Baicalin Restores the Hypoglycemic Effect of Metformin by Regulating the Microbial Imidazole Propionate and Short‐Chain Fatty Acids

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Baicalin restores the hypoglycemic effect of metformin by decreasing the serum imidazole propionate. ABSTRACT Gut microbiota dysbiosis is implicated in metformin non‐response. This study aimed to investigate whether baicalin, a microbiota‐modulating flavonoid derived from Radix Scutellariae, could restore metformin sensitivity and explored the ...

Bridging Psychological Stress and Skin Cellular Aging: Flavonoids as a Dual‐Action Therapeutic Strategy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Psychological stress (or simply “stress”) is a major contributor to chronic disease worldwide, affecting 35% of the global population, including younger generations. Furthermore, it plays a significant role in human premature aging; hence, its detrimental effects on people's health compel us to comprehend and control the ways in which ...

Mining the Methylome Reveals Extensive Diversity in Staphylococcus epidermidis Restriction Modification

mBio, 2019
Staphylococcus epidermidis is a significant opportunistic pathogen of humans. Molecular studies in this species have been hampered by the presence of restriction-modification (RM) systems that limit introduction of foreign DNA.

Role of Antimicrobial Peptides in the Pathogenesis of Atopic Dermatitis

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation, and microbial dysbiosis. Recent studies have highlighted the multifaceted roles of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) both as innate defenders against microbial invasion and as regulators of immune responses and skin barrier ...

Dynamic 16S rRNA Sequencing of the Abdominal Wall Surgical Site Highlights Potential Pathways of Incisional Surgical Site Infection in Colorectal Surgery

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Understanding the microbial changes within the surgical site may enhance our understanding of the origin and subsequent role of microbes in the causation of incisional surgical site infections (SSIs). In this study we used 16S rRNA sequencing to establish the dynamic microbiota of the surgical site in patients undergoing bowel ...
