Berberine protects against hypoxia-induced intestinal injury through modulation of gut microbiota and bile acid metabolism

Hao Zhang, Hao Zhang, Hao Zhang, Penghui Ye et al. • Frontiers in Immunology (2026)

BackgroundHigh-altitude hypoxia disrupts intestinal homeostasis by impairing the epithelial barrier, triggering inflammation, and promoting microbial translocation. Berberine (BER), a natural isoquinoline alkaloid with antimicrobial and ant...

Gut Microbiota and Metabolome Description of Antibiotic-Treated Neonates From Parturients With Intrauterine Infection

Huitao Li, Lei Fu, Xueyu Chen, Heng Xu et al. • Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology (2022)

Intrauterine infection is linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women. Neonates from parturients with intrauterine infection are usually treated with antibiotics, but their gut microbiota and metabolome are seldom studied. In thi...

Soil Geochemical Properties Influencing the Diversity of Bacteria and Archaea in Soils of the Kitezh Lake Area, Antarctica

Qinxin Li, Nengfei Wang, Wenbing Han, Botao Zhang et al. • Biology (2022)

It is believed that polar regions are influenced by global warming more significantly, and because polar regions are less affected by human activities, they have certain reference values for future predictions. This study aimed to investiga...

Impacts of Sugarcane Vinasses on the Structure and Composition of Bacterial Communities in Brazilian Tropical Oxisols

Paulo Roger Lopes Alves, German Andres Estrada-Bonilla, Antonio Marcos Miranda Silva, Thiago Gumiere et al. • Soil Systems (2025)

This study explored how different sugarcane vinasses influence the structure and composition of soil bacterial communities in two tropical Oxisols with contrasting textures. In a controlled microcosm experiment with sugarcane seedlings, two...

A Predictive Model Based on the Gut Microbiota Improves the Diagnostic Effect in Patients With Cholangiocarcinoma

Tan Zhang, Tan Zhang, Sina Zhang, Sina Zhang et al. • Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology (2021)

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a malignant hepatic tumor with a poor prognosis, which needs early diagnosis urgently. The gut microbiota has been shown to play a crucial role in the progression of liver cancer. Here, we explored a gut microbio...

Distribution Patterns of Iron-Oxidizing Zeta- and Beta-Proteobacteria From Different Environmental Settings at the Jan Mayen Vent Fields

Jan Vander Roost, Jan Vander Roost, Frida Lise Daae, Frida Lise Daae et al. • Frontiers in Microbiology (2018)

Iron oxidizers are widespread in marine environments and play an important role in marine iron cycling. However, little is known about the overall distribution of iron oxidizers within hydrothermal systems, including settings with little hy...

Gut Microbiota and Targeted Biomarkers Analysis in Patients With Cognitive Impairment

Shourong Lu, Ying Yang, Qiao Xu, Shuqiang Wang et al. • Frontiers in Neurology (2022)

Gut microbial alteration is closely associated with brain disorders including cognitive impairment (CI). Gut microbes have the potential to predicate the development of diseases. However, the gut microbial markers for CI remain to be elucid...
