Neurotransmitter and Intestinal Interactions: Focus on the Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis in Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Minjia Chen et al.

Summary: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder with unknown causes, and disruption in the gut-brain axis is believed to be the cause. Recent studies have shown that neurotransmitters play an important role in IBS, affecting blood flow regulation, intestinal motility, immune system, and gut microbiota. These studies have shed light on the mechanisms of neurotransmitters in the pathogenesis of IBS and provided new therapeutic strategies targeting the nervous system or microbiota.

Modulation of Gut Microbiota by Essential Oils and Inorganic Nanoparticles: Impact in Nutrition and Health

Veronica Lazar et al.

Summary: Microbiota modulation is a biomedical priority and current studies are focused on the development of functional nanoparticles and plant products to combat resistant pathogens. Concerns regarding their potential activity against human microbiota have been raised. Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in this context.

S-limonene protects the heart in an experimental model of myocardial infarction induced by isoproterenol: Possible involvement of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species

Paula Rhana et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the cardioprotective effects of s-limonene in an isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction (MI) animal model and the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that s-limonene attenuated isoproterenol-induced MI injury by inhibiting increased Ca2+ and attenuating oxidative stress through the CaMKII pathway.

Geraniol Treatment for Irritable Bowel Syndrome: A Double-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

Chiara Ricci et al.

Summary: Geraniol, an acyclic monoterpene alcohol, has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties and positive effects on gut microbiota in IBS patients. In this study, IBS patients treated with a low-absorbable geraniol food supplement (LAGS) showed a significant reduction in IBS symptoms severity score compared to placebo. Geraniol administration also resulted in changes in gut microbiota composition, with a decrease in Oscillospira and an increase in Faecalibacterium. The findings suggest that LAGS is effective in treating overall IBS symptoms and improving gut microbiota profile, particularly in the IBS mixed subtype.

Effect of a Fiber D-Limonene-Enriched Food Supplement on Intestinal Microbiota and Metabolic Parameters of Mice on a High-Fat Diet

Maria Chiara Valerii et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that D-Limonene can improve metabolic parameters in obese mice via various mechanisms, including modulation of intestinal microbiota. Administering a food supplement containing D-Limonene adsorbed on dietary fibers to mice on a high-fat diet led to decreased weight gain and improved metabolic profile, highlighting the potential non-toxic and effective use of this supplement in combating obesity.

The Antioxidant Activity of Limonene Counteracts Neurotoxicity Triggered byAβ1-42 Oligomers in Primary Cortical Neurons

Ilaria Piccialli et al.

Summary: The study shows that limonene, a primary component of Citrus genus, has neuroprotective effects by preventing oxidative stress and hyperactivity of K(V)3.4 induced by A beta(1-42) oligomers, thus preventing cell death in primary cortical neurons.

Collaborative Study of Thresholds for Mutagens: Hormetic Responses in Cell Proliferation Tests Using Human and Murine Lymphoid Cells

Shizuyo Sutou et al.

Summary: Hormetic responses were established in cell proliferation tests using suspended human and murine lymphoid cells, with a reverse U-shaped curve in the dose-response relationship indicating the occurrence of hormesis. The responses were dependent on the test chemical, dose level, and exposure time, showing J-shaped or fallen S-shaped curves over time. Chemical hormesis can be established in in vitro cell proliferation tests.
