Modulatory Effect of Postbiotic Substances (Enterocins-like) on T-Cell-Mediated Immune Response in Trichinella spiralis-Infected Mice

Postbiotic substances produced by beneficial/probiotic strains can modulate host immunity and confer health benefits. This study evaluated immunomodulatory and antiparasitic effects of the postbiotics Enterocin M and Durancin-like, as well as their producing bacteria in mice expe...
