SUMMARY Laboratory-raised mice live approximately seven times longer and healthier lives compared to their wild counterparts, due a standardized healthy diet limited exposure environmental stressors 1 . Aging is associated with increased inflammation microbial dysbiosis 2–4 Collectively, these influence microbiota evolution may contribute the enrichment in pathobiont frequency observed old age 4 Alternatively, this increase could stem from decline colonization resistance 5,6 , creating favorable conditions for invasion. Here, we sought test whether aging healthy, controlled conditions, prevent selection of age-associated pathobionts. We have followed adaptive commensal strain Escherichia coli guts advanced found that it acquired several mutations common bacteria colonizing young mice, which were absent animals. This, together Akkermansia muciniphila age, suggest 7,8 However, exclusively older mainly pathoadaptive, tuning metabolism oxygen iron availability, hypermotility, biofilm formation. In summary, while evolutionary signature very shows youth-like features be longevity, pathoadaptive traits magnified age. While suggesting breach not needed justify abundance pathobionts, our findings raise question specialized bacteria, as opposing generalists such E. will display same ability evolve traits.

The expansion of intensive aquaculture has heightened metabolic dysregulation in fish caused by high-glucose and high-lipid (HG-HL) diets, contributing to growth retardation hepatic pathologies. Using Coilia nasus hepatocytes, this study investigated the regulatory effects short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) on glucose-lipid metabolism. In vitro HG-HL exposure elevated intracellular glucose, triglycerides (TG), cholesterol; suppressed catalase (CAT) superoxide dismutase (SOD); dysregulated genes (upregulated phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase acetyl-CoA carboxylase; downregulated glucokinase hormone-sensitive lipase). Co-treatment with acetate propionate reversed these anomalies, reducing TG cholesterol, restoring antioxidant capacity (SOD CAT), normalizing gene expression patterns. Molecular docking suggested potential binding interactions between SCFAs free acid receptor (FFAR2/3). This provided initial evidence suggesting might attenuate HG-HL-induced stress a teleost model, potentially involving FFAR-related pathways AMPK-associated responses. findings contribute understanding SCFA-mediated regulation fish, offering preliminary support for developing dietary interventions manage aquacultural syndromes.

Background Increasing evidence has shown a close relation between the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is global health problem with multifactorial etiopathogenesis, and gut microbiota. Methods During in-vitro fermentation Scrophularia ningpoensis (known as Xuanshen) polysaccharide (SNP) by T2DM microbiota, effects SNP on gas content, production short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), metabolite profile microbiota composition were studied. Results Analysis chemical compositions indicates that total sugar content was found to be high 87.35 ± 0.13% (w/w). treatment significantly improved volume in fecal matter. Moreover, intestinal flora degraded produce SCFAs, thus regulating SCFA composition. Metabolomic analysis implied shows potential regulate five metabolites (L-valine, L-leucine, L-isoleucine, L-alanine, xylitol) Furthermore, dysbiosis induced reversed SNP.
