Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of microorganisms, and specifically to a strain of Akkermansia muciniphila YG2645 having the function of regulating the intestinal-immune-metabolic axis, its derivatives, a composition comprising the aforementioned, and the use of Akkermansia muciniphila or its derivatives and the composition comprising the aforementioned in the preparation of anti-inflammatory products. Background Art

[0002] The imbalance of intestinal flora is an important factor in the occurrence of various inflammatory diseases (such as inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, etc.). Normal intestinal flora regulates the host immune system through various mechanisms to maintain the balance of inflammation. Th1 and Th17 cells are two important types of pro-inflammatory T cells. Th1 cells mainly secrete IFN-γ and participate in cell-mediated immune responses; Th17 cells secrete IL-17 and participate in the pathological process of inflammatory diseases. Both play a key role in many inflammatory diseases.

[0003] Traditional treatments for inflammatory diseases rely on drugs, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and immunosuppressants, but these methods may cause side effects, and long-term use may cause side effects, such as gastrointestinal discomfort, immunosuppression, etc., affecting the overall health of patients. They are also unable to specifically regulate intestinal flora or metabolic pathways, let alone enhance intestinal barrier function.

[0004] Biological agents (such as monoclonal antibodies, immunosuppressants, etc.) can effectively alleviate inflammatory responses by targeting specific inflammatory mediators or cells. However, such treatments are costly, may cause serious side effects, and require medical monitoring under specific conditions.

[0005] Some probiotics (such as lactic acid bacteria, bifidobacteria, etc.) have been used to regulate intestinal flora and treat certain inflammatory diseases. However, these probiotics mainly work by competitively inhibiting harmful bacteria or enhancing host immune responses, and lack the function of specifically regulating specific immune pathways or metabolic pathways.

[0006] Akkermansia muciniphila is an intestinal probiotic that plays a key role in human intestinal health, especially in the maintenance of the mucus layer and the regulation of the immune system. Currently, there are no reports showing its role in inflammatory diseases.

[0007] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not be regarded as an acknowledgment or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

[0065] In the following examples, unless otherwise specified, other reagents or raw materials used are commercially available.

[0066] Example 1: Isolation and identification of Akkermansia muciniphila

[0067] (1) Strain isolation

[0068] Feces of healthy children in China were collected, and 1 g of fecal specimens were collected. Fecal genomic DNA was extracted using a fecal genome extraction kit (Qiagen, Germany) according to the operating manual, and its concentration and purity were detected using an enzyme reader. The fecal DNA concentration was adjusted to 10 ng / μL as a qPCR template for detection, and samples with positive test results were isolated for strains.

[0069] Take 1g of positive stool sample and put it into 9mL of PBS buffer. Vortex and mix well. Then dilute it tenfold with sterile saline. -4 , 10 -5 , 10 -6 Three dilution gradients were prepared. 0.5 mL of each dilution was added to a 4.5 mL enrichment tube containing mucin culture medium. The mixture was cultured anaerobically at 37 °C for 72 h. PBS was used for continuous gradient dilution. The dilution was 10 -3 ~10 -6 The diluted liquids were spread on BHI agar medium respectively, and 2 plates were spread for each dilution. The solid plates were cultured in an anaerobic incubator at 37°C for 48 to 72 hours. The colonies were picked and purified on BHI agar medium for more than 3 times until the colonies on the plates were consistent in morphology.

[0070] (2) Strain identification

[0071] A. Colony morphology

[0072] After culturing the 7 isolated strains on BHI agar medium for 24 to 48 hours, the diameter of the colonies ranged from 0.01 to 1.0 mm, and the edges of the colonies were smooth, milky white, and viscous.

[0073] B. 16S rRNA sequencing

[0074] The isolated strains were sent to Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. for 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and the 16S rRNA sequencing results were compared with the NCBI database by BLAST (https: / / blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / Blast.cgi). Combined with their colony morphology, the 7 isolated strains were preliminarily determined to be Akkermansia muciniphila (hereinafter referred to as Akk), and were named YG4072, YG2645, YG4071, YG4081, YG2643, YG2639 and YG2609 (hereinafter referred to as 4072, 2645, 4071, 4081, 2643, 2639 and 2609, respectively).

[0075] Through the efficacy screening of the following examples, it was identified that YG2645 has the ability to effectively relieve cellular inflammation and improve acute and chronic ulcerative colitis (UC) and acute colitis, that is, Akkermansia muciniphila YG2645 of the present invention, and its 16S rRNA sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0076] Example 2: Screening of Akkermansia muciniphila (AKK) strains with anti-inflammatory function based on cell models

[0077] 1.1 Preparation of working solution

[0078] LPS mother solution: weigh 10 mg of LPS powder (Solebol, IL2020-10 mg) into a 15 ml EP tube and add 10 ml of MEM basal medium to prepare a concentrate with a concentration of 1 mg / ml (1000 μg / ml). Sterilize with a 0.22 μm filter membrane, dispense into 1.5 ml EP tubes, and store at -20°C.

[0079] LPS (1 μg / ml) + TNF-α (10 ng / ml) induction reagent: dilute the LPS stock solution with MEM to 1 μg / ml for later use; use LPS (1 μg / ml) solution to dilute tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) active protein (Yun-Clone, China) to the required concentration of the experiment (5 ng / ml, 10 ng / ml, 20 ng / ml, 30 ng / ml) for later use.

[0080] Preparation of improved BHI liquid (or solid) culture medium: weigh 0.5 g of L-cysteine ​​hydrochloride solid particles (Solaibao, China), weigh 37 g of BHI powder (oxoid, UK) and add them to 800 mL of distilled water (solid culture medium needs to add 2% agar powder (Solaibao, China), i.e. 20 g), stir and mix well, sterilize at 121°C and high pressure for 15 min, wait until the culture medium temperature drops to 50-60°C, dissolve 5 g of L-threonine (BBI, China) and N-acetylglucose (BBI, China) in 200 mL of distilled water (stir with a glass rod until the solution is completely dissolved), filter with a 0.22 μm filter, add to the high pressure culture medium, and store in a refrigerator at 4°C for use.

[0081] 1.2 Pretreatment of strains

[0082] Resuscitation of strains

[0083] After checking the number of the original strain taken out from -80℃, shake it in a 37℃ water bath to melt it, then add 5% of it to 5mL of modified BHIS liquid culture medium, loosen the bottle cap, and culture it at 37℃ under anaerobic conditions for 15-18h.

[0084] Strain verification

[0085] When the bacterial solution becomes turbid (OD value is about 0.4-0.8), use an inoculation loop to dip into the bacterial solution, draw three lines on the modified BHIS solid culture medium, culture at 37°C under anaerobic conditions for 48-72h, and pick a single colony for mass spectrometry identification.

[0086] Activation of strains

[0087] Pick the correctly identified colonies and put them into 5 mL of modified BHIS liquid culture medium, and culture them at 37°C under anaerobism for 18-22 hours until the bacterial solution becomes turbid; then add 5% of the bacterial solution into new modified BHIS liquid culture medium, and culture them at 37°C under anaerobic conditions for 15 hours until the bacterial solution becomes turbid, and repeat this action twice to achieve the best bacterial activity.

[0088] Dilution of bacterial solution

[0089] Determine the OD value of the cultured AKK bacterial solution and adjust the OD value of the strain to 0.4 (5×10 8 CFU / mL), without centrifugation, take an appropriate amount of bacterial solution and add it to the MEM culture medium required for the experiment, so that its MOI (Multiplicity of infection) = 100, which is used for subsequent cell infection experiments.

[0090] 1.3 Evaluation of the anti-inflammatory ability of AKK strains in inflammatory cell models

[0091] HT-29 cells (Punosai, China) were cultured to the logarithmic phase and the cells were collected. A normal control group (Con), a model group (LPS (1 μg / ml) + TNF-α (10 ng / ml), referred to as TL) and a treatment group (AKK strain) were set up in a 12-well plate. The cell suspension concentration was adjusted to 5×10 5 Each well was inoculated with 1 mL of cell suspension and the cell culture plate was placed in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h.

[0092] After 24 hours of culture, the cells grew to a monolayer, the culture medium was removed, and the cells were washed once with sterile PBS. 1 ml of MEM culture medium was added to the control and model groups, and 1 mL of AKK strain dilution with an MOI of 100 was added to each well of the treatment group. After 6 hours of infection, the cells were washed once with sterile PBS, 1 mL of MEM culture medium was added to the control group, and 1 mL of induction reagent with a concentration of LPS (1 μg / ml) + TNF-α (10 ng / ml) was added to the model group and the treatment group, respectively. After 2 hours of culture, the cell supernatant was collected, and the protein level of the inflammatory factor IL-8 in the cell supernatant was determined using the MQ60PLUS fully automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay system (Thermogene Bio). TransZol (Quanshijin, R61225) was used to lyse the cells and extract RNA for subsequent RT-PCR, and the gene level content of the inflammatory factors IL-1β and IL-8 and the immunoglobulin superfamily ICAM-1 in the cell supernatant was detected (after obtaining the Ct value, 2 -△△Ct formula for calculation).

[0093] IL-8 is an important indicator in the pathogenesis of UC and a marker for measuring the effectiveness of treatment. Figure 1As shown in Figure A, after induction with LPS (1 μg / ml) and TNF-α (10 ng / ml), the IL-8 level in the cell supernatant increased significantly compared with the control group. However, after treatment with the standard strain ATCC BAA-835 (hereinafter referred to as ATCC835, 835), no significant changes were observed compared with the model group. In contrast, YG4072, YG2645, YG4071, YG4081, YG2643, YG2639, and YG2609 showed better inhibitory effects and significantly reduced the IL-8 factor content. According to the formula: Inhibition rate % = (model group mean - treatment group mean) / model group mean * 100%, the inhibition rates were calculated as follows: ATCC BAA-835 group 31.89%, YG4072 group 34.53%, YG2645 group 62.31%, YG4071 group 54.48%, YG4081 group 83.31%, YG2643 group 62.4%, YG2639 group 67.56%, and YG2609 group 70.12%.

[0094] Further RT-PCR detection showed that the gene expression level of inflammatory factor IL-1β also changed ( Figure 1 This confirmed that strains YG2645, YG2643, and YG2609 had significant effects on inhibiting the expression of IL-1β induced by LPS and TNF-α. Figure 1 As shown in Figure C, after LPS and TNF-α induction, the gene expression level of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) increased significantly, while YG2645 treatment significantly reduced the abnormally elevated ICAM-1 level. This indicates that the YG2645 strain can effectively regulate the expression of ICAM-1 induced by LPS and TNF-α.

[0095] In summary, the YG2645 strain can not only significantly inhibit the expression of IL-8 and IL-1β, but also reduce the expression of ICAM-1 associated with inflammation and tumor cell adhesion, thereby effectively alleviating LPS- and TNF-α-induced cellular inflammation. Its anti-inflammatory ability is superior to other strains and has great research and application potential.

[0096] Example 3: Screening of AKK strains with the function of improving acute UC

[0097] (1) Animal experiment design

[0098] 42 8-week-old C57BL / 6J male mice free of specific pathogens (SPF) were purchased from Beijing Weitong Lihua Experimental Animal Technology Co., Ltd. The mice were raised under a 12-hour light / 12-hour dark cycle, a temperature of 23±3°C, and a humidity of 50%±10%. All mice were allowed to eat and drink freely, and mouse molar sticks were placed in the breeding environment. After one week of adaptive breeding, they were divided into 7 groups, 6 mice in each group, distributed in 2 cages, and acute modeling was carried out for 7 days.

[0099] The specific groupings are:

[0100] (1) Control group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution), intragastric administration of 0.1 ml PBS every day for 7 days;

[0101] (2) Model group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 3.0% DSS), intragastric administration of 0.1 ml PBS every day for 7 days;

[0102] (3) YG4081 group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 3.0% DSS), oral administration of 0.1 ml 1×10 9 CFUmL -1 Bacterial solution, for 7 days;

[0103] (4) YG2645 group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 3.0% DSS), oral administration of 0.1 ml 1×10 9 CFUmL -1 Bacterial solution, for 7 days;

[0104] (5) YG2643 group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 3.0% DSS), oral administration of 0.1 ml 1×10 9 CFUmL -1 Bacterial solution, for 7 days;

[0105] (6) YG2609 group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 3.0% DSS), oral administration of 0.1 ml 1×10 9 CFUmL -1 Bacterial solution, for 7 days;

[0106] (7) ATCC835 group: free access to water (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 3.0% DSS), oral administration of 0.1 ml 1×10 9 CFUmL -1 Bacterial solution for 7 days.

[0107] During the experiment, drinking water for each group was changed every day, DSS (MP, M.W36000-50000) had to be prepared and used immediately, body weight, stool hardness, and fecal occult blood (Shanghai ELISA) were measured every day, and the disease activity index (DAI) was evaluated. On the 7th day of the experiment, the mice were euthanized after blood was collected. The collected blood was centrifuged at 4°C, 5000g for 10 min, the serum was separated, and stored at -80°C. The colon length and spleen weight were recorded, and the colon tissue was collected and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. The colon tissue, colon contents, and cecal contents were placed in sterile freeze-drying tubes and quickly frozen with liquid nitrogen, and then stored at -80°C.

[0108] (2) Measurement method

[0109] a. Pathological examination

[0110] The fixed colon tissues were embedded in paraffin, sectioned at 5 mm, stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and the stained slides were observed under an optical microscope.

[0111] b. Protein detection

[0112] The colon tissue was removed at -80°C, homogenized with an automatic grinder, and the supernatant was used to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and pro-inflammatory factor IL-6 in the colon tissue using an enzyme immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit.

[0113] Four strains (YG4081, YG2645, YG2643 and YG2609) with anti-inflammatory effects screened in vitro were evaluated for their efficacy in relieving acute ulcerative colitis (UC) in vivo, and the ATCC835 group was used as the standard control bacteria group. The disease activity index (DAI) score comprehensively considers the weight changes, stool characteristics and fecal occult blood levels of mice, and can phenotypically reflect the progression of acute UC. During the seven-day modeling experiment, it was observed that the DAI score of the model group increased significantly and the body weight decreased significantly compared with the control group. YG2645 treatment significantly reduced the DAI score and significantly alleviated the weight loss caused by DSS ( Figure 2 Figures A and B in the middle). On the seventh day of modeling, the mice were dissected and found that the colon length of the model group was significantly shortened and the spleen weight was significantly increased compared with the control group. YG2645 treatment can significantly alleviate the shortening of colon length and increase of spleen weight caused by DSS ( Figure 2 In addition, the expression of inflammatory factors in colon tissue was detected.

[0114] The results showed that compared with the control group, the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and pro-inflammatory factor IL-6 in the model group were increased, while YG2645 was able to reduce the expression of TNF-α and IL-6, among which the decrease in TNF-α showed a significant difference ( Figure 2The above results indicate that YG2645 can effectively improve the symptoms of acute UC and reduce the levels of inflammatory factors, demonstrating its value as a potential therapeutic strategy.

[0115] Example 4: YG2645 precisely regulates the intestinal-immune-metabolism axis to significantly improve chronic UC

[0116] 4.1YG2645 improves chronic UC and intestinal epithelial barrier damage

[0117] (1) Animal experiment design

[0118] Eighteen 8-week-old C57BL / 6J male mice free of specific pathogens (SPF) were purchased from Beijing Weitong Lihua Experimental Animal Technology Co., Ltd. The mice were raised under a 12-hour light / 12-hour dark cycle, a temperature of 23±3°C, and a humidity of 50%±10%. All mice were allowed to eat and drink freely, and mouse molar sticks were placed in the feeding environment. After one week of adaptive feeding, they were divided into 7 groups, 6 mice in each group, distributed in 2 cages, and acute modeling was established for 29 days.

[0119] The specific groupings are:

[0120] 1) Control group: gavage with 0.1 ml PBS every day for 29 days;

[0121] 2) Model group: gavage with 0.1 ml PBS every day for 29 days;

[0122] 3) YG2645 group: 0.1 ml 1×10 9 CFUmL -1 Bacterial solution, lasting 29 days.

[0123] The control group freely drank 0.5% sucrose aqueous solution throughout the whole process; the model group and YG2645 group freely drank (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution + 2.5% DSS) for 5 days and (0.5% sucrose aqueous solution) for 7 days, 5 days + 7 days for 1 round, a total of 2.5 rounds. During the experiment, the drinking water of each group was changed every day, and DSS (MP, M.W36000-50000) needed to be prepared and used immediately. The body weight, stool hardness and fecal occult blood (Shanghai ELISA, ml095102) were measured every day, and the disease activity index (DAI) was evaluated. On the 29th day of the experiment, the mice were euthanized after blood was collected. The collected blood was centrifuged at 4°C, 5000g for 10 minutes, serum was separated, and stored at -80°C. The colon length and spleen weight were recorded, and the colon tissue was collected and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. The colon tissue, colon contents and cecal contents were placed in sterile freeze-drying tubes and quickly frozen with liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C.

[0124] (2) Measurement method

[0125] a. Pathological examination

[0126] The fixed colon tissues were embedded in paraffin, sectioned at 5 mm, stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and PAS, and the stained slides were observed under a light microscope.

[0127] b. Genetic testing

[0128] Colon tissue was taken out at -80℃, and RNA was extracted from colon tissue using RNA extraction kit (TAKARA), and RNA concentration and purity were determined. RNA samples were reverse transcribed using TaKaRa kit and manufacturer's instructions. Finally, qPCR kit (Tiangen) and fluorescence quantitative PCR amplification instrument were used. The expression level of each gene was detected.

[0129] (3) Experimental results

[0130] After achieving satisfactory results in the acute ulcerative colitis (UC) model, we continued to evaluate the effect of YG2645 in the chronic UC model to explore its role in different UC disease courses.

[0131] The results showed that YG2645 could significantly reduce the disease activity index (DAI) score and improve the weight loss caused by DSS ( Figure 3 The anatomical results showed that 2.5% DSS intervention could lead to shortening of colon length, while YG2645 intervention significantly improved the shortening of colon caused by DSS ( Figure 3 Histopathological examination further confirmed the efficacy of YG2645.

[0132] HE staining and PAS staining results showed that DSS induced damage to the colonic mucosal epithelial structure, inflammatory infiltration, reduction of basal goblet cells, and edema of the submucosal layer. YG2645 intervention can significantly alleviate intestinal epithelial damage and inflammatory infiltration, and reduce colon tissue pathological damage ( Figure 4 In addition, at the gene level, YG2645 significantly reduced the expression of the pro-inflammatory factor IL-18 and upregulated the expression of the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 ( Figure 4 (Figure C).

[0133] In summary, YG2645 showed good effects in alleviating chronic UC at the phenotypic, pathological and molecular levels. It can effectively improve the shortening of colon length, reduce intestinal tissue damage, and regulate the expression of inflammatory factors, showing its potential in the treatment of chronic UC.

[0161] (3) Results analysis

[0162] The pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) is closely related to four immune cell subsets: Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg. Among them, the enhanced activity of Th1 cells and the involvement of Th2 cells may lead to aggravated intestinal inflammation. IFN-γ and IL-12 produced by Th1 cells can aggravate intestinal inflammation, leading to intestinal mucosal damage and ulcer formation. IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 produced by Th2 cells may promote excessive secretion of intestinal mucus, increase intestinal permeability, and further aggravate the inflammatory response. Th17 cells also play a key role in the inflammatory response. The increase in their number indicates that the inflammatory response is ongoing. IL-17 produced by Th17 cells can recruit and activate inflammatory cells such as neutrophils, leading to worsening intestinal inflammation. In contrast, Treg cells play a regulatory role in the immune system. They secrete cytokines such as IL-10 and TGF-β to inhibit the immune response and prevent excessive inflammation.

[0163] In this study, flow cytometry was used to analyze the effect of inactivated YG2645 on the distribution of immune cell subsets. Figure 5 As shown in Figures AD, inactivated YG2645 significantly downregulated the generation of Th1 and Th17 cells in the intestinal mucosa of mice with DSS-induced colitis, with specific inhibition rates of Th1: 68.58% and Th17: 68.66%, respectively; while it had no significant effect on Th2 and Treg cells.

[0164] These results suggest that YG2645 can effectively improve acute colitis by regulating Th1 and Th17 cell responses. In addition, YG2645 strain is a potential probiotic preparation with economic benefits in the treatment of colitis and deserves further development and research.

[0165] 4.3 Regulatory effect of YG2645 on intestinal flora

[0166] The 16S rRNA gene sequencing technology was used to explore the effect of YG2645 on the intestinal flora of DSS-induced colitis. Figure 6 As shown in Figures B and C, YG2645 increased the number of gut-specific OTUs and improved the Sobs index compared with the DSS group. The Shannon index showed that YG2645 increased the alpha diversity of the intestinal flora. To further understand the role of microbial diversity, beta diversity was analyzed by principal coordinate analysis (PCoA; Bray-Curtis distance). The NC, DSS, and YG2645 groups showed different clustering patterns on the PCoA plot, indicating significant differences among the three groups. YG2645 significantly altered the beta diversity of the intestinal flora ( Figure 6 At the phylum level, compared with the DSS group, YG2645 intervention increased the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, and Proteobacteria, while decreasing the relative abundance of Verrucomicrobia and Bacteroidetes ( Figure 6 At the genus level, YG2645 increased the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Dubosiella, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, Limosilatobacillus, and Ligilactobacillus, and decreased the abundance of harmful bacteria such as Ileibacterium, Alistipes, Helicobacter, Faecalibaculum, and Turicibacter ( Figure 6 Figure E). By analyzing the relationship between changes in intestinal microbial composition and colitis-related indicators, it was found that these beneficial bacteria were negatively correlated with DAI, inflammation score, IL-6, IL-8, IL-18, Th17 and Th1, and positively correlated with colon length and anti-inflammatory factor IL-10. In contrast, the correlation trend between harmful bacteria and colitis-related indicators was the opposite ( Figure 6 (Fig. F).

[0167] 4.4YG2645 alleviates UC by regulating linoleic acid and hyobolic acid

[0168] To further explore the effect of YG2645 on the fecal metabolome of DSS-induced mice, the differences in fecal metabolomes among different groups were analyzed. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) is a supervised machine learning algorithm that can distinguish the overall variability of samples.

[0169] The PLS-DA visualization results showed that the NC, DSS and YG2645 groups showed an obvious clustering trend ( Figure 7Figure A), indicating that YG2645 intervention significantly affected the fecal metabolome of DSS-induced mice. Compared with the ND group, 217 metabolites were increased and 192 metabolites were decreased in the DSS group; while compared with the DSS group, 76 metabolites were increased and 80 metabolites were decreased in the YG2645 group ( Figure 7 Figures B and C).

[0170] In order to analyze the mechanism of sample metabolic changes, metabolic pathway enrichment analysis was performed based on differential metabolites. The results showed that 11 metabolic pathways were significantly enriched in the YG2645 group compared with the DSS group ( Figure 7 In addition, 17 differential metabolites were screened between the two groups (P<0.05, VIP>1), among which the levels of linoleic acid, liquiritigenin, taurocholic acid, hyocholic acid and coumarin increased, while the levels of 12,13-EpOME, docosanedioate, 9R,10S-EpOME and tetrahydrocortisol decreased in the YG2645 group ( Figure 7 By analyzing the relationship between changes in intestinal metabolite composition and the abundance of microbial OTUs, it was found that at the genus level, the contents of linoleic acid, glycyrrhizin, taurocholic acid, and hyocholic acid were significantly positively correlated with Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Bifidobacterium, lactobacillus, Limosilatobacillus, and Ligilactobacillus, but significantly negatively correlated with Ileibacterium, Helicobacter, Faecalibaculum, and Turicibacter ( Figure 7 (Fig. F).

[0171] To explore the mechanism of YG2645 in alleviating colitis in mice, Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between differential bacterial genera, key metabolites and inflammatory indicators. The results showed that linoleic acid and hyobolic acid were significantly positively correlated with Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Limosilatobacillus and Ligilactobacillus, and significantly negatively correlated with Th17, inflammatory score and disease activity index (DAI) ( Figure 7 Therefore, it is inferred that linoleic acid and hyocholic acid may be the key metabolites of YG2645 in alleviating colitis.
