Condition: Probiotics · Cancer, Therapy-Related · Sponsor: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital
Probiotics are a group of viable microorganisms including bacteria and yeasts that if consumed in sufficient amounts, may afford health benefits to the host. The major advantage of probiotic administration is its ability to maintain gut microbial homeostasis, reduce pathogenic microorganisms in the GI tract, and restores homeostasis of intestinal microorganisms. Moreover, by modulating microbiota and immune responses, decreasing bacterial translocation, promoting the function of the gut barrier, inducing anti- inflammatory properties, triggering anti-pathogenic activity, and decreasing tumor development and metastasis, probiotics might contribute to the prevention and treatment of GI cancers and lung cancer. Considering the potential roles of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the initiation of colorectal and gastric cancers, the possible properties of probiotics against GI neoplasm in humans have been investigated in relation to their suppressive effects on H. pylori. The gut microbiota also has proved to in the response and resistance to immunotherapy. By triggering immune activity, probiotics, as functional dietary supplements, may mitigate neoplastic predisposition and development of GI cancers. Clostridium butyricum is a spore-forming bacillus named for its capacity to produce high amounts of butyric acid and is found in soil. Clostridium butyricum MIYAIRI 588 strain (MIYA-BM) is widely used as probiotic therapy to improve symptoms related to dysbiosis such as constipati…
