The gut microbiome: an important role in neurodegenerative diseases and their therapeutic advances
The Gut Microbiome's Role in Brain Degeneration and Treatment Progress
AI simplified
Abstract
Gut microbiota is associated with the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Changes in gut microbiota have been observed in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
- Research suggests that gut microbiota may play a role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Therapeutic approaches targeting gut microbial abnormalities include antibiotics, diet, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation.
- Some clinical trials are ongoing to explore interventions involving gut microbes for neurodegenerative diseases.
