Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856 Prevents Colitis Induced by AIEC Bacteria in the Transgenic Mouse Model Mimicking Crohnʼs Disease

Abstract

S. cerevisiae yeasts reduce colitis induced by AIEC bacteria in CEACAM6-expressing mice. Such a probiotic strategy could be envisaged in a subgroup of patients with CD abnormally expressing CEACAM6 at the ileal mucosa and therefore susceptible to being colonized by AIEC bacteria.
