The objective of our organization is to facilitate and expedite the research endeavors of life science researchers worldwide by providing superior products and services.
Overview
Increasing evidence has shown that intestinal flora plays an important role in maintaining liver health. Probiotics play a preventive role in liver injury by restoring intestinal flora, increasing the integrity of the intestinal wall, and reducing endotoxemia, bacterial translocation, and epithelial invasion. Thus, modulation of the gut microbiota can simultaneously activate cathelicidin production and stimulate host immunity, representing a potential approach to liver protection. In addition, probiotics attenuate oxidative and inflammatory liver injury. Probiotics and post-probiotics have shown promise in rescuing liver disease and exogenous hepatotoxicity as well as restoring normal liver function.
Hepatoprotective Mechanisms of Probiotics
Probiotics have therapeutic effects on a variety of liver diseases, including cirrhosis, hepatic encephalopathy, sclerosing cholangitis, fatty liver disease (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), hepatocellular carcinoma, etc. Probiotics can inhibit hepatic oxidative stress, which is a common pathological phenomenon in a variety of liver diseases. In addition, probiotics can improve intestinal barrier integrity and prevent liver transfer of pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, it can be said that probiotics exert liver protection through multiple mechanisms.

Probiotics and Hepatotoxicity
Different probiotics have different protective mechanisms against acetaminophen (APAP) hepatotoxicity.
E. lactis IITRHR1 has a protective effect on APAP-induced hepatocyte injury, and the mechanism may be related to the antioxidant effect of this probiotic.
S. thermophilus could reduce the levels of ALT, AST, and ALP in the serum of experimental rats, which proved its hepatoprotective effect.
Akkermansia muciniphila can alleviate APAP-induced acute liver injury by regulating intestinal flora and metabolism, inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammatory response, and regulating various signaling events.
