Astragalus improves intestinal barrier function and immunity by acting on intestinal microbiota to treat T2DM: a research review

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Diabetes is a significant chronic endocrine/metabolism disorder that can result in a number of life-threatening consequences. According to research, the gut microbiota is strongly linked to the development of diabetes, making it a viable target for ...

The chaperone ClpC participates in sporulation, motility, biofilm, and toxin production of Clostridioides difficile

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2023
: Objectives: Clostridioides difficile is a nosocomial pathogen that is associated with the use of antibiotics. One of the most worrying aspects of C. difficile infection is its ability to resist antimicrobial therapies, owing to spore formation.

Probiotic Yeasts and Vibrio anguillarum Infection Modify the Microbiome of Zebrafish Larvae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The host microbiome plays an essential role in health and disease. Microbiome modification by pathogens or probiotics has been poorly explored especially in the case of probiotic yeasts.

Continuous oral exposure to micro- and nanoplastics induced gut microbiota dysbiosis, intestinal barrier and immune dysfunction in adult mice.

Environment International, 2023
Micro/nanoplastics in the environment can be ingested by organisms and spread throughout the food chain, ultimately posing a threat to human health. However, the risk of continuous oral exposure in mammals remains unresolved. In this study, we utilized a

The Intestinal Microbiota and Viral Susceptibility [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Many infections start with microbial invasion of mucosal surfaces, which are typically colonized by a community of resident microbes. A growing body of literature demonstrates that the resident microbiota plays a significant role in host susceptibility to pathogens.

The Intestinal Microbiota in Metabolic Disease [PDF]

Nutrients, 2016
Gut bacteria exert beneficial and harmful effects in metabolic diseases as deduced from the comparison of germfree and conventional mice and from fecal transplantation studies. Compositional microbial changes in diseased subjects have been linked to adiposity, type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. Promotion of an increased expression of intestinal nutrient

Gut microbiota-bile acid crosstalk regulates murine lipid metabolism via the intestinal FXR-FGF19 axis in diet-induced humanized dyslipidemia

Microbiome, 2023
Background Diet-induced dyslipidemia is linked to the gut microbiota, but the causality of microbiota-host interaction affecting lipid metabolism remains controversial.

Gut microbiota-derived bile acids in intestinal immunity, inflammation, and tumorigenesis

Cell Host and Microbe, 2022
SUMMARY Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC) are heterogeneous intestinal diseases that threaten the health of an increasing number of individuals as their lifestyles become Westernized. New insights have been discovered with the

Intestinal Inflammation Induced by Soybean Meal Ingestion Increases Intestinal Permeability and Neutrophil Turnover Independently of Microbiota in Zebrafish

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Intestinal inflammation is a condition shared by several intestinal chronic diseases, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, with severely detrimental consequences in the long run.
