Dietary supplementation with Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus IDCC3201 alleviates sarcopenia by modulating the gut microbiota and metabolites in dexamethasone-induced models

“…2,7 Probiotics are live microbiota that provide health benefits to the host by maintaining the homeostasis of the intestinal microbiota and the immune system and possessing antiinflammatory and anti-aging properties in human and animal. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Recent studies have shown that Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus species are probiotics, a type of intestinal bacteria, and have been reported to provide various biological activi-ties: 19 anti-inflammatory, 20 anti-obesity, 21 immune modulation, 22 gut health (IBD and IBS), [23][24][25] and cholesterol level reduction. In addition, the Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus IDCC3201 strain used in our study was isolated from infant feces, and it has been confirmed to be 18 anti-allergic, 26 antiinflammatory, anti-pathogenic, 19 and immunomodulatory.…”

The current state of phage therapy in livestock and companion animals

“…Among various alternatives to antibiotic substances, such as probiotics, organic acids, bacteriocins, and antimicrobial peptides, we have focused on the potential of bacteriophages as antimicrobial agents (Fig. 1) [9,[14][15][16][17]. In contrast to indiscriminate bombardment by antibiotics, bacteriophages (phages) possess characteristics akin to guided missiles, selectively infecting and killing specific bacteria (Fig.…”
