Human serum albumins (HSAs) are synthesized in the liver and most abundant proteins plasma of healthy human. They play an important role pathophysiological processes even whole organism. Previous studies have mainly focused on regulation HSAs' expression. However, with progress research recent years, it has been found that content circulating albumin cannot fully reflect biological function itself. Given aforementioned fact, concept 'effective concentration' proposed. It refers to is structurally functionally intact. Alterations molecular structure reported a variety diseases, including disease. Moreover, these changes verified affect progression oxidative stress‑related diseases. link between not elaborated, mechanisms by which different forms disease also need be further investigated. In this context, present review expounded characteristics functions albumin, summarized types post‑translational modification discussed their functional possible non‑alcoholic fatty disease, alcoholic hepatitis, viral hepatitis stages cirrhosis. This will help improve understanding development provide more comprehensive physiological basis for treatment.

The gut microbiota is now considered as one of the key elements contributing to regulation host health. Virtually all our body sites are colonised by microbes suggesting different types crosstalk with organs. Because development molecular tools and techniques (ie, metagenomic, metabolomic, lipidomic, metatranscriptomic), complex interactions occurring between microorganisms progressively being deciphered. Nowadays, deviations linked many diseases including obesity, type 2 diabetes, hepatic steatosis, intestinal bowel (IBDs) several cancer. Thus, that various pathways involved in immunity, energy, lipid glucose metabolism affected. In this review, specific attention given provide a critical evaluation current understanding field. Numerous mechanisms explaining how bacteria might be causally protection or onset discussed. We examine well-established metabolites short-chain fatty acids, bile trimethylamine N-oxide) extend more recently identified actors endocannabinoids, bioactive lipids, phenolic-derived compounds, advanced glycation end products enterosynes) their receptors such peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) gamma (PPARγ), aryl hydrocarbon (AhR), G protein-coupled GPR41, GPR43, GPR119, Takeda 5). Altogether, complexity aspects linking health will help set basis for novel therapies already developed.

The human gut possesses millions of microbes that define a complex microbial community. microbiota has been characterized as vital organ forming its multidirectional connecting axis with other organs. This is responsible for host-microbe interactions and works by communicating the neural, endocrinal, humoral, immunological, metabolic pathways. microorganisms (mostly non-pathogenic) have symbiotic host relationships are usually associated host’s immunity to defend against pathogenic invasion. dysbiosis therefore linked various diseases, such anxiety, depression, hypertension, cardiovascular obesity, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer. mechanism leading disease development crucial correlation microbiota, products, immune response in humans. understanding mechanisms over exerts positive or harmful impacts remains largely undefined. However, many recent clinical studies conducted worldwide demonstrating relation specific species eubiosis health disease. A comprehensive interactions, role updates on subject striking topics current review. We also addressed daunting challenges must be brought under control maintain treat diseases.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the common metabolic diseases in world. Due to rise morbidity and mortality, it has become a global health problem. To date, T2DM still cannot be cured, its intervention measures mainly focus on glucose control as well prevention treatment related complications. Interestingly, gut microbiota plays an important role development diseases, especially T2DM. In this review, we introduce characteristics population, animal models, diabetic addition, describe molecular mechanisms linking host T2DM, including molecules that induce dysbiosis, immune inflammatory responses, microbial metabolites involved pathogenesis. These findings suggest can treat complications by remodeling through interventions such drugs, probiotics, prebiotics, fecal transplantation (FMT) diets.

Dietary pollution by polystyrene microplastics (MPs) can cause hepatic injuries and microbial dysbiosis. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the major polyphenol in green tea, exerts beneficial effects on liver modulating gut microbiota. However, role of microbiota MPs-induced protective effect EGCG have not been clarified. Here, 5 μm MPs were orally administered to mice induce injuries. Subsequently, antibiotic cocktail (ABX) fecal transplant (FMT) experiments performed investigate underlying mechanisms. Additionally, was explore its protection against Our results showed that activated systemic inflammation, promoted fibrosis, altered metabolome; meanwhile, damaged homeostasis disturbing microbiome, promoting colonic impairing intestinal barrier. Notably, reduced abundance probiotics Akkermansia, Mucispirillum, Faecalibaculum while increasing pathogenic Tuzzerella. Interestingly, elimination mitigated inflammation barrier impairment. Moreover, ABX ameliorated but fibrosis. Correspondingly, from MPs-administered induced colonic, systemic, their profibrosis observed. Finally, elevated effectively repressed inflammation. remodeling metabolome also attenuated EGCG. These findings illustrated contributed injuries, could serve as a potential prevention strategy for these adverse consequences.

Abstract Bile acids participate in the intestinal emulsion, digestion, and absorption of lipids fat-soluble vitamins. When present high concentrations, as cholestatic liver diseases, bile can damage cells cause inflammation. After discovery receptors about two decades ago, are considered signaling molecules. Besides regulating acid, xenobiotic, nutrient metabolism, their have shown immunomodulatory properties been proposed therapeutic targets for inflammatory diseases liver. This review focuses on acid–related pathways that affect inflammation provides an overview preclinical clinical applications modulators these treatment autoimmune diseases.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its progressive form nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) comprise a spectrum of chronic diseases in the global population that can lead to end-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). NAFLD is closely linked metabolic syndrome, comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, obesity insulin resistance aggravate disease, while promotes cardiovascular risk affected patients. The pathomechanisms are multifaceted, combining hepatic factors including lipotoxicity, mechanisms cell death inflammation with extrahepatic disturbance dysbiosis. Nuclear receptors (NRs) family ligand-controlled transcription regulate glucose, fat cholesterol homeostasis modulate innate immune functions, macrophages. In parallel derangement NAFLD, altered NR signaling frequently observed might be involved pathogenesis. Therapeutically, clinical data indicate single drug targets thus far have been insufficient for reaching patient-relevant endpoints. Therefore, combinatorial treatment strategies multiple or drugs actions could possibly bring advantages, by providing more holistic therapeutic approach. this context, peroxisome proliferator-activated (PPARs) other NRs great interest they wide-ranging multi-organ activities associated NASH progression regression. review, we summarize recent advances understanding pathogenesis focusing on death, immunometabolism role NRs. We outline novel discuss remaining challenges.
