Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microbial culture, and relates to a probiotic agent for regulating intestinal environment and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] A wide variety of microorganisms live in the gastrointestinal tract of healthy people. These microorganisms are called intestinal flora. Intestinal flora is composed in a certain proportion, and each bacteria restricts and depends on each other, forming an ecological balance in quality and quantity. However, once the internal and external environment of the body changes, such as changes in diet, use of antibiotics, age changes, intestinal immune dysfunction, etc., sensitive intestinal bacteria are suppressed, and the unsuppressed bacteria take the opportunity to multiply, thus causing flora imbalance and causing constipation symptoms.

[0003] Probiotics are defined as "live microorganisms" that, when ingested in sufficient quantities, have a health impact on the host. The intestine is the most important organ for the digestion and absorption of nutrients in humans and other animals, and its health determines the overall health of the body. Bifidobacterium ) is one of the dominant bacteria in the intestines of humans and many mammals, and plays an important role in the body's nutrition and prevention of intestinal diseases. For example: Animal Bifidobacterium can quickly colonize in the intestinal mucosa, forming a barrier of beneficial bacteria, densely covering the intestinal mucosa to form a biofilm, making it impossible for pathogenic bacteria to colonize; it can also produce acetic acid and lactic acid to regulate the pH value of the intestinal environment and inhibit saprophytic bacteria; it produces bacteriocin-like proteins, which have a certain bactericidal effect; Animal Bifidobacterium can decompose coupled bile acids into free bile acids, which have a stronger inhibitory effect on bacteria. It can be seen that Animal Bifidobacterium is an important physiological bacteria in the intestines of humans and animals, participating in a series of physiological processes such as immunity, nutrition, digestion and protection, and playing an important role.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a microbial preparation product containing probiotics that can effectively regulate the intestinal microecological environment and promote intestinal health. Summary of the invention

[0029] The preparation method of bacterial suspension and bacterial powder involved below is: after activating the strain, inoculate it into culture medium for cultivation to obtain culture solution; centrifuge the culture solution, resuspend the bacteria to obtain bacterial suspension, or further add protective agent for freeze drying to obtain freeze-dried bacterial powder product.

[0030] The MTL, GAS, VIP, SS and ELISA kits mentioned below were purchased from Nanjing Herb Source Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Example 1

[0031] In this example, a strain of Bifidobacterium animalis lactis subsp. lactis that regulates the intestinal environment was isolated and screened, and the steps were as follows: (1) Select samples separated from milk base, dilute them 10 times with 0.9% saline, dilute them 3 times, spread them on solid culture medium, culture them at 37℃ for 48 hours, pick out single colonies with different morphology and color, draw three lines in MRS culture medium, invert the plate, and culture them anaerobically at 37℃ for 48 hours. Pick out single colonies purified twice, expand them with liquid culture medium at 37℃, preserve them with 35% glycerol, and freeze them in a -80℃ refrigerator. Example 2

[0032] In this example, the strains screened in Example 1 were subjected to morphological identification and 16S rRNA molecular biological identification, and the steps were as follows: (1) Morphological identification: The strain was inoculated into TPY medium, cultured anaerobically at 37°C for 48 h, and then observed under a microscope. After smear and Gram staining, it was observed that the Gram staining was positive, the strain was short rod-shaped, milky white, with semicircular protrusions, smooth and moist surface, and neatly edged colonies.

[0033] (2) 16S rRNA molecular biological identification: The strain stored at -80℃ was taken out and inoculated into a centrifuge tube containing 20mL TPY liquid medium at a ratio of 2% (v / v). After culturing at 37℃ for 24 hours, it was centrifuged and centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 10 minutes. The supernatant was removed and the bacteria were collected. The genome of the strain was extracted, and bacterial universal primers were added for PCR amplification. The amplified product was sent to a sequencing company for sequencing identification. The strain was sequenced and analyzed, and its 16S rRNA sequence was shown in SEQ ID No: 1. The sequence obtained by sequencing was compared with the nucleic acid sequence in GeneBank, and the results showed that the strain was animal Bifidobacterium lactis subsp.

[0034] SEQ ID No: 1:

[0035] Based on the results of 16S rRNA molecular biological identification and morphological identification in Example 2, it was confirmed that the strain belonged to Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis and was named Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis , C-1 strain.

[0036] Test Example 1 This test example tests the acid resistance of strain C-1. The specific steps are as follows: Activation of strains: The strain was inoculated into MRS liquid culture medium at an inoculum size of 4% (v / v), and cultured anaerobically at 37°C for 48 h to obtain C-1 seed solution.

[0037] The C-1 seed solution was inoculated at a 4% inoculation rate (v / v) into MRS liquid culture medium with a pH of 4.0, and incubated in a 37°C incubator for 4 h. Samples were taken for live bacteria count (N1), and the 0 h measurement value was used as the blank control (N0). The strain survival rate was as high as 54%, indicating that this strain had good acid resistance.

[0038] Strain survival rate (%) = N1 / N0×100% Among them, N1 represents the number of viable bacteria in the strain system after treatment, CFU / mL; N0 represents the initial number of viable bacteria in the strain system, that is, the number of viable bacteria measured at 0 h, CFU / mL.

[0039] Test Example 2 This test case explores the effects of the C-1 strain on various indicators of mice with intestinal environmental imbalance (constipation). The specific steps are as follows: (1) Experimental animals: 6-week-old SPF male BALB / c mice, weighing 19±1g, housed in a temperature of 25°C, humidity of 50%, and lighting for 12 h. They were fed with a basic mouse diet for one week (free access to food and water).

[0040] (2) Intervention methods: During the experiment, mice in each group had free access to food and water.

[0041] After one week of adaptive feeding, 64 mice were randomly selected and given loperamide hydrochloride by gavage at 20 mg / kg for one week to establish a constipation model. The mice were randomly divided into 8 groups: S1 group (C-1 bacterial suspension), S2 group (CKCC 1913 bacterial suspension), S3 group (C-1 bacterial suspension + CKCC 1913 bacterial suspension, the ratio of live bacteria was 10:1), S4 group (C-1 bacterial suspension + CKCC 1913 bacterial suspension, the ratio of live bacteria was 1:1), S5 group (C-1 bacterial suspension + CKCC 1913 bacterial suspension, the ratio of live bacteria was 1:10), S6 group (CICC 24210 bacterial suspension + CKCC1913 bacterial suspension, the ratio of live bacteria was 10:1), and S7 group was the positive control group (1 g / ml lactulose oral solution), S8 group was the model group (normal saline), S9 group was the blank group (normal mice without modeling, normal saline), each group had 8 mice, and the total viable bacteria in each group of S1-S6 was 1×10 9 CFU / mL. Each group of mice was gavaged once a day, and the gavage volume of each bacterial suspension / lactulose oral solution / normal saline was 0.2 mL. The experiment lasted for 4 weeks, with the first week being adaptive feeding and the following three weeks being gavage treatment.

[0042] (3) Detection and analysis of relevant indicators (a) Fecal water content On the 14th and 28th days of the experiment, the mice were transferred to clean empty cages and fecal samples were collected for 3 hours. The number of fecal particles of each mouse was recorded during the collection period, and the feces were placed in EP tubes to weigh the wet weight and dry weight, and the fecal water content was determined. The fecal water content was calculated using the following formula. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 1 shown.

[0043] Fecal moisture content (%) = (fecal wet weight - fecal dry weight) / fecal wet weight × 100% Fecal water content is one of the important indicators reflecting the degree of constipation. It is also determined by measuring the fecal water content to determine whether the model is successful. Therefore, this experiment measured the fecal water content on the 14th day of the mouse experiment (the 7th day of gavage). As shown in the figure, the water content of the model group mice was significantly reduced compared with the normal unmodeled mice in the blank group. It shows that after gavage with loperamide hydrochloride, the water content of the mouse feces decreased, indicating that the model group mice had dry and hard feces, and the constipation model was successfully established. Both C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains can increase the water content of mouse feces and improve constipation symptoms, and the C-1 bacterial suspension has the best effect. In addition, it was unexpectedly found that when the C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains were used in combination, the effect of improving the constipation symptoms of mice was better.

[0044] (b) Time of first black stool excretion, small intestinal transit rate and number of fecal particles in constipated mice Determination of the time of first black stool discharge: After the fourth week of the experiment, each group of mice was orally infused with 0.2 mL of 20% ink suspension and placed in a clean cage. This time was recorded as the start time. After the mouse discharged the first black stool, the corresponding time was recorded as the end time. The interval between the two times was the time of first black stool discharge. Determination of small intestinal transit rate: After the fourth week of the experiment, the mice were fasted overnight but not watered. They were gavaged with 20% ink for 30 minutes and immediately killed by cervical dislocation. The killed mice were placed supinely on a wooden board and fixed with nails. The stomach was found in the upper left abdominal cavity of the mouse, the gastroesophageal connection was cut at the pyloric opening, the intestines were separated, and the connection between the small intestine and the colon was cut. The separated intestinal tube was placed on a tray, and the small intestine was gently pulled into a straight line. The length of the intestinal tube was measured as the "total length of the small intestine", and the length from the pylorus to the front of the ink was the "small intestinal transit rate". The ink transit rate was calculated according to the following formula.

[0045] Small intestinal transit rate (%) = ink propulsion length (cm) / total small intestinal length (cm) × 100% The above test and calculation results are as follows Figure 2 As shown; Determination of fecal pellet number: After the fourth week of the experiment, each group of mice was placed in a cage, and feces were collected for 5 hours. The number of fecal pellets of each mouse was recorded, which was the 5-hour fecal pellet number. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0046] Table 1

[0047] Through Table 1 and Figure 2 The relevant test results show that the time of first black stool discharge of S8 (model group) mice was significantly longer than that of S9 (control group), and the small intestinal transit rate was significantly reduced. The number of feces, that is, the number of defecation, is an important indicator of the health of an individual's digestive system. Less feces discharge is an important manifestation of constipation. The feces discharge of S8 (model group) mice was significantly lower than that of S9 (control group), indicating that the constipation mouse model was successfully constructed.

[0048] Both C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains can shorten the time of first black stool excretion and increase small intestinal transit rate and stool volume after oral gavage, and C-1 bacterial suspension has the best effect. In addition, it was unexpectedly found that the combined use of C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains can promote intestinal peristalsis and improve constipation symptoms in mice.

[0049] (c) Analysis of gastrointestinal regulatory peptide levels After the fourth week of the experiment, the mice were killed, blood was collected from the eyeballs, and the blood samples were allowed to stand for 30 min before centrifugation to collect serum samples.

[0050] ELISA kits were used to determine the levels of gastrointestinal regulatory peptides in serum, including excitatory gastrointestinal regulatory peptides motilin (MTL) and gastrin (GAS) and inhibitory gastrointestinal regulatory peptides vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and somatostatin (SS). The test method was referred to the instructions of the kit. The results were as follows: Figure 3 shown.

[0051] From the statistical results in the figure, we can see that the levels of excitatory neurotransmitters (MTL and GAS) in the serum of S8 (model group) mice were significantly decreased compared with those of S9 (control group), and the levels of inhibitory neurotransmitters (VIP and SS) were significantly increased, indicating that loperamide hydrochloride has an inhibitory effect on MTL and GAS of constipated mice, and a promoting effect on VIP and SS. It can be seen that constipation can lead to changes in gastrointestinal active peptides, inhibit the movement of intestinal muscles, and thus weaken the intestinal peristalsis ability.

[0052] In the groups treated with C-1 and CKCC 1913 bacterial suspensions, the levels of various gastrointestinal regulation-related peptides in mouse serum were effectively improved, and the effect of C-1 bacterial suspension was the best. In addition, it was unexpectedly found that when C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains were used in combination, the improvement effect of related peptide index levels was better.

[0053] (d) Analysis of short-chain fatty acid content In the fourth week of the experiment, the feces of mice in each group were collected, and the content of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the feces of mice was quantitatively analyzed by gas chromatography (GC). 20 mg of fecal samples from each group of mice were accurately weighed into a centrifuge tube, immersed in a saturated NaCl solution, and mashed until there were no obvious lumps. 20 μL of 10% H2SO4 solution was added for acidification, and then 500 μL of anhydrous ether was added for extraction. The extracted mixture was centrifuged at 18000 g for 10 min, and the supernatant was transferred to a centrifuge tube containing 0.25 g of anhydrous Na2SO4 for drying; after standing for 30 min, it was centrifuged at 12000 g for 5 min, and the upper ether phase was transferred to a sample bottle for quantitative analysis. The results are as follows: Figure 4 shown.

[0054] From the quantitative statistical results in the figure, we can see that the contents of acetic acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, butyric acid, isovaleric acid and valeric acid in the feces of S8 (model group) mice were significantly lower than those of S9 (control group). In the groups treated with C-1 bacteria and CKCC 1913 strain bacterial suspensions, the contents of various short-chain fatty acids in the feces of mice were increased to varying degrees, and the C-1 bacterial suspension had the best improvement effect. In addition, it was unexpectedly found that when C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains were used in combination, the improvement effect of relevant indicators was better.

[0055] (e) Histopathological observation of colon sections At the end of the fourth week of the experiment, the mice were killed, and the colon tissues of the mice in the S1, S7, S8 and S9 groups were collected, rinsed with normal saline, and fixed overnight in a 10% paraformaldehyde solution. Paraffin sections were made using paraffin embedding technology, and hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed after xylene dewaxing. The pathological changes of colon sections were observed under an optical microscope. The results are as follows: Figure 5 shown.

[0056] The staining results in the figure show that the colon tissue of mice in S9 (control group) is normal, the colon wall is intact, the crypts are normally differentiated, and the goblet cells are neatly arranged without damage or wrinkles; the goblet cells in S8 (model group) are incomplete, the colon wall is damaged, and the thickness of the mucosal muscular layer is thinner; intervention with C-1 bacterial suspension can effectively alleviate constipation-induced damage and increase the thickness of the colon mucosa.

[0057] (f) Analysis of protein expression levels in colon tissue At the end of the fourth week of the experiment, the mice were killed, and the colon tissues of each group of mice were collected. The RNA in the mouse colon tissues was extracted according to the instructions of the RNA Easy Fast Animal Tissue / Cell RNA Extraction Kit. After reverse transcription into cDNA using a reverse transcription (ABScriptIII RT Master Mix for qPCR) kit, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was performed using a kit (2X Universal SYBRGreen Fast qPCR Mix) to analyze the expression levels of mucin-2 (MUC-2), zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), tight junction protein-1 (Claudin-1), and occudin. The results are shown in Figure 2. Figure 6 shown.

[0058] From the statistical results of the tests in the figure, we can see that the expression levels of mucin, zonula occludens, tight junction proteins and occludens in the colon of S8 (model group) mice were significantly reduced. The intestinal mucosal layer was destroyed due to constipation, which led to an inflammatory response. The inflammatory response affected the related proteins between epithelial cells, thereby changing the permeability of the intestine. In the groups treated with C-1 bacteria and CKCC 1913 strain bacterial suspensions, the expression of the four proteins showed an upward trend to varying degrees, and the C-1 bacterial suspension had the best improvement effect. In addition, it was unexpectedly found that when C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains were used in combination, the improvement effect of related indicators was better.

[0059] (g) Analysis of inflammatory marker levels Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR analysis was used to detect inflammatory factors in colon tissue, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-10 (IL-10); ELISA kits were used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in mouse serum; The above test results are as follows Figure 7 shown.

[0060] IL-1β and TNF-α are two highly effective inflammatory factors that play an important role in inflammatory responses. IL-1β can guide inflammatory cells into the lesion site, promote the expression of vascular leukocyte adhesion molecules, and cause inflammatory responses; TNF-α mainly induces multiple cells to produce other inflammatory factors in the early stages of inflammation, producing important synergistic effects; IL-10 is a multi-cell-derived, multifunctional cytokine that plays an important regulatory role in the immune system. It can regulate cell growth and differentiation and participate in inflammatory and immune responses.

[0061] The statistical results in the figure show that the relative expression of IL-1β and TNF-α in the colon tissue and serum of S8 (model group) mice increased significantly compared with S9 (control group), while the relative expression level of the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 decreased significantly, indicating that the intestinal environment of constipated mice was unbalanced and produced an inflammatory response. After oral administration of C-1 bacteria and CKCC 1913 strains, the relative expression of IL-1β and TNF-α in the colon can be reduced to varying degrees, and the relative expression of IL-10 can be increased, reducing the damage of inflammatory cells to intestinal tissue, and the C-1 bacterial suspension has the best effect. In addition, it was unexpectedly found that the combined use of C-1 and CKCC 1913 strains can reduce the release of inflammatory factors in the intestine and have a better effect in alleviating intestinal damage.
