Abstract
Complex inter-bacterial interactions largely influence the structure and function of the gut microbial community. Though several host-associated phenomena have often been shown to be involved in the stability, structure, and function of the gut microbial community, the implication of contact-dependent and contact-independent inter-bacterial interactions has been overlooked. Such interactions are tightly governed at multiple layers through several extracellular organelles, including contact-dependent inhibition (CDI), nanotubes, type VI secretion system (T6SS), and membrane vesicles (MVs). Recent advancements in molecular techniques have revealed that such extracellular organelles function beyond exhibiting competitive behavior and are also involved in manifesting cooperative behaviors. Cooperation between bacteria occurs through the sharing of several beneficial molecules including nucleic acids, proteins, metabolites, and nutrients among the members of the community, while competition occurs by means of multiple toxins. Intrinsic coordination between contact-dependent and contact-independent mechanisms collectively provides a fitness advantage and increased colonization resistance to the gut microbiota, where molecular trafficking plays a key role. This review is intended to provide a comprehensive view of the salient features of the different bacterial interactions and to highlight how microbiota deploy multifaceted organelles, for exerting both cooperative and competitive behaviors. We discuss the current knowledge of bacterial molecular trafficking and its impact on shaping the gut microbial community.

First evaluation of a symbiotic food supplement in an allergen exposure chamber in birch pollen allergic patients. World Allergy Organ J 2020; 14:100494. [PMID: 33376575 PMCID: PMC7753943 DOI: 10.1016/j.waojou.2020.100494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Revised: 10/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis is the most common immune disease worldwide, but still largely underestimated, underdiagnosed, and undertreated. Dysbiosis and reduced microbial diversity is linked to the development of allergies, and the immunomodulatory effects of pro- and prebiotics might be used to counteract microbiome dysbiosis in allergy. Adequate symbiotic (multi-strain pro-, plus prebiotic) supplementation can be suggested as a complementary approach in the management of allergic rhinitis. Objective The effects of the daily intake of a symbiotic food supplement (combination of Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM and Bifidobacterium lactis BL-04 with Fructo-Oligosaccharides) for 4 months in birch pollen allergic rhinoconjunctivitis patients were investigated for the first time in an allergen exposure chamber (AEC) allowing standardised, reproducible pollen exposure before and after intake. Methods Eligible patients were exposed to birch pollen (8000 pollen/m³ for 120 min) at the GA2LEN AEC, at baseline (V1) and final visit (V3) outside the season. The Total Symptom Score (TSS) and the scores for nose, eye, bronchial system, and others were evaluated every 10 min during exposure. Other secondary endpoints were the changes in well-being, Peak Nasal Inspiratory Flow (PNIF), lung function parameters, and safety. Co-primary endpoints were differences in Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) and TSS after 120 min of exposure between both visits. Temporal evolution of symptom scores were analysed in an exploratory way using linear mixed effects models. Results 27 patients (mean age 45 years, 15% male) completed the study. Both co-primary endpoints showed significant improvement after intake of the symbiotic. Median TNSS and TSS were decreased 50% and 80% at 120 min (adjusted p-value = 0.025 and p < 0.01 respectively). All four symptom scores and the personal well-being, improved to a clinically relevant extent over time, visible by a weaker increase in symptoms during 120 min of the final birch pollen exposure. No relevant differences were observed for PNIF, PEF, and spirometry. There were no airway obstructions or lung restrictions before and after both exposures. Late phase reactions after exposure were reduced after V3, documenting a better birch pollen tolerability of the patients. The safety and tolerability profile of the symbiotic food supplement was excellent, no adverse events (AEs) were observed. Conclusions This first evaluation of a symbiotic food supplement in an AEC in rhinoconjunctivitis patients with or without asthma induced by birch pollen revealed a significant beneficial effect, harnessing significant improvements of symptoms and well-being while maintaining an excellent safety and tolerability profile.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and is characterized by variable clinical presentation that ranges from asymptomatic to fatal multi-organ damage. The site of entry and the response of the host to the infection affect the outcomes. The role of the upper airways and the nasal barrier in the prevention of infection is increasingly being recognized. Besides the epithelial lining and the local immune system, the upper airways harbor a community of microorganisms, or microbiota, that takes an active part in mucosal homeostasis and in resistance to infection. However, the role of the upper airway microbiota in COVID-19 is not yet completely understood and likely goes beyond protection from viral entry to include the regulation of the immune response to the infection. Herein, we discuss the hypothesis that restoring endogenous barriers and anti-inflammatory pathways that are defective in COVID-19 patients might represent a valid strategy to reduce infectivity and ameliorate clinical symptomatology.

Abstract
Potential probiotic or immunobiotic effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from the milk of the South American camelid llama (Lama glama) have not been reported in published studies. The aim of the present work was to isolate beneficial LAB from llama milk that can be used as potential probiotics active against bacterial pathogens. LAB strains were isolated from llama milk samples. In vitro functional characterization of the strains was performed by evaluating the resistance against gastrointestinal conditions and inhibition of the pathogen growth. Additionally, the adhesive and immunomodulatory properties of the strains were assessed. The functional studies were complemented with a comparative genomic evaluation and in vivo studies in mice. Ligilactobacillus salivarius TUCO-L2 showed enhanced probiotic/immunobiotic potential compared to that of other tested strains. The TUCO-L2 strain was resistant to pH and high bile salt concentrations and demonstrated antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative intestinal pathogens and adhesion to mucins and epithelial cells. L. salivarius TUCO-L2 modulated the innate immune response triggered by Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 activation in intestinal epithelial cells. This effect involved differential regulation of the expression of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines mediated by the modulation of the negative regulators of the TLR signaling pathway. Moreover, the TUCO-L2 strain enhanced the resistance of mice to Salmonella infection. This is the first report on the isolation and characterization of a potential probiotic/immunobiotic strain from llama milk. The in vitro, in vivo, and in silico investigation performed in this study reveals several research directions that are needed to characterize the TUCO-L2 strain in detail to position this strain as a probiotic or immunobiotic that can be used against infections in humans or animals, including llama.

Abstract
The upper respiratory tract (URT) is the main entrance point for many viral and bacterial pathogens, and URT infections are among the most common infections in the world. Recent evidences by our own group and others imply the importance of lactobacilli as gatekeepers of a healthy URT. However, the benefits of putting health-promoting microbes or potential probiotics, such as these URT lactobacilli, in function of URT disease control and prevention is underestimated, among others because of the absence of adequate formulation modalities. Therefore, this study entails important aspects in probiotic nasal spray development with a novel URT-derived probiotic strain by spray drying. We report quantitative and qualitative analysis of several spray-dried formulations, i.e. powders for reconstitution, based on disaccharide or sugar alcohol combinations with a polymer, including their long-term stability. Four formulations with the highest survival of >109 (Colony Forming Units) CFU/g after 28 weeks were further examined upon reconstitution which confirmed sufficiency of one bottle/dosage form during 7 days and rheological properties of shear-thinning. Tests also demonstrated maintained viability and cell morphology overall upon spraying through a nasal spray bottle in all 4 formulations. Lastly, application suitability in terms of high adherence to Calu-3 cells and antimicrobial activity against common URT pathogens was demonstrated and was not impacted neither by powder production process nor by spraying of reconstituted powder through a nasal spray device.

Abstract
In this article, Ligilactobacillus salivarius FFIG strains, isolated from the intestinal tract of wakame-fed pigs, are characterized according to their potential probiotic properties. Strains were evaluated by studying their interaction with porcine intestinal epithelial (PIE) cells in terms of their ability to regulate toll-like receptor (TLR)-3- or TLR4-mediated innate immune responses, as well as by assessing their adhesion capabilities to porcine epithelial cells and mucins. These functional studies were complemented with comparative genomic evaluations using the complete genome sequences of porcine L. salivarius strains selected from subgroups that demonstrated different “immune” and “adhesion” phenotypes. We found that their immunomodulatory and adhesion capabilities are a strain-dependent characteristic. Our analysis indicated that the differential immunomodulatory and adhesive activities of FFIG strains would be dependent on the combination of several surface structures acting simultaneously, which include peptidoglycan, exopolysaccharides, lipoteichoic acid, and adhesins. Of note, our results indicate that there is no correlation between the immunomodulatory capacity of the strains with their adhesion ability to mucins and epithelial cells. Therefore, in the selection of strains destined to colonize the intestinal mucosa and modulate the immunity of the host, both properties must be adequately evaluated. Interestingly, we showed that L. salivarius FFIG58 functionally modulated the innate immune responses triggered by TLR3 and TLR4 activation in PIE cells and efficiently adhered to these cells. Moreover, the FFIG58 strain was capable of reducing rotavirus replication in PIE cells. Therefore, L. salivarius FFIG58 is a good candidate for further in vivo studying the protective effect of lactobacilli against intestinal infections in the porcine host. We also reported and analyzed, for the first time, the complete genome of several L. salivarius strains that were isolated from the intestine of pigs after the selective pressure of feeding the animals with wakame. Further genomic analysis could be of value to reveal the metabolic characteristics and potential of the FFIG strains in general and of the FFIG58 strain, in particular, relating to wakame by-products assimilation.

Abstract
Live biotherapeutic products (LBP) are emerging as alternative treatment strategies for chronic rhinosinusitis. The selection of interesting candidate LBPs often involves model systems that do not include the polymicrobial background (i.e. the host microbiota) in which they will be introduced. Here, we performed a screening in a simplified model system of upper respiratory epithelium to assess the effect of nasal microbiota composition on the ability to attach and grow of a potential LBP, Lacticaseibacillus casei AMBR2, in this polymicrobial background. After selecting the most permissive and least permissive donor, L. casei AMBR2 colonisation in their respective polymicrobial backgrounds was assessed in more physiologically relevant model systems. We examined cytotoxicity, epithelial barrier function, and cytokine secretion, as well as bacterial cell density and phenotypic diversity in differentiated airway epithelium based models, with or without macrophage-like cells. L. casei AMBR2 could colonize in the presence of both selected donor microbiota and increased epithelial barrier resistance in presence of donor-derived nasal bacteria, as well as anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion in the presence of macrophage-like cells. This study highlights the potential of L. casei AMBR2 as LBP and the necessity to employ physiologically relevant model systems to investigate host–microbe interaction in LBP research.
