Lactobacillus murinus alleviate intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury through promoting the release of interleukin-10 from M2 macrophages via Toll-like receptor 2 signaling

The gut microbiome is involved in the postoperative outcome of intestinal I/R. Lactobacillus murinus alleviates mice intestinal I/R injury through macrophages, and promoting the release of IL-10 from macrophages through TLR2 may be a potential mechanism for L. murinus to reduce intestinal I/R injury. This study revealed a novel mechanism of intestinal I/R injury and a new therapeutic strategy for clinical practice. Video Abstract.
