Abstract There are more than seven million premature deaths every year linked to air pollution effects. The critical hazards of exposure the increased risk respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, which can boost morbidity mortality. Besides, ingested pollutants cause gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. Functional GI disorders (FGIDs) called gut-brain interaction that influence approximately one out four people have negative effects on life quality, work productivity, medical costs. Intestinal inflammation, gut microbiota, motility three important factors in pathogenesis pathways these disorders. This literature aimed clarify link between pathophysiology FGIDs. study was conducted based published studies English using scientific databases, such as PubMed, Embase, Web Science, Google Scholar, from 1990 2023. We used various combinations relevant keywords, pollution, pollutant, FGID, inflammation. findings indicated contribute etiology FGIDs through dysbiosis intestinal In addition, may alter composition diversity turn play major roles development addition steps taken by government tackle there some recommendations prevent exposure, consumption biotics a diet.

Pollution is a critical concern of modern society for its heterogeneous effects on human health, despite widespread lack awareness. Environmental pollutants promote several pathologies through different molecular mechanisms. Pollutants can affect the immune system and related pathways, perturbing regulation triggering pro-inflammatory responses. The exposure to also leads alterations in gut microbiota with decreasing abundance beneficial microbes, such as short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria, an overgrowth species. subsequent intestinal barrier dysfunction, together oxidative stress increased inflammatory responses, plays role pathogenesis gastrointestinal diseases. Moreover, encourage inflammation-dysplasia-carcinoma sequence various mechanisms, stress, dysregulation cellular signalling cell cycle impairment genomic instability. In this narrative review, we will describe interplay between pollutants, microbiota, system, focusing their relationship bowel diseases colorectal cancer. Understanding biological mechanisms underlying health-to-disease transition may allow design public health policies aimed at reducing burden disease pollutants.

Immunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has advanced considerably over the past two decades. In particular, immune checkpoint inhibitors are widely used treating NSCLC. However, overall cure and survival rates of patients with NSCLC remain low. Therefore, continuous investigation into complementary treatments is necessary to expand clinical advantages immunotherapy a larger cohort Recently, distinctive role gut microbiota (GM) in initiation, progression, dissemination attracted increasing attention. Emerging evidence indicates close relationship between lungs, known as gut–lung axis (GLA). this review, we aim provide comprehensive summary current knowledge regarding connection GM outcomes NSCLC, particular focus on recent understanding GLA. Overall, promising GM-based therapeutic strategies have been observed improve effectiveness or reduce toxicity thus advancing utilization precision medicine.

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), derived from the fermentation of dietary fiber by intestinal commensal bacteria, have demonstrated protective effects against acute lung injury (ALI) in animal models. However, findings shown variability across different studies. It is necessary to conduct a comprehensive evaluation efficacy these treatments and their consistency. This systematic review meta-analysis aimed explore SCFAs on ALI based preclinical research evidence, order provide new treatment strategies for ALI. We included studies that tested study was performed according Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A search relevant conducted PubMed, Embase, Web Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases up February 2024. The data were extracted accordance with established selection criteria, risk bias evaluated each study. total 16 articles finally meta-analysis. results indicated significantly reduced wet-to-dry weight (SMD = -2.75, 95% CI -3.46 -2.03, p < 0.00001), scores -5.07, -6.25 -3.89, myeloperoxidase -3.37, -4.05 -2.70, tumor necrosis factor-alpha -3.31, -4.45 -2.16, 0.00001) malondialdehyde -3.91, -5.37 -2.44, levels models subgroup analysis varies dosage duration treatment. can reduce inflammation oxidative stress clinical deserves further in-depth research. https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?RecordID=584008, CRD42024584008.

Background/Objectives: Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) causes significant respiratory and gastrointestinal health problems. In our prior research, we identified Lactobacillus acidophilus TW01 as a promising strain for mitigating oxidative damage, enhancing wound healing in intestinal epithelial cells, protecting bronchial cells from cigarette smoke extract. Building upon these findings, this study examines the protective effects of on lung damage induced by (PM) through gut-lung axis mouse models. Methods: This evaluated L. against PM2.5-induced injury using two vivo models (OVA sensitization combined with PM2.5 exposure DSS-induced colitis). Results: exhibited in-vivo models, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-5), modulating immune response (IgG subtypes), improving gut barrier integrity. Importantly, increased abundance beneficial bacteria (Bifidobacterium Lactobacillus). Conclusions: These findings highlight protective/therapeutic potential adverse exposure, emphasizing interplay between microbiomes overall health. The multi-faceted probiotic suggest novel, multi-pronged therapeutic strategy addressing widespread consequences air pollution.
