Abstract :

Imbalance in gut-microbial composition (Dysbiosis) triggers chronic inflammation. Therefore, application of probiotics to re-establish gut-equilibrium is recognized as promising strategy to mitigate inflammation and related diseases. However, the mechanism remains elusive. Here, using systematic network and metaanalysis, we have elucidated the potential mechanism of probiotics to mitigate inflammation and thereby provides a biotherapeutic strategy to deal with recent two important diseases: COVID-19 and colorectal cancer.
