Abstract:
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic intestinal inflammation that is currently incurable. Increasing evidence indicates that supplementation with probiotics could improve the symptoms of IBD. It is scientifically significant to identify novel and valid strains for treating IBD. It has been reported that the probiotic Lactobacillus paracasei L9 (L9), which is identified from the gut of healthy centenarians, can modulate host immunity and plays an anti-allergic role. Here, we demonstrated that L9 alleviates the pathological phenotypes of experimental colitis by expanding the abundance of butyrate-producing bacteria. Oral administration of sodium butyrate in experimental colitis recapitulates the L9 anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Mechanistically, sodium butyrate ameliorated the inflammatory responses by inhibiting the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway in colitis. Overall, these findings demonstrated that L9 alleviates the DSS-induced colitis development by enhancing the abundance of butyrate-producing bacterial strains that produce butyrate to suppress the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway, providing new insight into a promising therapeutic target for the remission of IBD.
