“…Probiotics may offer health benefits during vaginosis. This was reported by Hattiholi et al (2021). From the report of Upadhaya et al (2021), it can be seen that probiotics are useful in the prevention and cure of cancer through microbiota and AMPs, following the like immune modulation, condensed bacterial translocation, enhanced gut barrier function, anti-inflammatory, anti-pathogenic activity, reduced tumour formation, reduced metastasis, and others.…”

Like the internal digestive system, the largest organ of our body, the skin, maintains a healthy balance with the natural inhabitants of it. Skin act as a host for several microorganisms (about one million per square centimetre) including different types of bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This microbiome takes active role in the fighting with infection, providing protection against environmental damage, regulation of pH and in keeping the skin hydrated and healthy. Probiotics are live and healthy microorganisms that can be consumed directly to restore the pH levels and the balance in the guts. They act like good bacteria and are important to keep away the “bad” bacteria from multiplying in different organ of human body. They can also be applied on the skin to restore the skin's ecosystem, pH and immunity. Again, long term exposure to solar radiation may induce UV damaged skin cancer. The utilization of probiotic bacteria in skin cancer research may help in development of new skin cancer prevention and treatment options.

“…For all these reasons, a microbiota composition particularly enriched in Lactobacillus plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of eubiosis [ 11 ]. When an unbalanced situation occurs, their presence is reduced, and the consequent increase in pH causes overgrowth of undesirable or pathogenic microorganisms [ 12 ].…”

The urogenital microbiota is dominated by Lactobacillus that, together with Bifidobacterium, creates a physiological barrier counteracting pathogen infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-strain probiotic formulation (Lactiplantibacillus plantarum PBS067, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus LRH020, and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BL050) to inhibit adhesion and growth of urogenital pathogens. The antimicrobial and antiadhesive properties of the probiotic strains and their mixture were evaluated on human vaginal epithelium infected with Candida glabrata, Neisseria gonorrheae, Trichomonas vaginalis, and Escherichia coli-infected human bladder epithelium. The epithelial tissue permeability and integrity were assessed by transepithelial/transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER). Co-aggregation between probiotics and vaginal pathogens was also investigated to elucidate a possible mechanism of action. The multi-strain formulation showed a full inhibition of T. vaginalis, and a reduction in C. glabrata and N. gonorrheae growth. A relevant antimicrobial activity was observed for each single strain against E. coli. TEER results demonstrated that none of the strains have negatively impaired the integrity of the 3D tissues. All the probiotics and their mixture were able to form aggregates with the tested pathogens. The study demonstrated that the three strains and their mixture are effective to prevent urogenital infections.
