Abstract
Probiotics have been reported to have the potential effect of alleviating Hyperuricemia (HUA). However, due to the complexity of its mechanisms, the research on probiotics with anti-HUA potential is still limited. In this study, administration of Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001, Bifidobacterium lactis HN019, and Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM exhibited UA-reducing capacity, as well as lowering creatinine and urease levels and xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity. They effectively contribute to a decrease in pro-inflammatory (IL-1β and TNF-α) factors while regulating the expression of transporters, particularly the ATP-binding cassette subfamily G2 (ABCG2). These strains also powerfully restore the gut microbiota, increasing the abundance of the Lactobacillaceae, thus playing a crucial role in HUA reduction by being intensely involved in the expression of ABCG2 transporter. These findings provide a pivotal theoretical basis for elucidating the potential probiotics as dietary supplements to relieve HUA via intestinal remediation.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Foods continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal will keep its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.
The Journal of Functional Foods aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients.
The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food technology, nutrition and health welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal will cover the fields of plant bioactives; dietary fibre, probiotics; functional lipids; bioactive peptides; vitamins, minerals and botanicals and other dietary supplements. Nutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and nutritional needs in pathological subjects.
