Milk fat globule membrane protects Bifidobacterium longum ssp. infantis ATCC 15697 against bile stress by modifying global transcriptional responses.

The milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) can protect probiotic bacteria from bile stress. However, its potential mechanism has not been reported. In this study, the viability, morphology and gene transcriptional response of Bifidobacterium longum ssp.

A Review on Maternal and Infant Microbiota and Their Implications for the Prevention and Treatment of Allergic Diseases.

Allergic diseases, which are closely related to the composition and metabolism of maternal and infant flora, are prevalent in infants worldwide. The mother's breast milk, intestinal, and vaginal flora directly or indirectly influence the development of the infant's immune system from pregnancy to lactation, and the compositional and functional alterations of maternal flora are associated with allergic diseases in infants. Meanwhile, the infant's own flora, represented by the intestinal flora, indicates and regulates the occurrence of allergic diseases and is altered with the intervention of allergic diseases.

Heat-Killed Repairs Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Damage via MLCK/MLC Pathway Activation.

Intestinal epithelial barrier function is closely associated with the development of many intestinal diseases. Heat-killed (HK-LP) has been shown to improve intestinal health and enhance immunity. However, the function of HK-LP in the intestinal barrier is still unclear.

Screening of Bifidobacteria with Probiotic Potential from Healthy Infant Feces by Using 2'-Fucosyllactose.

Using 2'-fucosyllactose (2'-FL) as the sole carbon source can be an efficient way to screen bifidobacteria with superior probiotic capabilities since 2'-FL is a key element in promoting the growth of intestinal bifidobacteria in newborns. This approach was used in this work to screen eight bifidobacteria strains, including one strain of subsp. BI_Y46 and seven strains of (BB_Y10, BB_Y30, BB_Y39, BB_S40, BB_H4, BB_H5 and BB_H22).

Ethyl 2-acetyl-hydrazono-2-phenyl-acetate.

The title compound, C(12)H(14)N(2)O(3), was synthesized as an inter-mediate for the synthesis of metamitron. The benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 86.3 (2) and 10.
