Antarctica is one of the most pristine and inhospitable regions of the planet, mostly inhabited by microorganisms that survive due to unusual metabolic pathways to adapt to its extreme conditions, which could be interesting for the selection of new probiotics. The aim of the present study was to screen in vitro and in vivo putative probiotics among 254 yeasts isolated from different habitats of An...... hiện toàn bộ
Novel Potential Probiotic Lactobacilli for Prevention and Treatment of Vulvovaginal InfectionsProbiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins - Tập 13 - Trang 163-172 - 2020

Lactobacilli in the vaginal tract are essential to protect against microbial infections. We therefore focused on isolating vaginal lactobacilli from pregnant women and testing their functional properties. Lactobacilli were isolated from 50 vaginal swabs and the purified isolates were identified by MALDI-TOF MS. Functional properties (antimicrobial activity, organic acids and hydrogen peroxide prod...... hiện toàn bộ
Antimicrobial Activity of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ANT1 Toward Pathogenic Bacteria and Mold: Effects on Biofilm FormationProbiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins - Tập 5 - Trang 252-258 - 2013

The intensive use and misuse of antibiotics over the last decades have generated a strong selective pressure for the emergence of multi-resistant strains and nosocomial infections. Biofilm has been demonstrated as a key parameter in spreading infections, especially in hospitals and healthcare units. Therefore, the development of novel anti-biofilm drugs is actually of the upmost importance. Here,...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of Potential Probiotic Lactobacillus Strains on Host Growth and Development in a Drosophila melanogaster ModelProbiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins - Tập 13 - Trang 390-397 - 2020

Lactobacillus paracasei SD1, Lactobacillus rhamnosus SD11, and Lactobacillus gasseri SD12 were proposed as potential probiotics for oral health. However, the effects of them on host physiology are still unknown. This study aimed to select strains that can promote host growth and development in monocolonized Drosophila model compared with axenic and the commercial Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG–treated...... hiện toàn bộ
Understanding Osteoporosis: Human Bone Density, Genetic Mechanisms, Gut Microbiota, and Future ProspectsProbiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins - - Trang 1-9 - 2023
Jayesh J. Ahire, Vikram Kumar, Alka Rohilla
Osteoporosis is a systemic condition of the skeleton that leads to diminished bone mass, a breakdown in the bone tissue’s microscopic architecture, and an elevated risk of breaking a bone. The elderly and women particularly after menopause are disproportionately affected, and the condition generally stays undiagnosed until a broken bone causes severe pain and immobility. Causes of osteoporosis inc...... hiện toàn bộ
Probiotics-Derived Peptides and Their Immunomodulatory Molecules Can Play a Preventive Role Against Viral Diseases Including COVID-19Probiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins - Tập 13 - Trang 611-623 - 2020

As of recent, the pandemic episode of COVID-19, a severe acute respiratory syndrome brought about by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) expanding the pace of mortality, has affected the disease rate profoundly. Invulnerability is the fundamental choice to prevent the ruining event of COVID-19, as the drugs and antibodies are in the phase of preliminary clinical trials. Within this brief period, a fe...... hiện toàn bộ
Dual Role of Probiotic Lactic Acid Bacteria Cultures for Fermentation and Control Pathogenic Bacteria in Fruit-Enriched Fermented MilkProbiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins - - Trang 1-16 - 2023

The food industry has been developing new products with health benefits, extended shelf life, and without chemical preservation. Bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains have been evaluated for food fermentation to prevent contamination and increase shelf life. In this study, potentially probiotic LAB strains, Lactiplantibacillus (Lb.) plantarum ST8Sh, Lacticaseibacillus (Lb.) case...... hiện toàn bộ
