Gastrointestinal microbiome modulation

Molecular classification
Biological process, Therapeutic strategy
01

Overview

Gastrointestinal microbiome modulation refers to the intentional alteration of the composition, diversity, or activity of the microbial community within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This process aims to improve host health by influencing various physiological functions, including metabolism, immune regulation, and protection against pathogens. Strategies include dietary interventions, prebiotics, probiotics, antibiotics, post-biotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation.

Other names
Gut microbiota modulationIntestinal flora manipulation
02

Mechanism of action

Modulation of the gastrointestinal microbiome through dietary interventions, prebiotics, probiotics, antibiotics, post-biotics, or fecal microbiota transplantation to alter the composition, diversity, or activity of the microbial community within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, aiming to improve host health.
