The Lepidoptera Galleria mellonella 'in vivo' model: a preliminary pilot study on oral administration of Lactobacillus plantarum (now Lactiplantibacillus plantarum)

摘要

This work aims to assess the in vitro adhesion of two type strains of Lactobacillus plantarum (ATCC 14917 and ATCC BAA-793) (now Lactiplantibacillus plantarum). The experiments were conducted both in vitro on colon cells lines (Caco-2 and HT-29) and in vivo by adopting Galleria mellonella, a well-known alternative preclinical model.
