The paper of Lactobacillus plantarum HY7715 improving degeneration of muscle function and ameliorating sarcopenia has been published in 'International Journal of Molecular Sciences'.
HY7715 is isolated from kimchi, and also known to overproduce vitamin B2 in human body. The recent study shows that L. plantarum HY7715 increases physical performance and skeletal muscle mass in 80-week-old aged Balb/c male mice. Therefore, it has promise as a functional probiotic supplement to improve the degeneration of muscle function that is associated with aging.
