Gut microbiota is emerging as a key regulator of many disease conditions and its dysregulation implicated in the pathogenesis several gastrointestinal extraintestinal disorders. More recently, gut microbiome alterations have been linked to neurodegeneration through increasingly defined brain axis, opening possibility for new microbiota-based therapeutic options. Although studies conducted unravel possible relationship between Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) progression, diagnostic potential approaches aiming at restoring eubiosis remain be fully addressed. In this narrative review, we briefly summarize role homeostasis health disease, present evidence AD patients. Based on these observations, then discuss how dysbiosis might exploited tool early advanced stages, examine prebiotics, probiotics, fecal transplantation, diets complementary interventions thus offering insights into diagnosis treatment devastating progressive disease.

A consequence of our progressively ageing global population is the increasing prevalence worldwide age-related cognitive decline and dementia. In absence effective therapeutic interventions, identifying risk factors associated with becomes increasingly vital. Novel perspectives suggest that a dynamic bidirectional communication system between gut, its microbiome, central nervous system, commonly referred to as microbiota-gut-brain axis, may be contributing factor for health disease. However, exact mechanisms remain undefined. Microbial-derived metabolites produced in gut can cross intestinal epithelial barrier, enter systemic circulation trigger physiological responses both directly indirectly affecting functions. Dysregulation this (i.e., dysbiosis) modulate cytotoxic metabolite production, promote neuroinflammation negatively impact cognition. review, we explore critical connections microbial-derived (secondary bile acids, trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), tryptophan derivatives others) their influence upon function neurodegenerative disorders, particular interest less-explored role decline.

It characterized by two pathological hallmarks, extracellular deposits amyloid beta (Aβ) intraneuronal Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). Yet, those hallmarks do not explain full pathology seen with AD, suggesting involvement other mechanisms. Neuroinflammation could offer another explanation for progression disease.

Abstract The gut microbiota represents a diverse and dynamic population of microorganisms that can influence the health host. Increasing evidence supports role as key player in pathogenesis neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Unfortunately, mechanisms behind interplay between pathogens AD are still elusive. It is known bacteria‐derived outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) act natural carriers virulence factors central players bacteria. Helicobacter pylori ( H. ) common gastric pathogen infection has been associated with an increased risk to develop AD. Here, we first shed light on OMVs derived from brain healthy conditions pathology case Our results reveal cross biological barriers, eventually reaching brain. Once brain, these taken up by astrocytes, which induce activation glial cells neuronal dysfunction, ultimately leading exacerbated amyloid‐β cognitive decline. Mechanistically, identified critical for complement component 3 (C3)‐C3a receptor (C3aR) signalling mediating interaction microglia neurons upon presence OMVs. Taken together, our study reveals detrimental effect functionality accelerates development via C3‐C3aR signalling.

The brain is particularly susceptible to oxidative damage which a key feature of several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's (PD) and Huntington's disease. shuttling glutathione (GSH) precursors from astrocytes neurons has been shown be instrumental for the neuroprotective activity. Here, we revealed that short chain fatty acids (SCFA), have related AD PD, could promote glutamate-glutamine shuttle potentially resist in at cellular level. Furthermore, performed nine-month-long dietary SCFA supplementations APPswe/PS1dE9 (APP/PS1) mice, showed it reshaped homeostasis microbiota alleviated cognitive impairment by reducing Aβ deposition tau hyperphosphorylation. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis hippocampus can enhance astrocyte-neuron communication shuttle, mainly acting on astrocyte vivo. Collectively, our findings indicate long-term early aging stage regulate neuroenergetics alleviate AD, providing promising direction development new drug.
