Chrono‐Gerontology: Integrating Circadian Rhythms and Aging in Stroke Research
Stroke is a disease of older individuals. However, aging, circadian rhythms, and other lifestyle‐associated comorbidities are rarely considered in stroke pre‐clinical studies. This review discusses the interactions between circadian rhythms, the gut microbiome, and stroke pathology and highlights short‐chain fatty acids and nicotinamide adenine ...

Emerging Self‐Assembled Nanoparticles Constructed from Natural Polyphenols for Intestinal Diseases
Polyphenol‐based nanoparticles (PNPs) are promising in preventing and treating intestinal disease due to the combined advantages of polyphenols and nanoscale particles. The catechol/galloyl groups bring in the antioxidation and anti‐inflammatory properties, while the nanoparticle formation enhances the bioavailability.

Human skin bacterial microbiota homeostasis: A delicate balance between health and disease
Abstract As the largest organ of the body, the skin acts as a barrier to prevent diseases and harbors a variety of beneficial bacteria. Furthermore, the skin bacterial microbiota plays a vital role in health and disease. Disruption of the barrier or an imbalance between symbionts and pathogens can lead to skin disorders or even systemic diseases.
