The interaction between gut microbes and the immune system, known as microbiome-immunity crosstalk, influences both how the body responds to infections and how well it recovers. COVID-19, whether in its acute phase or lingering as long COVID, has been linked to disturbances in the gut microbiome. During infection, many patients experience dysbiosis-an imbalance in gut bacteria-that can contribute to immune dysfunction and excessive inflammation. This imbalance may not only worsen the severity of the disease but also prolong recovery, leading to persistent symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and digestive issues. Long COVID, in particular, has been associated with ongoing immune dysregulation, where the body's defense system remains in a state of heightened activation, causing chronic inflammation. Given the strong link between gut health and immunity, there is growing interest in strategies to restore microbial balance. Synbiotics-combinations of probiotics (beneficial bacteria) and prebiotics (nutrients that support them)-are being explored as a potential therapeutic approach. By replenishing beneficial gut microbes, synbiotics may help regulate immune responses, reduce inflammation, and support overall recovery from COVID-19. Emerging research suggests that improving gut health could enhance the body's ability to fight infections and recover more efficiently. As we continue to understand the long-term impact of COVID-19, focusing on the gut microbiome offers a promising path forward. Supporting a balanced and diverse microbiome through diet, lifestyle, and targeted interventions like synbiotics may provide a natural way to strengthen immunity and improve health outcomes in both acute and long COVID cases.</p>","PeriodicalId":13676,"journal":{"name":"Innate Immunity","volume":"31 ","pages":"17534259251362023"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12304597/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144730295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By tracking antiviral immune responses from disease onset to recovery, we sought to assess the feasibility of this method for capturing dynamic changes in viral load and host responses across different IAV strains.MethodsForty-two IAV-negative pigs were divided into four groups and housed separately for infection studies. Viral and host RNA from nasopharyngeal swabs was analyzed using microfluidic qPCR, while statistical analysis was performed with a Bayesian approach in R. Additionally, immunohistochemical staining was used to assess MUC5AC expression in the nasal mucosa of infected pigs.ResultsRNA was successfully isolated from nasopharyngeal swabs, enabling gene expression analysis to monitor innate immune responses to IAV infection. A classical innate antiviral immune response was demonstrated after the three virus infections including expression of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), transcription factors, interferons (IFNs), interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), cytokines, and chemokines. The kinetics and magnitude of immune responses varied between infections, with notable downregulation of mucins following infection with the Danish swine-adapted isolate. Further, the Danish isolate induced a fast but transient IFN-mediated response concurrent with high expression of cytokines and chemokines, while the other swine-adapted Mexican isolate induced a prolonged immune response of ISGs, cytokines, and chemokines.ConclusionThis study highlights the significance of highly translational nasopharyngeal swabs as a non-invasive method for assessing mucosal antiviral immune responses.

Contemporary pharmaceutical interventions, encompassing standard, biological, and emerging small molecule disease- modifying anti-rheumatic medications continue to be the cornerstone of RA management, with substantial advancements made in the pursuit of achieving remission from the disease and preventing joint deformities. Nevertheless, a substantial segment of individuals with RA do not experience a satisfactory response to existing treatments, underscoring the pressing need for novel therapeutic options. Biologic DMARDs are among the therapy choices. Non-tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (Non-TNFi) such as abatacept, rituximab, tocilizumab, and sarilumab are examples, as are anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) medications such as infliximab, adalimumab, etanercept, golimumab, and certolizumab pegol. More recent biomarkers have emerged and showed usefulness in the early detection of RA.
