Figure 1. Figure 2. Adhesive properties and mechanism of action of LP299v probiotic strain [28, 30, 31]. Some mechanisms of probiotic action might be widespread; others frequently observed, yet others may be rare and characteristic for only a few strains of a given species. Evidence is mounting. Major probiotic mechanisms of action include enhancement of various elements of the epithelial barrier, increased adhesion to intestinal mucosa, concomitant inhibition of pathogen adhesion, competitive exclusion of pathogenic microorganisms, production of anti-microorganism substances, and modulation of the immune and neural systems. The main mechanisms of action of S. boulardii include inhibition of activities of bacterial pathogenic products, trophic effects on the intestinal mucosa, as well as modification of host signalling pathways involved in inflammatory and non-inflammatory intestinal diseases. The mechanism involved in anti-mutagenic activities is the ability of bifidobacteria to bind to the mutagens of microbial cells
