A multivariate nutritional analysis indicated that the consumption of erucic acid-rich food, a fatty acid (FA) found primarily in rapeseed and mustard oil, was positively correlated with higher counts of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Furthermore, we showed Lactobacillus johnsonii N6.2, as well as other species of LAB tested from the former Lactobacil...

Probiotics are one of the management tools to improve the host’s healthy microbiota. The positive effects of probiotics on host health are species-specific, so probiotics isolated from host’s own gut may be most beneficial. Many of the metabolites (e.g., short-chain fatty acids, bacteriocins, and hydrogen peroxide) produced by Lactobacillus johnson...

The interactions between the opportunistic pathogen Candida albicans and resident oral bacteria are particularly crucial in maintaining oral health. Emerging antifungal drug-resistant strains, slow-paced drug discovery, and the risk of side effects can compromise the effectiveness of current treatments available for oropharyngeal candidiasis. This ...

Introduction Postpartum endometritis is a prevalent reproductive disorder in bovines, leading to a prolonged open period, infertility, and other complications. While Lactobacillus strains can mitigate these conditions by reducing uterine inflammation, their effectiveness is limited due to a lack of direct anti microbial action and extended treatmen...

Accumulated evidence suggested that gut microbial dysbiosis interplayed with progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, no available therapy is effective in suppressing progressive CKD. Here, using microbiomics in 480 participants including healthy controls and patients with stage 1-5 CKD, we identified an elongation taxonomic chain Bacilli...

While the urogenital microbiota of asymptomatic females is often dominated by species of Lactobacillus, Lactobacillus johnsonii is not a common member. It is more frequently found in the gastrointestinal tract. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of L. johnsonii UMB3423, which was isolated from a voided urine sample.

The present investigation was carried out with the aim to establish the comparative efficacy of a canine-sourced probiotic meant for canine feeding and a conventional dairy-sourced probiotic. For this purpose, canine-origin Lactobacillus johnsonii CPN23 and dairy-origin Lactobacillus acidophilus NCDC15 were evaluated for potential probiotics health...

Probiotic intervention is a well-established approach for replacing antibiotics in the management of weaning piglet diarrhea, which involves a large number of complex systems interacting with the gut microbiota, including the endocannabinoid system; nevertheless, the specific role of the endocannabinoid system mediated by probiotics in the piglet i...

Lactobacillus johnsonii is a commensal bacterium that has been isolated from vaginal and gastrointestinal (GI) tracts of vertebrate hosts, including humans, rodents, swine, and poultry. Lactobacillus-based probiotic supplements are popular because of the health advantages they offer. Species such as L. johnsonii are particularly interesting due to ...

Methicillin-resistant biofilm-forming Staphylococcus spp. are found in about 25% of the overall cases of chronic wounds, which can undergo malignant degeneration and be associated with skin cancer. Although antimicrobial agents are clinically used to counteract pathogens and promote wound healing, they are increasingly ineffective against multi-dru...
