Resveratrol (RES) has been reported to prevent hyperuricemia (HUA); however, its effect on intestinal uric acid metabolism remains unclear. This study evaluated the impact of RES in mice with HUA induced by a high-fat diet (HFD). Moreover, we revealed underlying mechanism through metagenomics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), and 16S ribosomal RNA analysis. We demonstrated that reduced serum acid, creatinine, urea nitrogen, urinary protein levels, improved glomerular atrophy, unclear renal tubule structure, fibrosis, inflammation. The results also showed increased degradation. significantly changed flora composition HFD-fed enriching beneficial bacteria degrade reducing harmful promote inflammation, improving microbial function via upregulation purine metabolism. FMT further is essential for HUA, Lactobacillus may play key role this process. present alleviates HFD-induced injury regulating gut acid.

Colorectal cancer is a prevalent malignant tumor with complex and diverse pathogenesis. In recent years, natural products have shown promising application prospects as sources of anticancer drugs. BBR, class benzoquinoline alkaloids extracted from various plants, widely used in disease treatments owing to its pharmacological activities, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-angiogenesis properties. Research has demonstrated that BBR exerts an anti-Salmonella -Escherichia coli infection effect, attenuating inflammatory reactions by inhibiting harmful bacteria. During the stage colorectal precancerous lesions, inhibits activity cell cyclin regulating PI3K/AKT, MAPK, Wnt signaling pathways, thereby decelerating cycle progression polyp or adenoma cells. Moreover, inhibitory effect on primarily occurs through regulation cycle, anti-angiogenesis, gut microbiota, antioxidant pathways. The specific involved pathways include MPK/ERK, NF-kB, EGFR encompassing Bcl-2 family proteins, vascular endothelial growth factor, superoxide dismutase. This study reviews summarizes, for first time, mechanisms action carcinogenesis process cancer, providing novel insights clinical intestinal diseases.

Low molecular weight chitosan selenium nanoparticles (LCS-SeNPs), a biologically active compound derived from polysaccharides, have demonstrated potential in addressing obesity. However, the mechanism through which LCS-SeNPs alleviate high-fat diet (HFD)-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains unclear. Our results elucidated that significantly inhibited fat accumulation and markedly improved intestinal barrier by increasing mucus secretion goblet cells. Moreover, reshaped flora composition abundance of mucus-associated microbiota (Bifidobacterium, Akkermansia, Muribaculaceae_unclassified) decreasing obesity-contributed bacterium (Anaerotruncus, Lachnoclostridium, Proteus). The modulation influenced several metabolic pathways, including bile acid secretion, purine metabolites, tryptophan derivation. Meanwhile, glycocholic tauro-beta-muricholic were reduced LCS-SeNP group. study suggests crucial role metabolism, providing new theoretical foundation for utilizing polysaccharides intervention HFD-induced NAFLD.

As a prevalent metabolic disorder, the increasing incidence of diabetes imposes significant burden on global healthcare. Flavonoids in natural phytochemical products exhibit notable hypoglycemic properties, making them potential alternatives for treatment. This article summarizes properties flavonoid subcategories studied recent years, including flavones, isoflavones, flavonols, flavanols, and others. The relevant targets signal pathways, such as α-amylase, α-glucosidase, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT), PKR-like endoplasmic reticulum (PERK)/eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α)/activation transcription 4 (ATF4)/C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), etc., are also elaborated. Additionally, flavonoids have been demonstrated to modulate gut microbiota its metabolites. Through aforementioned mechanisms, mainly suppress carbohydrate metabolism gluconeogenesis; facilitate glucose uptake, glycogenesis, secretion; mitigate resistance, oxidative stress, inflammation, etc. Notably, several studies indicated that certain displayed synergistic effects. In conclusion, this provides comprehensive review effects investigated aiming offer theoretical insights their further exploration.

Abstract Overconsumption of added sugars has been pointed out as a major culprit in the increasing rates obesity worldwide, contributing to rising popularity non-caloric sweeteners. In order satisfy growing demand, industrial efforts have made purify sweet-tasting molecules found natural sweetener stevia, which are characterized by sweet taste free unpleasant aftertaste. Although use artificial sweeteners raised many concerns regarding metabolic health, impact purified stevia components on latter remains poorly studied. The objective this project was evaluate two rebaudioside A and D (RebA RebD), development obesity, insulin resistance, hepatic bile acid profile, gut microbiota mouse model diet-induced obesity. Male C57BL/6 J mice were fed an obesogenic high-fat/high-sucrose (HFHS) diet orally treated with 50 mg/kg RebA, RebD or vehicle (water) for 12 weeks. An additional group chow-fed included healthy reference. At weeks 10 12, oral glucose tolerance tests performed. Liver lipids content analyzed. Whole-genome shotgun sequencing performed profile microbiota. Bile acids measured feces, plasma, liver. lipid gene expression As compared HFHS-vehicle treatment group, administered showed reduced weight gain, evidenced decreased visceral adipose tissue weight. triglycerides cholesterol from RebD-treated lower peroxidation decreased. Interestingly, administration associated significant enrichment Faecalibaculum rodentium increased secondary metabolism. Moreover, level lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP). Neither RebA nor treatments homeostasis. daily consumption no detrimental effects health. contrast, reduce adiposity, alleviate steatosis peroxidation, decrease LBP, marker endotoxemia
