Protective Effects of Lactobacillus‐Derived Probiotics and Postbiotics on Renal and Reproductive Function in Escherichia coli–Infected Rats

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
A Lactobacillus‐derived probiotic and postbiotic mixture alleviates E. coli–induced renal and reproductive dysfunction by modulating oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and apoptosis, leading to improved tissue integrity and sperm quality. ABSTRACT Background Escherichia coli infections of the genitourinary tract are a major cause of renal and ...
