Lactobacillus paracasei ameliorates cognitive impairment in high-fat induced obese mice via insulin signaling and neuroinflammation pathways

Long-term consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) can cause glucose and lipid metabolism disorders, damage the brain and nervous system and result in cognitive impairment. The objective of this study was to investigate the preventative effects of Lactobacillus paracasei (Jlus66, a probiotic extracted from cheese in Northeast China) on cognitive impairment associated with HFD. The water maze was used to compare memory changes in mice fed HFD with or...
