METHODS： Female Wistar rats （180-200 g） were used in this study. A group of rats were administered orally the probiotic L. salivarius ssp. salivarius （5 × 10^8 CFU suspended in 0.5 mL of skimmed milk） daily for 3 wk. Two additional groups were used for reference, a non-colitic and a control colitic without probiotic treatment, which received orally the vehicle used to administer the probiotic. Two weeks after starting the experiment, the rats were rendered colitic by intracolonic administration of 10 mg of TNBS dissolved in 0.25 mL of 500 mL/L ethanol. One week after colitis induction, all animals were killed and colonic damage was evaluated both histologically and biochemically. The biochemical studies performed in colonic homogenates include determination of myeloperoxidase （MPO） activity, glutathione （GSH） content, leukotriene B4 （LTB4） and tumor necrosis factor α （TNF-α） levels, as well as inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） expression. In addition, the luminal contents obtained from colonic samples were used for microbiological studies, in order to determine Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria counts. RESULTS： Treatment of colitic rats with L. salivarius ssp. salivarius resulted in amelioration of the inflammatory response in colitic rats, when compared with the corresponding control group without probiotic treatment. This antiinflammatory effect was evidenced macroscopically by a significant reduction in the extent of colonic necrosis and/or inflammation induced by the administration of TNBS/ethanol （2.3±0.4 cm vs3.4±0.3 cm in control group, P〈0.01） and histologically by improvement of the colonic architecture associated with a reduction in the neutrophil infiltrate in comparison with non-treated colitic rats. The latter was confirmed biochemically by a significant reduction of colonic MPO activ展开更多

Primary isolation of microorganisms of interest was carried out at Cheznik Diagnostic and Research laboratories while animal preparation and treatment were carried out at Animal Farm, Mgbakwu Awka. Twenty wistar rats were used as the test animals and another twenty for positive control. The animals in the test group were induced to diarrhea using 1 ml of castor oil following 12-hour fasting while the control group was fed with daily feed and distilled water. The test animals upon production of diarrhoeic stool were fed with 1 × 10<sup>9</sup> cfu/ml (410 mg/dl w/v) of the Lactobacillus sp isolate in distilled water. The diarrhoea was resolved within 24 hours of treatment. The average weights of the animals taken just after preparation and early treatment (T<sub>x</sub>) showed appreciable loss in weight among the test animals possibly due to stress compared to initial weight at T<sub>0</sub>. However, upon continued treatment with the isolate, obvious weight gain (Tf) compared to T<sub>x</sub> was observed. The results of the haematological data at the final analysis showed proximal values and consistency to that of the control group following administration of the Lactobacillus sp isolate. The routine general health data of the test animals showed marked improvement upon treatment with the isolate. A test of significance at 0.05 showed a positive agreement (p Lactobacillus sp showed marked sensitivity to erythromycin, ceftazidine, and chloromphenicol antimicrobial drugs just like other known probiotic strains. No known health hazard or death was recorded. From the study, it was observed that saliva can also proffer a good site in addition to the gut and ileum for the isolation of probiotic microorganisms. It has also shown that the pres展开更多

This study was the first time to investigate the effects of S. salivarius K12 on ligature-induced periodontitis in mice. Methods: A silk ligature was tied around the second left maxillary molar to establish the model of periodontitis, and then, mice in group S. salivarius K12 were administered with S. salivarius K12 (2 x 109 CFU) twice daily for 30 d, the others were treated with isopyknic water. Results: Administration with S. salivarius K12 markedly decreased the anaerobic bacteria accumulation on the teeth, and it also considerably alleviated periodontitis-induced alveolar bone resorption and attachment loss. Moreover, S. salivarius K12 administration increased the relative species abundance of Gram-positive bacterium in oral cavity while decreased Gram-negative bacterium, as well as the diversity of the bacterial community. Conclusion: Oral administration of the probiotic S. salivarius K12 may mitigate the alveolar bone resorption and attachment loss of periodontitis by modulating the oral microbiota.展开更多
