We evaluated the effects of probiotic candidate Lactobacillus paracasei DTA81 (DTA81) on liver oxidative stress, colonic cytokine profile, and gut microbiota in mice with induced early colon carcinogenesis (CRC) by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Animals were divided into four different groups (n = 6) received following treatments via orogastric gavage for 8 weeks: Group skim milk (GSM): 300 mg/freeze-dried milk/day; L. (DTA81): 3 × 109 colony-forming units (CFU)/day; rhamnosus GG (LGG):...

In-vitro/In-vivo evaluation of cholesterol-lowering probiotic strain Lactobacillus paracasei DTA81 and the possible connection with gut microbiota modulation.In present study, has been evaluated for influence on blood lipid glucose concentrations, modulation immune system, gastrointestinal survivability in BALB/c mice receiving a high-fat diet. After 6 weeks treatment, significant reduction total cholesterol fasting sugar (FBS) among animals treated L. recorded. Comparison colon tissue...

Abstract The objective of the present study was to evaluate effect probiotic VSL#3 isolated or associated with a yacon‐based product (synbiotic) on oxidative stress modulation and intestinal permeability in an experimental model colorectal carcinogenesis. Forty‐five C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups: control (standard diet AIN‐93 M); M multispecies VSL#3, 2.25 × 10 9 CFU), synbiotic product, 6% fructooligosaccharides inulin, CFU). diets provided for 13 weeks. showed antioxidant...

Kefir has been suggested as a possible bacterial prophylaxis against Salmonella and IL-10 production seems to be crucial in the pathogenesis of salmonellosis mice. This study evaluated role inflammation gut microbiome mice consuming milk kefir orally challenged with enterica serovar Typhimurium. C57BL wild type (WT) (n = 40) IL-10-/- (KO) were subdivided into eight experimental groups either treated or not kefir. In first 15 days, water received filtered (0.1 mL) while (10% w/v) by gavage....

Abstract Aims Salmonellosis, a major global cause of diarrheal diseases, significantly impacts the intestinal microbiome. Probiotic-rich beverages, such as kefir, are increasingly utilized alternative health-promoting beverages associated with various microbiota benefits. This study investigated repercussions daily consumption household-produced milk kefir on Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium infection in C57BL-6 mice. Methods and Results Kefir pre reduced presence inflammatory cells...

Abstract The development of colorectal cancer involves some morphological changes, and in the initial stage, pre-neoplastic lesions called aberrant crypt foci (ACF) appear. Thus, an intervention with sources bioactive compounds such as Hibiscus sabdariffa L., rich phenolic anthocyanins, could attenuate risk developing these due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory anti-proliferative properties. Therefore, aim this study was evaluate effects 5 % 10 supplementation dehydrated H. calyces...
