Effect of Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus on gut mucosa and peripheral blood B lymphocytes.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND AIM:In the rat prostate, beta-adrenoreceptor (beta-AR) stimulation does not alter basal prostatic tone but may inhibit alpha1-AR-mediated, field stimulation-induced or receptor-independent contractile responses. The present study was designed to assess the alteration of basic fibroblast growth factor (bF...
