Gut microbial-mediated polyphenol metabolism is restrained by parasitic whipworm infection and associated with altered immune function in mice

This study shows that polyphenol intake interacts with parasitic whipworm infection in mice, altering immune responses and gut microbial metabolism.

Dietary non-starch polysaccharides impair immunity to enteric nematode infection

This study shows that high levels of non-starch polysaccharides in diet impair type-2 immunity and increase susceptibility to enteric helminth infections in mice.

Garlic-derived organosulfur compounds regulate metabolic and immune pathways in macrophages and attenuate intestinal inflammation in mice

This study shows garlic-derived organosulfur compounds reduce inflammation in macrophages and intestinal epithelial cells, and alter gene expression during intestinal infection in mice.

Dietary Proanthocyanidins Exert Localized Immunomodulatory Effects in Porcine Pulmonary and Gastrointestinal Tissues during Ascaris suum-induced Type 2 inflammation

This study shows that dietary proanthocyanidins enhance intestinal immune and antioxidant responses but have limited effects on pulmonary type-2 inflammation during Ascaris suum infection in pigs.

Parasite-probiotic interactions in the gut: Bacillus sp. and Enterococcus faecium regulate type-2 inflammatory responses and modify the gut microbiota of pigs during helminth infection

This study examines how probiotic mixtures affect helminth infection and gut microbiota in pigs, finding that BBE modulates type-2 inflammation and microbiota but not infection levels.
