The human microbiota is fundamental to correct immune system development and balance.
Dysbiosis, or microbial content alteration in the gut and respiratory tract, is associated with …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from the fermentation of carbohydrates by gut
microbiota play a crucial role in regulating host physiology. Among them, acetate …

Mounting evidence suggests that the gut-to-lung axis is critical during respiratory viral
infections. We herein hypothesized that disruption of gut homeostasis during severe acute …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a widespread socially significant disease.
The development of COPD involves the innate immune system. Interestingly, the regulation …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are metabolites produced mainly by the gut microbiota with
a known role in immune regulation. Acetate, the major SCFA, is described to disseminate to …

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) are spreading rapidly in hospital
settings. Asymptomatic CPE gut colonisation may be associated with dysbiosis and gut-lung …

Respiratory infections place a heavy burden on the health care system, particularly in the
winter months. Individuals with a vulnerable immune system, such as very young children …

The global burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) is expected to continuously increase. Through
research performed in the past decades, the effects of various environmental factors on CRC …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), such as butyrate, propionate, and acetate produced by the
gut microbiota have been implicated in physiological responses (defense mechanisms …

Dental caries is not only one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide, but also a public
health problem, undoubtedly. Among the various species of cariogenic bacteria …
