Abstract
This study was done to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of high molecular weight secretions from Limosilactobacillus reuteri PTCC 1655 probiotic bacteria on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-differentiated THP-1 cells. After culturing the bacterium, the crude cell-free supernatant was fractionated on the basis of molecular weights using ultrafiltration. Also, a heat-killed and sonicated fraction was obtained from the biomass of the bacterial culture. All fractions were used to measure their anti-inflammatory effects on PMA-differentiated THP-1 cells following LPS stimulation by quantifying various cellular markers of inflammation. The results demonstrated that various L. reuteri PTCC 1655-derived fractions, especially the >100kDa supernatant fraction decreased some of the inflammatory cytokines and mediators, including tumour necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1, nitric oxide, cyclooxygenase-2, matrix metalloproteinase-9 and interleukin-6, which are critical for the pathogenesis of some inflammatory diseases. It is concluded that the L. reuteri PTCC 1655-derived high molecular weight fractions significantly reduce inflammation and therefore could be appropriate candidates for future medical studies. Providing new insights about the significance of L. reuteri PTCC 1655-derived extracts and their potential to modulate inflammation.
