Scope: The gut microbiota plays a role in fat accumulation and energy homeostasis. Therefore, probiotic supplementation may improve metabolic parameters and control body weight.

Methods And Results: In this study, mice are fed either a high-fat diet (HFD) or an HFD supplemented with oral gavage of a mixture of three probiotic strains, Bifidobacterium lactis Lafti B94, Lactobacillus plantarum HA-119, and Lactobacillus helveticus Lafti L10 for 7 weeks.

Article Synopsis
  • A significant rise in enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) cases has been observed in northern Italy since July 2024, leading to an outbreak of acute respiratory infections that now represents about 90% of enterovirus infections in the region.
  • Surveillance efforts, both community-based and hospital-based, have identified EV-D68 in patients with varying severity of respiratory symptoms, linking it to two specific strains, B3 and a unique A2 lineage.
  • There has also been a noticeable increase in cases among adults, highlighting the need for improved surveillance and molecular analysis of EV-D68 throughout Europe.

Background: Recent advances linking gut dysbiosis with neurocognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) suggest that the microbiota-gut-brain axis could be targeted for AD prevention, management, or treatment.

Objective: We sought to identify probiotics that can delay Aβ-induced paralysis.

Methods: Using C.
