A Genomics-Based Semirational Approach for Expanding the Postbiotic Potential of Collagen Peptides Using Lactobacillaceae

showed agonistic activities toward G protein-coupled receptor 35 (GPR35). These CPs could repair intestinal epithelium through the GPR35-mediated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) 1/2 signaling pathway, suggesting that probiotic-aided collagen hydrolysates can serve as postbiotics for host-microbe interactions. Therefore, this study provides an effective strategy for the rapid screening of CPs for gut health in the gastrointestinal tract.
