Herbal medicine has become an area of growing global scientific interest. The prime objective this study was to investigate the protective role Edgeworthia gardneri (Wall.) Meisn (EGM polysaccharide) against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver injury in mice. Forty-five ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups (n = 15): IC, IM, and IT. IT group received EGM polysaccharide solution (50 mg/kg) daily, while IC IM administered equivalent volume normal saline. intraperitoneally injected with a mixture CCl4 olive oil at 1:1 (v/v) (2 mL/kg) every 3 days. Our results showed that significantly (p < 0.05) reduced pathological hepatic alterations increased index caused by CCl4. Moreover, therapy 0.001) levels antioxidant enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), superoxide dismutase (SOD), total capacity (T-AOC) malondialdehyde (MDA) content dose-dependent manner. Notably, alleviated inflammatory cascades evidenced decreased serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF-α) under administration. Furthermore, 16 s rRNA gene sequencing exhibited abundance probiotics bacteria, Unclassified_Lachnospiraceae, pathogenic bacterial texas like Brevundimonas Candidatus_Nitrocosmicu. Conclusively, protects CCl4-induced oxidative stress inflammation alleviates through beneficial gut microbiota modulations. current suggests is effective agent counteracting damage.

The breast tissue microbiome has been increasingly recognized as a potential contributor to cancer development and progression. However, inconsistencies in microbial composition across studies have hindered the identification of definitive signatures. We conducted systematic review meta-analysis 11 using 16S rRNA sequencing characterize bacterial 1260 fresh samples, including normal, mastitis-affected, benign, cancer-adjacent, cancerous tissues. Studies published until 31 December 2023 were included if they analyzed human Illumina short-read with sufficient metadata, while non-human non-breast tissues, non-English articles, those lacking metadata or alternative methods excluded. also incorporated data from Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA-BRCA) cohort enhance our analyses. Our identified Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteriota, Bacteroidota dominant phyla tissue, Staphylococcus Corynebacterium frequently detected studies. While diversity was similar between cancer-adjacent both exhibited lower compared normal mastitis-affected Variability genera observed primer sets studies, emphasizing need for standardized methodologies research. An analysis TCGA-BRCA confirmed dominance Corynebacterium, which associated proliferation-related gene expression programs. Notably, high abundance 4.1-fold increased mortality risk. These findings underscore clinical relevance tumor progression emphasize importance methodological consistency. Future establish causal relationships, elucidate underlying mechanisms, assess microbiome-targeted interventions are warranted.

The oral microbiome, studied by sampling the saliva or rinse, has been long thought to have diagnostic capacity for head and neck cancers (HNC). However, previous reports on HNC microbiome provide inconsistent results. aim of this study is consolidate these datasets determine microbial composition between patients healthy premalignant individuals. We analyzed 16 published cancer (HNC) short-read 16S rRNA sequencing datasets, specifically targeting V3V4, V4 V4V5 regions. These included rinse samples from donors with HNC, as well donors. Differences in diversities abundance were determined. displayed lower alpha diversity than In contrast, opposite trend was observed samples. Beta largely similar across different patient types. Similar phyla detected all samples, but proportions dependent sample type (i.e. rinse) primer set utilised sequencing. Neisseria, Leptotrichia Megasphaera elevated saliva, while Mycoplasma saliva. Oral enrichment Fusobacterium, Veillonella, Alloprevotella, Campylobacter had conflicting sparse partial least squares discriminant analysis model performed effectively discriminating using V3V4 (AUC = 0.888), 0.928), poor discriminative 0.688). conclusion, our meta-analysis highlighted limitations sequencing, particularly due variations batches, sets V4), Hence, caution should be exercised when interpreting results studies, especially types are used.
