This mucin-degrading gram-negative bacterium stimulates mucus production and enhances the expression of tight junction proteins, thereby maintaining intestinal barrier integrity. Moreover, it helps to prevent metabolic endotoxemia and systemic inflammation, which are the key factors contributing to the progression of type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. This process plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the intestinal barrier. Research has indicated that a higher level of <em>A. muciniphila</em> is associated with improved metabolic health, while a lack of it is linked to insulin resistance and obesity. Potential treatments for type 2 diabetes include probiotic therapy, polyphenol-rich diets, and prebiotic supplements that increase <em>A. muciniphila</em> levels. This review emphasizes the potential of <em>A. muciniphila</em> as a novel microbiome-directed strategy for the treatment of metabolic diseases as well as its complex role in gut health.

Five experimental groups were employed: control, amoxicillin (9.62 mg/kg), cotrimoxazole (15 mg/kg), cotrimoxazole + amoxicillin, and cotrimoxazole + amoxicillin followed by probiotic administration. Parameters assessed included gut microbial composition, hematological indices, organ weights, liver and kidney function, cytokine profiles, oxidative stress markers, and histopathological alterations. Both antibiotics induced marked gut dysbiosis. Cotrimoxazole significantly increased leukocyte, neutrophil, lymphocyte, and monocyte counts, while amoxicillin caused thrombocytosis and cotrimoxazole induced thrombocytopenia; probiotic treatment normalized these effects. Amoxicillin reduced brain glutathione (GSH) levels, whereas cotrimoxazole decreased GSH in both liver and brain. Combined antibiotic exposure exacerbated GSH depletion and elevated nitric oxide (NO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, effects mitigated by probiotics exposure. Co-exposure to cotrimoxazole and amoxicillin upregulated pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IFN-γ and increased serum markers of hepatic and renal injury (alanine-transaminases, alkaline phosphatases, Aspartate transaminases, creatinine, urea, uric acid). Histopathological analysis confirmed aggravated hepatic and renal damage under combined antibiotic exposure, which was markedly alleviated by probiotics. These findings demonstrate that amoxicillin and cotrimoxazole disrupt gut microbial balance, eliciting systemic oxidative, organ damage and inflammatory responses.

The gut microbiota is recognized as a potential contributor of OSA related comorbidities, including cardiovascular risk. Recent studies have demonstrated that alterations in gut microbial composition are associated with OSA and intermittent hypoxia. Remarkably, the gut-derived metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) has emerged as a putative metabolic link in OSA-associated cardiometabolic risk. In case of OSA, the dysregulated gut metabolic axis may elevate TMAO, which may contribute to endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular risk. Interestingly, experimental studies suggest that hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3), which catalyzes TMAO production, may be influenced by hypoxia-responsive metabolic pathways, raising the possibility that OSA could affect not only the gut microbiome but also host enzymatic regulation. This perspective will enhance and promote gut microbial-based sleep research, particularly targeted TMAO for the potential risk assessment and as a cardiometabolic marker in OSA.

Oxidative stress is a key factor in the pathophysiology of PCOS, spurring interest in antioxidant-based treatment approaches. Many reproductive processes, including ovulation, endometrial decidualization, menstruation, oocyte fertilization, and the growth and implantation of an embryo, depend on oxidative stress (OS). Physiological quantities of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, which function as redox signaling molecules to start and stop each phase, govern the menstrual cycle. Given that an excess of OS in comparison to antioxidants can result in gynecological illnesses, infertility, and reproductive problems, it is thought that a pathological rise in OS plays a role in the loss in female fertility. Antioxidants are therefore necessary for the best possible reproductive function in females. They aid in the hormonal control of vascular processes, support endometrial maturation by activating antioxidant signaling pathways such as Nrf2 and NF-κB, and contribute to oocyte metabolism. Free radicals can be directly neutralized by antioxidants, they can act as cofactors for enzymes essential to cell formation and differentiation, or they can improve the activity of already-existing antioxidant enzymes. Fertility may be increased by taking antioxidant supplements to address deficits.

In addition, LA/DPA mixture strongly suppressed inflammation induced by TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β.
