The Gut Microbiome's Role in Brain Degeneration and Treatment Progress
Updated
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.
