Lactobacillus plantarum can exert additional probiotic effects via regulation of human immune system. However, the direct interaction between probiotics
and the receptors of immune cells still needs to be further studied. To identify the receptor of dendritic cells during the
interaction with L. plantarum. Dendritic cells were pretreated with L. plantarum and the antibody to dendritic cells specific intercellular adhesion molecule-grabbing nonintegrin (DC-SIGN), toll like receptor
(TLR)-2 and TLR-4. The maturation of immature dendritic cells, cytokine production, and modulation of T cells were studied
by flow cytometry. Adherence between L. plantarum and dendritic cells were studied by ELISA, flow cytometry, and Western blot. L. plantarum could mature dendritic cells by up-regulating MHC-II and CD80 and CD86. Anti-inflammatory interlectin (IL)-10 and IL-6 was
up-regulated and pro-inflammatory IL-12p70 was retro-regulated by L. plantarum. L. plantarum may interact with DC-SIGN and modulate of T to differentiate into IL-4 producing T cells. The interaction of L. plantarum and DC-SIGN and the biological effects could be blocked by EDTA and antibody to DC-SIGN. Effects of L. plantarum were concentration-dependent. L. plantarum could bind to DC-SIGN to improve DC maturation at different ratios, regulate the secretion of anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory
cytokines, and induce the polarization of interlectin-4-producing T cells. 相似文献

This study reports the effect of heat treating Lactobacillus plantarum L-137 on its in vitro cytokine-inducing activity, on the stability of this activity in simulated digestive juices, and on its in vivo immunomodulatory properties. L-137 cells were harvested at the stationary phase with or without the subsequent heat treatment and then lyophilized. Heat-killed L-137 cells stimulated mouse spleen cells to produce more interleukin-12p40 than unheated L-137. The interleukin-12p40-inducing activity of unheated L-137 was significantly lower when incubated with simulated intestinal juice, but the activity of heat-killed L-137 cells was maintained. Furthermore, heat-killed L-137 was more protective than unheated L-137 in a mouse model of dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis. A heat treatment may therefore be effective for enhancing the immunomodulatory activity of L-137 cells. 相似文献

We have previously reported that heat-killed Lactobacillus plantarum L-137 is a potent inducer of interleukin-12 (IL-12) in vivo as well as in vitro in mice. In order to develop effective usage
of L. plantarum L-137 for tumor immunotherapy, we examined its antitumor effect against DBA/2 mice inoculated with syngenic P388D1 tumor
cells in different treatment schedules. Daily injection of L. plantarum L-137 from the day of tumor inoculation induced a steep increase in plasma IL-12 only after the first injection but not after
subsequent injections, and had no effect on tumor growth and survival time. In contrast, daily injection of L. plantarum L-137 from the 7th day after tumor inoculation exerted a marked antitumor effect but such an effect was not evident in mice
treated with L. plantarum L-137 twice a week from the 7th day. IL-12 production was considerably impaired at the first injection but steeply increased
after the third injection in the mice injected daily with L. plantarum L-137 from the 7th day. Our results suggest that daily administration of L. plantarum L-137 is required to exert an antitumor effect at the late stages of tumor development when IL-12 production is considerably
impaired.

The objective of this study was to investigate the probiotic properties of the fermented vegetable derived lactic acid bacterium, L. plantarum. L. plantarum 10hk2 showed antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria and immunomodulating effects on murine macrophage cell lines. RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with viable cells of this probiotic strain increased the amounts of pro‐inflammatory mediators such as IL‐1β, IL‐6 and TNF‐α, as well as the anti‐inflammatory mediator, IL‐10. ICR mice fed with viable cells of L. plantarum 10hk2 had reduced numbers of enteric Salmonella and Shigella species in comparison to controls from 2 weeks after supplementation, and this effect was observed for up to 4 weeks. The findings of this study suggest that this specific lactic acid bacterial strain, which is derived from vegetable fermentation, holds great promise for use in probiotics and as a food additive since it can reduce the number of some pathogenic bacteria through production of lactic acids. 相似文献

A number of scientific studies have revealed that Lactobacillus strains have beneficial bioactivities in the gastrointestinal tract. In this study, the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the amounts of intracellular calcium, protein kinase C activity, cytochrome c, Bid, Bcl‐2, Bax and the apoptosis‐mediated proteins [caspase‐8, caspase‐3 and poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP)] were evaluated to understand the induction of programmed cell death in HT‐29 cells by Lactobacillus plantarum L67. The results obtained from this study indicated that the relative intensities of the apoptotic‐related factors (intracellular ROS and intracellular calcium) and of apoptotic signals (Bax and t‐Bid) increased with increasing concentrations of the membrane proteins isolated from heat‐killed L. plantarum L67, whereas the relative intensities of cytochrome c, Bcl‐2, caspase‐8, caspase‐3 and PARP decreased. This study determines whether proteins (12 and 15 kDa) isolated from heat‐killed L. plantarum L67 induce programmed cell death in HT‐29 cells. Proteins isolated from L. plantarum L67 can stimulate the apoptotic signals and then consequently induce programmed cell death in HT‐29 cells. The results in this study suggest that the proteins isolated from L. plantarum L67 could be used as an antitumoural agent in probiotics and as a component of supplements or health foods.

Aims: Not all lactic acid bacteria possess the ability to confer health benefits for the host. Thus, it becomes necessary to screen and characterize numerous strains to obtain ideal probiotics. Here, two Lactobacillus plantarum strains (CECT 7315 and CECT 7316) were isolated and characterized. Methods and Results: In vitro and in vivo tests were carried out for demonstrating the abilities as probiotics of CECT 7315/CECT 7316 Lact. plantarum strains. Both strains showed high ability to survive at gastro‐intestinal tract conditions and to adhere to intestinal epithelial cells, as well as great inhibitory activity against a wide range of enteropathogens and ability to induce the production of anti‐inflammatory cytokine IL‐10. Conclusions: Lactobacillus plantarum CECT 7315/CECT 7316 because of their potential probiotic properties could be excellent candidates for being tested in clinical trials aimed to demonstrate beneficial effects on human health. Significance and Impact of the Study: Probiotics are live micro‐organisms that confer a health benefit for the host. However, not all the lactic acid bacteria possess the ability to confer health benefits for the host. In this study, two Lact. plantarum strains (CECT 7315 and CECT 7316) were isolated and characterized to demonstrate their excellent qualities as potential probiotic strains. 相似文献

Aims: The anti‐infectious activity of lactobacilli against multi‐drug resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium DT104 (DT104) was examined in a murine model of an opportunistic antibiotic‐induced infection. Methods and Results: Explosive intestinal growth and subsequent lethal extra‐intestinal translocation after oral infection with DT104 during fosfomycin (FOM) administration was significantly inhibited by continuous oral administration of Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS), which is naturally resistant to FOM, at a dose of 10 8 colony‐forming units per mouse daily to mice. Comparison of the anti‐ Salmonella activity of several Lactobacillus type strains with natural resistance to FOM revealed that Lactobacillus brevis ATCC 14869 T, Lactobacillus plantarum ATCC 14917 T, Lactobacillus reuteri JCM 1112 T, Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC 7469 T and Lactobacillus salivarius ATCC 11741 T conferred no activity even when they obtained the high population levels almost similar to those of the effective strains such as LcS, Lact. casei ATCC 334 T and Lactobacillus zeae ATCC 15820 T. The increase in concentration of organic acids and maintenance of the lower pH in the intestine because of Lactobacillus colonization were correlated with the anti‐infectious activity. Moreover, heat‐killed LcS was not protective against the infection, suggesting that the metabolic activity of lactobacilli is important for the anti‐infectious activity . Conclusion: These results suggest that certain lactobacilli in combination with antibiotics may be useful for prophylaxis against opportunistic intestinal infections by multi‐drug resistant pathogens, such as DT104. Significance and Impact of the Study: Antibiotics such as FOM disrupt the metabolic activity of the intestinal microbiota that produce organic acids, and that only probiotic strains that are metabolically active in vivo should be selected to prevent intestinal infection when used clinically in combination with certain antibiotics. 相似文献

The role of exosomes derived from endothelial cells (ECs) in the progression of atherosclerosis (AS) and inflammation remains largely unexplored. We aimed to investigate whether exosome derived from CD137‐modified ECs (CD137‐Exo) played a major role in AS and to elucidate the potential mechanism underlying the inflammatory effect. Exosomes derived from mouse brain microvascular ECs treated with agonist anti‐CD137 antibody were used to explore the effect of CD137 signalling in AS and inflammation in vitro and vivo. CD137‐Exo efficiently induced the progression of AS in ApoE ?/? mice. CD137‐Exo increased the proportion of Th17 cells both in vitro and vivo. The IL‐6 contained in CD137‐Exo which is regulated by Akt and NF‐КB pathway was verified to activate Th17 cell differentiation. IL‐17 increased apoptosis, inhibited cell viability and improved lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release in ECs subjected to inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The expression of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule1 (sICAM‐1), monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) and E‐selectin in the supernatants of ECs after IL‐17 treatment was dramatically increased. CD137‐Exo promoted the progression of AS and Th17 cell differentiation via NF‐КB pathway mediated IL‐6 expression. This finding provided a potential method to prevent local and peripheral inflammation in AS. 相似文献

BackgroundSpecific strains of Lactobacillus plantarum are marketed as health-promoting probiotics. The role and interplay of cell-wall compounds like wall- and lipo-teichoic acids (WTA and LTA) in bacterial physiology and probiotic-host interactions remain obscure. L. plantarum WCFS1 harbors the genetic potential to switch WTA backbone alditol, providing an opportunity to study the impact of WTA backbone modifications in an isogenic background. ResultsThrough genome mining and mutagenesis we constructed derivatives that synthesize alternative WTA variants. The mutants were shown to completely lack WTA, or produce WTA and LTA that lack D-Ala substitution, or ribitol-backbone WTA instead of the wild-type glycerol-containing backbone. DNA micro-array experiments established that the tarIJKL gene cluster is required for the biosynthesis of this alternative WTA backbone, and suggest ribose and arabinose are precursors thereof. Increased tarIJKL expression was not observed in any of our previously performed DNA microarray experiments, nor in qRT-PCR analyses of L. plantarum grown on various carbon sources, leaving the natural conditions leading to WTA backbone alditol switching, if any, to be identified. Human embryonic kidney NF-κB reporter cells expressing Toll like receptor (TLR)-2/6 were exposed to purified WTAs and/or the TA mutants, indicating that WTA is not directly involved in TLR-2/6 signaling, but attenuates this signaling in a backbone independent manner, likely by affecting the release and exposure of immunomodulatory compounds such as LTA. Moreover, human dendritic cells did not secrete any cytokines when purified WTAs were applied, whereas they secreted drastically decreased levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-12p70 and TNF-α after stimulation with the WTA mutants as compared to the wild-type. ConclusionsThe study presented here correlates structural differences in WTA to their functional characteristics, thereby providing important information aiding to improve our understanding of molecular host-microbe interactions and probiotic functionality. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential of Lactobacillus plantarum CS24.2 to antagonize Escherichia coli adhesion and modulate expression of the responses by HT‐29 cells of inflammatory molecules to E. coli adhesion. Experiments were performed under different adhesion conditions and findings compared with the responses of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Tests of competitive adhesion, adhesion inhibition and displacement assays were performed for lactobacilli ( L. rhamnosus GG and L. plantarum CS24.2) and E. coli O26:H11 to HT‐29 cells. Both the lactobacilli significantly reduced E. coli adhesion to HT‐29 cells ( P < 0.05). The ability of lactobacilli to modulate tumor necrosis factor‐α and interleukin‐8 expression was analyzed in HT‐29 cells stimulated with E. coli using qRT‐PCR. L. plantarum CS24.2 significantly down regulated expression of both the genes induced by E. coli in HT‐29 cells at 6 hr as well as 24 hr, which was more significant than the corresponding findings for L. rhamnosus GG. The present findings suggest that L. plantarum CS24.2 inhibits pathogen adhesion to a similar extent as does the established probiotic strain L. rhamnosus GG. It may also attenuate tumor necrosis factor‐α and interleukin‐8 expression in HT‐29 cells stimulated with E. coli. 相似文献

Two S-layer-expressing strains, Lactobacillus crispatus JCM 5810 and Lactobacillus acidophilus JCM 1132, were assessed for adherence to proteins of the mammalian extracellular matrix. L. crispatus JCM 5810 adhered efficiently to immobilized type IV and I collagens, laminin, and, with a lower affinity, to type V collagen and fibronectin. Strain JCM 1132 did not exhibit detectable adhesiveness. Within the fibronectin molecule, JCM 5810 recognized the 120-kDa cell-binding fragment of the protein, while no bacterial adhesion to the amino-terminal 30-kDa or the gelatin-binding 40-kDa fragment was detected. JCM 5810 but not JCM 1132 also bound (sup125)I-labelled soluble type IV collagen, and this binding was efficiently inhibited by unlabelled type IV and I collagens and less efficiently by type V collagen, but not by laminin or fibronectin. L. crispatus JCM 5810 but not L. acidophilus JCM 1132 also adhered to Matrigel, a reconstituted basement membrane preparation from mouse sarcoma cells, as well as to the extracellular matrix prepared from human Intestine 407 cells. S-layers from both strains were extracted with 2 M guanidine hydrochloride, separated by electrophoresis, and transferred to nitrocellulose sheets. The S-layer protein from JCM 5810 bound (sup125)I-labelled type IV collagen, whereas no binding was seen with the S-layer protein from JCM 1132. Binding of (sup125)I-collagen IV to the JCM 5810 S-layer protein was effectively inhibited by unlabelled type I and IV collagens but not by type V collagen, laminin, or fibronectin. It was concluded that L. crispatus JCM 5810 has the capacity to adhere to human subintestinal extracellular matrix via a collagen-binding S-layer. 相似文献

Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus pentosus grouped into one protein profile cluster at r ≥ 0.70, separate from Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus sake, and Lactobacillus curvatus. Similar sugar fermentation reactions were recorded for representative strains of L. plantarum and L. pentosus. Representative strains, including the type of each species, were selected from the different protein profile clusters and
their genetic relatedness determined by using numerical analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR. The type
strains of L. plantarum (ATCC 14917 T) and L. pentosus (NCFB 363 T) displayed different RAPD profiles and grouped into two independent clusters, well separated from L. casei, L. curvatus, and L. sake. Numerical analysis of RAPD-PCR proved a reliable and accurate method to distinguish between strains of L. plantarum and L. pentosus. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Interleukin (IL)‐12 is a cytokine that can exert regulatory effects on T and NK cells. This study was designed to identify potential developmental and reproductive hazards associated with IL‐12p40 knockout in mice. METHODS: In the combined fertility and teratology study, female F0 C57/BL6 wild‐type control mice and female F0 C57/BL6 IL‐12p40 homozgyous knockout mice were assessed for estrous cyclicity, sperm, and mating parameters. Pregnant females were euthanized on gestation day (GD) 18 and their fetuses were assessed for external, visceral, and skeletal development. In the peri and postnatal development study, the F1 wild‐type control and IL‐12p40 knockout mice were assessed for developmental landmarks, sexual development, passive avoidance, motor activity, and morris water maze. RESULTS: The IL‐12p40 knockout male mice exhibited decreased testis weights when compared to the wild‐type control group; however, this finding was not considered adverse, as it had no apparent functional effects on mating, fertility, and pregnancy rates or sperm motility. The IL‐12p40 knockout group exhibited effects on estrous cycle length, passive avoidance, morris water maze, and motor activity when compared to the wild‐type control group. However, since these findings were small in magnitude, transient and/or had no apparent effects on subsequent growth and development, they were not considered adverse. CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate that although IL‐12p40 homozygous knockout in mice exhibited effects on developmental and reproductive parameters, these effects were relatively minor and were not considered adverse.

Aims: To establish a novel cell surface display system that would enable the display of target proteins on Lactobacillus plantarum. Methods and Results: Blast P analysis of the amino acids sequence data revealed that the N‐terminus of the putative muropeptidase MurO from L. plantarum contained two putative lysin motif (LysM) repeat regions, implying that the MurO was involved in bacterial cell wall binding. To investigate the potential of MurO for surface display, green fluorescent protein (GFP) was fused to MurO at its C‐terminus and the resulting fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli. After being mixed with L. plantarum cells in vitro, GFP was successfully displayed on the surfaces of L. plantarum cells. Increases in the fluorescence intensities of chemically pretreated L. plantarum cells compared to those of nonpretreated cells suggested that the peptidoglycan was the binding ligand for MurO. SDS sensitivity assay showed that the GFP fluorescence intensity was reduced after being treated with SDS. To demonstrate the applicability of the MurO‐mediated surface display system, β‐galactosidase from Bifidobacterium bifidium, in place of GFP, was functionally displayed on the surface of L. plantarum cells via MurO. Conclusions: The MurO was a novel anchor protein for constructing a surface display system for L. plantarum. Significance and Impact of Study: The success in surface display of GFP and β‐galactosidase opened up the feasibility of employing the cell wall anchor of MurO for surface display in L. plantarum. 相似文献

Background: Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species have shown beneficial effects in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection; however, the mechanisms behind such effects are not fully understood. In this study, we have investigated the immunomodulatory effects of probiotics in a mouse model of H. pylori infection. Materials and methods: H. pylori‐infected C57BL/6 mice were treated with L. casei L26, B. lactis B94, or no probiotics for 5 weeks, respectively. Mice not infected with H. pylori were included as normal controls. Gastric histology, protein levels of interleukin (IL)‐1β, IL‐10, IL‐12/23p40, and H. pylori colonization density in the gastric tissues, as well as H. pylori‐specific antibodies were examined. Results: In mice receiving L. casei L26 and B. lactis B94, gastric neutrophil infiltration and IL‐1β were significantly decreased and IL‐10 was significantly increased as compared with mice receiving no probiotics. In mice receiving B. lactis B94, IL‐12/23p40 was significantly increased and H. pylori IgG was significantly reduced as compared with mice receiving no probiotics. No significant difference of H. pylori colonization was observed among the three groups of mice. Conclusion: The reduced level of IL‐1β and neutrophil infiltration observed in mice infected with H. pylori following treatment with L. casei L26 and B. lactis B94 resulted from a modulation of immune response rather than a decrease of H. pylori colonization. Furthermore, B. lactis B94 has the intrinsic ability to promote a Th1 immune response through an increase in IL‐12/IL‐23. 相似文献

Aim: Lactobacillus plantarum AS1 was incubated with HT‐29 adenocarcinoma cell line to assess its adhesion potency and examined for its inhibitory effect on the cell attachment by an enterovirulent bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Methods and Results: Lactobacillus plantarum AS1 attached efficiently to HT‐29 cells as revealed by scanning electron microscopy and bacterial adhesion assay. Lactobacillus plantarum AS1 significantly reduced V. parahaemolyticus attached to HT‐29 cells by competition, exclusion and displacement mode. Lactobacillus plantarum AS1 seems to adhere to human intestinal cells via mechanisms that involve different combinations of carbohydrate and protein factors on the bacteria and eukaryotic cell surface. Conclusion: Strain Lact. plantarum AS1 inhibits the cell attachment of a pathogen V. parahaemolyticus by steric hindrance mechanism. Also, antibacterial factors such as bacteriocins, lactic acid and exopolysaccharides could be involved. Significance and Impact of the Study: The ability to inhibit the adhesion of V. parahaemolyticus to intestinal cell line warrants further investigation to explore the use of probiotic strain Lact. plantarum AS1 in the management of gastroenteritis caused by V. parahaemolyticus. 相似文献

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) concurs with excessive uncontrolled inflammatory immune responses that lead to the loss of immune tolerance. Dendritic cells (DCs) are important and determinant immune cells that regulate immune responses. Tolerogenic DCs with regulatory markers and cytokines could induce regulatory immune cells and responses. Tolerogenic probiotics are capable of producing regulatory DCs from monocytes in in vitro conditions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Lactobacillus rhamnosus on the production of DCs in an in vitro condition. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from the healthy and SLE donors. Monocytes were cultured with optimized concentrations of granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) and interleukin 4 (IL‐4) to produce immature DCs (IDCs). An IDC uptake assay was performed, and IDCs of healthy and SLE donors were divided into three subgroups following 48 hours of treatment with GM‐CSF and IL‐4, along with L. delbrueckii, L. rhamnosus, and mixed probiotics for the production of tolerogenic DCs. The surface expression of Human Leukocyte Antigen‐antigen D Related (HLA‐DR), CD86, CD80, CD83, CD1a, and CD14 was analyzed using flow cytometry, and the gene expression levels of indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO), IL‐10, and IL‐12 were measured using real‐time polymerase chain reaction. We observed significantly reduced expression of costimulatory molecules and other surface markers in the probiotic‐induced mature DCs (MDCs) in both healthy and SLE donor groups in comparison with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced MDCs. In addition, the expression of IDO and IL‐10 increased, whereas IL‐12 decreased significantly in probiotic‐induced MDCs compared with LPS‐induced MDCs. IDCs and especially mature tolerogenic DC of SLE patients highly expressed IDO. The results of the current study suggested that live probiotics could modify properties of DCs to modulatory cells, which might contribute to the induction of tolerance and renovation of immune hemostasis. 相似文献
