Importance of good hosting: reviewing the bi-directionality of the microbiome-gut-brain-axis

Frontiers in Neuroscience
Gut microorganisms have been shown to significantly impact on central function and studies that have associated brain disorders with specific bacterial genera have advocated an anomalous gut microbiome as the pathophysiological basis of several ...

The Development and Pilot Clinical Study of CD147 Targeted Antagonistic Peptide Probe for Tumor Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes [68Ga]Ga‐DOTA‐AP9 as a first‐in‐human CD147‐targeted PET tracer with favorable safety and specific tumor uptake. Tracer accumulation correlates with CD147 expression in patients, enabling noninvasive quantification of CD147‐positive malignancies.

Enhancing Maturation of Human Neuromuscular Organoids via Electrical Stimulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A framework for on‐demand and non‐invasive exposure of human neuromuscular organoids (NMOs) to electrical stimuli is established to promote their maturation. The robustness and effectiveness of different stimulation regimes are evaluated via thorough characterization of organoid tissue structure and contraction capacity. Chronic electrical stimulation,

Convergent and selective representations of pain, appetitive processes, aversive processes, and cognitive control in the insula

Nature Communications
Brain regions that integrate multiple types of information (“convergence zones”) are crucial for the brain to generate coherent experiences and behaviors. The insula, known for its functional diversity, has been hypothesized as a key convergence hub, yet

Therapeutic role of gut microbiota in lung injury-related cognitive impairment

Frontiers in Nutrition
Lung injury can lead to specific neurocognitive dysfunction, and the “triple-hit” phenomenon may be the key theoretical mechanism for the progressive impairment of lung injury-related cognitive impairment.

Amuc_1473 Links Gut Microbes to Skeletal Homeostasis and Counteracts Multifactorial Osteoporosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Amuc_1473, a previously uncharacterized protein enriched in Akkermansia muciniphila‐derived extracellular vesicles, is identified as a gut–bone messenger that promotes osteogenesis and inhibits osteoclastogenesis by engaging transcriptional and translational regulators in bone cells.

Omissions of threat trigger subjective relief and prediction error-like signaling in the human reward and salience systems

eLife
The unexpected absence of danger constitutes a pleasurable event that is critical for the learning of safety. Accumulating evidence points to similarities between the processing of absent threat and the well-established reward prediction error (PE ...

A Synergistic Hydrogel‐Microalgae Platform for Dual‐Targeting of Intestinal and Neuroimmune Dysfunction in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioactive hydrogel incorporating Chlorella vulgaris and paeoniflorin within a carboxymethyl chitosan/sodium alginate matrix cross‐linked with genipin is developed for inflammatory bowel disease therapy. The hydrogel exhibits gastric stability and intestine‐responsive release.

Gasdermin D‐Mediated Release of IL‐33 Results in Fetal Brain Developmental Abnormalities During Maternal Colitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under colitis, Gsdmd mediates the release of IL‐33 from the epithelium of pregnant mice. IL‐33 can cross the placenta and enhance the proliferative capacity of neural stem cells, ultimately resulting in behavioral deficits in the offspring. Excessive pyroptosis in the colonic epithelium also triggers the translocation of LPS, which in turn increases ...

Dietary influences on the gut-brain pathways: Mechanisms and therapeutic potential

Human Nutrition & Metabolism
There is emerging evidence that the gut-brain axis can be significantly influenced through a gut friendly diet. Indeed, nutritional neuroscience holds a significant role in managing the gut brain axis and mental health disorders as numerous pathways ...
