Harnessing microbial metabolism and nutrition to target the gut–mammary axis for better livestock production and health

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The gut–mammary axis integrates intestinal health with mammary function through neural, endocrine, and immune pathways. Nutritional interventions (probiotics, prebiotics, metabolites) improve gut microecology, generating microbial signals that travel via the axis to the mammary gland. There, they relieve inflammation, enhance milk quality and lactation,
