ClearBlack Lycium barbarum polysaccharide attenuates LPS-induced intestine damage via regulation gut microbiota
Researchers studied whether a polysaccharide from black Lycium barbarum could protect against intestinal damage caused by bacterial toxins in mice. They found that the supplement alleviated intestinal tissue damage and improved gut microbiota diversity by promoting beneficial bacteria. The study suggests that this plant-derived polysaccharide may help maintain intestinal health by modulating the gut microbial community.
Carvacrol attenuated lipopolysaccharide-induced intestinal injury by down-regulating TLRs gene expression and regulating the gut microbiota in rabbit
Researchers tested whether carvacrol, a natural plant compound found in oregano and thyme, could protect the intestines of rabbits challenged with a bacterial toxin (lipopolysaccharide), finding it reduced inflammation, improved gut lining structure, and restored healthier gut bacteria communities. These results suggest carvacrol could be a useful dietary supplement for protecting intestinal health in rabbit farming.
Inhibitory Effects of Jiuzao Polysaccharides on Alcoholic Fatty Liver Formation in Zebrafish Larvae and Their Regulatory Impact on Intestinal Microbiota
Researchers investigated the protective effects of Laowuzeng Jiuzao polysaccharides on ethanol-induced alcoholic fatty liver in zebrafish larvae, finding that the polysaccharides reduced hepatic damage and regulated intestinal microbiota composition, suggesting therapeutic potential for alcohol-related liver disease.
Lactobacillus plantarum A3 attenuates ulcerative colitis by modulating gut microbiota and metabolism
Researchers showed that Lactobacillus plantarum A3, a probiotic strain isolated from horses, reduced symptoms of ulcerative colitis in mice whose gut microbiomes had been disrupted by antibiotics. The probiotic restored beneficial bacteria like Akkermansia, reduced gut inflammation, and increased levels of natural anti-inflammatory compounds in the body.
Combined Omics Analysis Further Unveils the Specific Role of Butyrate in Promoting Growth in Early-Weaning Animals
Researchers investigated whether dietary butyrate supplementation could improve intestinal health and growth in early-weaned rabbits using combined transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis. They found that butyrate strengthened the intestinal barrier, improved gut microbial balance by suppressing harmful bacteria, and enhanced metabolic pathways related to inflammation reduction and antioxidant capacity. The study suggests that butyrate supplementation may help alleviate the intestinal disruption commonly caused by early weaning in young animals.
Carvacrol attenuated lipopolysaccharide-induced intestinal injury by down-regulating TLRs gene expression and regulating the gut microbiota in rabbit
This study examined how carvacrol (a natural plant compound) reduces intestinal inflammation and protects gut microbiota in rabbits challenged with bacterial toxins. Understanding how the gut microbiome responds to different stressors provides context for research on microplastic effects on intestinal health.
Impacts of dietary supplementation of bamboo vinegar and charcoal powder on growth performance, intestinal morphology, and gut microflora of large-scale loach Paramisgurnus dabryanus
Researchers fed large-scale loach fish diets supplemented with 1–2% bamboo vinegar and charcoal powder for 90 days and found significant improvements in survival, weight gain, intestinal villus length, and gut microbiome composition, suggesting this additive promotes digestive health and growth in aquaculture.
Ameliorative effects of mulberry fruit anthocyanin extract on gut microbiota and liver metabolites in high-fat and high-cholesterol diet-fed ApoE−/− mice
Researchers investigated mulberry anthocyanin extract in high-fat, high-cholesterol diet-fed mice and found it reduced LDL cholesterol and inflammatory markers while favorably shifting gut microbial composition and modulating liver metabolites including glutamine and ATP, suggesting a mechanism linking gut microbiota to atherosclerosis risk reduction.
Jianwei Xiaoshi oral liquid attenuates high-calorie diet-induced dyspepsia in immature rats via regulating the pancreatic secretion pathway and maintaining the homeostasis of intestinal microbiota
Researchers found that a traditional Chinese herbal medicine formula called Jianwei Xiaoshi oral liquid improved functional digestive problems in young rats fed a high-calorie diet by regulating eight key proteins involved in pancreatic digestion and restoring healthy gut bacteria balance. The findings suggest potential therapeutic benefits of this herbal remedy for diet-induced digestive disorders in children.
Chestnut Shell Tannins: Effects on Intestinal Inflammation and Dysbiosis in Zebrafish
Researchers tested chestnut shell tannin extract in zebrafish with induced intestinal inflammation and dysbiosis, finding that tannin treatment reduced inflammatory markers and partially restored gut microbiome composition, suggesting potential as a natural anti-inflammatory dietary supplement.
Tanshinone IIA May Inhibit Gastric Cancer via Affecting the Intestinal Microbiome
Researchers investigated whether tanshinone IIA, a compound derived from Salvia miltiorrhiza, inhibits gastric cancer tumor growth through modulation of the intestinal microbiome and regulation of NF-kB signaling. The study found that tanshinone IIA altered the gut microbial composition and suppressed NF-kB pathway activity, suggesting a microbiome-mediated mechanism underlying its anti-tumor effects.
Improvement of the intestinal epithelial barrier during laxative effects of phlorotannin in loperamide-induced constipation of SD rats
Researchers found that phlorotannin, a natural compound found in brown seaweed, relieves constipation in rats by repairing the intestinal epithelial barrier — the protective lining of the gut — suggesting it may support healthy gut function.
Mechanism of Mulberry Leaves and Black Sesame in Alleviating Slow Transit Constipation Revealed by Multi-Omics Analysis
Researchers examined how mulberry leaves and black sesame alleviate slow transit constipation in a mouse model, measuring gut motility, microbiota composition, and intestinal gene expression. Both dietary interventions increased beneficial bacteria, enhanced gut peristalsis, and upregulated genes associated with intestinal motility, supporting their traditional use for digestive health.
Potential of Fermented Plant Extract for Removing Microplastics in Artificial Gastric and Intestinal Juices
This study tested whether fermented plant extract could accelerate microplastic excretion from the gastrointestinal tract in an animal model, finding that the extract promoted intestinal motility and MP passage, suggesting a potential natural approach to reducing residence time of ingested MPs.

Causal relationship between gut microbiota and gastrointestinal diseases: a mendelian randomization study
This Mendelian randomization study found genetic evidence supporting a causal relationship between specific gut microbiota compositions and gastrointestinal diseases. The findings suggest that microbiome-related interventions, including microbiome-dependent metabolites, could potentially be developed to treat or manage gastrointestinal conditions.
Comparative analysis of gut fungal composition and structure of the yaks under different feeding models
Researchers compared the gut fungal communities of wild yaks, house-fed domestic yaks, and grazing domestic yaks on the Tibetan plateau. They found that wild and grazing yaks had significantly more diverse gut fungal communities than house-fed yaks, with the feeding model strongly influencing which fungal species thrived. The study suggests that natural grazing supports a richer gut microbiome in yaks compared to indoor feeding, with potential implications for animal health and digestion.
The effects of food provisioning on the gut microbiota community and antibiotic resistance genes of Yunnan snub-nosed monkey
Researchers compared the gut bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes of Yunnan snub-nosed monkeys that receive supplemental food from a reserve with those of wild-foraging groups. The study found differences in microbial communities between the two groups, suggesting that food provisioning programs, while helpful for population recovery, may alter the gut health of these endangered primates.
