Abstract:
An increasing number of studies have shown that Faecalibacterium prausnitzii ( F. prausnitzii ) is a promising anti-inflammatory bacterium that colonizes in the gut and that gut microbiota dysbiosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In this study, we report the gut microbiota profile of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis mice treated with F. prausnitzii and its supernatant on the basis of high-throughput sequencing. We interestingly found that both F. prausnitzii and its metabolites exerted protective effects against colitis in mice, which ameliorated gut dysbiosis, with an increase in bacterial diversity and the abundance of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing bacteria and a decrease in serum TNF-α and the abundance of Proteinbacteria, Acidobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. These findings will provide further evidence of the anti-inflammatory effect of F. prausnitzii , which presents therapeutic potential for IBD treatment.
