Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of microorganisms, and particularly relates to Bifidobacterium adolescentis for improving urticaria and Alzheimer's disease, products thereof, and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] The ocean is the largest biosphere on the earth and the largest repository of global species diversity. Marine microorganisms are one of the earliest known sources of marine bioactive substances, including microorganisms such as algae, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. These bioactive substances have important application values in various fields such as food, medicine, and cosmetics.
[0003] Chronic urticaria is manifested as spontaneous wheals or angioedema with a course of more than 6 weeks, often accompanied by severe itching, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Some studies have explored the gut microbiome of patients with chronic urticaria and healthy controls through metagenomic sequencing and targeted metabolomics, and evaluated the differences in functional correlations. The results show that the gut flora of patients with chronic urticaria is significantly different from that of healthy controls, and chronic urticaria is significantly correlated with a decrease in the level of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) producers and an increase in the pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae ( Klebsiella pneumoniae ). After transplanting Klebsiella pneumoniae into the mouse intestine, the allergic reactions of the recipient mice increased, and the blood lipopolysaccharide level increased. Lipopolysaccharide promoted IgE-mediated mast cell degranulation to increase allergic and inflammatory reactions in the body.
[0004] Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important pathogenic bacterium that can cause nosocomial-acquired infections and community-acquired infections, and can trigger diseases such as liver abscess, pneumonia, and bacteremia, seriously threatening human life and health. In recent years, researchers have isolated Klebsiella pneumoniae with high ethanol-producing ability from the feces of patients with auto-brewery syndrome. This bacterium continuously produces alcohol in the human body, causing vasodilation and increased permeability, and causing continuous damage to the liver and intestine. The endogenous alcohol produced by Klebsiella pneumoniae in the intestine reduces the tight junction proteins ZO-1, claudin-1, and claudin-4, the adherens junction proteins β-catenin and E-cadherin, and desmoplakin in intestinal epithelial cells, destroys the integrity of the intestinal barrier, and increases the severity of chronic urticaria. The core of the skin barrier is the brick-wall structure formed by lipids in the stratum corneum. Due to its lipophilicity, alcohol can penetrate and dissolve these lipids, weaken the barrier function, resulting in water loss and infiltration of external irritants. Alcohol may loosen the connections between keratinocytes to accelerate desquamation and reduce the cohesion of keratinocytes.
[0005] Among them, Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia, characterized by impaired cognitive function caused by neurodegeneration, neuronal loss, accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ), and neurofibrillary tangles. Chronic neuroinflammation is considered an important factor in the progression of the disease. It has been found that the incidence of dementia in hospitalized patients infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae increased by 1.7 times and showed a dose-dependent relationship. Klebsiella pneumoniae can migrate from the intestine to the blood and eventually enter the brain. The infection of Klebsiella pneumoniae will exacerbate the neuroinflammation in the brain, causing patients to exhibit symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Certain proteins of Klebsiella pneumoniae (such as OmpA) have a similar structure to Aβ and may trigger an autoimmune response through molecular mimicry, promoting the generation of Aβ or inhibiting its clearance.
[0006] Marine microorganisms have developed complex molecular adaptation capabilities to cope with harsh conditions, affecting their primary and secondary metabolic pathways. This has led to unique physiological characteristics and changes in metabolic processes. Marine microorganisms are more likely than terrestrial microorganisms to synthesize enzymes and secondary metabolites with unique structures. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to provide products related to the marine industry developed using microbial technology. Summary of the Invention

Remove the cell culture medium, wash twice with sterile PBS, then add 1.9 mL of DMEM medium and 100 μL of live bacteria / fermentation products of NHNK-609. Add an equal volume of DMEM medium to the control group. After 3 h of treatment, add 20 μL of Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterial suspension to induce injury and culture at 37 °C under 5% CO2 for 24 h. After the culture is completed, discard the supernatant, wash twice with sterile PBS, then add 1 mL of cell RNA extraction reagent to each well, and extract total RNA according to the reagent instructions and measure the concentration and purity. After extraction, reverse transcribe it into cDNA, and use qPCR to measure the expression levels of ZO-1, OCLD, CLDN5, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β genes. The relative expression fold of the genes in the control group is F = 1, and the F value of each sample is calculated using the 2-ΔΔCT method. The results are shown in the following table: Table 8 Regulation of the expression of genes related to the barrier and inflammation of BEND3 cells induced by Klebsiella pneumoniae by live bacteria of NHNK-622

[0068] 4. NHNK-622 Regulates the Expression of Genes Related to Intestinal Epithelial Cell Barrier and Inflammation Induced by Klebsiella pneumoniae Caco-2 cells were seeded into 6-well cell culture plates at a density of 1×10^6 cells / well and cultured for 12 h until the cells adhered. The cell culture medium was removed, and the cells were washed twice with sterile PBS. Subsequently, 1.9 mL of DMEM medium and 100 μL of live / inactivated NHNK-622 bacteria were added. In the control group, an equal volume of DMEM medium was added. After 3 h of treatment, 20 μL of Klebsiella pneumoniae suspension was added to induce injury, and the cells were cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2 for 24 h. After the culture, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were washed twice with sterile PBS. Then, 1 mL of cell RNA extraction reagent was added to each well, and total RNA was extracted according to the reagent instructions, and the concentration and purity were measured. After extraction, it was reverse transcribed into cDNA, and the expression levels of ZO-1, CLDN4, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β genes were measured by qPCR. The relative expression fold of the genes in the control group was F = 1, and the F values of each sample were calculated using the 2-ΔΔCT method. The results are shown in the following table: Table 10 Regulation of the Expression of Genes Related to Intestinal Epithelial Cell Barrier and Inflammation Induced by Klebsiella pneumoniae by Live NHNK-622
[0069] Table 11 Regulation of the Expression of Genes Related to Intestinal Epithelial Cell Barrier and Inflammation Induced by Klebsiella pneumoniae by Inactivated NHNK-622
[0070] The results showed that NHNK-622 could upregulate the expression of intestinal barrier-related genes ZO-1 and CLDN4 and downregulate the expression of inflammatory factor-related genes TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β. NHNK-622 could reduce intestinal permeability and inflammation caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae, thereby reducing the possibility of Klebsiella pneumoniae entering the circulatory system through the intestine.
