In this study, researchers from China investigated the gut microbiota-mediated transformation of Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) in vivo. The results of their study were published in the Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines.
Based on their findings, the researchers concluded that gut microbiota plays an important role in the biotransformation of PNS into metabolites in vivo.
