Liu, Yiting; Li, Longjie; Feng, Jing; Wan, Bing; Tu, Qiang; Cai, Wei; Jin, Fa; Tang, Guiying; Rodrigues, L. R.; Zhang, Xiuwei; Yin, Jia; Zhang, YunleiChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a condition primarily linked to oxidative stress, poses significant health burdens worldwide. Recent evidence has shed light on the association between the dysbiosis of gut microbiota and COPD, and their metabolites have emerged as potential modulators of disease progression through the intricate gut-lung axis. Here, we demonstrate the efficacy of oral administratio...
