Background: It has been shown that dysbiosis, or dysfunction of the gastrointestinal (gut) microbiome is associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we aimed to expand on beyond our previously reported findings of the gut microbiome associating with AD and explore if the gut microbiome is predictive of cognitive performance in individuals with AD. We sought to identity what cognitive domains are associated with the microbiome in our cohort of AD patients and healthy controls without dementia.

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal disease. Recently, an increasing number of studies have shown that Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), widely distributed on the surface of a variety of epithelial cells (ECs) and immune sentinel cells in the gut, plays a vital role in developing IBS.
Objectives: We sought to synthesize the existing literature on TLR4 in IBS and inform further study.
