Welcome to the new academic journal OBM Hepatology and Gastroenterology. Recent progress in understanding liver, biliary, pancreatic and gastro-intestinal diseases and their treatments has been observed in the world. OBM Hepatology and Gastroenterology publishes interesting and informative reviews, original articles, and invaluable case reports in this area. We also publish basic research as well as clinical research.
Hepatitis A virus (HAV), HBV, HCV, HDV, and HEV are still a serious issue worldwide. Treatments on these viruses have recently improved. However, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma are still critical conditions. We focus on all of these liver diseases. We also focus on broad-spectrum of gastro-intestinal diseases in this journal.

About this Topic
Gut microbiota (GM) has close interaction with human metabolism and immune system. Gut and distant sites microbiome, directly or indirect mechanisms of impact on gut and metabolic health via interaction with intestinal mucosa and producing metabolites. The issue "Gut Microbiota and Gut Health" covers the novel aspects of gut health associated with microbiome, includes contributions on innovative hypotheses, basic research and clinical trials capable to increase the up to date evidence. Studies of complexity of microbial composition and diversity as a potential diagnostic and predictive biomarker and potential targeted treatments based on modulating mirobiome, namely using probiotics, prebiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), dietary interventions and novel treatment approaches which need personalization.

The Effects of Mediterranean Diet on the Human Gut Microbiota; a Brief Discussion of Evidence in HumansAbstract The Mediterranean diet (MD) is considered one of the healthiest dietary patterns due to its rich provision of phytochemicals, antioxidants, vitamins, fiber, polyunsaturated, omega-3, and short-chain fatty acids through a variety of foods. The supply of such nutrients and bioactive components can support gut health and reduce systemic inflammat [...] |
Deconstructing then Priming Gut Microbiota ResilienceAbstract The human intestinal microbiota represents a complex microbial community that plays an essential role in the maintenance of host health. Over the last decade, metagenomic and metabolomic analyses have revealed the influence of intestinal microbial diversity and composition on a range of biological functions in the host. While overall taxonomic [...] |
Multi-Species Probiotic Modulates Cytokine Production and the Interplay between Immune and Colon Cancer CellsAbstract The current study aimed to investigate the effect of a multi-species probiotic (MSP) on cytokine production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and their immune dialogue with HT-29 colon cancer cells. PBMCs were incubated with MSP and their effect on cell proliferation and TNFα, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IFNγ, IL-10, and IL-1ra [...] |
