Ligilactobacillus-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Inhibit Growth and Virulence of Enteric Pathogens.

Bacterial intra-kingdom communication involves the secretion of outer membrane vesicles as signaling carriers to the target cells. However, limited research exists on extracellular vesicles (EVs) from Gram-positive gut bacteria, their interactions with enteric pathogens, and potential inhibitory effects. In this study, we characterized the structure, protein content, and inhibitory effects of EVs from three new potential probiotic gut symbionts, Ligilactobacillus salivarius UO.

Dual bacteriocin and extracellular vesicle-mediated inhibition of by the potential probiotic candidate UO.C249.

Unlabelled: () is one of the most common causes of foodborne infections worldwide and a major contributor to diarrheal diseases. This study aimed to explore the ability of commensal gut bacteria to control infection. Bacterial strains from the intestinal mucosa of broilers were screened against ATCC BAA1153.

A Two Bacteriocinogenic Ligilactobacillus Strain Association Inhibits Growth, Adhesion, and Invasion of Salmonella in a Simulated Chicken Gut Environment.

In this study, we aimed to develop a protective probiotic coculture to inhibit the growth of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in the simulated chicken gut environment. Bacterial strains were isolated from the digestive mucosa of broilers and screened in vitro against Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 14028. A biocompatibility coculture test was performed, which identified two biocompatible strains, Ligilactobacillus salivarius UO.
