Abstract
BACKGROUND Paraprobiotics and postbiotics have shown potential in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). However, their in vivo application is still in its infancy and their mechanisms of action are not well understood. RESULTS Here, we investigated the mitigation effects of Limosilactobacillus fermentum HF06-derived paraprobiotic (6-PA) and postbiotic (6-PS) on dextran sulfate sodium induced UC and the potential mechanisms. Results indicated that the administration of 6-PA and 6-PS resulted in the inhibition of weight loss and colon shortening in mice with UC. Furthermore, they led to a significant reduction in both fecal moisture content and the levels of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress in the intestine of the mice. 6-PA and 6-PS treatment strengthened the intestinal mucosal barrier by dramatically upregulating the levels of zonula occludens-1 and occludin proteins. In addition, 6-PA and 6-PS restored intestinal dysbiosis by regulating abundances of certain bacteria, such as Bifidobacterium, Faecalibaculum, Muribaculaceae, Corynebacterium, Escherichia-Shigella and Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1, and regulated the level of short-chain fatty acids. CONCLUSION These findings illustrated for the first time that L. fermentum HF06-derived paraprobiotic and postbiotic enhanced the intestinal barrier function, and restored gut microbiota alterations. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Tian X, Cao H, Yan J, Li C, Li F, Li Y, Huang F, Bao C, Cao Y, Rao Z. Effect of dietary supplementation with recombinant human lysozyme on growth performance, antioxidative characteristics, and intestinal health in broiler chickens. J Anim Sci 2024; 102:skae121. [PMID: 38745481 DOI: 10.1093/jas/skae121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Lysozyme is often used as a feed additive to act as an antibacterial protein that boosts the immune system of livestock and poultry while protecting against pathogens. To investigate the effects of recombinant human lysozyme (rhLYZ) from Pichia pastoris and chlortetracycline on broiler chicken's production performance, antioxidant characteristics, and intestinal microbiota, a total of 200, 1-d-old male Arbor Acres broiler chickens (46.53 ± 0.42 g) were selected for a 42-d experiment. Dietary treatments included a basal diet of corn-soybean meal supplemented with either 0 mg/kg (CON), 50 mg/kg aureomycin (ANT), 20 mg/kg rhLYZ (LOW), 60 mg/kg rhLYZ (MEDIUM), or 180 mg/kg rhLYZ (HIGH). Compared with CON, MEDIUM diet increased (P < 0.05) average daily gain (67.40 g) of broilers from day 22 to 42. In the early (1.29) and overall phases (1.69), MEDIUM led to a reduction (P < 0.05) in the feed conversion ratio of broiler chickens. Furthermore, in comparison to the CON and ANT, MEDIUM exhibited reduced (P < 0.05) levels of INF-γ and tumor necrosis factor-α in the serum. In the cecum, the abundance of Monoglobus and Family_XIII_AD3011_group was lower (P < 0.05) in the MEDIUM treatment compared to CON. Overall, supplementation of 60 mg/kg of rhLYZ improved growth performance, nutrient utilization efficiency, and serum immune function, while also influencing the composition of intestinal microbiota. This suggests lysozyme's potential to replace antibiotic additives in feed.

Abstract
Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder. The pathophysiology remains poorly understood; however, alterations in the small intestinal microbiome have been observed. Current treatments for FD with drugs are limited, and there are certain safety problems. A class of active probiotic bacteria can control gastrointestinal homeostasis, nutritional digestion and absorption, and the energy balance when taken in certain dosages. Probiotics play many roles in maintaining intestinal microecological balance, improving the intestinal barrier function, and regulating the immune response. The presence and composition of intestinal microorganisms play a vital role in the onset and progression of FD and serve as a critical factor for both regulation and potential intervention regarding the management of this condition. Thus, there are potential advantages to alleviating FD by regulating the intestinal flora using probiotics, targeting intestinal microorganisms. This review summarizes the research progress of probiotics regarding improving FD by regulating intestinal flora and provides a reference basis for probiotics to improve FD.

Zhong Y, Wang T, Wang X, Lü X. The Protective Effect of Heat-Inactivated Companilactobacillus crustorum on Dextran Sulfate Sodium-Induced Ulcerative Colitis in Mice. Nutrients 2023; 15:2746. [PMID: 37375650 DOI: 10.3390/nu15122746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Heat-inactivated microorganisms are a typical class of postbiotics with promising potential health effects, as they contain various physiologically active components. Dietary supplementation with Companilactobacillus crustorum MN047 (CC) has been shown to have the potential to alleviate ulcerative colitis (UC). However, it is unclear whether the UC-relieving effect of this strain is partly attributed to its bacterial composition. Therefore, the interventional effects of heat-inactivated CC (HICC) on UC mice were explored. The results showed that the administration of HICC significantly ameliorated the UC-related pathological parameters by (1) alleviating the pathologic lesions of UC (e.g., preventing the increase in disease activity index and the shortening of colon length); (2) ameliorating the colonic inflammation (e.g., inhibiting the expressions of chemokines and pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as Cxcl1, Cxcl5, Ccl7, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and MCP-1; (3) attenuating the oxidative damage (e.g., suppressing the increase in myeloperoxidase and malondialdehyde); (4) mitigating the damage of gut barrier (e.g., promoting colonic occludin, ZO-1, and claudin levels); and (5) modulating gut microbiota structure (e.g., increasing the relative abundance of potential probiotics, such as Akkermansia and Lactobacillus). In conclusion, our study suggested that HICC can be effective in preventing UC and has the potential as a dietary supplement to intervene in UC.

The Probiotic Strains Bifidοbacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Saccharomyces boulardii Regulate Wound Healing and Chemokine Responses in Human Intestinal Subepithelial Myofibroblasts. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:ph15101293. [PMID: 36297405 PMCID: PMC9611312 DOI: 10.3390/ph15101293] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 10/07/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Saccharomyces boulardii are common probiotic supplements. Colonic subepithelial myofibroblasts (cSEMFs) are actively involved in mucosal wound healing and inflammation. cSEMFs, isolated from healthy individuals, were stimulated with 102 or 104 cfu/mL of these probiotic strains alone and in combination, and their effect on chemokine and wound healing factor expression was assessed by qRT-PCR, ELISA and Sircol Assay, and on cSEMFs migration, by Wound Healing Assay. These strains remained viable and altered cSEMFs’ inflammatory and wound healing behavior, depending on the strain and concentration. cSEMFs treated with a combination of the four probiotics had a moderate, but statistically significant, increase in the mRNA and/or protein expression of chemokines CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL4, CXCL8, CXCL10, CCL2 and CCL5, and healing factors, collagen type I and III, fibronectin and tissue factor. In contrast, when each strain was administered alone, different effects were observed, with greater increase or decrease in chemokine and healing factor expression, which was balanced by the mixture. Overall, this study highlights that the use of multiple probiotic strains can potentially alert the gut mucosal immune system and promote wound healing, having a better effect on mucosal immunity than the use of single probiotics.
