Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic demyelination disease of the central nervous system (CNS). The gut-brain axis involves communication between the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems. Probiotics can positively impact immune and inflammatory responses by regulating gut microbiota. A total of 40 MS patients (average age of 34.38 ± 6.65) were examined to determine the effect of the Saccharomyces boulardii supplement for four months compared to a placebo. The results showed that the Saccharomyces boulardii significantly decreased the inflammatory marker high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) compared to the placebo (P < 0.001). The serum antioxidant capacity (TAC) also increased significantly in the probiotic group compared to the placebo (p = 0.004). Both the probiotic and placebo groups showed a reduction in the oxidative stress indicator malondialdehyde (MDA), but there was no significant difference between the two groups. Pain intensity (measured by Visual Analogue Scale) and fatigue severity (measured by Fatigue Severity Scale) significantly decreased in the probiotic group compared to the placebo (p = 0.004 and p = 0.01, respectively). The probiotic group experienced significant improvement in some quality of life scales (measured by 36-Item Short Form Survey) and somatic and social dysfunction subscale of General Health Questionnaire scores compared to the placebo group (p = 0.01). The study suggests that the Saccharomyces boulardii probiotic supplement may benefit inflammatory markers, oxidative stress indicators, pain, fatigue, and quality of life in MS patients.
多发性硬化症(MS)是一种中枢神经系统(CNS)的慢性脱髓鞘疾病。肠道-大脑轴涉及神经系统、内分泌系统和免疫系统之间的通讯。益生菌可以通过调节肠道菌群来对免疫和炎症反应产生积极影响。共检查了 40 名 MS 患者(平均年龄 34.38±6.65),以确定与安慰剂相比,补充酿酒酵母 boulardii 四个月的效果。结果表明,与安慰剂相比,酿酒酵母 boulardii 显著降低了炎症标志物高敏 C 反应蛋白(hs-CRP)(P<0.001)。与安慰剂相比,益生菌组的血清抗氧化能力(TAC)也显著增加(p=0.004)。益生菌组和安慰剂组的氧化应激标志物丙二醛(MDA)均有所减少,但两组之间无显著差异。与安慰剂相比,益生菌组的疼痛强度(通过视觉模拟量表测量)和疲劳严重程度(通过疲劳严重程度量表测量)显著降低(p=0.004 和 p=0.01)。与安慰剂组相比,益生菌组在一些生活质量量表(通过 36 项简短健康调查测量)和一般健康问卷的躯体和社会功能障碍子量表评分方面有显著改善(p=0.01)。研究表明,酿酒酵母 boulardii 益生菌补充剂可能有益于 MS 患者的炎症标志物、氧化应激指标、疼痛、疲劳和生活质量。
