Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) is a common side effect during antibiotic treatment, which can cause dysbacteriosis of the gut microbiota. Previous studies have shown beneficial effects in AAD treatment with Bifidobacterium lactis XLTG11, Lactobacillus casei Zhang, plantarum CCFM8661, and rhamnosus Probio-M9. However, no been conducted on immunomodulatory protective intestinal barrier function four complex probiotics. The aim our study to investigate alleviation probiotics ampicillin-induced AAD.Thirty-six BALB/c mice were randomly divided into six groups: normal control group (NC), model (MC), low-, medium-, high-dose groups (LD, MD, HD), positive drug (Bifico, 1 × 107 cfu) (PDC; Bifico, also known as Triple Live Capsule, composed longum, acidophilus, Enterococcus faecalis). An was established by intragastric administration ampicillin, gavage different doses Bifico. weight gain, fecal water content, loose stool grade, permeability, total protein albumin levels, barrier, cytokine microbiota determined.The results showed that significantly decreased ileum tissue damage. Their application increased SIgA, TP, ALB levels. Additionally, levels pro-inflammatory cytokines those anti-inflammatory cytokines. Meanwhile, mRNA expression ZO-1, occludin, claudin-1, MUC2 upregulated probiotic-treated group. Furthermore, diversity modulated changes composition caused ampicillin. At phylum level, abundance Proteobacteria HD lower than MC group, whereas Bacteroidetes higher. genus abundances Klebsiella Parabacteroides lower, Bacteroides, Muribaculaceae, higher Moreover, Spearman's correlation analysis found several specific correlated AAD-related indicators.We improved diarrhea-related indexes, regulated diversity, barrier-related genes, preserved function, relieved inflammation injury, thereby effectively improving AAD-associated symptoms.

Bifidobacterium is a widely distributed commensal bacterial genus that displays beneficial pro-homeostatic and anti-inflammatory immunomodulatory properties. Depletion or absence of in humans model organisms associated with autoimmune responses impaired immune homeostasis. At the cellular level, upregulates suppressive regulatory T cells, maintains intestinal barrier function, modulates dendritic cell macrophage activity, dampens Th2 Th17 programs. While there has been large volume literature characterizing probiotic properties various Bifidobacterial species, likely multifactorial mechanisms underlying these effects remain elusive, particular, its tolerogenic effect. However, recent work shed light on surface structural polysaccharide protein elements, as well metabolic products, mediators This review aims to discuss several utilizes for modulation their indirect impact regulation gut microbiome structure from molecules produced metabolites. These are pertinent an increasingly networked understanding tolerance homeostasis health disease.

In this study, the effectors and mechanisms of Bifidobacterium bifidum FL-276.1 B. FL-228.1 in alleviating dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis were investigated. Both significantly alleviated DSS-induced colitis, whether they supplemented from beginning experiment (whole course intervention) or after DSS induction started (partial intervention). Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (NRF2) pathways activated mice colons, while NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) was downregulated under whole intervention modes. Indole-3-lactic acid, an AHR ligand produced by FL-228.1, could regulate AHR/NRF2/NLRP3 pathway Caco-2 monolayers, thus upregulating tight junction proteins protecting integrity epithelial barrier. These results are conducive to promoting clinical trials product development probiotics for colitis.
