With the rising incidence of IBD and limitations of current therapies, novel strategies are urgently needed. Recent studies have highlighted natural products in colitis treatment. Here, we investigated the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of lily polysaccharides (LP) in DSS-induced ulcerative c...
Ulcerative colitis (UC) involves epithelial injury, gut microbial dysbiosis, disturbed microbial metabolism, and mucosal inflammation. This study evaluated the protective effect of Schisandra chinensis (SC) against dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC and investigated the underlying microbiota...
Abstract Background & Aims: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) pathogenesis involves gut microbiota dysbiosis, but specific pathobionts and mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the role of patient-derived enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) in ALD progression and its underlyi...
Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disorder characterized by aberrant osteoclast activation, leading
to excessive bone resorption and microarchitectural deterioration. Although the interconnection
between osteoclast differentiation and cellular energy metabolism has been inc...
BACKGROUND: Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is characterized by hyperalgesia and neuronal hyperexcitability. Although gut microbiota dysbiosis have been found in PDN, how microbiota influences PDN remains largely unexplored. RESULTS: Gut microbiota and its metabolites impacted PDN was investiga...
