Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates restoration of gut microbiome balance in humans, indicating potential for new probiotic therapies.

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the effects of Phocaeicola vulgatus PMC94 on gut microbial balance and its potential as a probiotic.
Phocaeicola vulgatus PMC94 was isolated and characterized as a Post-NGP candidate.
Ex vivo human gut microbiota cultures were utilized to assess gut microbiome balance.
In vivo mouse experiments were conducted to support findings from ex vivo analyses.
Co-administration of PMC94 alleviated dysbiosis more effectively than conventional probiotics.
PMC94 selectively suppressed Proteobacteria while promoting Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes growth.
Increased production of short-chain fatty acids, immune modulation, and gut barrier enhancement were observed.
