Lactobacillus paracasei as Next Generation Probiotics
Lactobacillus paracasei (L. paracasei) is one strain with powerful benefits. It has great potential in the treatment of the diseases and can be a good candidate strain of live biotherapeutic products (LBP). Creative Biolabs has been engaged in LBP research for more than 10 years. We have built an advanced technology platform and accumulated rich LBP project experience.
Introduction of L. paracasei
L. paracasei is a species of lactic acid bacteria often used in fermented dairy and vegetable products and it is hosted in the human intestinal tract and mouth as a beneficial bacterium with health benefits. L. paracasei is a short or long rod-shaped pleomorphic bacillus with different lengths and generally less than 1.5 μm in width. Gram-positive staining, no motility, no spore production. It is reported to strengthen the immune system and may increase the production of cytokines, making children less susceptible to common infections. In addition, it has been shown to promote natural killer cell activity, lymphocyte proliferation, and antibody production. As a result, it improved symptoms of influenza virus infection in mice, improved survival in mice infected with E. coli, and has anti-inflammatory effects.
L. paracasei for Disease Treatment
Disruption of the intestinal microflora is considered one of the main causes of the disease. L. paracasei subsp. paracasei is a multifunctional strain with anti-inflammatory and regulatory effects on intestinal bacteria associated with the pathogenesis of IBD. Scientists investigated the effects of the strain on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in a mouse model. Results showed that the strain powder improved antioxidant capacity, decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, increased anti-inflammatory cytokine levels, and slightly improved weight loss in DSS-treated mice during the last days of the study. This suggested that the strain powder could alleviate the clinical symptoms of DSS-induced colitis in mice.
Probiotics are considered an option for the prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Studies have shown that the administration of L. paracasei can regulate fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial blood glucose (PBG), glucose tolerance, liver glycogen, and lipid metabolism levels. In addition, L. paracasei was found to have a positive effect on the gene expression levels of glucose metabolism-related to and PI3K/Akt pathway. These results demonstrated that L. paracasei played an important role in preventing the development of T2DM. These findings supported that L. paracasei could be a promising application for the treatment of T2DM.
