Overview of Hyperuricemia

Hyperuricemia is well-known as a cause of gout. In recent years, many epidemiological studies have also found a correlation between hyperuricemia and the development of hypertension, obesity, renal disease, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Studies in animal models suggested that cardiovascular and kidney diseases could benefit from lowering serum uric acid. Research has shown that probiotics have the potential to improve animal hyperuricemia.

Changes of Gut Microbiota Composition and Hyperuricemia

  • Diversity and Abundance

Changes in the abundance and composition of gut microbiota lead to an increase in serum uric acid levels through impaired uric acid degradation and increased uric acid production.

  • Metabolism of Gut Microbiota in Hyperuricemia

Dysfunction in gut microbiota metabolism may affect serum uric acid levels by affecting host metabolites.

Gut Microbiota as a Potential Therapeutic Target in Hyperuricemia

Hyperuricemia has been studied mainly through the analysis of gut microbiota. Progress has been made in the use of probiotics in the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout. The Clostridiaceae family has been reported to have the ability to degrade uric acid. Lactobacillus rhamnosus R31 and Lactobacillus reuteri L20M3 can promote the production of SCFAs and reduce serum and uric acid concentrations in hyperuricemic mice in a purine-independent manner. Lactobacillus fermentum GR-3 can reduce the amount of uric acid absorbed by the intestinal epithelium into the bloodstream, reduce inflammation in the body, protect intestinal and renal function, and promote uric acid excretion. These results suggest that the gut microbiota may be involved in the pathogenesis of hyperuricemia and may serve as a new target for alleviating and treating hyperuricemia and related diseases.

The Mechanism of the Gut Microbiota Contribution to Hyperuricemia

  • Gut microbiota promotes purines and uric acid catabolism.
  • Metabolites of the gut microbiota increase uric acid excretion.
  • Transporters in the gut mediate uric acid excretion.
  • Gut microbiota and chronic inflammatory mechanisms of hyperuricemia.
