Probiotics are a potential strategy for salmonellosis control. A defined pig microbiota (DPM) mixture of nine bacterial strains previously exhibited probiotic and anti- properties in vitro. Therefore, we evaluated its gut colonization ability and protection effect against LT2-induced infection in the gnotobiotic piglet model. The DPM mixture successfully colonized the piglet gut and was stable and safe until the end of the experiment. The colon was inhabited by about 9 log CFU g with a significant representation of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli compared to ileal levels around 7-8 log CFU g. Spore-forming clostridia and bacilli seemed to inhabit the environment only temporarily. The bacterial consortium contributed to the colonization of the gut at an entire length. The amplicon profile analysis supported the cultivation trend with a considerable representation of lactobacilli with bacilli in the ileum and bifidobacteria with clostridia in the colon. Although there was no significant -positive elimination, it seems that the administered bacteria conferred the protection of infected piglets because of the slowed delayed infection manifestation without translocations of cells to the blood circulation. Due to its colonization stability and potential protective anti- traits, the DPM mixture has promising potential in pig production applications. However, advanced immunological tests are needed.

This study compared the effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG) shielding and mannose-conjugated ligands density on lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for intracellular uptake to macrophages in vitro and accumulation in spleens in vivo. Fabricated phosphatidyl serine-incorporated LNPs (sLNPs) was physically decorated with mannose-conjugated DSPE-PEG (DPM) at different DPM/LNP molar ratios achieving the DPM density from 0 to 0.6 PEGs/nm.

Decades of research document an association between neurocognitive dysfunction and externalizing behaviors, including rule-breaking, aggression, and impulsivity. However, there has been very little work that examines how multiple neurocognitive functions co-occur within individuals and which combinations of neurocognitive functions are most relevant for externalizing behaviors. Moreover, Latent Profile Analysis (LPA), a widely used method for grouping individuals in person-centered analysis, often struggles to balance the tradeoff between good model fit (splitting participants into many latent profiles) and model interpretability (using only a few, highly distinct latent profiles).

Introduction: Diesel particulate matter (DPM) emitted from diesel engines is a major source of air pollutants. DPM is composed of elemental carbon, which adsorbs organic compounds including toxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The skin, as well as airways, is directly exposed to DPM, and association of atopic dermatitis, psoriasis flares, and premature skin aging with air pollutant levels has been documented.
