The present invention belongs to the field of
biomedical technology, and specifically relates to the application of
Lactobacillus murinus driving GABA in the treatment of
cerebral malaria in mice. The present invention found significantly enriched
Lactobacillus murinus and confirmed that
Lactobacillus murinus can produce GABA. Subsequently, in a mouse
cerebral malaria model, the effects of Lactobacillus murinus and GABA on improving and treating mouse
cerebral malaria were evaluated when Lactobacillus murinus and GABA were used alone or in conjunction with
dihydroartemisinin. The results showed that whether used alone or in combination with
dihydroartemisinin, the
bacteria and its
metabolite GABA can effectively improve mouse behavior, immune
pathological damage to various organs, reduce parasitemia, and prolong mouse survival. Compared with the use of drugs alone, it can effectively treat mouse cerebral
malaria. From the perspective of using probiotics to drive their metabolites to assist antimalarial drugs in the treatment of mouse cerebral
malaria, the present invention provides a new solution for the treatment of severe
malaria caused by falciparum malaria, especially human cerebral malaria.
