Long-term feeding of a high-fat diet (HFD) induces endotoxemia and gastrointestinal inflammation by disturbing gut microbiota composition and membrane permeability, resulting in the acceleration of obesity. Some probiotics exhibit anti-inflammatory effects in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, we hypothesized that anti-inflammatory probiotics could lead to the simultaneous attenuation of endotoxemia, liver steatosis, obesity, and colitis in mice with HFD-induced obesity. Herein, we examined whether Lactobacillus plantarum LC27 and/or Bifidobacterium longum LC, which significantly suppressed NF-κB activation in lipopolysaccharide- or fecal lysate-stimulated Caco-2 cells, could simultaneously alleviate liver steatosis and colitis in mice with HFD-induced obesity. Oral administration of LC27, LC67, or their (3:1) mixture (LM) reduced HFD-induced aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and lipopolysaccharide levels in the blood and liver. Their treatments also suppressed HFD-induced NF-κB activation and increased AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation and claudin-1 and occludin expression in the liver and colon. Moreover, LC27, LC67, or LM treatment reduced HFD-induced Firmicutes and Proteobacteria populations in gut microbiota and fecal lipopolysaccharide production. The hypothesis was supported by the findings that anti-inflammatory LC27 and/or LC67 simultaneously alleviated liver steatosis, obesity, and colitis by regulating NF-κB and AMPK activation through the inhibition of gut microbiota lipopolysaccharide production.
长期高脂饮食(HFD)喂养通过扰乱肠道微生物群落组成和膜通透性引起内毒素血症和胃肠道炎症,从而加速肥胖。一些益生菌在体外和体内具有抗炎作用。因此,我们假设抗炎益生菌可以同时减轻 HFD 诱导肥胖小鼠的内毒素血症、肝脂肪变性、肥胖和结肠炎。在此,我们研究了在脂多糖或粪便裂解物刺激的 Caco-2 细胞中显著抑制 NF-κB 激活的植物乳杆菌 LC27 和/或长双歧杆菌 LC 是否可以同时减轻 HFD 诱导肥胖小鼠的肝脂肪变性和结肠炎。LC27、LC67 或它们的(3:1)混合物(LM)的口服给药降低了 HFD 诱导的血液和肝脏中的天冬氨酸转氨酶、丙氨酸转氨酶、甘油三酯、总胆固醇和内毒素水平。它们的治疗还抑制了 HFD 诱导的 NF-κB 激活,并增加了肝脏和结肠中的 AMP 激活蛋白激酶(AMPK)激活和 Claudin-1 和 Occludin 表达。此外,LC27、LC67 或 LM 处理降低了 HFD 诱导的肠道微生物群中的厚壁菌门和变形菌门种群和粪便内毒素的产生。抗炎 LC27 和/或 LC67 通过抑制肠道微生物群内毒素的产生来调节 NF-κB 和 AMPK 激活,从而同时减轻肝脂肪变性、肥胖和结肠炎,这一假设得到了支持。
