Abstract

Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a major cause of healthcare-associated diarrhea that contributes significantly to global morbidity and mortality. Bacterial virulence factors, mostly toxins, play key roles in CDI pathogenesis. Probiotic supplementation is a potential strategy to reduce the adverse effects of C. difficile and support intestinal homeostasis. This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effects of live Levilactobacillus brevis IBRC-M10790 (LLB) and its membrane vesicles (LBMVs) on apoptosis and inflammation induced by released C. difficile virulence factors in vitro. We employed human colorectal adenocarcinoma Caco-2 and HT-29 cell lines, which are widely used as in vitro models against CDI. Viability and apoptosis of both cell lines were assessed using MTT and Annexin V/PI flow cytometry assays. Anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of LLB and LBMVs were investigated following treatment with cell-free supernatants of toxigenic C. difficile RT001 (Tox-S), as well as the culture filtrates of non-toxigenic C. difficile RT084 and ATCC 700057 strains. The expression of apoptosis-related genes (BAX, BCL-2, Caspase-3, Caspase-9) and inflammatory markers (IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α) was measured by RT-qPCR, and cytokine production was analyzed by ELISA. C. difficile Tox-S and culture filtrate significantly reduced cell viability and increased the expression of apoptotic and proinflammatory markers in Caco-2 and HT-29 cells. LLB and LBMVs effectively modulated cell viability, reduced apoptosis, and downregulated the expression and production of inflammatory cytokines in both cell lines after exposure to C. difficile culture supernatants. These findings suggest that LLB and LBMVs could be exploited as potential supplement to the current treatment strategies against C. difficile-induced cellular injury and inflammation.

摘要

艰难梭菌感染(CDI)是医疗保健相关腹泻的主要原因,对全球发病率和死亡率有重大影响。细菌毒力因子,主要是毒素,在CDI发病机制中起关键作用。补充益生菌是减少艰难梭菌不良反应并维持肠道稳态的一种潜在策略。本研究旨在探讨短乳杆菌IBRC-M10790(LLB)活菌及其膜泡(LBMVs)对体外释放的艰难梭菌毒力因子诱导的细胞凋亡和炎症的抑制作用。我们使用了人结肠腺癌Caco-2和HT-29细胞系,它们被广泛用作抗CDI的体外模型。使用MTT和Annexin V/PI流式细胞术检测这两种细胞系的活力和凋亡情况。在用产毒艰难梭菌RT001(Tox-S)的无细胞上清液以及无毒艰难梭菌RT084和ATCC 700057菌株的培养滤液处理后,研究了LLB和LBMVs的抗炎和抗凋亡作用。通过RT-qPCR检测凋亡相关基因(BAX、BCL-2、Caspase-3、Caspase-9)和炎症标志物(IL-6、IL-8、IL-1β、TNF-α)的表达,并通过ELISA分析细胞因子的产生。艰难梭菌Tox-S和培养滤液显著降低了Caco-2和HT-29细胞的活力,并增加了凋亡和促炎标志物的表达。在暴露于艰难梭菌培养上清液后,LLB和LBMVs有效调节了细胞活力,减少了凋亡,并下调了两种细胞系中炎性细胞因子的表达和产生。这些发现表明,LLB和LBMVs可作为当前抗艰难梭菌诱导的细胞损伤和炎症治疗策略的潜在补充。
