Abelmoschus manihot polysaccharide fortifies intestinal mucus barrier to alleviate intestinal inflammation by modulating Akkermansia muciniphila abundance

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B
The intestinal mucus barrier is an important line of defense against gut pathogens. Damage to this barrier brings bacteria into close contact with the epithelium, leading to intestinal inflammation.

Partners or passengers? Revisiting the association between diatoms and aquatic animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Numerous studies have revealed the importance of research on the communities capable of colonizing animal surfaces (epibionts) and the animals on which they live (basibionts). Very few studies have considered epizoic diatoms, and there are gaps and biases in our knowledge, including the choice of basibionts, the methods used, and the habitats ...

From Inflammatory Bowel Disease to Cancer: Gut Microbiota–Immune Microenvironment Crosstalk and Natural Product‐Based Therapeutic Opportunities

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), primarily Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is a chronic relapsing inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract and an important risk factor for IBD‐associated cancer. Increasing evidence suggests that gut microbiota dysbiosis, epithelial barrier dysfunction, and immune microenvironment remodeling

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

Rewiring nutrition: Chemical insights into the physiological and microbiological roles of food's microconstituents

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Bidirectional interactions between food‐derived sensory compounds, gut sensing and microbiota, host physiological feedback, and metabolite production within the food matrix collectively shape sensory perception, microbial dynamics, and metabolic health.

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...
