The correlation between the gut microbiota and airway inflammation in childhood allergic rhinitis (AR), particularly concerning allergen exposure, remains insufficiently explored. This study aimed to link gut microbiota changes with house dust mite (HDM)-specific IgE responses in pediatric AR. Using metagenomic shotgun sequencing, we compared the fecal microbiota of 60 children with HDM-AR to 48 healthy controls (HC), analyzing the link to IgE reactions. We examined the effects of oral Escherichia (E.) fergusonii treatment in mice sensitized with ovalbumin and HDM on allergic symptoms, mucosal cell infiltration, Th1/Th2/Tregs balance in the spleen, serum cytokine levels, and E. fergusonii presence in feces. Children with HDM-AR have a less diverse gut microbiome and lower levels of E. fergusonii compared to controls, with a negative correlation between E. fergusonii abundance and HDM-specific IgE levels. In mice sensitized with OVA and HDM, oral administration of E. fergusonii improved allergic symptoms, reduced nasal eosinophils/mast cells infiltration and adjusted Th cell populations towards a non-allergic profile in splenic lymphocytes with exception of IFN-γ change in serum. These findings underline the potential of targeting gut microbiota, particularly E. fergusonii, in managing childhood HDM-AR, suggesting a promising approach for future interventions. The composition and distribution of gut microbiota in children with HDM-AR are significant changed. The abundance of Escherichia genus is decreased in HDM-AR children. HDM-specific IgE levels are strongly negatively associated with E. fergusonii abundance. Oral administration of E. fergusonii effectively suppresses allergic responses in murine model. These findings offer novel insights into the diagnosis and treatment of HDM-AR, which suggested that E. fergusonii holds promise as a potential therapeutic avenue for managing HDM-AR.
