AB  - We investigated the potential probiotic properties of indigenous lactic
   acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from Serbian homemade cheese. Seventeen LAB
   strains were isolated and characterised using standard protocols. One of
   the strains showed several probiotic properties: survival at low pH and
   in bile salts solution, antimicrobial activity, susceptibility to
   antibiotics and adhesion to hexodecane. DNA analysis identified the
   isolate as Lactobacillus casei, hereafter named Lactobacillus casei 5s.
   The lipid lowering effect of Lactobacillus casei 5s was evaluated in
   vivo using a hyperlipidemic rat model. Orally administered Lactobacillus
   casei 5s significantly decreased the elevated total serum cholesterol
   and triglycerides, and attenuated macro vesicular steatosis in the
   liver. Moreover, Lactobacillus casei 5s improved the intestinal
   microbial balance in favour of lactobacilli, while decreasing the number
   of Escherichia coli cells. The bacteria were re-isolated and identified
   from the surface of the intestinal mucosa and from the faecal samples of
   treated animals, indicating adhesiveness and colonisation ability. The
   results of an acute oral toxicity study in mice and the absence of
   translocation to other organs demonstrated the safety of the strain. In
   conclusion, Lactobacillus casei 5s demonstrated promising probiotic
   potential and might be a good candidate for more detailed
   investigations.

AB  - The effects of tiazofurin (TR; 2-β-D-ribofuranosylthiazole-4-carboxamide), a purine nucleoside analogue on basal and amphetamine (AMPH)-induced locomotor and stereotypic activity of adult Wistar rat males were studied. The animals were injected with low (3.75, 7.5, and 15 mg/kg ip) and high (62.5, 125, and 250 mg/kg ip) TR doses. Neither low nor high TR doses influenced basal locomotor and stereotypic activity in comparison with the corresponding controls treated with saline only. However, pretreatment with TR at any dose applied, except for the lowest one, significantly decreased AMPH-induced (1.5 mg/kg ip) locomotor activity, while AMPH-induced stereotypic activity was inhibited with the two highest TR doses. In addition, TR was detected in the brain by HPLC already 15 min after the injection (125 mg/kg ip) to reach a maximum 2 h after the administration and was detectable in this tissue during the next 4 h. Our results indicate that TR modifies central regulation of the motor activity, possibly by influencing dopaminergic (DA-ergic) transmission.
