The gastrointestinal tract, or gut, harbors a vast and diverse community of microorganisms known as the gut microbiota. Diet plays a crucial role in regulating overall health through the manipulation of the gut microbiota. Recent research has increasingly highlighted the pivotal role that gut microbiota play in affecting a wide array of bodily functions. These complex microbial communities residing in the digestive tract are now understood to be not only crucial in the digestion process but also influential in fortifying the body's defensive mechanisms against illnesses. One noteworthy aspect of this connection is that the gut microbiota serves as a primary regulator of peripheral organ health via a wide range of communication routes. This intricate network underscores the critical role of the gut microbiota in maintaining overall organ function and systemic well-being. The aim of this topic is to delve into the complex relationship among the diet, the gut microbiota and various peripheral organs (X axis), revealing the impact of this connection on human health and disease.
Understanding the interaction between the gut microbiota + X axis is crucial for unravelling the complex mechanisms underlying disease states. Gut microbiota dysbiosis has been linked to a variety of health conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and neurological problems. The importance of restoring and maintaining the balance of the gut microbiota cannot be understated in the context of promoting overall health. Diet plays a pivotal role in this journey towards equilibrium. The strategic modulation of the intestinal microbiome through dietary alterations, prebiotics, and probiotics represents a promising avenue for the prevention and treatment of diseases. By exploring dietary modulation via gut microbiota influences peripheral organs, we can potentially identify new therapeutic targets for these diseases, paving the way for personalized interventions. Restore dynamic balance and promote health through diet, and targeted address specific microbial imbalances in combating chronic diseases.
We welcome submissions including but not limited to the following themes:
● The role and mechanism of certain gut microbes in the signal transduction of specific axis.
● The impact of dietary habits and lifestyle on health and disease through the gut microbiota.
● The influence of food ingredients and natural products on the gut microbiota and health.
● The relationship between probiotics and prebiotics with health and disease.
● Personalized dietary interventions for the gut microbiota.
