Lactobacillus (lak toe ba sil us) is a type of good bacteria also known as probiotics. It is used to limit the growth of potentially bad bacteria in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
Lactobacillus can antagonize pathogenic bacteria infection in the intestine primarily through bacteriocin, organic acids, and hydrogen dioxide; on the other hand, commensal organisms contribute to the colonization and function of lactobacilli via cross-feeding.Lactobacilli can elicit innate and adaptive immune responses in the host via binding to pattern recognition receptors (PRR) expressed on immune cells and many other tissues including the intestinal epithelium.
