Beyond their role in gas exchange, they must perform a well-orchestrated protective response against foreign invaders. The lungs identify these foreign compounds, respond to them by eliciting an inflammatory response, and restore tissue homeostasis after inflammation to ensure the lungs continue to function. In addition, lung function can be affected by genetics, environmental exposures, and age, leading to pulmonary diseases that infringe on quality of life. Recent studies indicate that diet can influence pulmonary health including the incidence and/or severity of lung diseases. Specifically, long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) have gained attention because of their potential to reduce inflammation and promote resolution of inflammation. Docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid are 2 potentially beneficial n-3 PUFAs primarily acquired through dietary intake. Here we review current literature examining the role of n-3 PUFAs and the biological mechanisms by which these fatty acids alter the incidence and pathologies of chronic lung diseases including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and interstitial lung disease. We also highlight the role of n-3 PUFAs in vulnerable populations such as pre/postnatal children, those with obesity, and the elderly. Lastly, we review the impact of n-3 PUFA intake and supplementation to evaluate if increasing consumption can mitigate mechanisms driving chronic lung diseases.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16620,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition","volume":"155 2","pages":"Pages 453-464"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142468039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Increasingly, research is linking the intestinal microbiota to various human health outcomes. Consumption of traditional prebiotics (inulin, fructo-oligosaccharides, and galacto-oligosaccharides) confers health benefits through substrate utilization by select intestinal microorganisms, namely <em>Bifidobacterium</em> and <em>Lactobacilli</em> spp. A similar but distinct concept focused on microorganisms to support human health is through direct consumption of certain live microorganisms recognized as probiotics, which classically include <em>Lactobacilli or Bifidobacterium</em> strains. With advances in sequencing technologies and culturing techniques, other novel functional intestinal microorganisms are being increasingly identified and studied to determine how they may underpin human health benefits. These novel microorganisms are targeted for enrichment within the autochthonous intestinal microbiota through dietary approaches and are also gaining interest as next-generation probiotics because of their purported beneficial properties. Thus, characterizing dietary approaches that nourish select microorganisms in situ is necessary to propel biotic-focused research forward. As such, we reviewed the literature to summarize findings on dietary approaches that nourish the human intestinal microbiota and benefit health to help fill the gap in knowledge on the connections between certain microorganisms, the metabolome, and host physiology. The overall objective of this systematic review was to summarize the impact of dietary interventions with the propensity to nourish certain intestinal bacteria, affect microbial metabolite concentrations, and support gastrointestinal, metabolic, and cognitive health in healthy adults. Findings from the 17 randomized controlled studies identified in this systematic review indicated that dietary interventions providing dietary fibers, phytonutrients, or unsaturated fatty acids differentially enriched <em>Akkermansia</em>, <em>Bacteroides</em>, <em>Clostridium</em>, <em>Eubacterium</em>, <em>Faecalibacterium</em>, <em>Roseburia</em>, and <em>Ruminococcus</em> species, with variable effects on microbial metabolites and subsequent associations with physiologic markers of gastrointestinal and metabolic health.
