Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a lactobacillus gasseri strain for relieving salmonella typhimurium infection and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of microorganisms. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the whole world, salmonella typhimurium is the pathogen causing the most deaths in foodborne diseases, and compared with other common foodborne pathogens, salmonella typhimurium has the greatest impact on human health. The infection of salmonella typhimurium is generally caused by the intake of contaminated animal-derived food. Compared with adults, infants are more susceptible to infection, and enteric infection caused by salmonella is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in infants in developing countries. It is estimated that there are about 16 million cases of salmonella typhi infection every year, and the number of deaths is about 200,000 to 600,000 per year. In clinical practice, the infection of salmonella typhimurium can cause symptoms such as headache, listlessness, fever, etc. in the host. After reaching the intestine, salmonella typhimurium contacts with intestinal epithelial cells through flagella and chemotaxis system, activates type III secretion system, and transmits the effector protein produced by salmonella typhimurium to intestinal epithelial cells, so that salmonella typhimurium is internalized to cause inflammatory response and produce various inflammatory cytokines such as IL-8, TNF-α and IL-1β. In addition, lipopolysaccharide and some lipoproteins in the cell wall of salmonella typhimurium can induce a large number of inflammatory responses in the posterior tissue, thereby producing various inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and IL-12. At present, the number of multidrug-resistant salmonella typhi isolates with fluoroquinolone resistance is gradually increasing, and salmonella typhi with resistance to ciprofloxacin and cephalosporin has appeared. When treating cats infected with salmonella typhimurium with systemic symptoms, the use of conventional antibiotics can lead to the production of drug-resistant strains, and can prolong the recovery period of cats. Due to drug resistance and possible side effects of antibiotic treatment, probiotics with bacteriostatic effect of bacteriocins are a good alternative to antibiotics.

[0003] Compared with other probiotics, lactobacillus gasseri (Lactobacillus gasseri) has the following advantages: (1) it can produce a variety of bacteriocins with antibacterial activity, and can inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria such as salmonella typhimurium, staphylococcus aureus, etc. (2) it can produce a variety of enzymes such as amylase, protease, etc., which can hydrolyze the nutrients in the intestinal tract and provide nutrients for the host. (3) it can produce a variety of short-chain fatty acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, etc., which can inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract. (4) it can produce a variety of immunomodulatory factors such as superoxide dismutase, etc., which can enhance the host's immune function and inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria. (5) it can produce a variety of probiotic factors such as folic acid, etc., which can promote the growth of the host. Lactobacillus gasseriLactobacillus gasseri is a probiotic naturally existing in the mucosa of the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract and other mucosa, is one of the dominant species involved in the early colonization of intestinal microorganisms, has been included in the edible list, and can produce multiple bacteriocins such as lactobacillin T, lactobacillin K7B and acidocin B. In the current research, Lactobacillus gasseri SBT2055 producing lactobacillin T can competitively inhibit Campylobacter jejuni, thereby inhibiting the colonization of Campylobacter jejuni in the early growth stage of the natural host chick. Continuous intake of Lactobacillus gasseri CECT5714 and Lactobacillus coryniformis CECT5711 producing bacteriocins can increase the content of butyric acid in the human intestinal tract, promote the secretion of mucosal IgA and reduce the colonization of Salmonella choleraesuis. The recovery rate of patients with bacterial vaginosis who orally take capsules containing Lactobacillus gasseri after receiving clindamycin treatment is 18% higher than that of patients who do not receive it, the vaginal pH is reduced, the bacterial vaginosis-related diagnostic indicators are improved, and the total vaginal lactobacillus content is increased. Therefore, Lactobacillus gasseri producing bacteriocins can help the host maintain intestinal microecological stability, inhibit the infection of pathogens, and alleviate the damage caused by pathogen infection to the host.

[0004] Based on the comprehensive analysis of the current research and application status, the bacteriocin-producing Lactobacillus gasseri strains used to alleviate Salmonella typhimurium infection are not rich enough. It is necessary to screen more bacteriocin-producing Lactobacillus gasseri strains with the ability to alleviate Salmonella typhimurium infection in order to cope with individual, regional and diarrhea type differences.

[0068] Example 2: Cultivation of Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 and preparation of bacterial suspension

[0069] 1. Culture and preservation of Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307

[0070] The Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 obtained in Example 1 was inoculated into MRS solid medium and cultured in an anaerobic incubator at 37°C for 48 h. After observation, the colonies were found to be grayish-white with rough edges and round convexity.

[0071] The Lactobacillus gasseri obtained in Example 1 ( Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 was inoculated into MRS liquid medium and cultured anaerobically at 37℃ for 24 h. Then, it was transferred to fresh MRS liquid medium and cultured under the same conditions for 24 h. The bacterial cells were centrifuged at 6000g for 15 min, washed with 0.9g / 100mL physiological saline, and centrifuged again at 6000g for 10 min to obtain the bacterial cells. The cells were then added to 30% glycerol and frozen at -80℃ for later use.

[0072] 2. Prepare bacterial suspension as follows:

[0073] (1) Activation culture:

[0074] MRS liquid culture medium was used, and the culture was statically incubated in an anaerobic workstation at 37°C.

[0075] Culture objective: Take cryopreserved bacterial cells, pick single colonies and place them in liquid MRS medium, and incubate statically in an anaerobic workstation at 37°C for about 24 hours to activate Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307.

[0076] (2) Primary training:

[0077] MRS liquid culture medium was used, and the culture was statically incubated in an anaerobic workstation at 37°C.

[0078] Culture objective: Transfer activated Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 to MRS liquid medium at an inoculum volume of 1% (by volume of the medium) and passage it for two generations.

[0079] (3) Secondary cultivation:

[0080] The activated bacterial culture, after three generations, was inoculated into 1 L of MRS liquid medium at a 2% (v / v) inoculation rate. After shaking and mixing, it was incubated in an anaerobic incubator at 37°C for 24 h. The culture was centrifuged at 8000 g / min at 4°C for 15 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the culture was washed twice with sterile physiological saline. After centrifugation under the same conditions and discarding of the supernatant, the culture was resuspended in 30% glycerol to obtain the bacterial culture for gavage administration. The culture was centrifuged at 6000 rpm for 5 min, washed twice with sterile physiological saline, resuspended in physiological saline, and shaken thoroughly. The initial viable count was determined using the pour plate method. The culture was then frozen in 30% glycerol at -80°C for one week, and the viable count was determined again.

[0081] Experimental results: The initial viable count was 7.03 × 10⁻⁶. 9 CFU / mL, viable bacterial count after 1 week was 6.5 × 10⁻⁶. 9 The cfu / mL concentration did not change in order of magnitude, indicating that freezing the bacterial culture would not affect the experiment and it can be used for animal experiments.

[0082] Example 3: Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 alleviates weight loss in mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium.

[0083] 1. Laboratory animals

[0084] Seven-week-old female SPF-grade C57BL / 6J mice were obtained from Zhejiang Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd., China. Mice were housed in polypropylene cages, eight mice per group, with food and water provided in the cages. Temperature (22℃) and relative humidity (50±10%) were controlled. Mice were fed standard feed and any amount of water.

[0085] 2. Experimental Methods

[0086] (1) Salmonella Typhimurium ( Salmonella typhimurium Establishment of a CICC 21483-infected mouse model

[0087] C57BL / 6J mice aged 7 weeks were selected, and the 7 days before the experiment were the adaptation period, the 8-17 days were the intervention period, and the 13-17 days were the modeling period. After 2 h of fasting and water deprivation, 5x10 6 0.2 mL of Salmonella typhimurium bacterial suspension with a CFU / mL of 0.2 mL, immediately restore drinking water, 2 h later feed, the blank group was given 0.2 mL of sterile normal saline by gavage. During the modeling period, the mice were weighed every day.

[0088] (2) Experimental grouping and administration

[0089] The mice were divided into a blank group, a model group, and a CCFM1307 group.

[0090] Before gavage, the bacterial solution was taken out from -80℃, centrifuged at 6000 r / min for 5 min, washed twice with sterile normal saline, and resuspended in normal saline, with a concentration of 5x10 9 CFU / mL.

[0091] During the intervention period, the blank group and the model group were given 0.2 mL of sterile normal saline by gavage every day for a total of 10 days. The CCFM1307 group was given Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 bacterial suspension by gavage, and the mice in each group were fed with standard feed during the experiment.

[0092] In clinical practice, infection with non-typhoid Salmonella can cause symptoms such as headache, listlessness, fever, and in existing research, it has been found that mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium experience a sustained decrease in body weight. During the entire modeling period, the body weight of the model group mice decreased by 11.4%, and the body weight of the blank group and the CCFM1307 group decreased by 7.1% and 7.26%, respectively, which was significantly different from the model group (p<0.05) Figure 1 Therefore, Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 has a good effect on restoring the decrease in body weight of mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium.

[0093] Example 4: Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 improves ileum and colon tissue damage in mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium

[0094] The method for constructing the animal model is the same as in Example 3. After the experiment, the mice are sacrificed, and the ileum and colon of the mice are taken and soaked in 4% (v / v) paraformaldehyde for 24 h to obtain fixed intestinal tissues. The fixed intestinal tissues are sequentially dehydrated, transparentized, and impregnated with wax, and then the tissues are embedded in wax blocks using a Leica paraffin embedding machine to obtain wax blocks with embedded intestinal tissues. The specific steps of dehydration, transparentization, and impregnation with wax are as follows: (1) dehydration: the fixed tissues are sequentially dehydrated in 70%, 80%, and 90% (v / v) gradient ethanol solutions for 30 min each, and then placed in 95% and 100% (v / v) alcohol solutions for 20 min each time for 2 times; (2) transparentization: the tissues are first placed in an alcohol and xylene mixed solution with a volume ratio of 1:1 for 15 min, and then placed in xylene I and xylene II for 15 min each; (3) impregnation with wax: the tissue samples are placed in 62°C paraffin I and paraffin II liquids for 30 min each.

[0095] The wax block embedding the intestinal tissue is sliced by a Leica manual rotary microtome, and the thickness of the slice is 5 μm, to obtain an intestinal tissue slice; the intestinal tissue slice is subjected to spreading and fishing, baking, hematoxylin staining, differentiation, rinsing, eosin re-staining, dehydration, transparency, and mounting, to obtain an H&E slice; wherein, the specific operations of spreading and fishing, baking, hematoxylin staining, differentiation, rinsing, eosin re-staining, dehydration, transparency, and mounting are as follows: (1) spreading and fishing: the slice is placed in a 42℃ constant temperature water bath for spreading, and then carefully fished out with a glass slide; (2) baking: the slice is placed in a 60℃ oven overnight for baking; (3) hematoxylin staining: the slice is first hydrated (i.e., first placed in xylene I and xylene II for 5 min each, and then placed in 100%, 95%, 90%, 80% and 70% (v / v) gradient alcohol solutions for 5 min each, and finally placed in distilled water for 3 min), then dyed (i.e., the slice is placed in a hematoxylin staining solution for about 20 s), and finally washed (i.e., the slice is washed with tap water for about 30 min); (4) differentiation: the slice is placed in a 1% (v / v) hydrochloric acid ethanol solution for 7 s for decolorization; (5) rinsing: the slice is washed with tap water for about 20 min; (6) re-staining: the slice is immersed in an eosin staining solution and immediately taken out; (7) dehydration: the slice is first placed in 95% (v / v) ethanol solution I, 95% (v / v) ethanol solution II, and 70% (v / v) ethanol solution, and immediately taken out after each placement, then immersed in 80% (v / v) ethanol solution for 50 s, and finally immersed in 100% (v / v) ethanol for 2 min; (8) transparency: the slice is first immersed in an equal volume mixture of ethanol and xylene for 1 min, and then immersed in xylene I and xylene II for 2 min each; (9) mounting: the slice is mounted with neutral balsam. The prepared H&E intestinal slice is scanned by a Pannoramic MIDI digital slice scanner, and photographed to observe the damage of the mouse intestinal tissue and perform pathological scoring, and the results are shown in Figure 2 .

[0096] The mouse ileum and colon tissues infected with Salmonella typhimurium exhibit inflammatory cell infiltration and other characteristics, which can serve as an indicator of the damage caused by Salmonella typhimurium infection to some extent. Figure 2 It is shown that, compared with the blank group, the ileal tissue of the model group mice has villus shedding, and there is a large area of inflammatory cell infiltration in the ileum and colon, and Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 can well alleviate this symptom and significantly reduce the pathological score.

[0097] Example 5: Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 reduces the level of inflammatory factors in the ileum of mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium

[0098] The C57BL / 6J mice are grouped, modeled, and treated in the same manner as in Example 3.

[0099] After the mice were sacrificed on day 18, the ileum of the mice was homogenized, and tissue supernatant was obtained after centrifugation at 4000 x g for 15 min. The IL-12 level in the ileum of mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). As shown in Figure 3 the IL-12 level in the ileum tissue of the model group was 3.40 pg / mg, which was significantly increased by Salmonella typhimurium infection (p<0.05) compared with the blank group (1.84 pg / mg), and was 1.85 times that of the blank group. Compared with the model group, Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 treatment significantly reduced the IL-12 level in the ileum of mice to 2.39 pg / mg (29.71% lower than the model group).

[0107] As shown in Figure 4~7 After the mice were infected with Salmonella typhimurium, the contents of butyric acid, isobutyric acid, valeric acid and isovaleric acid in the feces of the model group mice were all reduced to a certain extent compared with the blank group, wherein the content of butyric acid was 5.88 μmol / g, the content of isobutyric acid was 2.67 μmol / g, the content of valeric acid was 2.01 μmol / g, and the content of isovaleric acid was 2.38 μmol / g, which were respectively decreased by 36.57%, 32.23%, 37.58% and 35.15% (p<0.05) compared with the blank group. However, after the mice were orally administered with Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307, the contents of butyric acid, isobutyric acid, valeric acid and isovaleric acid were respectively 8.02 μmol / g, 3.70 μmol / g, 2.89 μmol / g and 3.25 μmol / g, which were respectively increased by 36.39%, 38.58%, 43.78% and 36.55% (p<0.05) compared with the model group. Short-chain fatty acids can reduce the pH value of the intestinal tract, promote the absorption of calcium and magnesium ions in the intestinal tract, and inhibit the infection of harmful bacteria.

[0108] Example 8: Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 reduces the relative abundance of Salmonella typhimurium in the feces of mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium Bacteroides Relative abundance

[0109] The C57BL / 6J mice were grouped, modeled and treated as in Example 3.

[0110] After the end of the experiment, the genomic DNA in the feces was extracted, the V3-V4 region was specifically PCR-amplified, 16S rDNA sequencing was performed, and the change of the fecal flora was analyzed. As shown in Figure 8, the results showed that compared with the blank group, the relative abundance of Salmonella typhimurium in the feces of infected mice Bacteroides significantly increased (p<0.05). CCFM1307 can significantly reduce the relative abundance (p<0.05) of Salmonella typhimurium in the feces of infected mice. Bacteroides

[0111] The above results show that Lactobacillus gasseri CCFM1307 can effectively improve the symptoms of weight loss and intestinal tissue damage in mice. By regulating inflammatory factors IL-12, IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-1β, it can alleviate the inflammation caused by Salmonella typhimurium infection. By increasing the content of short-chain fatty acids to reduce the pH value of the intestine, inhibit the invasion of harmful bacteria, stimulate intestinal peristalsis, and regulate intestinal flora to maintain intestinal microecological homeostasis.
