Journal ArticleDOI

Gut Microbiota and Extreme Longevity.

TL;DR: This work provides for the first time the phylogenetic microbiota analysis of semi-supercentenarians, i.e., 105-109 years old, in comparison to adults, elderly, and centenarian, thus reconstructing the longest available human microbiota trajectory along aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact on the composition of the faecal flora by a new probiotic preparation: preliminary data on maintenance treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis

TL;DR: Clinical and experimental observations have suggested the potential role of probiotics in inflammatory bowel disease therapy and the standard maintenance treatment for ulcerative colitis in remission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of human dendritic cell phenotype and function by probiotic bacteria

TL;DR: Probiotic bacteria differ in their immunomodulatory activity and influence polarisation of immune responses at the earliest stage of antigen presentation by dendritic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of probiotic Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains with human intestinal epithelial cells: adhesion properties, competition against enteropathogens and modulation of IL-8 production.

TL;DR: Probiotic strains belonging to Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium have the potential to protect enterocytes from an acute inflammatory response and are potential candidates for the development of new functional foods helpful in counteracting enteropathogen infections.
