LC-MS analysis revealed that content rare ginsenosides increased markedly after treatment. HG significantly attenuated CTX-induced hepatic histopathological injury in mice. Western blotting showed untreated (UG) regulated Nrf2/HO-1 TLR4/MAPK pathways. Importantly, these results may be relevant to modulation intestinal flora. UG short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs)-producing bacteria Lactobacillus reduced LPS-producing Bacteroides Parabacteroides. These changes flora affected levels TNF-α, LPS SCFAs.

ABSTRACT Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) could significantly alter the recipient's gut bacteria composition and attenuate obesity obesity‐related metabolic syndromes. DL‐norvaline is a nonproteinogenic amino acid possesses anti‐obesity potential. However, specific mechanisms by which might mediate beneficial effects of have not been completely elucidated. In this study, DL‐norvaline‐mediated FMT upregulated ( Clostridia_UCG_014 , Christensenellales Bacilli Ileibacterium Dubosiella Lactobacillus Muribaculaceae Bacteroidaceae ) downregulated harmful Tuzzerella Marinifilaceae ), further intestinal inflammation, oxidative stress, barrier were alleviated as well short chain fatty acids levels increased, thus alleviating glucose insulin metabolism, improving biochemical indexes energy metabolism decreasing body weight gain tissue weight. heat‐inactivated did demonstrate any those improvements in obese mice. Notably, both increased being signature alterations to marker caused DL‐norvaline. Therefore, transmissible via FMT. This study highlighted pivotal involvement development provided novel insight into underlying FMT, thereby potentially enhancing efficacy refinement utilization.

The effects of Laminaria japonica fucoidan (LF) on immune regulation and intestinal microflora in cyclophosphamide (CTX)-treated mice were investigated this work. Results indicated that LF significantly enhanced the spleen thymus indices, promoted lymphocyte peritoneal macrophages proliferation, increased immune-related cytokines production serum. Moreover, could regulate flora composition, increasing abundance Lactobacillaceae Alistipes , inhibiting Erysipelotrichia Turicibacter Romboutsia Peptostreptococcaceae Faecalibaculum . These results positively correlated with characteristics. Overall, be useful as a new potential strategy to mitigate CTX immunosuppression microbiota disorders.

Low molecular weight (6.5 kDa) Glycyrrhiza polysaccharide (GP) exhibits good immunomodulatory activity, however, the mechanism underlying GP-mediated regulation of immunity and gut microbiota remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to reveal mechanisms using cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced immunosuppressed intestinal mucosal injury models. GP reversed CTX-induced structural damage increased number goblet cells, CD4+, CD8+ T lymphocytes, mucin content, particularly by maintaining balance helper lymphocyte 1/helper 2 (Th1/Th2). Moreover, alleviated immunosuppression down-regulating extracellular regulated protein kinases/p38/nuclear factor kappa-Bp50 pathways increasing short-chain fatty acids level secretion cytokines, including interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-4, IL-2, IL-10, IL-22, transforming growth factor-β3 immunoglobulin (Ig) M, IgG secretory A. treatment total species diversity microbiota. Microbiota analysis showed that promoted proliferation beneficial bacteria, Muribaculaceae_unclassified, Alistipes, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Ligilactobacillus, Clostridia_vadinBB60_group, reduced abundance Proteobacteria CTX-derived bacteria (Clostridiales_unclassified, Candidatus_Arthromitus, Firmicutes_unclassified, Clostridium).

Cyclophosphamide (CTX), a common anticancer drug, can cause variety of side effects such as immunosuppression and intestinal mucosal injury. Polysaccharides are the major bioactive components roots Millettia Speciosa Champ have gained attention for their immunomodulatory activity. This study was designed to evaluate effect polysaccharide (MSCP) on CTX-induced mice possible mechanism. The results showed that MSCP attenuated decrease in body weight immune organ indices promoted secretion immune-related cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, IL-10, TNF-α, IgG). Meanwhile, restored morphology, increased ratio villus height/crypt depth (V/C), improved number goblet cells mucins expression. At mRNA level, activated TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB p65 pathway enhanced expression genes related integrity (Occludin1, Claudin1, MUC-2). In addition, prebiotic microbial community diversity, regulated relative abundance dominant microbiota from phylum level genus gut dysbiosis, short-chain fatty acid production mice. Based present findings, may modulate response depending enhancing health, suggesting holds promise promising immunostimulant functional foods drugs.
