Urolithins and intestinal health

Drug Discoveries & Therapeutics, 2022
There are trillions of microorganisms in the human intestine. They can react to the intestinal microenvironment by metabolizing food or producing small molecular compounds to affect the host's digestive ability and resist the risk of infection and autoimmune diseases.

The intestinal microbiome and health [PDF]

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2015
A diverse array of microbes colonizes the human intestine. In this review, we seek to outline the current state of knowledge on what characterizes a 'healthy' or 'normal' intestinal microbiome, what factors modify the intestinal microbiome in the healthy state and how the intestinal microbiome affects normal host physiology.What constitutes a 'normal ...

Intestinal Barrier in Human Health and Disease [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
The intestinal mucosa provides a selective permeable barrier for nutrient absorption and protection from external factors. It consists of epithelial cells, immune cells and their secretions. The gut microbiota participates in regulating the integrity and function of the intestinal barrier in a homeostatic balance.

Intestinal microbiota, diet and health [PDF]

British Journal of Nutrition, 2013
The human intestine is colonised by 1013to 1014micro-organisms, the vast majority of which belong to the phyla Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. Although highly stable over time, the composition and activities of the microbiota may be influenced by a number of factors including age, diet and antibiotic treatment.

TTC7A: Steward of Intestinal Health [PDF]

Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2019
The increasing incidence of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease, coupled with the efficiency of whole-exome sequencing, has led to the identification of tetratricopeptide repeat domain 7A (TTC7A) as a steward of intestinal health. TTC7A deficiency is an autosomal-recessively inherited disease.
