Deciphering Branched Galactomannan Structures via Multistage Ion Mobility MS and MSn Fragmentation (Multistage IMSn)

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Hemicelluloses are abundant carbohydrate components in plant cell walls. They play a crucial structural role in binding cellulose microfibrils, in addition to other biological functions. Their high structural variability directly influences their biological properties, making it important to establish a structure–function ...

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

Two-week supplementation of Bifidobacterium adolescentis iVS-1 reduces symptoms associated with lactose intolerance in lactose maldigesters

Gut Microbes Reports
Probiotic supplements containing high β-galactosidase-producing bacteria may aid in the management of lactose intolerance. We previously isolated a strain of Bifidobacterium adolescentis, iVS-1, from the fecal sample of a human donor after consumption of

The Effect of Microbiome‐Modulating Therapeutics on Anthropometric and Hemodynamic Biomarkers in Metabolic Syndrome: A Systematic Review, Meta‐Analysis, and Meta‐Regression of Clinical Trials

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a prevalent cardiometabolic disorder characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Microbiome‐targeted therapies with probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics may improve outcomes by modulating metabolism, inflammation, and blood pressure.

Prebiotic Bimuno® GOS reduces illness symptoms and supports gut barrier function and immunity after intermittent exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise in hot climates increases the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) disruption and respiratory illness. We investigated the effects of a 42 day prebiotic intervention on markers of intestinal epithelial injury, GI discomfort and immunity following football specific exercise in the heat and daily upper respiratory illness.
