Tryptophan-kynurenine metabolism: a link between the gut and brain for depression in inflammatory bowel diseaseDepressionIDOInflammatory bowel diseaseThe brain-gut axisTryptophan-kynurenine metabolic pathwayInflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which mainly includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (...
Zapanta's research explores the connection between the gut and the brain, how this could impact those with Parkinson'sdisease, and the role exercise could play on improving gut health. Her article, developed under the guidance of Professor of Clinical Physical Therapy Beth Fisher MS '80, Ph.D...
Researchers have suspected for some time that the link between our gut and brain plays a role in the development of Parkinson’s disease. A new study just identified gut microbes likely to be involved and linked them with decreased riboflavin (vitamin B2) and biotin (vitamin B7), pointing ...
Professor Alex Johnstone from the University of Aberdeen's Rowett Institute said: "It has become evident that there is a two-way communication between the gut microbiome and the brain. That relationship is not yet fully understood but the goal for us is to identify whether changes in diet can...
Deciphering the gut–brain link in NEC Infant NEC is associated with high mortality and brain injury. This study sheds light on the connections between gut and brain pathology and shows that microglia-targeted dendrimers, coupled to antioxidants, can protect from brain injury... A Flemming - 《...
The impact of gut dysbiosis on so many aspects of human health has prompted new research that suggests a direct link between dysbiosis in the gut environment and Intervertebral disc degeneration. Until recently, the IVD system was thought to be a sterile environment, uniquely protected from inflamm...
Although numerous reports link a decreased diversity of the gut microbiota to a declined health status, to date no mechanistic motivation for this exists. Here, we show by applying first principles basic graph theory on small networks that higher diversi
There’s a reason why the gut is often referred to as the “second brain” and it’s because it contains a complex network of neurons known as the enteric nervous system (ENS), which operates independently of the central nervous system (CNS) yet it still communicates with the vagus nerve...
But is there a solid link between gut health and weight loss? We consulted gut health experts and the latest research to find out. There’s no denying how influential the gut microbiome is on overall health. This colon-dwelling community of trillions of bacteria, fungi, and other ...
"Researchers have previously shown that changes to intestinal mucus affect the balance of bacteria in the gut but until now, no-one has made the connection between gut mucus and the brain. "Our review reveals that people with autism, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's and Multiple Sclerosis have...
