TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of microbiology, in particular to a strain, a culture, a microbial inoculum, a composition, a pharmaceutical composition and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The intestinal tract is the largest micro-ecological environment in the human body, participates in various important physiological processes such as nutrient absorption, energy metabolism, tissue and organ development, immune defense and endocrine regulation, and is closely related to human health. In the past decade, the field of intestinal microecology has developed by leaps and bounds, and human understanding of it has deepened. There are a large number of symbiotic microorganisms in the human intestinal tract, and the total amount of genetic information carried by them is 50-100 times that of the human genome, i.e. the “gut microbiome”, also known as the “second genome” of humans. The gut microbiome is the largest and most direct external environment of the human body, and plays an indispensable role in maintaining human health.
[0003] In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biology, genomics, bioinformatics analysis technology, high-throughput sequencing technology and microbial culture technology, the influence and role of intestinal flora on intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases have become increasingly clear. The intestinal flora is more like an organ with metabolic, immune and endocrine functions, and can affect the human digestive system, circulatory system and nervous system, and is closely related to the occurrence of various chronic diseases (diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and brain disease, etc.) and tumors in humans. Research on the interrelationship between the intestinal flora and human health and disease not only has important scientific research significance, but also has important significance and value in clinical diagnosis, treatment and even transformation.
[0004] Intestinal flora imbalance can increase the incidence of colorectal cancer, and the metabolic products of some intestinal microorganisms can directly slow down the carcinogenic effect or inhibit tumor occurrence. Not only colorectal cancer related to the intestinal tract, but also breast cancer, liver cancer, etc. can be affected by the intestinal flora. More and more evidence shows that intestinal microorganisms can affect tumor formation, tumor development and effectively cooperate with tumor treatment. How to regulate the immune and inflammatory responses caused by the intestinal flora so as to neither induce tumors nor enhance the efficacy of anti-tumor drugs is still under study. If these problems can be solved, it will have great significance for innovation and revolution in the field of tumor treatment in the future. Therefore, the development of new methods for treating diseases needs to explore new bacterial species and strains and the characterization of new functional chemical entities. These will help to accelerate the development of new microbiome-oriented therapies based on new bacterial species and functional chemical substances. SUMMARY

[0148] The concept and the technical effects generated by the present application will be described below in conjunction with the embodiments, so as to fully understand the purpose, features and effects of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0149] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below. The described embodiments are exemplary and are used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0151] In the description of the present application, the description of the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "exemplary embodiment", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present application. In the present specification, the exemplary description of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the described specific features, structures, materials or characteristics can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.
[0152] A first aspect of embodiments of the present application relates to a strain, which is named MNH23031, deposited in the Guangdong Microbial Culture Collection Center (GDMCC), with the deposit name MNH23031, the deposit number GDMCC No: 63077, the deposit date December 23, 2022, and the deposit address 5th Floor, No. 59, Building, Guangzhou Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 100 Moxie Middle Road, Guangzhou, China, and the proposed classification name Lapidilactobacillus sp.
[0153] The term "strain" refers to a member of a bacterial species that has specific genetic characteristics that allow it to be distinguished from closely related members belonging to the same bacterial species. The specific genetic characteristics can be the absence of all or part of at least one gene, the absence of all or part of at least one regulatory region (e.g., a promoter, a terminator, a riboswitch, a ribosome binding site), the presence of at least one recombinant gene, the presence of at least one mutated gene, the presence of at least one exogenous gene (a gene from another species), the presence of at least one non-native plasmid, the presence of at least one antibiotic resistance gene cassette, or a combination thereof. The genetic characteristics of a strain can be identified by PCR amplification, followed by DNA sequencing of the genomic region of interest or the entire genome. In the case where a strain gains or loses antibiotic resistance or gains or loses biosynthetic capabilities (e.g., an auxotrophic strain) compared to another strain of the same species, the strains or nutrients / metabolites can be distinguished by selection or counter-selection using antibiotics.
[0154] It is known in the art that bacterial species can be classified and identified by traditional classification methods and molecular biology methods. Traditional classification methods include, for example, cell morphology observation, Gram staining, flagella staining, various metabolic tests, etc. Molecular biology methods include ribosomal RNA sequence determination methods, whole genome sequencing-based determination methods, etc.
[0155] The strain MNH 23031 involved in embodiments of the present application has the following taxonomic characteristics: inoculated on MPYG solid plate medium, incubated anaerobically at 37°C for 48h, visible colonies were formed, the colonies were round, with regular and smooth edges, translucent, and no exudate was formed around the colonies. The strain MNH 23031 is gram-positive, microscopic morphological observation found that the strain MNH 23031 has no spores, no flagella, non-motile, spherical or short rod-shaped.
[0156] The strain MNH 23031 involved in the embodiments of the present application has a temperature growth range of 30-42°C, and an optimum growth temperature of 37°C. It can grow in a pH range of 5.0-10.0, and has an optimum growth pH of 6.0-8.0. It can tolerate a maximum of 4% NaCl. It is not tolerant to bile salts, and cannot grow when the bile salt concentration is greater than or equal to 0.10%. It can survive for 1h under aerobic conditions, with a survival rate of about 88%, and grows well under anaerobic conditions.
[0157] The antibiotic sensitivity test of the strain MNH 23031 was performed using the paper disc diffusion method. It was shown that the strain MNH 23031 is sensitive to antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, ceftriaxone and penicillin, and is resistant to erythromycin, lincomycin, ampicillin, cotrimoxazole, gentamicin and tetracycline.
[0158] The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the strain MNH 23031 is shown as SEQ ID NO: 1.
[0159] 16S rRNA is a ribosomal RNA of prokaryotes, and the gene encoding 16S rRNA is composed of a variable region and a conserved region. The conserved region is common to all bacteria, while the variable region differs among different bacteria to varying degrees. By comparing the 16S rRNA gene sequences of bacteria, an evolutionary tree can be drawn according to the evolutionary distance based on the sequence difference basis.
[0160] When the identity between the 16S rRNA gene sequences of two strains is lower than 98.65%, it can be judged that they belong to different species (see Kim, M., Oh, H.-S., Park, S.-C., & Chun, J. (2014). Towards a taxonomic coherence between average nucleotide identity and 16S rRNA gene sequences similarity for species demarcation of prokaryotes. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC AND EVOLUTIONARY MICROBIOLOGY, 64(Pt 2), 346-351, and Liu, C., Du, M.-X., Abuduaini, R., Yu, H.-Y., Li, D.-H., Wang, Y.-J., Liu, S.-J. (2021). Enlightening the taxonomy darkness of human gut microbiomes with a cultured biobank. Microbiome, 9(1), p23; Pablo Yarza, Uniting the classification of cultured and uncultured bacteria and archaea using 16S rRNA gene sequences, Microbiology, volume 12, p635-p645, 2014).
[0161] When the identity between the 16S rRNA gene sequences of two strains is lower than 95%, it can be judged that they belong to different genera (“A genus definition for Bacteria and Archaea based on genome relatedness and taxonomic affiliation”, R. A. Barco, bioRxiv (doi: https: / / doi.org / 10.1101 / 392480); Evaluation of 16S rRNA gene sequencing for species and strain-level microbiome analysis, Jethro S. Johnson, Nature Communications 10, Article number: 5029 (2019)).
[0162] To this end, in some embodiments of the present application, there are provided strain variants based on the above 16S rRNA gene sequences, which have at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 98.5%, 98.65%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 100% identity in the 16S rRNA sequence compared to strain MNH23031, and thus are strains of the same species or different species within the same genus as strain MNH23031. It can also be reasonably inferred that these strains of the same species or different species within the same genus have similar biological activities. In other embodiments, the strain variants have at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 98.5%, 98.65%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 100% identity in the 16S rRNA gene sequence with the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1.
[0163] Among them, the "identity" between the sequences of two nucleic acid molecules can be determined using known computer algorithms, such as at least one of the GCG program package, BLASTN or FASTA, and other commercial or publicly available programs can also be, for example, DNAStar "MegAlign" program.
[0164] In addition, with the rapid development of second and third generation sequencing technology, bacterial identification based on whole genome sequencing becomes possible, which makes the bacterial identification results more accurate. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) of bacterial genome refers to the similarity of homologous genes between two bacterial genomes. In the field of bacterial taxonomy, it is generally believed that ANI value needs to reach 98.65% or above to be identified as belonging to the same bacterial species (Kim, M., Oh, H.-S., Park, S.-C., & Chun, J. (2014). Towards a taxonomic coherence between average nucleotide identity and 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity for species demarcation of prokaryotes. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC AND EVOLUTIONARY MICROBIOLOGY, 64(Pt 2), 346-351, and Liu, C., Du, M.-X., Abuduaini, R., Yu, H.-Y., Li, D.-H., Wang, Y.-J., Liu, S.-J. (2021). Enlightening the taxonomy darkness of human gut microbiomes with a cultured biobank. Microbiome, 9(1), P23 pages; Pablo Yarza, Uniting the classification of cultured and uncultured bacteria and archaea using 16S rRNA gene sequences, Microbiology, volume 12, P635-P645 pages, 2014).
[0165] When the identity between the 16S rRNA gene sequences of two strains is less than 95%, it can be judged that they belong to different genera ("A genus definition for Bacteria and Archaea based on genome relatedness and taxonomic affiliation", R. A. Barco, bioRxiv (doi: https: / / doi.org / 10.1101 / 392480); Evaluation of 16S rRNA gene sequencing for species and strain-level microbiome analysis, Jethro S. Johnson, Nature Communications 10, Article number: 5029 (2019)).
[0166] Using the above method, a person skilled in the art can determine whether an isolated strain belongs to the same genus as strain MNH23031 or a new strain of the same species. For example, when the average nucleotide identity ANI value with the strain with accession number GDMCC No: 63077 is at least 95%, 95.5%, 96%, 96.5%, 97%, 97.5%, 98%, 98.5%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 100%, it can be determined to belong to the same genus or the same species or have similar biological activity.
[0167] There are various mature ANI value calculation tools at present, such as local operation software Jspecies ( / jspecies) and Gegenees ( / documentation.html), online calculation tools ANI caculator (http: / enveomics.gatech.edu / ), EzGenome ( / ezgenome / ani) and ANItools. Therefore, the ANI value of the isolated strain and MNH23031 can be calculated by any of the above local operation software or online calculation tools or other tools or methods known in the art.
[0168] To this end, in some embodiments of the present application, provided are strain variants of the above-mentioned genome-based strain MNH23031, which have at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 98.5%, 98.65%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 100% average nucleotide identity to the genome of strain MNH23031 or any of the above-mentioned other strain variants, and thus are strains of the same species or different species within the same genus as strain MNH23031 or any of the above-mentioned other strain variants. It can also be reasonably inferred that these strains of the same species or different species within the same genus have similar biological activities. In addition, it can also be judged by the alignment score of the corresponding genome, for example, variants with an alignment score of at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% compared to strain MNH23031 or any of the above-mentioned other strain variants also have the same or similar biological activities.
[0169] In some embodiments, in combination with the alignment results of 16S rRNA gene sequence and ANI, the variants of the strain have at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 98.5%, 98.65%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 100% identity to the 16S rRNA gene sequence of MNH23031, while having at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 100% average nucleotide identity to the genome of MNH23031.

[0334] Strain MNH23031 modulates the immune activity of macrophages.
[0335] The test method refers to the experimental example 1 in the prior art CN112618576B.
[0336] Test strain: After the glycerol stock tube of MNH23031 strain was thawed at 37℃, it was inoculated on anaerobic blood agar plates under anaerobic conditions for activation. The activated strain was inoculated in MM01 liquid medium, centrifuged after anaerobic culture, and the bacterial sediment was resuspended with appropriate PBS. According to the instructions of LIVE / DEAD BacLight Bacterial Viability Kit kit, MNH23031 bacterial flow counting was performed to obtain a strain sample that met the test requirements.
[0337] THP-1 (Wuhan Punsai Life Science Co., Ltd.) was treated with PMA at a final concentration of 5 ng / mL for 48 hours to differentiate into M0 macrophages.
[0338] Strain MNH23031 was added at a ratio of MOI (viable bacteria number: cell number) = 10:1. At the same time, M1 macrophage control group (M0 macrophages induced by 20 ng / ml IFNγ+10 pg / ml LPS for 24 hours) was set. After 1 hour of culture, mixed antibiotics (1 mg / mL Ampicillin; 5 mg / mL Streptomycin; 1 mg / mL Colistin) were added to kill bacteria, and the culture was continued for 23 hours. The supernatant was collected.
[0339] BD TMCytometric Bead Array (CBA) Human Soluble Protein Master Buffer Kit kit, according to the instructions, the supernatant sample is reacted with the detection protein, and then the concentrations of cytokines IL-10, MIG, IP-10, IL-12 / IL-13P40, IL-6, MCP-1, RANTES, IL-1β, IL-8 and TNF in the supernatant are detected by flow cytometry as shown in Figure 5
[0340] Figure 5 The results of the strain MNH23031 regulating macrophage immune activity are shown in the schematic diagram.
[0341] The results show that after co-culturing macrophages and MNH23031, the macrophages obviously exhibit the characteristics of M1 type macrophage differentiation.

[0343] Strain MNH23031 regulates the immune activity of Primary PBMC.
[0344] The test method refers to the experimental example 2 in the prior art CN112618576B.
[0345] Test strain: After thawing the glycerol stock of MNH23031 strain at 37℃, inoculate it on anaerobic blood agar plates under anaerobic conditions for activation, inoculate the activated strain into MM01 liquid medium, centrifuge after anaerobic culture, resuspend the bacterial precipitate with appropriate PBS, according to the instructions of LIVE / DEAD BacLight Bacterial Viability Kit kit, perform MNH23031 bacterial flow counting, and obtain a strain sample that meets the test requirements.
[0346] Commercially available Primary PBMC (purchased from TPCS, batch number A19Z289100) was used, and after recovery, it was cultured in PRMI1640 complete culture medium (10% heat-inactivated FBS, containing 1% L-glutamine, 0.1% ps (penicillin-streptomycin mixture), 10 mg / mL DNAse, and the function of DNAse is to avoid agglutination).
[0347] Primary PBMCs were co-incubated with MNH 23031 for 24 hours: bacteria were added at an MOI (live bacteria:cells) ratio of 1:1, and a PBS control group was set up (PBS was co-cultured with Primary PBMCs for 24 hours). After anaerobic culture for 1 hour, the bacteria were killed. The culture was continued for 23 hours, and the supernatant was collected.
[0348] Using BD TM The Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) Human Soluble Protein Master Buffer Kit was used to detect the concentrations of cytokines IL-10, MIG, IP-10, IL-12 / IL-13P40, IL-6, MCP-1, RANTES, IL-1β, IFN-γ, IL-8, and TNF in the supernatant using flow cytometry. No results were obtained for IL-10 and IFN-γ. MIG decreased, while IL-12 / IL-13P40, RANTES, and TNF showed no significant changes. Results are as follows. Figure 6 As shown.
[0349] Figure 6 A schematic diagram showing the results of the regulation of the immunomodulatory activity of strain MNH23031 on primary PBMCs is presented.

[0351] Example 4:
[0352] Effects of strain MNH23031 on IFNβ expression.
[0353] Interferon (IFN) receptor proteins are a class of cytokines secreted by host cells that regulate immune responses. Viruses, bacterial endotoxins, and synthetic double-stranded RNA can stimulate interferon production. IFNβ belongs to type I interferon and can promote the activity of NK cells, macrophages, and T lymphocytes, thereby exerting antiviral, antitumor, and immunomodulatory effects. To verify whether MNH23031 can promote IFNβ expression, this study used a pre-constructed THP-1 cell line (a cell line built by Muen Biotech) carrying the IFNβ gene promoter reporter gene (i.e., IFNβ-promoter reporter) to evaluate the effect of MNH23031 on IFNβ transcriptional activity.
[0354] The construction steps of THP-1 cells carrying the IFNβ gene promoter reporter gene include: reporter gene insertion into a vector, vector infection of cells, and screening of a cell line expressing the reporter gene (for details, see the literature: Huashan Du, Tianmin Xu, Manhua Cui“cGAS-STING signaling in cancer immunity and immunotherapy”Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 133 (2021) 110972; Jiang et al.“cGAS-STING, an important pathway in cancer immunotherapy”Journal of Hematology & Oncology (2020) 13:81; Khiem C. Lam et al.“Microbiota triggers STING-type I IFN-dependent monocyte reprogramming of the tumor microenvironment”Cell 184, 5338-5356).
[0355] Preparation of MNH23031 culture supernatant: the strain MNH23031 was inoculated in MM01 liquid medium, and cultured anaerobically at 37°C for 48 hours. The bacterial bodies were removed by centrifugation, and the culture supernatant was filtered with a 0.22 μm filter, then divided and stored at -80°C for later use.
[0356] Control group: DMEM complete medium (10% FBS) containing 10% volume of MM01 bacterial culture medium;
[0357] MSA-2 group: positive control of IFNβ activation (40 μM)
[0358] MNH23031 group: containing 10% volume of MNH23031 bacterial culture supernatant.
[0359] THP-1-IFNβ-promoter reporter cells were inoculated in a 96-well plate at 1×10 5Cells were treated according to the set group. After 24 hours of continuous culture, the cells were centrifuged at 300g for 5 minutes, the culture supernatant was removed, 50 μL of 1x luciferase detection reagent was added, and the reaction was allowed to proceed for 1 minute. The luminescence chemiluminescence value was detected by an enzyme-labeled instrument. The relative fluorescence value (Relative Luminescence) was normalized by the Control group to evaluate the effect of MNH23031 on the transcriptional activity of IFNβ.
[0360] Figure 7 A schematic diagram showing that MNH23031 promotes the transcriptional activity of the IFNβ reporter gene is shown.
[0361] The results of the experiment are shown in Table 1. Figure 7 As shown in Table 1, strain MNH23031 can significantly promote the transcriptional activity of IFNβ. Type I interferon IFNβ has been shown to be able to achieve anti-tumor through immune regulation, and has potential functional effects on anti-viral tumors. Therefore, these results show that strain MNH23031 can achieve anti-tumor through immune regulation, and has potential functional effects on anti-viral tumors.
[0362] The drugs prepared from the Lapidilactobacillus sp. provided by the present application can significantly promote the transcriptional activity of IFNβ. Type I interferon IFNβ has been shown to be able to reestablish the synergy between innate immunity and acquired immunity in the tumor microenvironment, and is used for the treatment of refractory drug-resistant cancer (see "Targeting the tumor Microenvironment with interferon-β Bridges innate and adaptive immune responses, Yang X1, cancer cell, 2014, doi: 10.1016 / j.ccr.2013.12.004."). Therefore, these results show that MNH23031 or the drugs prepared from the strain of Lapidilactobacillus sp. provided by the present application can achieve anti-tumor through immune regulation, and have potential functional effects on anti-viral tumors.
[0363] Example 5:
[0364] Inhibition of histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity by strain MNH23031.
[0365] To verify whether the strain MNH23031 has inhibitory effect on histone deacetylase activity, the HDAC Inhibitor Drug Screening Kit (Fluorometric) purchased from Abeam Company was used to detect the inhibitory effect of the strain MNH23031 on the histone deacetylase activity in vitro.
[0366] Preparation of the culture supernatant of the strain MNH23031: the strain MNH23031 was inoculated in a liquid medium and cultured anaerobically at 37°C for 48 hours, and then centrifuged to remove the bacterial bodies. The culture supernatant was filtered with a 0.22 μM filter, aliquoted, and stored at -80°C until use.
[0367] Preparation of the test samples:
[0368] 1) Control group (Control), the MM01 medium was diluted 10 times with PBS to obtain 10% MM01;
[0369] 2) Positive control group (TSA group), the HDAC inhibitor Trichostatin A (TSA) at a concentration of 10 μM;
[0370] 3) MNH23031 group, the culture supernatant of the strain MNH23031 was diluted 10 times with PBS to obtain the test sample containing 10% bacterial supernatant.
[0371] Preparation of the reagents for the histone deacetylase detection reaction: the detection reaction system was prepared according to the instructions of the kit, and 50 μL of the reaction reagent was required for each reaction.
[0372] Detection of the histone deacetylase activity: 50 μL of the test sample was added to a 96-well white plate, and then 50 μL of the reaction reagent was added, mixed thoroughly, incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes, 10 μL of Lysine Developer was added to the reaction well and mixed thoroughly to terminate the reaction. The plate was incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. Finally, the fluorescence intensity of the sample was detected using an enzyme marker. The enzyme marker was set as Ex. = 350-380 nM and EM. = 440-460 nM. The fluorescence intensity value of the Control was set as 100%, and the fluorescence intensity of the positive control group and the MNH23031 group was divided by the control and multiplied by 100% to obtain the relative histone deacetylase activity.
[0373] The experiment showed that, compared with the histone deacetylase activity of the Control group, the supernatant of the strain MNH23031 had inhibitory effect on the HDAC activity. These results suggest that the strain MNH23031 has potential effects on T cell activation and anti-tumor.

The tumor weight and volume were measured and calculated. Finally, statistical analysis and comparisons were performed on the changes in tumor volume curve, the tumor volume at the endpoint, the tumor weight at the endpoint, and the tumor growth inhibition rate at the endpoint (TGI).
[0383] Tumor growth inhibition rate (TGI) = 1 - (individual tumor volume - individual tumor volume at grouping) / (mean volume of tumors in group A - mean volume of tumors in group A at grouping) × 100%. All data are expressed as mean ± SD. GraphPadPrism 8.0.2 software was used for plotting and statistical analysis. For pairwise comparisons, Student's t-test was used. For two-way analysis, two-way ANOVA combined with Sidak multiple comparisons was used. Significance was indicated by *: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001.

[0409] Verification test of the therapeutic effect of strain MNH23031 on liver cancer tumor.
[0410] To verify whether strain MNH23031 has the effect of treating tumors, a mouse homologous tumor model was used to perform a liver cancer growth inhibition test. The test protocol has been reviewed by the Muen Biological Animal Ethics Committee.
[0411] Test strain: After thawing the glycerol stock of MNH23031 strain at 37°C, inoculate it on anaerobic blood agar plates in an anaerobic workstation for activation. Inoculate the activated strain into MM01 liquid medium and cultivate anaerobically to obtain a sufficient number of live bacteria. Centrifuge the cultured bacterial solution to concentrate it, then resuspend the bacterial bodies with solvent to obtain the test substance with a purity and viable bacterial count (2.0 x 10 9 CFU / mL) meeting the requirements of animal tests.
[0412] Tumor cells: H22 mouse hepatoma cells were purchased from Nanjing Kebai Biological Technology Co., Ltd.
[0413] Test animals: BALB / C mice were used for the test, aged 5-6 weeks, purchased from Guangdong Sijia Jiada Biological Technology Co., Ltd.
[0414] Animal test: normal feeding, after the quarantine period, subcutaneously inoculate H22 hepatoma cells to form an ectopic homologous tumor model, the cell inoculation amount is 2 x 10 5 / mL, 0.1 mL per mouse. When the average tumor volume reaches 80-100 mm 3At the time of tumor volume stratification, the control group-A group (Control) and the test group-B group (MNH23031) were randomly divided, and the C, D, E, and F groups were other test substances. The animals were administered intragastrically on the day of grouping. The control group was given the vehicle, and the B group was given MNH23031 bacteria. The intragastric volume was 0.2 mL per animal per time, and the administration frequency was once a day. During the quarantine period and after administration each day during the administration period, general observations were made once a day. The animals were weighed at the end of the quarantine period, and the animals were weighed each time the tumor diameter was measured after tumor inoculation. The animals were weighed before dissection at the end of the experiment. Day D1 was the day of tumor cell inoculation. During the experiment, general clinical observations were made once a day. The animals were weighed at the end of the quarantine period. The animals were weighed twice a week after tumor inoculation. From the fifth day after tumor inoculation to the day of grouping, the tumor diameter was measured once a day. After grouping, the tumor diameter was measured once every two days. When the average tumor volume of any of the B, C, D, E, or F groups reached or exceeded 1000 mm 3 The tumor diameter was measured once a day.
[0415] When the average tumor volume of any of the B, C, D, E, or F groups reached or exceeded 1000 mm 3 , the average tumor volume of any group was significantly smaller than that of the control group, or the average tumor growth inhibition rate (TGI) of the group reached or exceeded 30%, the experiment was terminated. If the average tumor volume of any group of mice was greater than 2000 mm 3 , the experiment was terminated. After reaching the endpoint of the experiment, all surviving mice were dissected and euthanized.
[0416] After reaching the endpoint of the experiment, all surviving mice were dissected and euthanized, and the tumor weight and tumor volume were measured. Finally, statistical analysis and comparison of tumor volume curve changes (Tumor volume), endpoint tumor volume (Tumor volume at endpoint), endpoint tumor weight (Tumor weight at endpoint), and endpoint tumor growth inhibition rate (Tumor inhibition rate at endpoint, TGI) were performed. The tumor inhibition rate was calculated as follows: (average volume of the control group - volume of the test group) / average volume of the control group x 100%. All data were expressed as mean ± SD, and were plotted and statistically analyzed using GraphPad Prism 8.0.2 software. For pairwise comparisons, the Student's t test was used for analysis. For two-factor investigation, the 2-way ANOVA method was used in combination with Sidak's multiple comparison for analysis. Significant differences were indicated by *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, and ****p < 0.0001.
