Our previous studies have shown that DPUL-S164-derived indole-3-lactic acid (ILA) ameliorates intestinal epithelial cell barrier injury by activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathways and promoting tight junction protein expression. This study further explored the crucial substances of DPUL-S164 in alleviating intestinal barrier damage in mice through a dextran sodium sulfate-induced ulcerative colitis mouse model. Compared to dead DPUL-S164 (D-S164), live DPUL-S164 (S164) and its tryptophan metabolite, ILA, showed an effective ameliorating effect on the intestinal barrier injury of mice treated by antibiotic cocktail and sodium dextran sulfate, suggesting that the crucial substances of DPUL-S164 ameliorating intestinal barrier injury are its extracellular metabolites. Furthermore, S164 and its tryptophan metabolite, ILA, ameliorate intestinal barrier injury and suppress intestinal inflammation by activating the AhR-Nrf2 pathway and inhibiting the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway. These results suggest that DPUL-S164 ameliorates intestinal epithelial barrier damage in mice, primarily by producing ILA as a ligand to activate the AhR pathway.

Irinotecan (CPT11) chemotherapy-induced diarrhea affects a substantial cancer population due to -glucuronidase (Gus) converting 10--glucuronyl-7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38G) to toxic 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38). Existing interventions primarily address inflammation and Gus enzyme inhibition, neglecting epithelial repair and Gus-expressing bacteria. Herein, we discovered that dehydrodiisoeugenol (DDIE), isolated from nutmeg, alleviates CPT11-induced intestinal mucositis alongside a synergistic antitumor effect with CPT11 by improving weight loss, colon shortening, epithelial barrier dysfunction, goblet cells and intestinal stem cells (ISCs) loss, and wound-healing.

Large-scale studies indicate a strong relationship between the gut microbiome, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Here, a higher abundance of the type III secretion system (T3SS) virulence factors of Enterobacteriaceae/Escherichia-Shigella in patients with T2DM-related-ASCVD, which correlates with their atherosclerotic stenosis is reported. Overexpression of T3SS via Citrobacter rodentium (CR) infection in Apoe-/- T2DM mice exacerbated atherosclerotic lesion formation and increased gut permeability.

Background: The conversion of primary bile acids to secondary bile acids by the gut microbiota has been implicated in colonic inflammation. This study investigated the role of gut microbiota related bile acid metabolism in colonic inflammation in both patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and a murine model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis.
Methods: Bile acids in fecal samples from patients with IBD and DSS-induced colitis mice, with and without antibiotic treatment, were analyzed using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS).

This paper explored the protective effect and potential mechanism of Shouhui Tongbian Capsules(SHTB) on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion rat models. Rats were randomly divided into sham surgery group, model group, low-dose SHTB group(0.2 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), high-dose SHTB group(SHTB g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), and an edaravone positive drug group(5.
