophylaxis and resistant to high-temperature disorder, and an increase in antioxidant components.

Abstract: To provide a mixture, a dissolving solution and a pharmaceutical agent, which contain a thermophilic microorganism to make it possible to regulate a mucous membrane immune system gene cluster and metabolism-related gene clusters of the intestines and the liver. Each of them is prepared by fermentation of an organic material containing a thermophilic microorganism at a temperature of 50° C. or more and 90° C. or less. By being administered to the animal, it regulates at least one of a mucous membrane immune system gene cluster, a metabolism-related gene cluster in the intestines, and a metabolism-related gene cluster in the liver of the animal. The microorganism includes at least one species of the genus Bacillus, Oceanobacillus, Paenibacillus, Anoxybacillus, Lysinibacillus, Methanopyrus, Geogemma, Pyrolobus, Pyrodictium, Hyperthermus, Pyrococcus, Pyrobaculum, Thermococcus, Aeropyrum, Aquifex, Thermotoga, Thermodesulfobacterium, Thermus, Geobacillus, and Thermomyces.
