Abstract

The ageing process impacts skin health by reducing cell turnover and altering skin microbiota, which plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and protection against pathogens. Microbiota-derived metabolites, including postbiotics generated through nutrient fermentation, may contribute to these protective functions. In this context, topical application of postbiotics represents a promising strategy to mitigate visible signs of skin ageing. We investigated the effects of PB-SKF, a postbiotic derived from the fermentation of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) by Lacticaseibacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220

Research summary

The paper claims that a postbiotic derived from Lacticaseibacillus paracasei can improve skin health by mitigating signs of aging. The research addresses a potential intervention for aging-related skin damage, which aligns with longevity research.
