Zusammenfassung:Methods and compositions for preventing or treating incontinence, overactive bladder, or menstrual cramping in a subject are described. A method can include providing a composition. The composition can include a modification agent. The modification agent can include a strain of Lactobacillus or a ferment or a metabolite thereof. The modification agent can provide neuromodulation activity by up-regulating at least one of maoA enzymes, maoB enzymes, and grin-1 genes. The method can also include administering the composition to the subject to prevent or treat incontinence, overactive bladder, or menstrual cramping. In some aspects, the modification agent can decrease a level of extracellular ATP in a target environment.
