The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...

Salt Stress Induces Imbalanced ADI Pathway Gene Expressions in Pediococcus acidilactici Drives Citrulline Accumulation as an Ethyl Carbamate Precursor in Soy Sauce

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrulline is the main precursor of a carcinogen compound ethyl carbamate (EC) in soy sauce. Accumulation of citrulline is mainly related to metabolism of arginine by Pediococcus acidilactici via the arginine deiminase (ADI) pathway during soy sauce fermentation.

Effect of Social Rank on Gut Microbes and Their Metabolites of Greater Long‐Tailed Hamsters (Tscherskia triton)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Social rank in greater long‐tailed hamsters (Tscherskia triton) shapes gut microbiota composition and metabolite profiles. Dominant males exhibit a “high‐vigilance, metabolically activated” phenotype, with elevated aggression and specific gut microbiota enriched in energy‐harvesting taxa and fecal queuine.

Probiotic supplementation during pregnancy for vaginal microbiota improvement and pathogen clearance: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Probiotic supplementation during pregnancy shows a modest, non‐robust increase in Group B Streptococcus decolonization, with no consistent benefit for bacterial vaginosis or vulvovaginal candidiasis. Probiotics may serve as a non‐antibiotic adjunct, but standardized regimens and ecological diagnostic frameworks are required.

Postbiotic Supernatants From Psychobiotic Strains Modulate Antioxidant and Serotonergic Responses

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Cell‐free postbiotic supernatants obtained from psychobiotic strains exhibit strain‐dependent antioxidant and serotonergic effects. SCFA‐rich metabolites enhance antioxidant protection and modulate serotonin release in enterochromaffin cells, supporting their potential as functional ingredients for gut and brain health.

Kefir: A Potential Gut Microbiota Modulator: A Systematic Review of Human Interventional Studies

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Daily cow's milk kefir intake transiently enriches gut microbiota, modulates the intestinal environment by increasing SCFA and reducing pH and oxygen, and exerts antimicrobial effects via SCFAs, bacteriocins, exopolysaccharides, and microbial fractions, highlighting its potential for gut health promotion.
