Vitamin D is a conditionally required nutrient that can either be obtained from skin synthesis following UVB exposure from the diet. Once in the body, it is metabolized to produce the endocrine hormone, 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D), that regulates gene expression in target tissues by interacting with a ligand-activated transcription factor, the

Gut microbiome, gut function, and probiotics: Implications for health
Indian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2015New insights from a rapidly developing field of research have ushered in a new era of understanding of the complexity of host-microbe interactions within the human body. The paradigm shift from culturing to metagenomics has provided an insight into the complex diversity of the microbial species that we harbor, revealing the fact that we are in fact ...

Impaired gut barrier affects microglia health
Nature Neuroscience, 2022As researchers uncover new roles for the microbiome in health and disease, recent studies have emerged linking the microbiome to aspects of aging. Mossad and colleagues demonstrate that a microbiome-mediated disruption of the intestinal barrier, associated with aging, can contribute to dysfunction of microglia in mice. ; © 2022 Springer Nature Limited.

Gut Microbiota and Bone Health
2017The past decade has seen an explosion of research in the area of how the bacteria that inhabit the human body impact health and disease. One of the more surprising concepts to emerge from this work is the ability of the intestinal microbiota to impact virtually all systems in the body.

Managing gut health through nutrition
British Poultry Science, 20091. To study gut health, a multi-pronged approach is necessary. It should be considered from the point of view of immunology, microbiology and nutrient supply. 2. The impact on gut health often comes from microbial imbalance in the gut, which will be exacerbated if antibiotics are withdrawn from feed. 3.

The composition of human gut microbiota is crucial to the healthy functioning of the host. In this chapter, the effects of dietary antioxidants, particularly polyphenols, on the gut microbiota are discussed. The role played by the food matrix in the bioaccessibility of antioxidants in the upper gastrointestinal tract, their oral hydrolysis, and ...

Probiotics, gut microbiota and health
Médecine et Maladies Infectieuses, 2014The human gut is a huge complex ecosystem where microbiota, nutrients, and host cells interact extensively, a process crucial for the gut homeostasis and host development with a real partnership. The various bacterial communities that make up the gut microbiota have many functions including metabolic, barrier effect, and trophic functions.

CABI Reviews, 2017
Abstract Although the gastrointestinal tract is frequently described simply as 'the gut', it is actually made up of: (1) an epithelium; (2) a diverse and robust immune arm, which contains most of the immune cells in the body; and (3) the commensal bacteria, which contain more cells than are present in the entire host organism.

PASSCLAIM--gut health and immunity.
European journal of nutrition, 2004The gut and immune system form a complex integrated structure that has evolved to provide effective digestion and defence against ingested toxins and pathogenic bacteria. However, great variation exists in what is considered normal healthy gut and immune function. Thus, whilst it is possible to measure many aspects of digestion and immunity, it is more

The gut is an enormously complex environment in which microbiota, nutrients, and host cells interact widely, a process significant for the gut homeostasis and host health. Gut microbial organization plays many roles in the host body, including metabolic, barrier effect, and trophic functions.
