Biography

Dong Xue is an Associate Professor and Master’s Supervisor at the School of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, Anhui University of Chinese Medicine, China. His research focuses on the gut microbiota–brain axis in neurodegenerative and metabolic diseases, with particular emphasis on microbiota-mediated mechanisms by which herbal medicine-derived bioactive compounds regulate microbial metabolism, intestinal barrier integrity, neuroinflammation, and cognitive impairment. His work combines microbial isolation and cultivation, multi-omics profiling, animal disease models, and mechanistic validation to develop microbiota-dependent intervention strategies for Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders. He has authored nearly 20 SCI-indexed publications in journals including Phytomedicine, Journal of Translational Medicine, and Frontiers in Microbiology, and actively mentors graduate and undergraduate students.
