The gut is a vast and complicated ecosystem in which microbes, nutrients, and host cells all interact extensively, a process critical for gut homeostasis and host health. The gut microbiota performs a variety of tasks, including metabolic, barrier, and trophic functions. As a result, several diseases have been linked to alterations in the gut microbiota. Hazardous materials (HM) entering the human body cause a lot of health problems that raise global concerns. Human society pays huge efforts to prevent HM including soil, and water remediation. However, current methods can’t cover major HMs get into human bodies by air, water, food, etc. Also, the human body can convert chemicals to HMs such as uric acid. Recent developments showed that probiotics can decrease human body HMs accumulation which is called gut remediation. Literature showed that probiotics can degrade antibiotics, organic compounds in the gut. It can also interact with the gut microbiome to absorb heavy metals which prevent heavy metals enter the body system. Comparing to physiochemical remediation, gut remediation has certain advantages. It has very cost-effective, fast results and deals with the human body directly. This is a hot topic and lots of related studies have been published lately.
This Research Topic will describe probiotics, gut microbiota, and their roles in alleviating the toxicity of different environmental pollutants. Most important of all, this Research Topic will bring up new concept-gut remediation, a potential approach to reducing environmental pollutants toxicity in vivo. Even though there is a lot of progress in this field, but there are still many questions that remain to be answered. How do probiotics degrade HMs in Gut? Is gut microbiome necessary for gut remediation? How probiotics interact with the gut microbiome to remediation HMs. This Research Topic also seeks answers to these imperative questions.
The Research Topic focuses on the mechanism related to the participation of probiotics and gut microbiota in the prevention of intestinal repair from environmental pollution of heavy metals, which aims to further understand the function of probiotics and prevention to accelerate the relative achievement put to clinical use. We welcome contributions from all relevant studies on HMs toxicity in vivo and remediation/removal of these HMs in model animals Gut by probiotics and host intestine microbiome.
The sub-topics to be covered within the issue should be provided:
1. Employment of probiotics control gut homeostasis under the diverse HMs polluted environment.
2. The interaction between probiotics and the microorganisms in vivo, as well as the relevant mechanism in the process of gut remediation influence probiotics and gut microbiota structure.
3. Gut remediation might be a proposed model in humans and animals by treating HMs toxicity and efficient at repairing tissue damages caused by HMs pollution.
