The intestinal and intratumoral microbiota are closely associated with tumor progression response to antitumor treatments. antibacterial or microenvironment (TME)-modulating approaches have been shown markedly improve efficacy, strategies focused on normalizing the microbial environment rarely reported. Here, we reported development of an orally administered inulin-based hydrogel colon-targeting retention effects, containing hollow MnO 2 nanocarrier loaded chemotherapeutic drug Oxa (Oxa@HMI). On one hand, beneficial bacteria in colon specifically metabolized Oxa@HMI, resulting degradation inulin generation short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These SCFAs play a crucial role modulating stimulating immune responses. other matrix underwent microbiota-specific degradation, enabling targeted release production reactive oxygen species acidic TME. In this study, established, for first time, microbiota-targeted delivery system Oxa@HMI that exhibited high efficiency colorectal cancer targeting retention. promoted chemotherapy activated responses by intervening within tissue, providing clinical approach treatment susceptible invasion.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's and ulcerative colitis, is a complex disorder with an unknown cause. However, the dysbiosis of gut microbiome has been found to play role in IBD etiology, exacerbated immune responses defective intestinal barrier integrity. The can also be potential biomarker for several diseases, IBD. Currently, conventional treatments targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines pathways IBD-associated do not yield effective results. Other therapies that directly target dysbiotic outcomes are emerging. We review health its as diagnostic, prognostic, therapeutic This explores emerging advancements microbiome-associated alterations IBD, such nanoparticle or encapsulation delivery, fecal microbiota transplantation, nutritional therapies, microbiome/probiotic engineering, phage therapy, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), proteins, herbal formulas.

Cancer immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment in recent years, with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) emerging as a key therapeutic approach. ICIs work by inhibiting the mechanisms that allow tumors to evade detection. Although have shown promising results, especially solid tumors, patient responses vary widely due multiple intrinsic and extrinsic factors within tumor microenvironment. Emerging evidence suggests gut microbiota plays pivotal role modulating at site may even influence outcomes patients receiving ICIs. This review explores complex interactions between microenvironment, examining how these could impact effectiveness of ICI therapy. Furthermore, we discuss dysbiosis, an imbalance composition, contribute resistance ICIs, highlight microbiota-targeted strategies potentially overcome this challenge. Additionally, studies investigating diagnostic potential profiles patients, considering microbial markers might aid early detection stratification By integrating insights from preclinical clinical studies, aim shed light on microbiome modulation adjunct tool, paving way for personalized approaches optimize outcomes.

Depression, projected to be the predominant contributor global disease burden, is a complex condition with diverse symptoms including mood disturbances and cognitive impairments. Traditional treatments such as medication psychotherapy often fall short, prompting pursuit of alternative interventions. Recent research has highlighted significant role gut microbiota in mental health, influencing emotional neural regulation. Fecal transplantation (FMT), infusion fecal matter from healthy donor into patient, emerges promising strategy ameliorate depressive by restoring microbial balance. The microbial-gut-brain (MGB) axis represents critical pathway through which potentially rectify dysbiosis modulate neuropsychiatric outcomes.
