Extracellular vesicles from lactic acid bacteria as multifunctional postbiotics: bridging food technology and intestinal wellness.

Lactic acid bacteria are important probiotics widely found in nature and recognized for their health-promoting roles in fermented foods and their probiotic functions in the human gut. In recent years, postbiotics-defined as inanimate metabolites or components of probiotics-have gained increasing attention. Extracellula...

From Postbiotic to Prodrug: Chemical Strategies to Widen the Therapeutic Potential of Butyric Acid.

Postbiotics, particularly Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs), have recently emerged as safe and measurable alternatives to live probiotics. Postbiotics are metabolites produced through the gut microbial fermentation of dietary fibers and primarily comprise acetate, propionate, and butyrate, which together account for appr...

FAs and their metabolites as antibacterial agents: mechanisms, food applications, and translational opportunities.

Antimicrobial resistance and the demand for effective food-preservation strategies have increased interest in fatty acids (FAs) and their derivatives as potential antibacterial agents. FAs can affect bacterial membranes, cellular energetics, biofilm-associated phenotypes, and, in some organisms, specific metabolic path...

Paraprobiotics and postbiotics: from mechanistic evidence to food applications and clinical translation

Interest in non-viable microbial preparations has increased as an alternative to selected technological and safety limitations of live probiotics. Paraprobiotics generally comprise non-viable intact or fragmented microbial cells, whereas the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) d...
