Gut microbiota and cerebral vessel diseases / 国际脑血管病杂志

Gut microbiota is involved in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. The bidirectional communication between intestinal flora and brain can also be conducted through the neuro-immune-endocrine network, namely, the "microbiota-gut-brain axis". A number of studies have shown that the "microbiota-gut-brain axis" disorder plays an important role in the occurrence, development and prognosis of some cerebrovascular diseases, such as cerebral small vessel disease and stroke. This article introduces the latest research progress of the relationship between gut microbiota and cerebrovascular diseases, so as to provide more ideas and options for the treatment of cerebrovascular diseases.
