Metabolites 13,14-Dihydro-15-keto-PGE2 Participates in Bifidobacterium animalis F1-7 to Alleviate Opioid-Induced Constipation by 5-HT Pathway.

Abstract

People suffer from constipation caused by many factors, including constipation (Opioid-Induced Constipation, OIC) during analgesic treatment. Microorganisms may be a potent solution to this problem, but the mechanism is still unclear. Based on models in vivo and in vitro, the potential mechanism involving Bifidobacterium animalis F1-7 (B. animalis F1-7), screened in the previous studies, is explored through non-targeted metabonomics, electrophysiological experiment and molecular level docking. The results showed that B. animalis F1-7 effectively alleviates OIC and promotes the expression of chromogranin A (CGA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). The metabolite 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGE2 related to B. animalis F1-7 is found, which has a potential improvement effect on OIC at 20mg kg BW-1 in vivo. At 30ng mL-1 it effectively stimulates secretion of CGA/5-HT (408.95± 1.18ngmL-1 ) by PC-12 cells and changes the membrane potential potassium ion current without affecting the sodium ion current in vitro. It upregulates the target of free fatty acid receptor-4 protein(FFAR4/β-actin, 0.81± 0.02). The results demonstrate that metabolite 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGE2 participated in B. animalis F1-7 to alleviate OIC via the 5-HT pathway.
