| Research Abstract |
To investigate the contribution of commensal bacteria to the recovery of damaged skeletal muscle. It was examined whether probiotics administration may facilitate recovery of skeletal muscle tissue from damage in older animals in which muscle regeneration is compromised. These results suggest that components of commensal bacterial such as LPS favor the recovery of skeletal muscle from muscle damage. Moreover, probiotics favor the recovery of skeletal muscle from muscle damage in older adult mouse.
