Heirali A, Moossavi S, Arrieta MC, Coburn B. Principles and Terminology for Host-Microbiome-Drug Interactions. Open Forum Infect Dis 2023; 10:ofad195.

Abstract
Interactions between the microbiome and medical therapies are distinct and bidirectional. The existing term "pharmacomicrobiomics" describes the effects of the microbiome on drug distribution, metabolism, efficacy, and toxicity. We propose that the term "pharmacoecology" be used to describe the effects that drugs and other medical interventions such as probiotics have on microbiome composition and function. We suggest that the terms are complementary but distinct and that both are potentially important when assessing drug safety and efficacy as well as drug-microbiome interactions. As a proof of principle, we describe the ways in which these concepts apply to antimicrobial and non-antimicrobial medications.

Xu Z, Dong M, Yin S, Dong J, Zhang M, Tian R, Min W, Zeng L, Qiao H, Chen J. Why traditional herbal medicine promotes wound healing: Research from immune response, wound microbiome to controlled delivery. Adv Drug Deliv Rev 2023; 195:114764. [PMID: 36841332 DOI: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.114764] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023]
Abstract
Impaired wound healing in chronic wounds has been a significant challenge for clinicians and researchers for decades. Traditional herbal medicine (THM) has a long history of promoting wound healing, making them culturally accepted and trusted by a great number of people in the world. However, for a long time, the understanding of herbal medicine has been limited and incomplete, particularly in the allopathic medicine-dominated research system. The therapeutic effects of individual components isolated from THM are found less pronounced compared to synthetic chemical medicine, and the clinical efficacy is always inferior to herbs. In the present article, we review and discuss underlying mechanisms of the skin microbiome involved in the wound healing process; THM in regulating immune responses and commensal microbiome. We additionally propose few pioneer ideas and studies in the development of therapeutic strategies for controlled delivery of herbal medicine. This review aims to promote wound care with a focus on wound microbiome, immune response, and topical drug delivery systems. Finally, future development trends, challenges, and research directions are discussed.

Role of the Intestinal Microbiota in the Genesis of Major Depression and the Response to Antidepressant Drug Therapy: A Narrative Review. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11020550. [PMID: 36831086 PMCID: PMC9953611 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11020550] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 02/10/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
A major depressive disorder is a serious mental illness characterized by a pervasive low mood that negatively concerns personal life, work life, or education, affecting millions of people worldwide. To date, due to the complexity of the disease, the most common and effective treatments consist of a multi-therapy approach, including psychological, social, and pharmacological support with antidepressant drugs. In general, antidepressants are effective in correcting chemical imbalances of neurotransmitters in the brain, but recent evidence has underlined the pivotal role of gut microbiota (GM) also in the regulation of their pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, through indirect or direct mechanisms. The study of these complex interactions between GM and drugs is currently under the spotlight, and it has been recently named "pharmacomicrobiomics". Hence, the purpose of this review is to summarize the contribution of GM and its metabolites in depression, as well as their role in the metabolism and activity of antidepressant drugs, in order to pave the way for the personalized administration of antidepressant therapies.

Pharmacol Res Perspect 2022; 10:e00998. [PMID: 36082825 PMCID: PMC9460963 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Advances in pharmacomicrobiomics have shed light on the pathophysiology of drug‐induced enteropathy associated with the therapeutic use of certain non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs, anticancer chemotherapies and immunosuppressants. The toxicity pathway results from the post‐glucuronidation release and digestive accumulation of an aglycone generated in the context of intestinal dysbiosis characterized by the expansion of β‐glucuronidase‐expressing bacteria. The active aglycone could trigger direct or indirect inflammatory signaling on the gut epithelium. Therefore, taming bacterial β‐glucuronidase (GUS) activity is a druggable target for preventing drug‐induced enteropathy. In face of the limitations of antibiotic strategies that can worsen intestinal dysbiosis and impair immune functions, we hereby propose the use of a recombinant probiotic capable of mimicking repressive conditions of GUS through an inducible plasmid vector.

The Potential Use of Antibiotics Against Helicobacter pylori Infection: Biopharmaceutical Implications. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:917184.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a notorious, recalcitrant and silent germ, which can cause a variety of debilitating stomach diseases, including gastric and duodenal ulcers and gastric cancer. This microbe predominantly colonizes the mucosal layer of the human stomach and survives in the inhospitable gastric microenvironment, by adapting to this hostile milieu. In this review, we first discuss H. pylori colonization and invasion. Thereafter, we provide a survey of current curative options based on polypharmacy, looking at pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and pharmaceutical microbiology concepts, in the battle against H. pylori infection.
