TY - EJOU AU - YADAV, POOJA AU - CHAUHAN, NAR SINGH TI - Modulatory role of plant-derived metabolites on host-microbiota interactions: personalized therapeutics outlook T2 - BIOCELL PY - 2024 VL - 48 IS - 8 SN - 1667-5746 AB - A diverse array of microbes in and on the human body constitute the microbiota. These micro-residents continuously interact with the human host through the language of metabolites to dictate the host’s physiology in health and illnesses. Any biotic and abiotic component ensuring a balanced host-microbiota interaction are potential microbiome therapeutic agents to overcome human diseases. Plant metabolites are continually being used to treat various illnesses. These metabolites target the host’s metabolic machinery and host-gut microbiota interactions to overcome human diseases. Despite the paramount therapeutic significance of the factors affecting host-microbiota interactions, a comprehensive overview of the modulatory role of plant-derived metabolites in host-microbiota interactions is lacking. The current review puts an effort into comprehending the role of medicinal plants in gut microbiota modulation to mitigate various human illnesses. It would develop a holistic understanding of host-microbiota interactions and the role of effectors in health and diseases.
