Brief Summary:
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial investigates the effects of the probiotic LP-LDL® (Lactobacillus plantarum ECGC 13110402) on lipid metabolism, glycemic control, inflammatory biomarkers, and cognitive function in adults with prediabetes, type 1 diabetes, or type 2 diabetes who also exhibit elevated cholesterol or triglyceride levels.
A total of 210 participants will be enrolled across three parallel sub-studies:
* Type 1 diabetes (n = 76)
* Type 2 diabetes (n = 54)
* Prediabetes (n = 80)
Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive LP-LDL® or matching placebo once daily for 12 weeks, followed by a 4-week washout period. Study assessments include fasting blood tests (lipids, glucose, HbA1c, liver enzymes, inflammatory markers), cognitive testing (ACE-III), blood pressure, anthropometry, and stool measurements (microbiome, bile acids, fecal fat).
Exploratory analyses include bile acid metabolism, microbiome profiling (16S rRNA), and gene expression of cholesterol transporters ABCG5/ABCG8.
The study aims to determine whether LP-LDL® can improve cardiometabolic profiles and cognitive outcomes in these populations, and to clarify the mechanistic pathways underlying metabolic dysfunction, inflammation, and gut-brain communication.
