Investigation of new exopolysaccharides produced by strains of donkey milk by Arevik Israyelyan, Tsovinar Balabekyan, Lara Aleksanyan, Inesa Sahakyan, Anna Gasparyan, Flora Тkhruni

“…Results: The antimicrobial activity of the polysaccharide and antimicrobial protein-like fractions of the genus Enterococcus strains depends on its concentration, time of interaction with the test culture, and the species of the pathogenic bacteria. Conclusion: The obtained results were shown that strains isolated from fermented donkey milk that are capable of synthesizing two substances of different nature with high antimicrobial properties during the growth process are promising for further research and application for their use as probiotics and biopreparations in pharmaceuticals. …”

Glycine rich proteins of ticks: more than a cement component by Renata Perotto de Souza, Mariana Vieira Dalla Valentina, Bruna Ferreira Leal, Sílvia Dias Oliveira, Carlos Alexandre Sanchez Ferreira, Ala Tabor

“…Conversely, several GRPs are present in all tick developmental stages, and the expression of many GRP genes is modulated by physiological processes and immune challenges, such as feeding and pathogen infection. Considering that some tick GRPs appear to play essential roles in the tick life cycle, they have been evaluated as immune targets, with a focus on their potential application in vaccine development. …”

Novel anti-inflammatory properties of mannose oligosaccharides in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease via LGALS3 modulation by Yaqi Du, Yan Fan, Xin Li, Fenqin Chen

“…Employing both in vitro and in vivo models, we explored how GA-MOS influences microbial communities, particularly focusing on their capacity to enhance health-associated bacteria and reduce pathogenic species within the gut environment. Our findings reveal that GA-MOS treatment significantly altered the gut microbiota composition, increasing the abundance of anti-inflammatory bacteria while decreasing pro-inflammatory species, thus contributing to a reduction in gut inflammation and an improvement in intestinal barrier function. …”
