Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied the effects of CVL-001, a probiotic derived from kimchi, on mice suffering from colitis caused by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS), finding that it reduced weight loss and improved colon health.
- The administration of CVL-001 enhanced the microbiota composition, decreased inflammatory gene expressions, and restored important gut health genes, though it wasn’t effective in mice kept together in a shared environment.
O-GlcNAcylated proteins are abundant in the brain and are associated with neuronal functions and neurodegenerative diseases. Although several studies have reported the effects of aberrant regulation of O-GlcNAcylation on brain function, the roles of O-GlcNAcylation in synaptic function remain unclear. To understand the effect of aberrant O-GlcNAcylation on the brain, we used Oga mice which have an increased level of O-GlcNAcylation, and found that Oga mice exhibited impaired spatial learning and memory.
