Lacticaseibacillus casei T1 attenuates Helicobacter pylori- induced inflammation and gut microbiota disorders in mice

[摘要] Probiotics are defined as live microbial food elements that are beneficial to human health. Lacticaseibacillus casei T1 was considered to have potential as a bioactive ingredient in functional foods, which was isolated from kurut. Previous research by our group proved that L. casei T1 could prevent inflammatory responses caused by Helicobacter pylori. This study aimed to investigate whether treatment with L. casei T1 resulted in a suppressive effect on H. pylori-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. The results showed that treatment with L. casei T1 could relieve H. pylori-induced overexpression of inflammatory cytokines in GES-1 cells. Experiments in animals suggested that taking long-term L. casei T1 could reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines and improve H. pylori-induced gastric mucosal damage. Furthermore, taking L. casei T1 could increase the relative abundance of beneficial intestinal bacterium (Lachnospiraceae and Odoribacter) of H. pylori-infected mice and help in maintaining the balance of intestinal microflora. Collectively, L. casei T1 had certain degrees of therapeutic effect against H. pylori. In the future, it combined with antibiotics for H. pylori eradication deserves further study.
