<i>In vitro</i> antiviral activity of <i>Lactobacillus casei</i> and <i>Bifidobacterium adolescentis</i> against rotavirus infection monitored by <scp>NSP</scp> 4 protein production

Abstract

A novel anti-rotaviral effect exerted by probiotic metabolites monitored by the NSP4 protein during the RV in vitro infection and the effect on the Ca(2+) release is reported; suggesting a reduction on the impact of the infection by decreasing the damage of the cells preventing the electrolyte loss.
