Limonin alleviates high-fat diet-induced dyslipidemia by regulating the intestinal barrier the microbiota-related ILC3-IL22-IL22R pathway.

High-fat diet (HFD)-induced dyslipidemia is frequently accompanied by gut microbiota dysbiosis and a compromised gut barrier. Enhancing the intestinal barrier function emerges as a potential therapeutic approach for dyslipidemia. The ILC3-IL22-IL22R pathway, which responds to dietary and microbial signals, has not only attracted attention for its crucial role in maintaining the intestinal barrier, but recent reports have also suggested its potential in regulating lipid metabolism.
