Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis genome resources and metabolite profiling at the strain level and their ability to alleviate anxiety-like behavior in a sleep-deprived mouse... by Yao-Kun Zhang, Liang Zhang, Xue Ni, Shu-Wen Zhang, Min-Zhi Jiang, Si-Lu Zhang, Guo-Xun Xiao, He Jiang, Ming-Xia Bi, Yu-Lin Wang, Chang Liu, Shuang-Jiang Liu

“…In vivo, WLBA3 reduced inflammation and oxidative stress by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and modulating gut microbiota (e.g., Lactobacillus and Alistipes), which in turn significantly improved weight gain and fatigue resistance, attenuated cognitive function, and anxiety-like behavior. These findings provide insights into the diversity of B. animalis subsp. lactis strain resources and highlight the potential of WLBA3 as a candidate for alleviating sub-health symptoms.…”
