Gut Microbiota in Neurologic and Visceral Diseases presents readers with comprehensive information on the involvement of microbiota in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. Chapters cover the effect of microbiota on the development of visceral (obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease) and neurological disorders (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's, depression, anxiety, and autism). Sections focus on the molecular mechanisms and signal transduction processes associated with the links among microbiota-related visceral and neurological disorders. It is hoped that this discussion will not only integrate and consolidate knowledge in this field but will also jumpstart more studies on the involvement of microbiota in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. - Reviews the relationship between gut microbiome, diseases and disorders - Discusses the relationship between diet, microbiota and inflammation - Includes neurodegenerative, neuropsychiatric and cardiovascular disorders - Covers diabetes, obesity and metabolic disorders - Identifies molecular mechanisms and signal transduction processes - Encompasses dietary fiber, fat, prebiotics and probiotics
