Metabolic disease is a worldwide epidemic that has become a public health problem. Gut microbiota is considered to be one of the important factors that maintain human health by regulating host metabolism. As an abundant bacterium in the host gut, regulates metabolic and immune functions, and protects gut health.

Trichinellosis caused by is a worldwide food-borne parasitic zoonosis. Several approaches have been performed to control infection, including veterinary vaccines, which contribute to improving animal health and increasing public health by preventing the transmission of trichinellosis from animals to humans. In the past several decades, many vaccine studies have been performed in effort to control infection by reducing the muscle larvae and adult worms burden.

Cinobufagin (CBG), one active ingredient isolated from Venenum Bufonis, has been demonstrated to have immunoregulatory effect. The aim of this study was to investigate whether CBG can enhance the protective efficacy of formalin-inactivated Salmonella typhimurium (FIST) in mice. ICR mice were immunized with FIST (10 CFU/mouse) alone or mixed with CBG (10, 20, and 40 μg) or alum (200 μg) on day 1 and day 15.

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) infections are responsible for great losses in the poultry industry. Quorum sensing (QS) acts as a global regulatory system that controls genes involved in bacterial pathogenesis, metabolism and protein biosynthesis. However, whether QS of APEC is related to cell damage has not been elucidated.

Phloretin, a natural component of many fruits, exhibits anti-virulence effects and provides a new alternative to counter bacterial infection. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of subinhibitory concentrations of phloretin on the virulence of Salmonella typhimurium. At concentrations where growth of Salmonella was not inhibited, phloretin significantly inhibited bacteria biofilm formation and motility.
