The invention relates to the technical field of microorganisms, in particular to application of
Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 to improvement of
diabetes mellitus, which comprises the following steps: performing
liquid culture,
centrifugation and resuspension on the
Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 with the preservation number of ATCC31821 to obtain a bacterial suspension, and then using the bacterial suspension to improve the
diabetes mellitus, wherein the
Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 in the bacterial suspension still has activity after being centrifuged and resuspended; the bacterial suspension does not contain a
fermentation product of the
Zymomonas mobilis ZM4. According to the application of the
Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 in improvement of
diabetes mellitus, the
probiotic characteristics of the
Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 are utilized to improve the types and abundance of intestinal
flora, so that the
blood sugar of a mouse with
type II diabetes mellitus is reduced, the
oral glucose tolerance of the mouse is improved, the contents of glycosylated
hemoglobin,
blood insulin and GLP-1 are adjusted, and the diabetes mellitus is improved. The level of
inflammatory factors related to diabetes mellitus is reduced, and damaged
islet cells can be improved and recovered to a certain extent.
