Weaning stress induces intestinal barrier dysfunction and immune dysregulation in mammals. Various interventions based on the modulation of microbiota have been proposed. Our study aims to explore effects co-cultures from Lactobacillus acidophilus Bacillus subtilis (FAM®) mucosal perspective metabolic function gut microbiota. A total 180 piglets were allocated three groups, i.e., a control group (C, basal diet), FAM (F, diet supplemented with 0.1% FAM), an antibiotic (A, mixtures). Here, we showed supplementation significantly increased body weight reduced diarrhea incidence, accompanied by attenuated damage, levels tight junction proteins, serum diamine oxidase (DAO) antimicrobial peptides. In addition, 16S rRNA sequencing metabolomic analysis revealed increase relative abundance Clostridiales, Ruminococcaceae, Firmicutes Muribaculaceae significant short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) butyric acid FAM-treated piglets. also CD4+ T cells SIgA+ mucosa SIgA production colon contents.

The gut virome is a dense community of viruses inhabiting the gastrointestinal tract and an integral part microbiota. coexists with other components microbiota host in dynamic equilibrium, serving as key contributor to maintenance intestinal homeostasis functions. However, this equilibrium can be interrupted certain pathological states, including inflammatory bowel disease, causing dysbiosis that may participate disease pathogenesis. Nevertheless, whether causal or bystander event requires further clarification.

The treatment outcomes of oral medications against ulcerative colitis (UC) have long been restricted by low drug accumulation in the mucosa and subsequent unsatisfactory therapeutic efficacy. Here, high-performance pluronic F127 (P127)-modified gold shell (AuS)-polymeric core nanotherapeutics loading with curcumin (CUR) is constructed. Under near-infrared irradiation, resultant P127-AuS@CURs generate transient mild photothermia (TMP; ≈42 °C, 10 min), which facilitates their penetration through colonic mucus favors multiple cellular processes, including cell internalization, lysosomal escape, controlled CUR release. This strategy relieves intracellular oxidative stress, improves wound healing, reduces immune responses polarizing proinflammatory M1-type macrophages to anti-inflammatory M2-type. Upon administration hydrogel-encapsulating plus intestinal intralumen TMP, effects acute chronic UC are demonstrated be superior those a widely used clinical drug, dexamethasone. (+ TMP) elevates proportions beneficial bacteria (e.g., Lactobacillus Lachnospiraceae), whose metabolites can also mitigate symptoms regulating genes associated antioxidation, anti-inflammation, healing. Overall, TMP offers promising approach enhance noninvasive medicines UC.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by chronic inflammation and ulceration of the intestinal inner lining, resulting in various symptoms. Sea buckthorn berries contain a bioactive compound known as sea polysaccharide (SBP). However, precise mechanisms underlying impact SBP on UC remain unclear. In this study, we investigated effects pretreatment with induced DSS. Our findings demonstrate that effectively reduces inflammation, oxidative stress, barrier damage associated colitis. To further elucidate role SBP-modulated gut microbiota UC, performed fecal transplantation (FMT) DSS-treated mice. The from SBP-treated mice exhibits notable anti-inflammatory antioxidant effects, improves colonic integrity, increases abundance beneficial bacteria, well enhancing SCFA production. Collectively, these results strongly indicate SBP-mediated amelioration attributed to its microbiota, particularly through promotion SCFA-producing bacteria subsequent elevation levels. This study provides compelling evidence supporting efficacy pre-emptive supplementation alleviating symptoms modulating thereby offering novel insights into potential regulator for relief.
