Galacto-oligosaccharides as an anti-bacterial and anti-invasive agent in lung infections

Yang Cai et al.

Summary: The emergence of antimicrobial resistance in infections has created a need for new intervention strategies. Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) show potential as an alternative to antibiotics due to their anti-inflammatory and anti-adhesive properties. Mannheimia haemolytica is a major bacteria associated with bovine lung infections, and the study demonstrates that GOS can reduce its viability and enhance the efficacy of antibiotics. GOS also exhibit anti-adhesive and anti-invasive activities in primary bronchial epithelial cells, which can be attributed to their downregulation of toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-kappa B pathway. Furthermore, GOS have been shown to relieve lung infections/inflammation and reduce M. haemolytica positivity in vivo without altering clinical performance. These findings highlight the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of GOS and its potential as a promising agent for preventing infections.

The biofilm life cycle: expanding the conceptual model of biofilm formation

Karin Sauer et al.

Summary: This review introduces a model of bacterial biofilm formation and points out that the current five-step model fails to capture many aspects of biofilm physiology. The authors propose a more inclusive model that can accommodate various scenarios of biofilm formation.

Anticandidal and Antibiofilm Effect of Synbiotics including Probiotics and Inulin-Type Fructans

Ricardo Garcia-Gamboa et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the growth inhibition and antibiofilm activity of short-chain fatty acids and inulin-type fructans produced by Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus and Pediococcus acidilactici against Candida albicans. The results showed significant growth inhibition and antibiofilm formation against a clinically isolated Candida albicans strain.

Prebiotic Combinations Effects on the Colonization of Staphylococcal Skin Strains

Silvia Di Lodovico et al.

Summary: The combination of 1% Xylitol with 1% Galacto-OligoSaccharides shows a significant antibacterial/antibiofilm effect against Staphylococcus aureus, which may help to control the balance of skin microbiota. This combination, along with other prebiotics like Fructo-OligoSaccharides, IsoMalto-Oligosaccharides, and ArabinoGaLactan, could be potential candidates for topical formulations.

Mammary microbial dysbiosis leads to the zoonosis of bovine mastitis: a One-Health perspective

Sudipa Maity et al.

Summary: Bovine mastitis is an emerging bacterial disease that poses threats to animals, public health, and the global economy, with pathogens having the potential for zoonotic transmission. Disease control is challenging due to surveillance system defects, complex interactions between pathogens, potential pathobionts, and commensals, as well as the need to evaluate the effectiveness of management strategies and the One-Health approach.
