Article Abstract
H9N2 influenza virus infections represent a significant respiratory health concern, yet the functional role of gut microbiota during infection progression remains poorly understood. Here, we show that H9N2 infection causes dose-dependent alterations in gut microbial communities in a mammalian infection model, particularly the depletion of Prevotella species. Prophylactic administration of Prevotella copri improved survival and clinical outcomes in infected mice by restructuring the gut microbiome, promoting beneficial bacteria, and suppressing pathogens. Metabolomic profiling revealed increased isovaleric acid levels in the intestine and serum. Isovaleric acid pretreatment reduced pulmonary inflammation, alleviated tissue damage, and preserved epithelial integrity. Isovaleric acid pretreatment alleviates lung inflammation, reduces tissue damage, and maintains epithelial integrity. Additionally, isovaleric acid mitigates infection caused by the H1N1 influenza virus. These findings highlight the immunomodulatory role of gut commensals and their metabolites in antiviral defense, offering a new approach to influenza virus treatment.

Synbiotic intervention reverses alcohol drinking-induced cognitive deficits in adolescent male mice by modulating the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Adolescence is characterized by an increased vulnerability to substance abuse, including alcohol consumption. We investigated the effects of a synbiotic intervention on disruptions of the microbiota-gut-brain axis induced by a drinking in the dark model of intermittent alcohol exposure in adolescent mice. We found that alcohol drinking induced specific shifts in gut microbiota, namely it increased Erysipelotrichaceae and reduced fecal butyric and isovaleric acids.

This study investigated the effects of () supplementation on the bacterial community composition and fermentation characteristics of the digestive system, assessed blood antioxidant capacity, and evaluated growth performance and digestibility in pre-weaning Angus calves. Sixteen male Angus calves were randomly divided into two groups ( = 8). The control group was fed a basal diet, while the other group was supplemented with 2 × 10 colony-forming unit/d in the basal diet.

Background: Research on shelf-stacking fermentation is growing, with the aim of reducing labor and improving Daqu stability, but it still falls short compared to traditional stacking fermentation, especially for high-temperature Daqu (HTD). The heterogenetic mechanisms underlying+ these two Daqu remain unclear.
Results: The improved micro-oxygen environment in shelf-stacking fermentation significantly reduced acidity and increased liquefaction and esterification activities compared to traditionally stacked HTD (HTD-T).

Introduction: The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Recent studies have shown that the abundance of is associated with host inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), yet its specific mechanism of action remains to be further investigated.
Methods: The strain 1009924 ( 1009924) was isolated from fresh fecal samples, and its biological characteristics and genomic features were analyzed.

Objectives: Exposure to rare earth elements (REEs) has been linked to various systemic diseases, but their impact on the offspring blood-brain barrier (BBB) via the gut-brain axis remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the effects of maternal exposure to neodymium oxide (NdO) on the BBB integrity of offspring rats, and to evaluate the potential protective role of bifidobacterium tetrad viable tablets (BTVT) against NdO-induced intestinal and BBB damage.
Methods: Healthy adult SD rats were mated at a 1:1 male-to-female ratio, with the day of vaginal plug detection marked as gestational day 0.
