Consumption of a novel prebiotic mixture rapidly impacted the intestinal microbiota (10 days), reduced the abundance of pro-inflammatory bacteria and promoted the growth of beneficial SCFA-producing bacteria. In addition, prebiotic consumption increased plasma SCFA levels, and improved markers of intestinal barrier integrity and brain health. This proof-of-concept study provides evidence for the importance of intestinal […]

Metabolites from the Gut Microbiota and the Role in the
Gut-Brain Axis

Butyrate, Gut Microbiota, Gut-Brain axis, Short Chain Fatty Acids /

The gut microbiota is highly capable of biotransformation, exposing the host to a wide varietyof physiologically active compounds. These metabolites participate in signaling between thegastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system and may regulate physiological andpathological processes in the central nervous system. This bidirectional communication cantake place in a variety of ways, including binding to

Accumulating evidence to date suggests that brown rice is superior to white rice in regards to its beneficial impact on a number of risk factors of the metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, little is known about the influence of fermented brown rice beverage on the gut microbiota in humans. We therefore hypothesized that its impact would

: The human lifespan has been significantly increased due to scientific advancements inthe management of disease; however, the health span of the aging population does not follow thesame trend. Aging is the major risk factor for multimorbidity that is derived from the progressiveloss of homeostasis, immunological and stem cell exhaustion, as well as exacerbated inflammationresponses.

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by dopaminergic neuronal loss andα-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation. With the acceleration of population aging process, the incidence of PD is expected toincrease, putting a heavy burden on the whole society. Recent studies have found the alterations of gut microbiota (GM) inPD patients and the clinical relevance of

Parkinson’s disease (PD) presents a common challenge for people all over the world and has become a major research hotspot due to the large population affected by the illness and the difficulty of clinical treatment. The prevalence of PD is increasing every year, the pathogenesis is complex, and the current treatment is ineffective. Therefore, it has

The influence of gut microbiota alteration on age-related neuroinflammation and cognitive decline

Butyrate, Gut Dysbiosis, Gut Microbiota, Gut Permeability / Leaky Gut, Short Chain Fatty Acids /

Recent emerging research on intestinal microbiota and its contribution to the central nervous system during health and disease has attracted significant attention. Age-related intestinal microbiota changes initiate brain aging and age-related neurodegenerative disorders. Aging is one of the critical predisposing risk factors for the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Maintaining a healthy gut microbiota is essential

The gut microbiota is composed of several microbial strains, with diverse and variablecombinations in healthy and sick persons, changing at different stages of life. A healthy balancebetween host and gut microorganisms must be maintained in order to perform the normal physiological, metabolic, and immune functions and prevent disease development. Disturbances in the balanceof the gut
