Lactobacilli are GRAS organisms and are important members of gut microbiota. They have been strongly recommended as probiotics because of many benefits provided by them to overall human health. Human gut lactobacilli with salutary properties can provide additional advantages. Limosilactobacillus fermentumL1 MW600457, L. fermentumL3 MW600480, L. fermentumL4 MW600464, L. fermentumL5 MW600493, L. fermentumL6 MW600495, L. fermentumL7 MW600496, L. fermentumL8 MW485761, Lactiplantibacillus plantarumL9 MW485746, and Ligilactobacillus salivariusL10 MW600498 with in vitro probiotic properties were explored for salutogenic characteristics. Salutary properties like β-galactosidase activity, anthelminthic property assay, anti-inflammatory assay, antidiabetic study, cholesterol assimilation assay, and biofilm assay were performed. All the isolates were positive for β-galactosidase activity. The anthelminthic property with minimum paralysis time and death time between 16-25 min was shown by L.fermentumL8 MW485761. Anti-inflammatory activity with bovine serum albumin was maximum at 200 μg ml-1 concentration. α-amylase inhibitory activity was maximum for L. fermentumL8 MW485761 (51%). Maximum cholesterol assimilation was reported for L. fermentumL6 MW600495 (76%). Strong biofilm forming ability for all isolates improved the colonization and stability as probiotics. Human gut lactobacilli with salutary properties can make an efficient probiotic.

Recently, 3-D porous architecture of the composites play a key role in cell proliferation, bone regeneration, and anticancer activities. The osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties of β-TCP allow for the complete repair of numerous bone defects. Herein, β-TCP was synthesized by wet chemical precipitation route, and their 3-D porous composites with HBO and Cu nanoparticles were prepared by the solid-state reaction method with improved mechanical and biological performances.

Gut microbiota disruptions after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) are associated with increased risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). We designed a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial to test whether healthy-donor fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) early after alloHCT reduces the incidence of severe aGVHD. Here, we report the results from the single-arm run-in phase which identified the best of 3 stool donors for the randomized phase.

Background: Recent studies have focused on the relationship between obesity and gut microbiota. This study aims to identify fecal components and gut bacterial species associated with different BMI categories.
Methods: In this study, 538 participants aged ≥18 years were categorized into underweight, normal, and obese groups based on BMI (cutoffs: 18.

We present a case of an 88-year-old man with symptoms consistent with a urinary tract infection, whose diagnostic workup uncovered a previously unrecognized motile flagellated protozoan. Molecular identification confirmed the organism as Dimastigella trypaniformis, a free-living kinetoplastid from the Rhynchomonadidae family. Known only from soil samples in Scotland and termite gut contents in Australia and Germany, Dimastigella trypaniformis has not been previously reported to infect vertebrate hosts.

Background: Research links gut microbiota to postoperative delirium (POD) through the gut-brain axis. However, changes in gut microbiota and fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in POD patients during the perioperative period and their association with POD are unclear.
Methods: We conducted a nested case-control study among patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, focusing on POD as the main outcome.
