Four key strains illustrate this critical differentiation: (1) L. acidophilus NCFM possesses a complete exopolysaccharide biosynthesis locus and exhibits moderate hydrophobicity, making it particularly suitable for epithelial barrier studies and immunomodulation research. Its genomic architecture enables robust interaction with intestinal ...
Background of Caco-2 Cells Caco-2 cells are derived from human colorectal carcinoma and possess characteristics that mimic intestinal epithelial cells. When cultured, these cells form a monolayer that exhibits tight junctions and microvilli, allowing researchers to study the transport and permeability of substances across a cellular barrier. The use of Caco-2 ...
