Flammulina velutipes residue Polysaccharide Alleviates Immunosuppression and Intestinal Injury by Modulating Gut Microbiota and Associated Metabolites

). FVRP facilitates the accumulation of short-chain fatty acids. Untargeted metabolomic analyses of cecal content revealed that FVRP treatment notably restored the levels of 32 endogenous metabolites altered by CTX. Based on a pseudosterility mice model, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), and fecal filtrate transplantation (FFT), gut microbiota and associated metabolites were demonstrated to play a crucial role in the immunomodulatory and protective effects of FVRP against intestinal injury. In conclusion, FVRP exhibits significant potential as an immune enhancer and natural therapeutic agent for alleviating intestinal inflammatory conditions.
