Gut microbiota as a therapeutic target to ameliorate the biochemical, neuroanatomical, and behavioral effects of traumatic brain injuries

While effective traumatic brain injury treatments are currently limited, Rice et al. (2019) believe that gut microbiome manipulation through intake of probiotics may have potential in ameliorating the pathology and symptoms of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of this review was to explore this potential and to describe the role of the gut microbiome […]

Lactobacillus Acidophilus exerts neuroprotective effects in mice with traumatic brain injury

This 2019 study analyzes the neuroprotective potential of gut microbiota remodeling with Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) in traumatic brain injury and its underlying mechanisms. C57BL/6 male mice (aged 8-9 weeks) were subjected to weight-drop impact and given either saline or Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) on the day of injury and each day after for 1, 3, or […]
