Ameliorative effects of probiotic Limosilactobacillus fermentum and Enterococcus lactis isolated from cameroonian traditionally processed milk and palm wine against chronic constriction injury induced neuropathic pain in mice

Fermented milk and palm wine are regularly used by several ethnic groups in Cameroon in traditional treatment rituals for infections, inflammatory, cardiovascular disorders, and even metabolic diseases such as diabetes, hypercholesterolemia etc. Reports from many studies have demonstrated that fermented milk and palm wine are potential sources of probiotic bacteria. However, the capacity of probiotics isolated from these natural sources to alleviate neuropathic pain has not been experimentally tested.
