Cytokines of the IL-17 family play a key role in the host organism defense against bacterial and fungal infections. At the same time, upregulated synthesis of IL-17 cytokines is associated with immunoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and others. The members of this family are important therapeutic targets in the treatment of various human chronic inflammatory disorders. Elucidation of signaling pathways involving IL-17 family proteins and analysis of the structure of cytokine complexes with specific antibodies, inhibitors, and receptors are essential for the development of new drugs for the therapy of immunoinflammatory rheumatic diseases.

Emerging evidence highlights the significance of peripheral inflammation in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and suggests the gut as a viable therapeutic target. This study aimed to explore the neuroprotective effects of the probiotic formulation VSL#3 and its underlying mechanism in a PD mouse model induced by MPTP. Following MPTP administration, the striatal levels of dopamine and its metabolites, as along with the survival rate of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, were significantly reduced in PD mice.

Background: Evidence has revealed that oestrogen deprivation-induced osteolysis is microbiota-dependent and can be treated by probiotics. However, the underlying mechanism require further investigation. This study aims to provide additional evidence supporting the use of probiotics as an adjuvant treatment and to explore the pathophysiology of oestrogen-deprived osteolysis.

How the gut microbiota and immune system maintain intestinal homeostasis in concert with the enteric nervous system (ENS) remains incompletely understood. To address this gap, we assessed small intestinal transit, enteric neuronal density, enteric neurogenesis, intestinal microbiota, immune cell populations and cytokines in wildtype and T-cell deficient germ-free mice colonized with specific pathogen-free (SPF) microbiota, conventionally raised SPF and segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB)-monocolonized mice. SPF microbiota increased small intestinal transit in a T cell-dependent manner.
