The aim of this study was to examine the effect of free or immobilized OLXAL-1 cells on oat flakes on the gut microbiota and metabolic and inflammatory markers in a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced Type-1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) animal model. Forty-eight male Wistar rats were assigned into eight groups (n = 6): healthy or diabetic animals that received either a control diet (CD and DCD), an oat-supplemented diet (OD and DOD), a diet supplemented with free OLXAL-1 cells (CFC and DFC), or a diet supplemented with immobilized OLXAL-1 cells on oat flakes (CIC and DIC). Neither OLXAL-1 nor oat supplementation led to any significant positive effects on body weight, insulin levels, plasma glucose concentrations, or lipid profile parameters.

Background/objectives: The gut microbiota is linked to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), while supplementation with probiotics may result in positive alterations in the composition of the gut microbiome. This research aimed to map the changes in the gut microbiome and blood markers of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats after a dietary intervention with free or immobilized cells of the presumptive probiotic SK on pistachio nuts.

Methods: Twenty-four male Wistar rats were studied and divided into four groups (healthy or diabetic) which received the free or the immobilized .

Article Synopsis
  • - The study explored the impact of including probiotic cells (ORE5) in Corinthian currants on the gut microbiome of diabetic rats, comparing effects between free and immobilized forms of the probiotic.
  • - Results showed that diabetic rats consuming immobilized ORE5 had lower inflammation levels and a more favorable gut bacteria profile, with increased beneficial lactobacilli and reduced harmful coliforms.
  • - The findings suggest that functional foods could help improve gut health in Type-1 Diabetes Mellitus, but more clinical trials are needed to verify these benefits in humans.
