Article Synopsis
- Inflammatory bowel diseases involve ongoing inflammation in the intestines and changes in gut microbiota, which can be influenced by outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) that contain polysaccharide A (PSA).
- The study used a mouse model of intestinal colitis induced by sodium dextran sulfate (DSS) and examined the effects of OMV treatment by assessing disease severity and gut tissue health through disease activity index (DAI) and histology.
- Results indicated that OMV treatment improved intestinal healing and altered microbiota composition, highlighting OMVs’ potential as both anti-inflammatory agents and facilitators of microbiota recovery.
