Linking dietary fiber to human malady through cumulative profiling of microbiota disturbance by Xin Zhang, Huan Liu, Yu Li, Yanlong Wen, Tianxin Xu, Chen Chen, Shuxia Hao, Jielun Hu, Shaoping Nie, Fei Gao, Gengjie Jia

“…By leveraging microbiota disturbance similarities, we (1) classified 32 types of dietary fibers into six functional subgroups, revealing correlations with fiber solubility; (2) established associations among 161 diseases, uncovering shared microbiota disturbance patterns that explain disease co‐occurrence (e.g., type II diabetes and kidney diseases) and distinct microbiota patterns that discern symptomatically similar diseases (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome); (3) designed a body‐site‐specific microbiota disturbance scoring scheme, computing a disturbance score (DS) for each disease and highlighting the pronounced capacity of Crohn's disease to disturb gut microbiota (DS = 14.01) in contrast with food allergy's minimal capacity (DS = 0.74); (4) identified 1659 fiber‐disease associations, predicting the potential of dietary fiber to modulate specific microbiota changes associated with diseases of interest; (5) established murine models of inflammatory bowel disease to validate the preventive and therapeutic effects of arabinoxylan that notably perturbed the Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes phyla, as well as the Bacteroidetes and Lactobacillus genera, aligning with our model predictions. …”

Clinical correlation between intestinal flora profiles and the incidence of postmenopausal osteoporosis by Cuifeng Zhu, Yuan Zhang, Yi Pan, Zhentian Zhang, Yan Liu, Xiuping Lin, Jinchuan Cai, Zhuang Xiong, Yong Pan, Hezhongrong Nie

“…Purpose This study aimed to explore the characteristics of intestinal microflora polymorphism in postmenopausal women, and to determine the pathophysiological changes of gene polymorphism of intestinal flora and bone metabolism in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) patients.Methods A total of 104 postmenopausal women with PMOP or normal bone density were included. Lifestyle, hip T-score, bone metabolism indexes (25(OH)D, PTH, β-CTX, PINP), intestinal mucous membrane barrier function (diamine oxidase, D-lactic acid, LPS), gene polymorphisms, and characteristics of gut microbiota were examined.Results Women with PMOP had reduced physical activity, less dietary protein and calcium intake, lower levels of 25(OH)D, hip T-score, and BMD, but PMOP group had increased total energy and fat intake, and higher levels of PTH, β-CTX, diamine oxidase, D-lactic acid, and LPS (p < .05 for all), as compared with normal subjects. …”

Gut dysbiosis is associated with increased blood–brain barrier permeability and cognitive impairment in elderlies with coronary heart disease by Lichao Di, Peiying Huang, Yeju He, Na Sun, Liwei Chi, Lining Huang, Lining Huang, Lining Huang

“…Hippocampal BBB permeability (Ktrans) was significantly elevated in MCI patients (6.04 ± 3.02 vs. 3.90 ± 1.03 × 10−3 min−1, p = 0.006) and inversely correlated with the relative abundance of Faecalibacterium (Spearman’s r = −0.466, p = 0.002) and Oscillospira (Spearman’s r = −0.322, p = 0.043). Conversely, these genera showed positive correlations with Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Basic (MoCA-B) scores (Faecalibacterium: r = 0.596, p &lt; 0.001; Oscillospira: r = 0.369, p = 0.019).ConclusionElderlies with CHD and MCI demonstrate significant gut dysbiosis, characterized by reduced microbial diversity and depletion of SCFA-producing taxa, notably butyrate producers. …”
