Abstract: Tea polyphenols (TPs) are the general compounds of natural polyhydroxyphenols extracted in tea. Although a large number of studies have shown that TPs have obvious neuroprotective and neuro repair effects, they are limited due to the low bioavailability in vivo. However, TPs can act indirectly on the central nervous system by affecting the “microflora–gut–brain axis”, in which the microbiota and its composition represent a factor that determines brain health. Bidirectional communication between the intestinal microflora and the brain (microbe–gut–brain axis) occurs through a variety of pathways, including the vagus nerve, immune system, neuroendocrine pathways, and bacteria-derived metabolites. This axis has been shown to influence neurotransmission and behavior, which is usually associated with neuropsychiatric disorders. In this review, we discuss that TPs and their metabolites may provide benefits by restoring the imbalance of intestinal microbiota and Citation: Zhang, Z.; Zhang, Y.; Li, J.; that TPs are metabolized by intestinal flora, to provide a new idea for TPs to play a neuroprotective Fu, C.; Zhang, X.

It is our goal to help increase the quality of these activities at HDU. To achieve this, we survey students, conduct focus groups and interviews, and research the clubs, organizations, competitions, and collaborative spaces at both United States and Chinese universities. We utilize our findings to evaluate such activities at comparable universities in both China and the United States. With this information, we recommend that entrepreneurship clubs at HDU increase their advertising, increase co-hosting of events, and diversify club entrepreneurship activities. These recommendations aim to help HDU increase participation in entrepreneurship activities at the university.
