Alistipes senegalensis is Critically Involved in Gut Barrier Repair Mediated by Panax Ginseng Neutral Polysaccharides in Aged Mice.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Ginseng polysaccharides (GPs) are known to have beneficial effects on the gut epithelium and age-related systemic-inflammation through regulation of gut microbiota. However, the underlying pathways and key members of the microbial community involved in this process are poorly understood. In this study, administration of ginseng neutral polysaccharide (GPN) is found to alleviate gut leak and low-grade inflammation, concomitantly with improving the physiological function aged mice. Fecal microbiota transplantation and fecal conditioned medium are used to assess the specific involvement of gut bacterial metabolites in the effects of GPNs. Comprehensive multi-omics analyses showed that GPN significantly enriched the abundance of Alistipes senegalensis, an indole-producing commensal bacterium. Increased expression of tight junction-associated proteins, as well as activation of gut stem cells, are found to be mediated by the AhR pathway, indicating the causal mechanism by which GPN reduced increases in gut permeability. The results are verified in Caco-2/THP-1 cells, Caenorhabditis elegans, and enteroids. To the knowledge, this is the first identification of an integral functional axis through which GPN and functional metabolites of A. senegalensis influence the gut barrier and reduce systemic inflammation, providing clues for the potential development of innovative plant polysaccharide treatment strategies to promote healthy aging.
