However, there is limited evidence regarding impact on regulation such parameters females fed a high-fat diet. Here, landscape were evaluated mouse model diet-induced obesity pregnancy. results show protected against harmful effects diet as disruptor permeability; thus, was two-fold reduction FITC-dextran passage to bloodstream compared non-pregnant mice (p < 0.01). This accompanied by an increased expression barrier-related transcripts, particularly ileum.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic (NAFLD), is characterized by hepatic fat accumulation metabolic dysfunction. The rising prevalence of MAFLD, especially among Asians, may be associated with changes in gut microbiota. We investigated microbiota characteristics and potential mechanisms leading to MAFLD development according enterotypes. Case-control studies examining the composition between non-MAFLD participants were searched public databases until July 2023. Gut was categorized into two enterotypes principal component analysis.

Introduction Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a growing global health challenge, characterized by significant variability in progression and clinical outcomes. While the gut microbiome increasingly recognized as key factor development, its role associated mechanisms remains unclear. This study systematically investigated microbiota’s MASLD cirrhosis progression, focusing on individual bacterial strains, microbial community dynamics, functional characteristics across different enterotypes. Methods Publicly available next-generation sequencing(NGS) datasets from healthy individuals patients with were analyzed. Enterotype classification was performed using principal component analysis, advanced bioinformatics tools, including Linear Discriminant Analysis Effect Size (LEfSe), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Deep Cross-Fusion Networks for Genome-Scale Identification of Pathogens (DCiPatho), to identify differentially abundant microbes potential pathogens. Microbial co-occurrence networks predictions via PICRUSt2 revealed distinct patterns Results discussion The Prevotella-dominated(ET-P) group exhibited 33% higher rate than Bacteroides-dominated(ET-B) group. Unique signatures identified: Escherichia albertii Veillonella nakazawae ET-B, while Prevotella copri linked MASLD. In ET-P, hominis Clostridium saudiense significantly cirrhosis. Functional analysis reduced biosynthesis fatty acids, proteins, short-chain acids (SCFAs), coupled increased lipopolysaccharide(LPS) production altered secondary bile acid metabolism patients. There differences enterotypes providing critical insights developing personalized microbiome-targeted interventions mitigate progression.

Supplementation with probiotics has emerged as a promising therapeutic tool to manage metabolic diseases. We investigated the effects of mix Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis LA804 and Lactobacillus gasseri LA806 on high-fat (HF) diet -induced disease in mice. probiotic HF diet-fed mice (HF-Pr2) reduced weight fat mass gains, decreased hepatic lipid accumulation, lowered plasma triglyceride peak during an oral tolerance test. At molecular level, protected against HF-induced rise mRNA levels genes related uptake, metabolism, storage liver white adipose tissues, strongly inflammation tissue oxidative stress liver. Regarding intestinal homeostasis, did not prevent gut permeability but slightly modified microbiota composition without correcting dysbiosis induced by diet. Probiotic supplementation also cecal bile acid (BA) profile, leading increase Farnesoid-X-Receptor (FXR) antagonist/agonist ratio between BA species. In agreement, HF-Pr2 exhibited strong inhibition FXR signaling pathway ileum, which was associated metabolism protection. This is consistent recent reports proposing that activity could be potent mechanism overcome disorders. Altogether, our results demonstrate evaluated, when administered preventively limit obesity disorders, likely through tract.
