The different viral characteristics of the Omicron variant SARS-CoV-2 have fundamentally changed people's view concerning COVID-19. Many alternative sampling approaches and therapies been developed that may be better suited to variant, such as a saline gargle detect nasal irrigation with chlorine dioxide. mechanisms these methods are briefly summarized here. Development novel sampling/therapeutic for COVID-19 is crucial due uncertain future emerging respiratory viruses, their efficiency/safety needs verified in post-pandemic era since infections tract similar route transmission SARS-CoV-2.

Objectives Hypertension is one of the most important risk factors for cardio-cerebral vascular diseases, which brings a heavy economic burden to society and becomes major public health problem. At present, pathogenesis hypertension unclear. Increasing evidence has proven that closely related dysbiosis gut microbiota. We briefly reviewed relevant literature on microbiota summarize relationship between hypertension, linked antihypertension effects drugs with their modulation microbiota, discussed potential mechanisms various microbes active metabolites alleviate thus providing new research ideas development drugs.Methods The was collected systematically from scientific database, including Elsevier, PubMed, Web Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Baidu Scholar, as well other sources, such classic books herbal medicine.Results can lead imbalance barrier dysfunction, increased harmful bacteria hydrogen sulfide lipopolysaccharide, decreased beneficial short-chain fatty acids, intestinal tight junction proteins permeability. Gut occurrence hypertension. main methods regulate include fecal transplantation, supplementation probiotics, antibiotics, diet exercise, antihypertensive drugs, natural medicines.Conclusions Investigating correlation may help reveal perspective great significance prevention treatment

Intestinal macrophages are the main participants of intestinal immune homeostasis and inflammation. Under different environmental stimuli, can be polarized into classical activated pro-inflammatory phenotype (M1) alternative anti-inflammatory (M2). Its polarization state is “guide” to promoting development regression normal circumstances, protect intestine from inflammatory damage. However, under influence some genetic factors, imbalance M1/M2 will lead in regulation inflammation transform physiological response pathological injury. In UC patients, disorder closely related macrophage polarization. Therefore, restoring balance may a potentially valuable therapeutic strategy for UC. Evidence has shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) positive effects on by This review summarizes clinical evidence TCM UC, vital role pathophysiology potential mechanism regulating treatment We hope this provide new enlightenment treatment, fundamental research, research

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has posed a global health crisis. Increasing evidence underlines the key role of competent immune responses in resisting SARS-CoV-2 infection and manifests disastrous consequence host dysregulation. Elucidating mechanisms responsible for deregulated immunity COVID-19 may provide theoretical basis further research on new treatment modalities. Gut microbiota comprises trillions microorganisms colonizing human gastrointestinal tract vital homeostasis gut-lung crosstalk. Particularly, can lead to disruption gut equilibrium, condition called dysbiosis. Due its regulatory effect immunity, recently received considerable attention field immunopathology. Imbalanced fuel progression through production bioactive metabolites, intestinal metabolism, enhancement cytokine storm, exaggeration inflammation, regulation adaptive other aspects. In this review, we an overview alterations patients, their effects individuals’ susceptibility viral progression. Moreover, summarize currently available data critical bidirectional between microbes SARS-CoV-2-induced pathology, highlight immunomodulatory contributing pathogenesis. addition, discuss therapeutic benefits future perspectives microbiota-targeted interventions including faecal transplantation (FMT), bacteriotherapy traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment.

Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most common malignant tumor of biliary system with worst prognosis. Even after radical surgery, majority patients GBC have difficulty achieving a clinical cure. The risk recurrence remains more than 65%, and overall 5-year survival rate less 5%. gut microbiota refers to variety microorganisms living in human intestine, including bacteria, viruses fungi, which profoundly affect host state general health, disease even cancer. Over past few decades, substantial evidence has supported that plays critical role promoting progression GBC. In this review, we summarize functions, molecular mechanisms recent advances intestinal We focus on driving bacteria pivotal pathways, such as virulence factors, metabolites derived from chronic inflammatory responses ecological niche remodeling. Additionally, emphasize high level correlation between especially EBV Candida spp., general, review not only provides solid theoretical basis for close relationship but also highlights potential research directions further future.

People are an organic unity. Every organ of our body doesn't exist alone. They a part and have important connections with other tissues or organs. The gut-lung axis is typical example. Here, we reviewed the current research progress axis. main cross-talk between intestine lungs was sorted out, i.e. specific interaction content contained in We determine relatively clear concept for axis, that is, gut interact each through microorganisms immune system to achieve bidirectional regulation. communicate mainly symbiotic microbes, these two pathways influence other. portal vein mesenteric lymphatics primary communication channels lungs. also summarized effects pneumonia, including Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP), on intestinal microbes function discussed mechanism this effect.
