Gut Dysbiosis

The gut microbiota-brain axis, psychobiotics and its influence on brain and behaviour: a systematic review

Gut Dysbiosis, Gut Microbiota, Gut-Brain axis, Probiotics, Prebiotics and Symbiotics /

The gut microbiota is the set of microorganisms present in the gut, and it is connected to the central nervous system via the gut-brain axis. Despite there is not a definitive description of the eubiotic microbiota architecture, numerous studies have demonstrated its involvement in human behaviour and its relationship with several pathologies. This is a systematic review about the association between dysbiosis on […]

S889 Effects of Etoh on Human Intestinal Epithelial and Microvascular Endothelial Cells (HIMEC) in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: An in-vitro Exploration

Butyrate, Gut Dysbiosis /

Ethanol (EtOH) is associated with IBD flares, but the exact mechanisms are not well-known. Gut dysbiosis and depleted luminal butyrate are both linked with IBD and EtOH exposure. We tested our hypothesis that EtOH-induced gut dysbiosis and depleted butyrate levels disrupt intestinal epithelial junctional proteins which facilitates ethanol and endotoxin interaction with intestinal microvascular endothelial

Neuroprotection of chicoric acid in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease involves gut microbiota and TLR4 signaling pathway

Chicoric acid (CA), a polyphenolic acid obtained from chicory and purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea), has been regarded as nutraceutical to combat inflammation, virus and obesity. Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder, and microbiota-gut-brain axis might be the potential mechanism in the pathogenesis and development of PD. The results here demonstrated that oral pretreatments

Regulation of common neurological disorders by gut microbial metabolites

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

The gut is connected to the CNS by immunological mediators, lymphocytes, neurotransmitters, microbes and microbial metabolites. A mounting body of evidence indicates that the microbiome exerts significant effects on immune cells and CNS cells. These effects frequently result in the suppression or exacerbation of inflammatory responses, the latter of which can lead to severe tissue

The role of probiotics in nutritional health: probiotics as nutribiotics

Biomarkers, Diet and Exercise, Gut Dysbiosis, Gut Microbiota, Gut Permeability / Leaky Gut, Gut-Brain axis, Parkinson's Disease, Pre-PD, Probiotics, Prebiotics and Symbiotics /

The gut microbiota has gained importance through the years due to its significant influences on the maintenance of human health. A wide variety of microorganisms shape this gut microbiota, which preserves health with the modulation of the immune system, enhancement of the nutrients absorption, or the protection against pathogens’ colonization. The disruption of this microenvironment

Nausea, heartburn, indigestion, constipation, andstomach pain are all kinds of gastrointestinal problems we have faced before. They are easy to dismissas merely an upset stomach, but this mentality couldbuild up and ultimately be detrimental to mental and physicalhealth. Improperly caring for the digestive system can lead toextensive intestinal health issues. The microbiome is a collectionof

Gut dysbiosis, defective autophagy and altered immune responses in neurodegenerative diseases: Tales of a vicious cycle

Autophagy, Gut Dysbiosis, Parkinson's Disease, Probiotics, Prebiotics and Symbiotics /

The human microbiota comprises trillions of symbiotic microorganisms and is involved in regulating gastrointestinal (GI), immune, nervous system and metabolic homeostasis. Recent observations suggest a bidirectional communication between the gut microbiota and the brain via immune, circulatory and neural pathways, termed the Gut-Brain Axis (GBA). Alterations in gut microbiota composition, such as seen with an increased number of pathobionts

The gut brain axis is a system of bi-directional communication. When the delicate balance of the microbiome is disrupted, the resulting dysbiosis can be a factor in the development of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), Parkinson’s Disease (PK), and Multiple Sclerosis (MS). One major player in the gut brain axis are short-chain fatty acids

With the increasing amount of evidence linking certain disorders of the human body to a disturbed gut microbiota, there is a growing interest for compounds that positively influence its composition and activity through diet. Besides the consumption of probiotics to stimulate favorable bacterial communities in the human gastrointestinal tract, prebiotics such as inulin-type fructans (ITF)
