Probiotic Lactiplantibacillus plantarum subsp. plantarum Dad-13 Alleviates 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzene Sulfonic Acid-Induced Colitis Through Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production and Inflammatory Cytokine Regulation

The development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is closely linked to inflammatory damage and dysbiosis. Recently, probiotics are being increasingly used to improve intestinal health. Probiotic-based therapies can prevent IBD by restoring the balance of gastrointestinal microbiota, reducing gut inflammation, and increasing the concentration of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). The present study aimed to investigate the protective effects of
