Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, The Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma, 2023
Treatment for preventing the progression of osteoarthritis by modifying the gut microbiome. The method involves identifying a patient with osteoarthritis whose gut microbiome has a decreased presence of certain probiotic bacteria like Actinobacteria and Bacilli, compared to a normal gut flora. The patient is then provided a composition containing those probiotic bacteria in an amount effective to prevent or reduce progression of osteoarthritis. This can be done by fecal transplant, probiotics, or custom bacteria.

VF BIOSCIENCE, 2023
Lactic acid bacteria strains that reduce milk pH to facilitate calcium absorption and produce peptides that inhibit ACE and promote calcium uptake. The strains are Lactobacillus helveticus VF45A and VFH049. The peptides are derived from β-casein and can be used as drugs to treat calcium deficiency and related conditions like osteoporosis, hypertension, and hypoparathyroidism. The strains and peptides can be used as probiotics, in fermented foods, or in supplements.
SOFAR S.P.A., 2023
Strains of Lactobacillus paracasei bacteria that can be used to treat vitamin D deficiency. The strains facilitate the absorption of vitamin D, particularly vitamin D3, from the intestines into the bloodstream, increasing serum levels. Administering these strains along with vitamin D supplements can help improve vitamin D levels in people with deficiencies. The strains include Lactobacillus paracasei DG and LPC-S01.
WUHAN KANGFUDE BIOTECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., 2023
Recombinant expression of a highly stable and effective oxalate-degrading enzyme, oxalate decarboxylase (OxDC), from fungi in filamentous fungal hosts. The fungal expression system allows efficient expression and secretion of functional OxDC with proper post-translational modifications like glycosylation. This enables large-scale commercial production of recombinant OxDC for medical and food applications like degrading dietary oxalate to prevent oxalate-related diseases.
SOLETANCHE FREYSSINET, 2023
Biological method for obtaining a self-regenerating cement-like material with properties similar to limestone or calcium carbonate. It involves using a living organism (such as a plant, bacteria, fungi, etc.) that can synthesize minerals like limestone when provided the necessary conditions. The method includes obtaining a biological base material containing minerals synthesized by a living organism, then deactivating the base to obtain the self-regenerating mineral substance. The base is activated by providing a symbiotic combination of a living structure (e.g. plant) and a lactic acid microorganism that can secrete lactic acid. The microorganism promotes mineral synthesis by the living structure. The self-regenerating mineral substance can be used in construction materials, coatings, etc.
VF BIOSCIENCE, 2023
Novel strain of Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from Mongolian dzomo milk yogurt that can enhance intestinal absorption of calcium. The strain has probiotic properties and can adhere to intestinal cells, survive gastrointestinal digestion, and stimulate calcium transport and absorption. It expresses genes involved in calcium and vitamin D metabolism. The strain can be used as a drug or food supplement to treat conditions linked to low calcium absorption like osteoporosis, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and cancer.
Research Development Foundation, 2023
Compositions and methods for treating bone diseases, such as osteoporosis, by administering warm microbiota to a subject's gastrointestinal system. The warm microbiota includes specific ratios of bacteria including Clostridiales, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacteriaceae, and/or Parabacteroides. It can be obtained from healthy donors and be administered via probiotics or pharmaceuticals. The warm microbiota can also be used to prevent bone disorders.
.GENMONT BIOTECH INC, 2023
A composition including a specific strain of Lactobacillus plantarum, GMNL-662, for promoting bone regrowth. The composition can be used as a pharmaceutical, nutritional supplement, health food, etc., to stimulate expression of osteogenic genes, inhibit osteoclast genes, and promote osteogenesis-related cytokines to slow bone loss and promote bone regrowth.
CHAMBIOCO., LTD., 2022
Using a postbiotic extract to alleviate arthritis. The postbiotic extract is prepared by providing materials with different isoelectric points, such as a whey protein and dextrin. The materials are blended and processed to create a postbiotic extract containing bioactive compounds. Administering this postbiotic extract to subjects in need of arthritis relief provides an effective method to reduce arthritis symptoms.
Societe des Produits Nestle S.A., 2022
A composition containing oleuropein from olive leaves and probiotics with enzymes that convert oleuropein into beneficial metabolites like hydroxytyrosol. The composition aims to improve bone and cartilage health, prevent mobility loss, treat synovitis and potentiate effects of oleuropein. Oleuropein has benefits for bone and joint health. The probiotics with β-glycosidase and esterase enzymes convert oleuropein into more bioavailable and effective forms.
Sichuan Agricultural University, 2022
A piglet feed that improves piglet growth and reduces phosphorus excretion to reduce environmental pollution. The feed is made using a bacterial enzyme synergistic fermentation process that increases feed nutrient digestibility and phosphorus utilization. The process involves fermenting the feed with specific bacteria strains and fungal enzymes to break down anti-nutrients in the feed like phytic acid. This improves the availability of phosphorus and other nutrients for the piglets.
University of Rochester, 2022
Compositions and methods for mitigating secondary complications of obesity and diabetes on osteoarthritis, bone fracture healing, and immune function. The compositions include oligofructose and Bifidobacterium spp microbes. Oligofructose supplementation increases gut Bifidobacterium populations, which reduces joint inflammation, improves fracture repair, and enhances immune response, countering the negative effects of obesity and diabetes on these conditions.
