Sex differences in gut microbiota, hypertension, and cardiovascular risk.

Eur J Pharmacol

January 2025

Center for Hypertension and Precision Medicine, Microbiome Consortium, Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, University of Toledo College of Medicine and Life Sciences, OH, USA. Electronic address:

The intricate ecosystem of the gut microbiome exhibits sex-specific differences, influencing the susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Imbalance within the gut microbiome compromises the gut barrier, activates inflammatory pathways, and alters the production of metabolites, all of which initiate chronic diseases including CVD. In particular, the interplay between lifestyle choices, hormonal changes, and metabolic byproducts uniquely affects sex-specific gut microbiomes, potentially shaping the risk profiles for hypertension and CVD differently in men and women.

As a consequence of COI barcoding hundreds of reared specimens of what appeared to be Leurus caeruliventris, a parasitoid of leaf-rolling Crambidae (Lepidoptera) from the Area de Conservación Guanacaste, northwestern Costa Rica, and matching them with their host caterpillars and morphological traits, we describe ten new sympatric species and redescribe L. caeruliventris. The new species, authored by Zuñiga & Valerio, are: Leurus billeberhardi, L.

Article Synopsis
  • The Baikal seal, a freshwater seal unique to Lake Baikal, has a long history of being landlocked and is classified as a species of least concern due to its stable population despite its limited habitat.
  • Recent research has expanded on genetic studies by sequencing the genomes of six Baikal seals alongside other seal species, enhancing our understanding of their evolutionary relationships.
  • Findings indicate that the genetic diversity of the Baikal seal is comparable to that of other seals, prompting calls for further research on genomic diversity across its range.

Nutrition is an essential part of therapy for type 1 diabetes and is constantly evolving, offering growing opportunities to prevent this disease, slow down its evolution, and mitigate it. An attempt was made to bring together the current state of knowledge. In the path from the preclinical phase of the disease to its clinical onset, there is a phase known as the "honeymoon period" or partial remission, where different possible dietary options for combatting this disease have been presented.

Diagnosing and engineering gut microbiomes.

EMBO Mol Med

November 2024

Laboratory for Mucosal Immunology, Institute for Food, Nutrition and Health, Department of Health Sciences and Technology, ETH Zurich, Zürich, Switzerland.

Article Synopsis
  • The gut microbiome's health impact is significant, influenced by microbes, nutrients, and toxins from birth onwards, with research supporting this connection.
  • Despite promising studies, there are limited successful real-world examples of microbiome engineering improving health outcomes.
  • A framework is proposed to transform gut microbiome engineering from a trial-and-error method to a structured medical intervention, emphasizing accurate diagnosis and technology development.
