Abstract

Colonization and development of gut microbiota during early life stage plays a key regulatory role in the establishment of the host-microbial relationship, which was conducive to progressing host immunity and maintaining health throughout the adulthood life span. This study was aimed to evaluate the protective effect from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in adulthood based on the early intervention of Lactobacillus paracasei N1115 (LP N1115). LP N1115 treatment was carried out during 2 weeks in postnatal mice. Then the dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)-induced colitis model mice were established in adulthood, and the status of intestinal tissues was detected. Results showed the decreased severity of intestinal tissue injury, cell apoptosis, and proinflammatory cytokines expression in DSS-induced model with LP N1115 early intervention. Therefore, the intake of LP N1115 in neonatal mice has played a long-term healthy role in the prevention of intestinal injury and inflammation in adulthood.

Keywords: Lactobacillus paracasei N1115; colitis model; dextran sodium sulphate; intestinal injury; probiotic; proinflammatory cytokine.
