Published: February 2025

This study aimed to explore the ameliorative effect of Champ. polysaccharides (MSP) on excessive exercise-induced fatigue (EF) mice. The physicochemical characterization and antioxidant activities were analyzed. The fatigue-related biochemical indexes were determined, and gut microbiota was analyzed by 16S rDNA sequencing. The results showed that MSP primarily consists of total carbohydrates, uronic acids, and proteins. It was mainly composed of glucose, arabinose, and galactose. Additionally, MSP showed good scavenging effects on free radicals. In the experiment of EF mice, MSP intervention effectively extended the pole-climbing and swimming time, significantly increased the levels of muscle and liver glycogen, blood glucose, adenosine triphosphate, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase, while significantly decreased the levels of fatigue-related lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, and urea nitrogen. Furthermore, MSP intervention reduced harmful bacteria (, , , and ), and enriched the beneficial bacteria (, , , and ). Therefore, MSP may utilize the gut microbiota as a target to alleviate fatigue caused by excessive exercise.

Background: This study aimed to comprehensively characterize the gut microbiome and identify individual and grouped gut microbes associated with food allergy (FA) using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

Methods: Fecal samples were collected from children with IgE-mediated FA and from sex- and age-matched controls. The V3-V4 variable regions of the 16S rRNA gene of the gut microbiome were profiled using next-generation sequencing (Illumina, USA).

Background: Clostridium innocuum is a vancomycin-resistant pathobiome associated with poor clinical outcomes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In ulcerative colitis (UC), it correlates with reduced remission rates, while in Crohn's disease (CD), it is linked to creeping fat formation and intestinal strictures. Notably, some patients experience refractory or recurrent C.

Mucosal healing is the mainstream goal of modern treat-to-target strategy as it is associated with a significantly more favorable disease course in IBD patients with either ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. Recent advances in endoscopic imaging technologies have overcome the traditional concept of mucosal healing assessed with conventional white light imaging, allowing for multiple levels of endoscopic healing up to the boundaries of molecular and functional evaluation. In this review, we focused on conventional and emerging strategies to assess endoscopic healing in ulcerative colitis and ileocolonic Crohn's disease, examining their pros and cons in real life practice.

This review provides an in-depth exploration of the evolving role of immunotherapy in gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, with a particular focus on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and their associated predictive biomarkers. We present a detailed analysis of established biomarkers, such as PD-L1, microsatellite instability (MSI), tumor mutational burden (TMB), and the tumor microenvironment (TME), as well as emerging biomarkers, including gut microbiota and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The predictive value of these biomarkers in guiding clinical decision-making and optimizing immunotherapy outcomes is thoroughly discussed.

Background: Many factors are associated with the development and progression of liver fat and fibrosis; however, genetics and the gut microbiota are representative factors. Moreover, recent studies have indicated a link between host genes and the gut microbiota. This study investigated the effect of patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing 3 (PNPLA3) rs738409 (C > G), which has been reported to be most involved in the onset and progression of fatty liver, on liver fat and fibrosis in a cohort study related to gut microbiota in a non-fatty liver population.
