Abstract

The eradication of Helicobacter pylori is an urgent global issue. However, the traditional regimens have several limitations. Thus, we propose the idea of treating bacterial gastric disease with the objective of eliminating gastric pathogenic bacteria and enhancing gastroprotective effects using gastric probiotics. In this study, a total of 12 Lactobacillus strains were isolated from the gastric mucosa of healthy donors. After evaluation using a weight scoring system, Lactobacillus paragasseri strain LPG-9 was identified as the most promising probiotic for gastric disease, with the highest acid-resistance and the best adhesion characteristics. Gastric colonisation, H. pylori inhibition, anti-inflammatory, and gastric homeostasis effects of LPG-9 were confirmed in C57BL/6 mice. Finally, a safety evaluation and whole-genome sequencing were performed. Based on the results of this study, LPG-9 originates from the gastric microbiota and is a promising probiotic for gastric disease, particularly H. pylori-induced gastritis, providing a solution to this global issue.
