The alleviating effects and mechanisms of Enterococcus faecium Kimate-X and Lactobacillus plantarum Kimate-F combination on canine inflammatory bowel disease

These findings suggest that <i>E. faecium</i> Kimate-X and <i>L. plantarum</i> Kimate-F act synergistically to restore gut homeostasis, reduce intestinal inflammation, and enhance host immunity. Their ability to modulate gut microbiota composition, host signaling, and metabolic output underscores their potential as safe and effective probiotic candidates for managing canine IBD.
