L. gasseri, NR1I3, and E-Cadherin in Colitis
2026-08-10
Qian and colleagues show that Lactobacillus gasseri ATCC33323 protects against DSS-induced colitis in mice by preserving epithelial barrier function through an NR1I3–CDH1/E-cadherin pathway. The study combines probiotic intervention, intestinal E-cadherin perturbation, barrier and inflammatory readouts, microbiota analysis, and in vitro transcriptional experiments to move beyond an association between probiotics and colitis protection.
