Limosilactobacillus fermentum modulates the gut-airway axis by improving the immune response through FOXP3 activation on combined allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome (CARAS).

Combined allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome (CARAS) is an allergic airway inflammatory disorder orchestrated by the type 2 immune response. The close gut-lung relationship has been described, however, the effect of gut-modulating agents such as probiotics in allergic airway disorder is unclear. Thus, the goal of this study was to evaluate theLimosilactobacillus fermentumsupplementation in animals with CARAS.

A New Ferulic Acid-Nicotinamide Cocrystal With Improved Solubility and Dissolution Performance.

Among the various strategies for increasing aqueous solubility of pharmaceutical substances, cocrystals have been emerging as a promising alternative. The ferulic acid (FEA) is a molecule with limited aqueous solubility, but with an interesting pharmacological activity, highlighting its antitumor potential. This study presents the characterization and physicochemical properties of a new cocrystal based on FEA and nicotinamide (NIC).
