A recent report from researchers at the Medical University of Lodz in Poland discusses the role of postbiotics in the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. The researchers highlight the cellular mechanisms involved in the occurrence of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, including proteinopathy, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and impaired autophagy. They also explore the potential of postbiotics, which are metabolites derived from probiotic bacteria, in addressing these dysfunctions. The review concludes by discussing the implementation of postbiotics in the prophylaxis and therapy of neurodegenerative diseases. [Extracted from the article] |
