Almond Polysaccharide Ameliorates DSS‐Induced Ulcerative Colitis in Mice by Restoring Intestinal Barrier Function and Modulating Gut Microbiota and SCFAs Metabolism

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study shows that almond polysaccharide AP1 relieves DSS‐induced UC in mice by restoring the mucosal barrier, suppressing inflammation, and modulating gut microbiota and SCFA metabolism. ABSTRACT The development of new therapeutic strategies for ulcerative colitis (UC) requires the targeting of multiple pathogenic factors, including disruption of ...
