This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, are now among the greatest threats to human health. As public concerns with complex causality and long development period, chronic diseases generally cannot be cured by medication or prevented by vaccines. Finding new strategies to prevent or treat chronic diseases has long been a challenge to science. Recently, a series of breakthrough studies in intestinal biology, especially in the fields of the gut microbiota, has made us pay close attention to the critical role of intestinal function in chronic disease treatment. Emerging evidence suggests that the gut microbiota could affect the occurrence, diagnosis, and treatment of human conditions, resulting in gut microbiota intervention as a new therapeutic strategy for chronic disorders. However, investigating the intrinsic relation between the gut microbiome and chronic conditions is still in development and requires intense concentration, although the wave of research on the gut microbiome has continued growing and the associated innovations are evolving rapidly. Moreover, translational research on the human microbiome is gaining attention nowadays. Probiotics and their engineered strains, postbiotics, microbial metabolites, prebiotics, microbiota transplantation, and microbiota-targeted interventions are practical approaches to modulating the microbiome. Probiotics, postbiotics, and microbial metabolites are one of the most important and effective interventions. As for disease prevention and treatment, some microbiota-associated live biotherapeutic products (e.g., Akkermansia muciniphila) have been demonstrated with respectable efficacy for human disorders, including diabetes. As for the food nutrition community, supplement with probiotics or prebiotics in diet shows health-promoting benefits for the human being. Collectively, these results inspire us to explore more effective strains to prevent or treat human conditions such as chronic diseases. Undoubtedly, exploring the human-associated microbiota provides a novel perspective for unlocking life’s mystery and unraveling the underlying basic pathogenesis of diseases such as chronic conditions. Targeting microbiota through probiotics, postbiotics, microbial metabolites, prebiotics, microbiota transplantation, and other interventions can generate new therapeutic strategies for chronic disorders in humans. Therefore, this research topic aims to explore the beneficial effects of novel probiotics, postbiotics, and microbial metabolites on chronic diseases, determine the critical role that the human microbiome and probiotics or postbiotics play in chronic conditions changes, determine the basic principles of translational research on probiotics or postbiotics or microbial metabolites and contribute to the prevention and treatment of chronic disorders. We welcome submissions including original research articles, clinical studies, and reviews that contribute innovative knowledge to the following but not limited to potential research topics: •Identification of functional probiotics, postbiotics, and microbial metabolites with human health-promoting, chronic disease prevention and therapeutic properties. •Probiotics/postbiotics or microbial metabolites supplements prevent and treat several most prevalent chronic conditions including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, mental disorders, cancers, and pulmonary conditions. •Clinical and experimental studies using multi-omics to reveal the intrinsic relationship between human microbes/microbiota and chronic diseases. •Translational microbiome research on chronic diseases. •The engineered probiotics for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases, especially related studies involved in exploring the potential molecular mechanisms of engineering microbes. •The key technologies involved in the industrialization process of probiotics, postbiotics, and microbial metabolites.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probiotics are a group of live microorganisms (bacteria and/or yeasts) that exert beneficial effects on humans and animals, principally by balancing the intestinal flora. Probiotic microorganisms are mostly of human and animal origin and are normal constituents of their gastrointestinal microflora. However, several probiotics have been isolated from fermented foods. Various curative properties such as immune modulation, reducing serum cholesterol, anti-mutagenic and anti-carcinogenic effects, alleviation of lactose intolerance symptoms, strengthening defense mechanisms, improvement of intestinal barrier function and improving nutritional value have been attributed to probiotics. Regarding these health benefits, probiotics are considered as substantial ingredients in formulation of healthful and functional food products. This book presents an overview of the probiotic concept and its various functionalities in food products. Several scientific publications have been published in the field of probiotics, but due to the lack of books devoted to in vitro functionality of probiotics, a discrete need was recognized for a book to gather the basic and recent publications in this context while following a simple and applied approach. The chapter contributors of this book are renowned and expert authors in the probiotic field from key institutions around the world. We hope the book will be a useful reference for researchers, product developers, health professionals, students and regulators.

Book excerpt: Probiotic bacteria are found in the intestinal microbiota of the host and favor multiple metabolic reactions. Prebiotics provide food for probiotic bacteria and have an effect on their own performance in favor of host health. Numerous metabolic and immunological mechanisms are involved in its effects. Probiotics have been studied for several decades and their use for human consumption is still unclear. However, new types of molecules with prebiotic functions and components of probiotic bacteria with therapeutic potential are still being studied. The versatility of these molecules makes their incorporation into human food and animal diets feasible. This book is a compendium of recent scientific information on the use of probiotics and prebiotics for the benefit of human and animal health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Composed of nearly a thousand different types of microorganisms - some beneficial, others not - the human gut microbiota plays an important role in health and disease. This is due to the presence of probiotic or beneficial microbes, or due to the feeding of prebiotics that stimulate the endogenous beneficial microbes (these promote health by stimulating the immune system, improving the digestion and absorption of nutrients, and inhibiting the growth of pathogens). The notable health benefits of probiotic organisms have prompted much commercial interest, which in turn has led to a plethora of research initiatives in this area. These range from studies to elucidate the efficacy of the various health benefits to analyses of the diet-microbe interaction as a means of modulating the gut microbiota composition. Research in this area is at a very exciting stage. With state-of-the-art commentaries on all aspects of probiotics and prebiotics research, this book provides an authoritative and timely overview of the field. Written by leading international researchers, each chapter affords critical insight to a particular topic, reviews current research, discusses future direction, and stimulates discussion. Topics range from the different microorganisms used as probiotics (lactobacilli, bifidobacteria, yeast, etc.), and the techniques and approaches used (metagenomics, etc.), to the reviews of the clinical and medical aspects. The provision of extensive reference sections positively encourages readers to pursue each subject in greater detail. *** Librarians: ebook available on ProQuest and EBSCO [Subject: Microbiology, Life Science]

Download or read book Interplay Between Diets, Microbiota, Bacterial Metabolites and Host for Intestinal Health and Disease written by Silvia Melgar and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interplay between the diet and the microbiota appears to regulate the host responses. It is now well acknowledged that the microbiota and their metabolites such as short chain fatty acids, bile acids, etc modulates the metabolic status, educates the host’s intestinal immune system, and protects the host against invading pathogens and injury. Concomitantly, environmental factors such as diets and dietary components play a major role in shaping the microbiota, thereby modulating the host immune and epithelial responses, and ultimately directing the individual’s health status. Disruption in any of these elements or their interactions have been linked to the development and progression of a wide range of conditions including Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), colorectal cancer, obesity, Parkinson’s disease, autism, asthma etc. While westernised diets (rich in fat/sugar and low in fibres) and dietary additives (e.g. emulsifiers) have been identified as risk factors for these disorders, other diets such as Mediterranean, Ketogenic and probiotics and prebiotics can serve as treatment strategies due to their impact on the microbiota and possibly the host.
