The gut, its microbiota, and the liver communicate through complex interactions. This communication, known as the gut-liver axis, plays a crucial role in maintaining liver health and preventing disease. We will explore the role of gut microbiota in the gut-liver axis and delve into the emerging microbiota-based therapies that hold promise for liver diseases.
An integrated study of the gut metagenome and the host molecular phenome suggests new causal mechanisms in hepatic steatosis
