P79 | AN INNOVATIVE FUNCTIONAL COOKIE MODULATES THE MUCOSA AND MYENTERIC PLEXUS IN THE GUT OF 3xTg-AD MOUSE MODEL OF ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE

“…It has been proposed that gut dysbiosis, dysfunction of the intestinal epithelial barrier, and vascular deposition of amyloid-beta (Aβ) in the gut may precede the cerebral deposition of Aβ in a transgenic mouse model of AD.1 A hypocaloric cookie with prebiotic-rich ingredients (red lentils) coated with a multi-strain probiotic (SLAB51®) enriched chocolate2 was tested on 3xTg-AD mice, a murine model of AD, to evaluate the protective effects on the mucosa and ENS of the ileum and colon. 8-week-old 3xTg-AD gender-balanced mice were divided into five groups and organized for the supplementation of functional cookies. …”
