Core Tip
Core Tip: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder with a dysregulated gut brain communication. Gut microbiota functional characterization is still underappreciated but their roles have been found to be pivotal. Various microbial species and their metabolites with altered composition and diversity have been found to be specific to IBS. Clinical manipulation of these microbial species improved the symptom profile in IBS patients while the associated mechanisms have been identified for a bidirectional communication between gut microbiota and brain. This in turn seems promising for future treatments specific to microbiota manipulation and targeting various cross-talks for the management of IBS and associated symptoms.
