Faecalibacterium prausnitzii: A Next-Generation Probiotic in Gut Disease Improvement by Xiaoya He, Shuyang Zhao, Yan Li

“…The researchers are paying more attention to the role of gut commensal bacteria in health development beyond the classical pathogens. It has been widely demonstrated that dysbiosis, which means the alternations of the gut microbial structure, is closely associated with development of intestinal chronic inflammation-related diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and even infectious diseases including bacterial and viral infection. …”
