Download or read book The Role of Probiotics, Postbiotics, and Microbial Metabolites in Preventing and Treating Chronic Diseases written by Tingtao Chen and published by Frontiers Media SA. 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.

Download or read book Probiotics and Child Gastrointestinal Health written by Stefano Guandalini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows the huge impact the gut microbiota has on the gastrointestinal health of humans with a particular focus on children. It also highlights the potential use of probiotic microorganisms to protect or improve children’s gastrointestinal health. Humans are not single organisms: We are a multi-organism structure composed of ourselves and our microbiota, living in close symbiosis since birth and even before. The huge impact that the billons of microscopic cells living in our gut have on our gastrointestinal and systemic health cannot be overestimated. The enormous progress that has been made in the past decade in our still very incomplete understanding of the gut microbiota is opening the door to potential applications in human health that were simply unthinkable before. One of the most interesting aspects of this new scientific horizon is the fact that we may identify (or even create in the laboratory) and utilize many of these “friendly bacteria” to protect, or improve our health. Thus, strains of probiotic microorganisms are being identified and studied in a vast array of clinical scenarios. Among the most investigated areas for probiotics is the gastrointestinal health of children. The topics addressed in this book are spanning from the development of the gut microbiota in the fetus and newborn all the way to current and potential applications in disparate conditions such as necrotizing enterocolitis, or infectious, or inflammatory conditions affecting the child. The book is written in a rigorous, evidence based manner by an international group of outstanding experts in these fields and is aimed at pediatric gastroenterologists, pediatricians and physician scientists alike.

Download or read book Bugs as Drugs written by Robert A. Britton and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the enormous potential of microbiome manipulation to improve health Associations between the composition of the intestinal microbiome and many human diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, and cancer, have been elegantly described in the past decade. Now, whole-genome sequencing, bioinformatics, and precision gene-editing techniques are being combined with centuries-old therapies, such as fecal microbiota transplantation, to translate current research into new diagnostics and therapeutics to treat complex diseases. Bugs as Drugs provides a much-needed overview of microbes in therapies and will serve as an excellent resource for scientists and clinicians as they carry out research and clinical studies on investigating the roles the microbiota plays in health and disease. In Bugs as Drugs, editors Robert A. Britton and Patrice D. Cani have assembled a fascinating collection of reviews that chart the history, current efforts, and future prospects of using microorganisms to fight disease and improve health. Sections cover traditional uses of probiotics, next-generation microbial therapeutics, controlling infectious diseases, and indirect strategies for manipulating the host microbiome. Topics presented include: How well-established probiotics support and improve host health by improving the composition of the intestinal microbiota of the host and by modulating the host immune response. The use of gene editing and recombinant DNA techniques to create tailored probiotics and to characterize next-generation beneficial microbes. For example, engineering that improves the anti-inflammatory profile of probiotics can reduce the number of colonic polyps formed, and lactobacilli can be transformed into targeted delivery systems carrying therapeutic proteins or bioengineered bacteriophage. The association of specific microbiota composition with colorectal cancer, liver diseases, osteoporosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. The gut microbiota has been proposed to serve as an organ involved in regulation of inflammation, immune function, and energy homeostasis. Fecal microbiota transplantation as a promising treatment for numerous diseases beyond C. difficile infection. Practical considerations for using fecal microbiota transplantation are provided, while it is acknowledged that more high-quality evidence is needed to ascertain the importance of strain specificity in positive treatment outcomes. Because systems biology approaches and synthetic engineering of microbes are now high-throughput and cost-effective, a much wider range of therapeutic possibilities can be explored and vetted.

This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “immunobiotics” has been proposed to define microbial strains able to beneficially regulate the mucosal immune system. Research in immunobiotics has significantly evolved as researchers employed cutting-edge technologies to investigate the complex interactions of these beneficial microorganisms with the immune system. During the last decade, our understanding of immunobiotics-host interaction was profoundly transformed by the discovery of microbial molecules and host receptors involved in the modulation of gut associated immune system, as well as the systemic and distant mucosal immune systems. In recent years, there has been a substantial increase in the number of reports describing the beneficial effects of immunobiotics in diseases such as intestinal and respiratory infections, allergy, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, immunosuppression, and several other immune-mediated conditions. Evidence is also emerging of immunobiotics related molecules with immunomodulatory functions leading to the production of pharmabiotics, which may positively influence human or animal health. Therefore, research in immunobiotics continue to contribute not only to food but also medical and pharmaceutical fields. The compilation of research articles included in this ebook should help reader to have an overview of the recent advances in immunobiotics.
