Subgingival microorganisms are potentially associated with periodontal diseases. However, changes in the subgingival microbiota during progress of diseases poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed bacterial communities paper point samples from 32 Korean individuals no sign disease, gingivitis, or periodontitis using 454 FLX Titanium pyrosequencing. A total 256,113 reads representing 26 phyla, 433 genera, and 1,016 species were detected. Bacteroidetes, Fusobacteria, Synergistetes,...
Probiotics in livestock feed supplements are considered a replacement for antibiotics that enhance gastrointestinal immunity. Although bacterial cell wall components have been proposed to be associated with probiotic function, little evidence demonstrates they responsible functions livestock. The present study demonstrated lipoteichoic acid of Lactobacillus plantarum (Lp.LTA) confers anti-inflammatory responses porcine intestinal epithelial line, IPEC-J2. A synthetic analog viral...
In this study, antagonistic activities and probiotic potential of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) derived from a plant-based fermented food, kimchi, were demonstrated. The cell free supernatants (CFS) Lactobacillus curvatus KCCM 43119, Leuconostoc mesenteroides 43060, Weissella cibaria KCTC 3746 W. koreensis 41517 completely inhibited the growth foodborne pathogenic bacteria, while neutralized CFS (pH 6.5) partially growth. competition, exclusion, displacement by LAB strains adhesion to HT-29...
ABSTRACT Bacterial infection can cause inflammatory bone diseases accompanied by the destruction resulting from excess generation of osteoclasts. Although lipoproteins are one major immunostimulating components bacteria, little is known about their effects on metabolism. In this study, we investigated role in bacteria-induced using Staphylococcus aureus wild type, its lipoprotein-deficient mutant, and synthetic lipopeptides Pam2CSK4 Pam3CSK4 to mimic bacterial lipoproteins....
Collagen hydrolysate is a well-known nutritional supplement for the improvement of healthy skin. Here, collagen peptide NS (CPNS) from fish scale was prepared, and its physicochemical properties were investigated. Gly-Pro revealed as representative low molecular weight CPNS, by performing prep-HPLC LC-MS/MS. CPNS treatment attenuated matrix metalloproteinase-1 production increased synthesis type 1 procollagen in HDF cells. After orally administering to rats, plasma concentrations Pro-Hyp...
Triticum dicoccum (Farro)—an ancient wheat species—has recently gained attention for its exceptional health benefits. However, research on antibacterial and anti-biofilm properties remains limited. Additionally, a growing trend has been observed in releasing enriched or fortified whey beverages to enhance their functionality. Therefore, this study aims investigate the inhibitory effects of supplemented with enzyme-rich fermented farro (WF) Salmonella Typhimurium biofilm formation explore...
Periodontitis is caused by multi-bacterial infection and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Enterococcus faecalis are closely associated with inflammatory periodontal diseases. Although lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of A. (Aa.LPS) lipoteichoic acid E. (Ef.LTA) considered to be major virulence factors evoking responses, their combinatorial effect on the induction chemokines has not been investigated. In this study, we investigated interaction between Aa.LPS Ef.LTA IL-8 expression in human...
