Abstract
Premature delivery, suppurative meningitis, pneumonia in neonates, septicemia, intrauterine infections in pregnant women, and even mortality may all be caused by Group B Streptococcus (GBS). The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advise that all individuals who are pregnant undergo screening for GBS between 35 and 37 weeks of gestation, and those who receive a positive test result should be administered intrauterine antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP). Antibiotics may lead to adverse reactions and are ineffective in preventing GBS, a condition that manifests later in life. Given the rising challenge of antibiotic resistance among bacteria, it is crucial to investigate more efficient and economically viable strategies to prevent infections caused by GBS colonization. GBS is a zoonotic disease that may be spread by food, hence research on its colonization in the intestinal tract is crucial. Intestinal symbiotic bacteria may lower the chance of GBS retrogradely infecting the reproductive system by preventing intestinal pathogens from colonizing and growing via an intestinal colonization resistance mechanism. This approach holds significant promise as a leading strategy for preventing GBS. This article focused on the effects of probiotics derived from intestinal colonization resistance on GBS colonization infection.
