Potential brain-protective effects of Leuconostoc mesenteroides in a lab model of Alzheimer's disease

Updated

Abstract

Leuconostoc mesenteroides lysate and its bioactive metabolites may offer neuroprotective effects in an amyloid-beta-induced neuroblastoma model.

  • Alzheimer's disease is characterized by amyloid-beta accumulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuroinflammation.
  • Probiotics may have therapeutic potential through the gut-brain axis.
  • The molecular mechanisms by which probiotics exert their effects are not well understood.
  • This study specifically examines the effects of Leuconostoc mesenteroides on neuronal cells.
