Synopsis of recent research by authors named "ZiLi Lei"
- Zili Lei's recent research predominantly addresses the interactions between gut microbiota, metabolic disorders, and intestinal health, emphasizing the influence of specific compounds from traditional Chinese medicine on these processes.
- Key findings indicate that the downregulation of proteins like EpCAM in the intestinal epithelium can lead to increased susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease and other gut-related disorders, while compounds like Ginsenoside Rb1 and Sodium sulphate show potential in ameliorating metabolic conditions and improving gut health.
- Lei's studies also explore the impact of environmental factors during pregnancy, such as exposure to 4-vinylcyclohexene diepoxide, on gut microbiota composition and metabolic health in offspring, highlighting the importance of microbial balance in developmental outcomes.
