Preventive effect of 2016SWU.05.0601 and its postbiotic elements on dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis in mice.

Microbial-based therapies are one of the hotspots in the field of ulcerative colitis research. The lactic acid bacteria and their postbiotics occupy a key position in microbial therapies, however, the mechanism by which they alleviate ulcerative colitis in mice is unknown. We investigated the effects of 2016SWU.

Gut microbiome-based therapies for alleviating cognitive impairment: state of the field, limitations, and future perspectives.

Cognitive impairment (CI) is a multifaceted neurological condition that can trigger negative emotions and a range of concurrent symptoms, imposing significant public health and economic burdens on society. Therefore, it is imperative to discover a remedy for CI. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind the onset of this disease are multifactorial, which makes the search for effective amelioration difficult and complex, hindering the search for effective measures.

Targeting microbiota to alleviate the harm caused by sleep deprivation.

Sleep deprivation has become a common health hazard, affecting 37-58% of the population and promoting the occurrence and development of many diseases. To date, effective treatment strategies are still elusive. Accumulating evidence indicates that modulating the intestinal microbiota harbors significant potential for alleviating the deleterious impacts of sleep deprivation.

Exploring the antioxidant effect of Lactobacillus plantarum SCS2 on mice with type 2 diabetes.

This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant effect of Lactobacillus plantarum SCS2 (L. plantarum SCS2). After 1 week of acclimation, 120 male KM mice were divided into normal group (NG), model group (MG), solvent control group (KG), and different test groups (TG1, TG2, TG3) (n = 20/group) randomly.
