The rampant use of antibiotics has led to the emergence multidrug resistance and is often coupled with gut dysbiosis. To circumvent harmful impact antibiotics, probiotics have emerged as an effective intervention. However, while new are being added list, more recently, nature role their counterparts, viz. prebiotics, postbiotics parabiotics also drawn considerable attention. As such, intricate relationships among these gut-biotics vis-à-vis in imparting health benefits be delineated a holistic manner. Prebiotic dietary fibers selectively fermented by promote colonization gut. proliferation leads production fermentation by-products (postbiotics) which affect growth enteropathogens lowering pH producing inhibitory bacteriocins. After completing life-cycle, dead remnants (parabiotics e.g. exopolysaccharides cell wall glycoproteins) inhibit adhesion biofilm formation pathogens on epithelium. These beneficial effects not just endemic but systemic response witnessed at different gut-organ axes. Thus, decipher probiotics, it imperative unravel interdependence between components. This review elaborates recent advancements various aspects mechanism potential attributes like anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-neoplastic, anti-lipidemic anti-hyperglycemic benefits.

Yeast Strains as Probiotic and Postbiotic Agents for the Agglutination of Enteric Pathogens: A Preventive Approach

Pathogens, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(2), P. 113 - 113

This study evaluates the potential of various yeast strains as probiotic and postbiotic agents for agglutinating enteric pathogens, offering a preventive approach to gastrointestinal infections. Different species were tested in vitro against range pathogenic bacteria, including enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli ETEC, Shigella flexneri, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, Enteritidis, assess their capacity pathogen agglutination. Additionally, inactivated yeasts obtained using novel chemical treatment employed explore efficacy agents. The results suggest that both live are able agglutinate different potentially limiting bacterial colonization. Notably, we also demonstrated Wickerhamomyces anomalus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia fermentans, exhibiting agglutination activity, capable reducing adhesion HeLa cells vitro. research highlights yeast’s supports development yeast-based products preventing
