“…In this study, the sequencing of gut microbiota revealed an increased Bacteroides and a decreased Ruminococcaceae in UC mice, which led to a decrement of secondary BAs ( Figure 4A ). A similar result was illustrated in recent studies ( Dong et al, 2021 ; Gao et al, 2021 ; Sinha et al, 2020 ). For example, the lack of secondary BAs like DCA and UDCA may aggravate intestinal inflammation due to the inhibition of immune regulators.…”

This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism of Bletilla striata oligosaccharides (BO) in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). A UC mouse model was induced by 3% Dextran sodium sulfate (DSS), and BO (200 mg/kg/d) were administered for intervention. The results show that BO effectively inhibited the release of intestinal inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β. Also, BO profoundly elevated the secretion of mucins and the expression of tight junction (TJ) proteins to attenuate dysfunction of the intestinal barrier. The 16S rDNA sequencing and liquid chromatography/gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC/GC-MS) analysis of mouse feces revealed that BO regulated the disturbance of gut microbiota and intestinal metabolites. By using the in vitro fermentation broth of BO and gut microbiota-depleted mice treated with antibiotics, we confirmed the protection of BO against UC. In conclusion, BO played a role in improving UC by modulating gut microbial composition and intestinal metabolites, which provided new therapeutic strategies for UC treatment.

“…Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is to establish a donor-like gut microbiome by transferring donor fecal microbiota to a recipient [ 17 ]. FMT provides an effective approach to uncover the role of gut microbiota in the pharmacodynamic effect of plant-derived active ingredients [ 18 , 19 ]. To test our hypothesis, we determined the quercetin's effect on improving intestinal damage, redox imbalance, and gut microbial dysbiosis after supplying weanling piglets with dietary 0.1% quercetin supplementation and meanwhile transferred their fecal microbiota to the FMT recipient piglets.…”

Antioxidant polyphenols from plants are potential dietary supplementation to alleviate early weaning-induced intestinal disorders in piglets. Recent evidences showed polyphenol quercetin could reshape gut microbiota when it functioned as anti-inflammation or antioxidation agents in rodent models. However, the effect of dietary quercetin supplementation on intestinal disorders and gut microbiota of weanling piglets, along with the role of gut microbiota in this effect, both remain unclear. Here, we determined the quercetin’s effect on attenuating diarrhea, intestinal damage, and redox imbalance, as well as the role of gut microbiota by transferring the quercetin-treated fecal microbiota to the recipient piglets. The results showed that dietary quercetin supplementation decreased piglets’ fecal scores improved intestinal damage by increasing tight junction protein occludin, villus height, and villus height/crypt depth ratio but decreased crypt depth and intestinal epithelial apoptosis (TUNEL staining). Quercetin also increased antioxidant capacity indices, including total antioxidant capacity, catalase, and glutathione/oxidized glutathione disulfide but decreased oxidative metabolite malondialdehyde in the jejunum tissue. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) from quercetin-treated piglets had comparable effects on improving intestinal damage and antioxidative capacity than dietary quercetin supplementation. Further analysis of gut microbiota using 16S rDNA sequencing showed that dietary quercetin supplementation or FMT shifted the structure and increased the diversity of gut microbiota. Especially, anaerobic trait and carbohydrate metabolism functions of gut microbiota were enriched after dietary quercetin supplementation and FMT, which may owe to the increased antioxidative capacity of intestine. Quercetin increased the relative abundances of Fibrobacteres, Akkermansia muciniphila, Clostridium butyricum, Clostridium celatum, and Prevotella copri but decreased the relative abundances of Proteobacteria, Lactobacillus coleohominis, and Ruminococcus bromii. Besides, quercetin-shifted bacteria and carbohydrate metabolites short chain fatty acids were significantly related to the indices of antioxidant capacity and intestinal integrity. Overall, dietary quercetin supplementation attenuated diarrhea and intestinal damage by enhancing the antioxidant capacity and regulating gut microbial structure and metabolism in piglets.

“…harbor BSH genes ( O'Flaherty et al, 2018 ; Jones et al, 2008 ) that deconjugate BAs to produce SBAs, which have weaker detergent properties creating a less toxic environment for gut bacteria. Unconjugated BAs are less efficiently reabsorbed than conjugated BAs and therefore will pass to the colon where they can be further metabolized to SBAs and interact with TGR5 in colonocytes ( Cipriani et al, 2011 ; Sorrentino et al, 2020 ; Dong et al, 2021 ). In both CBD-treated SS and OVX groups the levels of unconjugated BAs were elevated in ileal content, albeit non-significantly, suggesting that increased amounts can enter the colon for conversion to SBAs.…”

Cannabidiol-Treated Ovariectomized Mice Show Improved Glucose, Energy, and Bone Metabolism With a Bloom in Lactobacillus

Loss of ovarian 17β-estradiol (E2) in postmenopause is associated with gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and increased risk of cardiometabolic disease and osteoporosis. The risk-benefit profile of hormone replacement therapy is not favorable in postmenopausal women therefore better treatment options are needed. Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychotropic phytocannabinoid extracted from hemp, has shown pharmacological activities suggesting it has therapeutic value for postmenopause, which can be modeled in ovariectomized (OVX) mice. We evaluated the efficacy of cannabidiol (25 mg/kg) administered perorally to OVX and sham surgery mice for 18 weeks. Compared to VEH-treated OVX mice, CBD-treated OVX mice had improved oral glucose tolerance, increased energy expenditure, improved whole body areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and bone mineral content as well as increased femoral bone volume fraction, trabecular thickness, and volumetric bone mineral density. Compared to VEH-treated OVX mice, CBD-treated OVX mice had increased relative abundance of fecal Lactobacillus species and several gene expression changes in the intestine and femur consistent with reduced inflammation and less bone resorption. These data provide preclinical evidence supporting further investigation of CBD as a therapeutic for postmenopause-related disorders.
