Alistipes is a Gram-negative genus of rod-shaped anaerobic bacteria in the phylum Bacteroidota.[1] When members of this genus colonize the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract, they provide protective effects against colitis (intestinal inflammation), autism, and cirrhosis (liver fibrosis). However, this genus can also cause dysbiosis by contributing to anxiety, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, and hypertension.[2] Showcasing priority effects in microbiome assembly, when infant GI tracts have bacteria of the species Staphylococcus but not the species Faecalibacterium, Alistipes species become less capable of colonization.[3]

Etymology

Alistipes is derived from the Neo-Latin noun alistipes, meaning "the other stick", which is further derived from the Latin adjective alius (other) and noun stipes (log/post).[1]

Species

This genus has eleven validly published species, as per the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP):[1]
