Abstract
BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitisis (UC) classified as a form of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) characterized by chronic, nonspecific, and recurrent symptoms with a poor prognosis. Common clinical manifestations of UC include diarrhea, fecal bleeding, and abdominal pain. Even though anti-inflammatory drugs can help alleviate symptoms of IBD, their long-term use is limited due to potential side effects. Therefore, alternative approaches for the treatment and prevention of inflammation in UC are crucial. METHODS This study investigated the synergistic mechanism of Lactobacillus plantarum SC-5 (SC-5) and tyrosol (TY) combination (TS) in murine colitis, specifically exploring their regulatory activity on the dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced inflammatory pathways (NF-κB and MAPK) and key molecular targets (tight junction protein). The effectiveness of 1 week of treatment with SC-5, TY, or TS was evaluated in a DSS-induced colitis mice model by assessing colitis morbidity and colonic mucosal injury (n = 9). To validate these findings, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was performed by inoculating DSS-treated mice with the microbiota of TS-administered mice (n = 9). RESULTS The results demonstrated that all three treatments effectively reduced colitis morbidity and protected against DSS-induced UC. The combination treatment, TS, exhibited inhibitory effects on the DSS-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and negatively regulated NF-κB. Furthermore, TS maintained the integrity of the tight junction (TJ) structure by regulating the expression of zona-occludin-1 (ZO-1), Occludin, and Claudin-3 (p < 0.05). Analysis of the intestinal microbiota revealed significant differences, including a decrease in Proteus and an increase in Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Akkermansia, which supported the protective effect of TS (p < 0.05). An increase in the number of Aspergillus bacteria can cause inflammation in the intestines and lead to the formation of ulcers. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus can regulate the micro-ecological balance of the intestinal tract, replenish normal physiological bacteria and inhibit harmful intestinal bacteria, which can alleviate the symptoms of UC. The relative abundance of Akkermansia has been shown to be negatively associated with IBD. The FMT group exhibited alleviated colitis, excellent anti-inflammatory effects, improved colonic barrier integrity, and enrichment of bacteria such as Akkermansia (p < 0.05). These results further supported the gut microbiota-dependent mechanism of TS in ameliorating colonic inflammation. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the TS demonstrated a remission of colitis and amelioration of colonic inflammation in a gut microbiota-dependent manner. The findings suggest that TS could be a potential natural medicine for the protection of UC health. The above results suggest that TS can be used as a potential therapeutic agent for the clinical regulation of UC.

Abstract
Health-promoting compounds in wine and wine-related products are important due to their potential benefits to human health. Through an extensive literature review, this study explores the presence of these compounds in wine and wine-related products, examining their relationship with terroir and their impact on the aromatic and flavor properties that are perceived orally: sunlight exposure, rainfall patterns, and soil composition impact grapevines' synthesis and accumulation of health-promoting compounds. Enzymes, pH, and the oral microbiome are crucial in sensory evaluation and perception of health promotion. Moreover, their analysis of health-promoting compounds in wine and wine-related products relies on considerations such as the specific target compound, selectivity, sensitivity, and the complexity of the matrix.

Salidroside ameliorates memory impairment following long-term ethanol intake in rats by modulating the altered intestinal microbiota content and hippocampal gene expression. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1172936. [PMID: 37362918 PMCID: PMC10288325 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1172936] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Salidroside (Sal), the main component of a famous herb Rhodiola rosea L, enhances memory performance and reduces fatigue. Therefore, this study assessed the effect of Sal on memory impairment induced by a long-term intake of ethanol (EtOH) in rats and investigated its relevant mechanisms using gut microbiota metagenomic analysis and hippocampal transcriptomic analysis. Methods Eighteen male SD rats were divided into the normal control group (CON group), EtOH model group (Model group), and Sal treatment group (Sal group). The rats in the Model and Sal groups intragastrically (i.g.) received 2 g/kg EtOH for 30 consecutive days, whereas the CON group was given an equal volume of distilled water. Meanwhile, the rats in the Sal group were administered i.g. 30 mg/kg Sal 60 min after EtOH intake. All rats were tested in the eight-arm maze for their memory function every 3 days. On the 30th day, metagenomic analyses of gut microbiota and transcriptomic analyses of the hippocampus were performed. Results Compared with the Model group, Sal treatment reduced the total time to complete the eight-arm maze task, decreased the number of arm entries, and abated the working memory error that was significant from the 9th day. Additionally, Sal intervention improved the gut microbiota composition, such as the increased abundance of Actinobacteria and Bifidobacterium, which was related to the metabolism of amino acids and terpenoid carbohydrate, endocrine function, and signal transduction by neurotransmitters. In the hippocampus, the EtOH intake differentially expressed 68 genes (54 genes increased, whereas 14 genes decreased), compared with the CON group, whereas Sal intervention affected these changes: 15 genes increased whereas 11 genes decreased. And, enrichment analyses revealed these genes were related to the structural components of the ribosome, mRNA splicing process, protein translation, mitochondria function, and immunological reaction. Finally, a correlation analysis found the memory impairment was positively correlated with the abnormal upregulation of Tomm7 but negatively correlated with decreased abundance of gut Alistipes_indistinctus, Lactobacillus_taiwanensis, Lactobacillus_paragasseri, and Lactobacillus johnsonii. Conclusion Sal improved memory impairment caused by long-term EtOH intake in rats, which may be related to its regulation of gut dysbiosis and hippocampal dysfunction.
