Abstract
Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli (MDR-E. coli) is a global health concern. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are important probiotics that have beneficial effects on health, and in recent years, their influences in preventing foodborne pathogens-induced colitis have attracted much attention. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the oral administration of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum NWAFU-BIO-BS29 as an emerging approach to alleviate MDR-E. coli-induced colitis in BALB/c mice model. To illustrate the mode of action of NWAFU-BIO-BS29 interventions with the gut microbiota and immune responses, the changes on the colonic mucosal barrier, regulatory of the gene expressions of inflammatory cytokines, re-modulating the intestinal microflora, and changes in physiological parameters were studied. The results indicated that daily supplementation of 200 µL fresh bacteria for 7 days had ameliorated the associated colitis and partially prevented the infection. The modes of action by ameliorating the inflammatory response, which destructed villous and then affected the intestinal barrier integrity, reducing the secretion of interleukins (6 and β) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) in serum by 87.88-89.93%, 30.73-35.98%, and 19.14-22.32%, respectively, enhancing the expressions of some epithelial integrity-related proteins in the mouse mucous layer of mucins 2 and 3, Claudin-1, and Occludin by 130.00-661.85%, 27.64-57.35%, 75.52-162.51%, and 139.36-177.73%, respectively, and 56.09-73.58% for toll-like receptor (TLR4) in colon tissues. Notably, the mouse gut microbiota analysis showed an increase in the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria, including Lactobacillus, Bacteriodales bacterium, Candidatus Saccharimonas, Enterorhabdus, and Bacilli. Furthermore, the probiotic promoted the proliferation of epithelia and goblet cells by increasing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) levels by 19.23-31.39%. In conclusion, L. plantarum NWAFU-BIO-BS29 has potential applications and can be considered a safe dietary supplement to ameliorate the colitis inflammation symptoms of MDR-E. coli infection.

Bifidobacterium longum K5 Prevents Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 Infection in Mice through the Modulation of the Gut Microbiota. Nutrients 2024; 16:1164. [PMID: 38674854 PMCID: PMC11053520 DOI: 10.3390/nu16081164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) serotype O157:H7 is a commonly encountered foodborne pathogen that can cause hemorrhagic enteritis and lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in severe cases. Bifidobacterium is a beneficial bacterium that naturally exists in the human gut and plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy balance in the gut microbiota. This study investigated the protective effects of B. longum K5 in a mouse model of EHEC O157:H7 infection. The results indicated that pretreatment with B. longum K5 mitigated the clinical symptoms of EHEC O157:H7 infection and attenuated the increase in myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in the colon of the mice. In comparison to the model group, elevated serum D-lactic acid concentrations and diamine oxidase (DAO) levels were prevented in the K5-EHEC group of mice. The reduced mRNA expression of tight junction proteins (ZO-1, Occludin, and Claudin-1) and mucin MUC2, as well as the elevated expression of virulence factors Stx1A and Stx2A, was alleviated in the colon of both the K5-PBS and K5-EHEC groups. Additionally, the increase in the inflammatory cytokine levels of TNF-α and IL-1β was inhibited and the production of IL-4 and IL-10 was promoted in the K5-EHEC group compared with the model group. B. longum K5 significantly prevented the reduction in the abundance and diversity of mouse gut microorganisms induced by EHEC O157:H7 infection, including blocking the decrease in the relative abundance of Roseburia, Lactobacillus, and Oscillibacter. Meanwhile, the intervention with B. longum K5 promoted the production of acetic acid and butyric acid in the gut. This study provides insights into the use of B. longum K5 for developing probiotic formulations to prevent intestinal diseases caused by pathogenic bacterial infections.

Abstract
SCOPE Urolithin A (UA), a gut-microbiota-derived metabolite of ellagic acid, presents various benefits to intestinal microecology. The presence of "gut-muscle axis" regulating the onset and progression of exercise-related physical frailty and sarcopenia has been recently hypothesized. This study aims to explore the underlying mechanism of gut-muscle axis by which UA enhances muscle strength and fatigue resistance of sleep-deprived (SD) mice. METHODS AND RESULTS UA is gavaged to C57BL/6 mice (50 mg kg-1 bw) before 48-h SD. The results indicate that pretreatment of UA significantly enhances motor ability and energy metabolism. The inflammation is suppressed, and intestinal permeability is improved after prophylactic treatment with UA. The decreased level of serum lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is concomitant with augmentation of the intestinal tight junction proteins. 16s rRNA analysis of colonic contents reveals that UA significantly reduces the abundance of Clostridia_UCG-014 and Candidatus_Saccharimonas, and upregulates Lactobacillus and Muribaculaceae. UA probably influences on gut microbial functions via several energy metabolism pathways, such as carbon metabolism, phosphotransferase system (PTS), and ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters. CONCLUSIONS The dietary intervention of UA helps to create a systemic protection, a bidirectional communication connecting the gut microbiota with muscle system, able to alleviate SD-induced mobility impairment and gut dysbiosis.

Abstract
The rapid spread of multidrug-resistant pathogens with the low efficacy of common antibiotics for humans and animals in its clinical therapeutics are a global health concern. Therefore, there is a need to develop new treatment strategies to control them clinically. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of Plantaricin Bio-LP1 bacteriocin produced from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum NWAFU-BIO-BS29 to alleviate the inflammation caused by multidrug-resistance Escherichia Coli (MDR-E. coli) infection in BALB/c mice-model. The focus was given on aspects linked to the mechanism of the immune response. Results indicated that Bio-LP1 had highly promising effects on partially ameliorating MDR-E. coli infection by reducing the inflammatory response through inhibiting the overexpression of proinflammatory-cytokines such as secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL-6 and IL-β) and strongly regulated theTLR4 signaling-pathway. Additionally, avoided the villous destruct, colon length shortening, loss of intestinal barrier integrity, and increased disease activity index. Furthermore, significantly increased the relative abundance of beneficial-intestinal-bacteria including Ligilactobacillus, Enterorhabdus, Pervotellaceae, etc. Finally, improved the intestinal mucosal barrier to alleviate the pathological damages and promote the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) a source of energy for the proliferation. In conclusion, plantaricin Bio-LP1 bacteriocin can be considered a safe alternative to antibiotics against MDR-E. coli-induced intestinal inflammation.

Abstract
Probiotics have been shown to possess several properties, depending on the strain. Some probiotics have important roles in preventing infection and balancing the immune system due to the interaction between the intestinal mucosa and cells in the immune system. This study aimed to examine the properties of three probiotic strains using the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibition test in colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (Caco-2 cells). It was revealed that the viable cells and heat-killed cells of the probiotic L. paracasei strain MSMC39-1 dramatically suppressed TNF-α secretion in Caco-2 cells. The strongest strains were then chosen to treat rats with colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). Viable cells of the probiotic L. paracasei strain MSMC39-1 reduced aspartate transaminase and alanine transaminase in the serum and significantly inhibited TNF-α secretion in the colon and liver tissues. Treatment with the probiotic L. paracasei strain MSMC39-1 alleviated the colon and liver histopathology in DSS-induced colitis rats. Furthermore, supplementation with probiotic L. paracasei strain MSMC39-1 increased the genus Lactobacillus and boosted the other beneficial bacteria in the gut. Thus, the probiotic L. paracasei strain MSMC39-1 exhibited an anti-inflammation effect in the colon and modulated the gut microbiota.

Sanguinarine ameliorates DSS induced ulcerative colitis by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation and modulating intestinal microbiota in C57BL/6 mice. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 104:154321. [PMID: 35843190 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.154321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2021] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sanguinarine (SAN) is an important natural anti-inflammatory constitutes and dietary supplementation with SAN could improve the relative length of the intestine, alter gut microbiota, and enhance growth performance of pigs, broiler chickens, and cattle. However, it is unclear whether it has the therapeutic effect on ulcerative colitis (UC). PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of SAN on UC and explore its mechanisms of action. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Several efficacy indexes of SAN on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced C57BL/6 mice were evaluated. ELISA kit and western blot analysis were used to evaluate it's anti-inflammatory effect and the mechanism of action. 16S rDNA sequencing detection was used to determine the impact of SAN on gut microbiota. RESULTS SAN and Sulfasalazine could significantly improve the colon length, the weight loss, the symptoms and the pathological injury of colon in DSS-induced mice. Meanwhile, SAN could decrease the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-13 and IL-18) and increase the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) in colon, and suppress DSS-induced high expressions of NLRP3, caspase-1 and IL-1β. In addition, SAN (0.5, 1 μM) could inhibit the expression level of NLRP3 and the activation of caspase-1 and IL-1β in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated THP-1 cells in non-cytotoxic doses, which was similar to that of MCC950, a specific inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. The abundance changes of many genera such as Muribaculaceae_unclassified, Escherichia-Shigella, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group and Helicobacter were also closely related to the improvement of SAN on intestinal inflammatory response. CONCLUSION SAN exhibited therapeutic effect on DSS-induced colitis by blocking NLRP3-(Caspase-1)/IL-1β pathway and improving intestinal microbial dysbiosis. SAN might be developed to treat UC and other disorders associated with microbial dysbiosis.

Abstract
Probiotics have attracted much attention due to their ability to modulate host intestinal microbe, participate in nutrient metabolism or immunomodulatory. Both inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and bowel cancer are digestive system disease, which have become a global public health problem due to their unclear etiology, difficult to cure, and repeated attacks. Disturbed gut microbiota and abnormal lipid metabolism would increase the risk of intestinal inflammation. However, the link between lipid metabolism, probiotics, and IBD is unclear. In this review, we found that different lipids and their derivatives have different effects on IBD and gut microbes. ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) docosahexaenoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and their derivatives resolvin E1, resolvin D can inhibit oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species activate NFκB and MAPk pathway. While ω-6 PUFAs linoleic acid and arachidonic acid can be derived into leukotrienes and prostaglandins, which will aggravate IBD. Cholesterol can be converted into bile acids to promote lipid absorption and affect microbial survival and colonization. At the same time, it is affected by microbial bile salt hydrolase to regulate blood lipids. Low denstiy lipoprotein (LDL) is easily converted into oxidized LDL, thereby promoting inflammation, while high denstiy lipoprotein (HDL) has the opposite effect. Probiotics compete with intestinal microorganisms for nutrients or ecological sites and thus affect the structure of intestinal microbiota. Moreover, microbial short chain fatty acids, bile salt hydrolase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione, etc. can affect lipid metabolism and IBD. In conclusion, probiotics are directly or indirectly involved in lipids metabolism and their impact on IBD, which provides the possibility to explore the role of probiotics in improving gut health.

Abstract
Different infant diets have strong effects on child development and may engender variations in fecal microbiota and metabolites. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an infant formula containing sn-2 palmitate on fecal microbiota and metabolites in healthy term infants. The study involved three groups as indicated below. Investigational: the group fed a formula containing high sn-2 palmitate for 16 weeks. Control: the group fed a formula using a regular vegetable oil for 16 weeks. Breastfed: the group fed breast milk for 16 weeks. Fecal samples were collected at 8 weeks (n = 35, 37, and 35, respectively) and 16 weeks (n = 30, 32, and 30, respectively) for the control, investigational, and breastfed infants. Microbiota data were obtained using 16S rRNA sequencing. Short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) analysis was performed using GC-MS, and untargeted metabolomics was conducted using LC-MS. The effect of the formula containing sn-2 palmitate was different from that of the control formula on microbiota and metabolites. Sn-2 palmitate promoted the proliferation of Bifidobacterium and reduced the abundance of Escherichia-Shigella at 8 weeks. Furthermore, it increased α-diversity and enhanced acetate content in feces at both 8 and 16 weeks. In the investigational group infants, the abundance of DL-tryptophan, indole-3-acrylic acid, acetyl-β-methylcholine, L-methionine, and 2-hydroxyvaleric acid significantly increased at 8 weeks, while a notable increase in the abundance of 3-phenyllactic acid, palmitic acid, L-phenylalanine, and leucylproline was observed at 16 weeks. In addition, compared with that of the control infants, the intestinal microbiota and metabolites of sn-2 palmitate-supplemented infants were more similar to those of the breastfed infants. The study hopes to provide a scientific basis for the development of functional infant formulas in the future.

Inflammatory Response and Oxidative Stress as Mechanism of Reducing Hyperuricemia of Gardenia jasminoides- Poria cocos with Network Pharmacology. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:8031319. [PMID: 34917234 PMCID: PMC8670933 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8031319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2021] [Revised: 07/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a metabolic disease, closely related to oxidative stress and inflammatory responses, caused by reduced excretion or increased production of uric acid. However, the existing therapeutic drugs have many side effects. It is imperative to find a drug or an alternative medicine to effectively control HUA. It was reported that Gardenia jasminoides and Poria cocos could reduce the level of uric acid in hyperuricemic rats through the inhibition of xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity. But there were few studies on its mechanism. Therefore, the effective ingredients in G. jasminoides and P. cocoa extracts (GPE), the active target sites, and the further potential mechanisms were studied by LC-/MS/MS, molecular docking, and network pharmacology, combined with the validation of animal experiments. These results proved that GPE could significantly improve HUA induced by potassium oxazine with the characteristics of multicomponent, multitarget, and multichannel overall regulation. In general, GPE could reduce the level of uric acid and alleviate liver and kidney injury caused by inflammatory response and oxidative stress. The mechanism might be related to the TNF-α and IL-7 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) is a self-limiting disease mediated by antibiotic therapy. In clinical practice, several types of probiotics are used in treating AAD, but minimal research has been done on Bacteroides-based microecologics. Our aim was to evaluate the therapeutic effects of Bacteroidetes uniformis FGDLZ48B1, B. intestinalis FJSWX61K18, Bifidobacterium adolescentis FHNFQ48M5, and B. bifidum FGZ30MM3 and their mixture on AAD in mice. The lincomycin hydrochloride-induced AAD models were gavaged with a single strain or a probiotic mixture for a short period to assess the changes in colonic histopathology and cytokine concentrations, intestinal epithelial permeability and integrity, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and the diversity of intestinal microbiota. Our data indicated that both the sole use of Bacteroides and the combination of Bacteroides and Bifidobacterium beneficially weakened systemic inflammation, increased the recovery rate of tissue structures, increased the concentrations of SCFAs, and restored the gut microbiota. Moreover, the probiotic mixture was more effective than the single strain. Specifically, B. uniformis FGDLZ48B1 combined with the B. adolescentis FHNFQ48M5 group was more effective in alleviating the pathological features of the colon, downregulating the concentrations of interleukin (IL)-6, and upregulating the expression of occludin. In summary, our research suggests that administration of a mixture of B. uniformis FGDLZ48B1 and B. adolescentis FHNFQ48M5 is an effective approach for treating AAD.

Lactobacillus casei LC89 exerts antidiabetic effects through regulating hepatic glucagon response and gut microbiota in type 2 diabetic mice. Food Funct 2021; 12:8288-8299.

Abstract
Previous study suggests that Lactobacillus casei exhibits antihyperglycemic activity, however, the molecular mechanism of this has yet to be elucidated. Here, the anti-diabetic effects and underlying mechanisms of Lactobacillus casei LC89 are investigated in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mice, which was induced by a high-fat diet (HFD) with streptozotocin (100 mg per kg BW). The results show that LC89 at a dose of 109 CFU day-1 decreases fasting blood glucose (FBG) and insulin levels by 35.12% and 28.37%, respectively, compared to the diabetes control (DC) group. Moreover, LC89 treatment improved the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), serum lipid profiles and inflammation cytokines. The real-time polymerase chain reaction indicated that LC89 markedly downregulates the mRNA expression of hepatic glucagon (GCG), glucagon receptor (GCGR), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase). Meanwhile, LC89 significantly decreases the abundance of Odoribacter, but increases the Alloprevotella, Bacteroides, Parabacteroides and Ruminococcus content. Therefore, LC89 plays a positive role in alleviating T2DM by regulating gut microbiota and glucagon signal pathway-related genes, and it may be a beneficial dietary supplement to regulate glucose metabolism in T2DM.

Abstract
In this study, cyclophosphamide was injected intraperitoneally to establish an immunosuppressive mouse model to study the immune regulating effects of Durio zibethinus Murr rind polysaccharide (DZMP) through proteomics and intestinal flora. The results showed that the thymus and spleen indexes of the high-dose DZMP (200 mg/kg) group were significantly increased, and the tissue structure of the spleen was improved compared with the model group (
). The contents of IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, and TNF-α in the high-dose group of DZMP were significantly increased (
). Activities of acid phosphatase (ACP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) were increased in serum (
). In the liver, catalase (CAT) activity was increased (
) while the malondialdehyde (MDA) content was decreased and immune activity was increased (
). Proteomics studies showed that the drug group could significantly increase the low-affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc receptor III (FcγRIII) protein and protein kinase C-α (PKC-α) compared with the model group (
). In addition, the result showed that those proteins were likely involved in the regulation of the metabolic pathways of autoimmune thyroid disease, Staphylococcus aureus infection, and NF-κB signaling pathway. Intestinal microbial studies showed that short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) content was increased as well as the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria Akkermansia, Bacteroides, and Paraprevotella, while the relative abundance of Ruminococcus and Oscillospira was decreased compared with the model group (
). The results showed that DZMP might play a beneficial role in immune regulation by improving intestinal flora.
