Definitions
- the present invention relates to bacterial strains isolated from pigs. More specifically, the invention relates to the isolation of lactic acid bacteria from organically-reared pigs.
- the claimed lactic acid bacteria have useful probiotic and therapeutic applications.
- the composition of the microbial flora of pigs, their gut innate immune function and possible susceptibility to infection is greatly influenced by the environment in which they were reared during early life (Mulder et al, 2009). Outdoor-reared pigs generally have a more developed gut immune system, perform better and are healthier than indoor-reared counterparts. The outdoor environment dramatically influences microbial diversity of the gut and is associated with high levels of Firmicutes, in particular Lactic Acid Bacteria [LAB].
- LAB comprise a clade of gram-positive, low-GC, acid-tolerant, generally non-sporulating, non-respiring bacteria that are associated with certain common metabolic and physiological characteristics.
- LAB are rod-shaped bacilli or coccus that are characterized by an increased tolerance to a lower pH range.
- LAB produce lactic acid as the major metabolic end-product of carbohydrate fermentation and are amongst the most important groups of microorganisms used in the food industry.
- Lactobacilli are predominant in the gut flora of organically (outdoor) reared pigs. In contrast, the numbers of these bacteria are low in indoor-reared pigs and levels of potentially pathogenic phylotypes are high (Mulder et al, 2009). Furthermore, gut immune development and function of indoor-reared pigs is known to deviate from normal. In particular, expression of Type 1 interferon genes, Major Histocompatibility Complex class I and several chemokines are known to be increased (Mulder et al, 2009).
- Lactic acid bacteria may modify the flora and gut structure and function in several ways (Cotter et al, 2005; Ohashi and Ushida, 2009). For example, they may compete with harmful bacteria for key nutrients or attachment sites on the gut, resulting in their exclusion. Alternatively, they can produce bioactive substances that aid or promote colonisation by beneficial bacteria or kill/interfere with the growth of potentially harmful or pathogenic bacteria. Alternatively, these bioactive factors can be immune-modulators that promote immune development and barrier integrity of the gut. Strains of LAB vary greatly in their biological activity. The present invention seeks to provide LAB strains that have therapeutically useful properties. More specifically, the invention seeks to provide LAB strains that are capable of promoting gut and immune development and health, thereby having considerable therapeutic potential as probiotics.
- microbiota of out-door reared pigs contain LAB strains that produce potent and specific anti-microbial or cell-/immune-modulating bioactive factors.

- the term “porcine” means “of or pertaining to swine”, i.e. of or pertaining to any of several mammals of the family Suidae, especially the domesticated hog, Sus scrofa domesticus , or Sus domesticus when young or of comparatively small size.
- the pig is less than 3 months old, preferably, less than 2 months old.
- the porcine lactic acid bacterial strain is from an organically reared pig.
- the pigs are reared free range, outside (with exposure to soil) and in the absence of antibiotics, growth promoters and/or growth enhancers.

- the lactic acid bacterial strain is in the form of a culture of a single species of organism.
- lactic acid bacterial strain also encompasses mutants of said lactic acid bacterial strain.
- mutant includes derived bacterial strains having at least 93% homology, preferably at least 96% homology, more preferably 98% homology to the polynucleotide sequence of a referenced strain, but otherwise comprising mutations in other sequences in the bacterial genome. Mutants are obtainable by genetic engineering techniques inferring alteration of the genetic material of the strains of the invention or inferring a recombination of the genetic material of the strains of the invention with other molecules. Typically, in order to obtain such mutant strains, a person skilled in the art can use standard mutagenesis techniques such as UV radiation or exposure to mutagenic chemical products.
- mutants includes natural or induced mutations comprising at least single base alterations including deletions, insertions, transversions, and other modifications known to those skilled in the art, including genetic modification introduced into a parent nucleotide or amino acid sequence whilst maintaining at least 50% homology to the parent sequence.
- sequence comprising the mutation or mutations has at least 60%, more preferably at least 75%, more preferably still 85% homology with the parental sequence.
- sequence “homology” can be determined using standard techniques known to those skilled in the art. For example, homology may be determined using the on-line homology algorithm “BLAST” program, publicly available at http)://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/.
- lactic acid bacterial strain also encompasses homologues of the lactic acid bacterial strains.
- the term “homologue” refers to a lactic acid bacterial strain having a nucleotide sequence having a degree of sequence identity or sequence homology with the nucleotide sequence of the parent lactic acid bacterial strain (hereinafter referred to as a “homologous sequence(s)”).
- the term “homologous” means an entity having a certain homology with the subject nucleotide sequence.

- Homology comparisons can be conducted by eye, or more usually, with the aid of readily available sequence comparison programs. These commercially available computer programs can calculate % homology between two or more sequences. % homology may be calculated over contiguous sequences, i.e. one sequence is aligned with the other sequence and each amino acid in one sequence is directly compared with the corresponding amino acid in the other sequence, one residue at a time. This is called an “ungapped” alignment. Typically, such ungapped alignments are performed only over a relatively short number of residues.
- the degree of identity with regard to a nucleotide sequence is determined over at least 20 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 30 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 40 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 50 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 60 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 100 contiguous nucleotides.
- the degree of identity with regard to a nucleotide sequence may be determined over the whole sequence.
- the traditional identification of bacteria on the basis of phenotypic characteristics is generally not as accurate as identification based on genotypic methods.
- Comparison of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequence has emerged as a preferred genetic technique and allows for new strains to be identified by comparison of sequences with known bacterial DNA sequences using BLAST (http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi).
- the 16S rRNA gene sequence is universal in bacteria, and so relationships can be measured across many different bacteria.

- the 16S rRNA gene sequence has been determined for a large number of strains.
- GenBank the largest databank of nucleotide sequences, has over 20 million deposited sequences, of which over 90,000 are of 16S rRNA genes. This means that there are many previously deposited sequences against which to compare the sequence of an unknown strain.
- the lactic acid bacterial strain has a 16S rRNA gene sequence selected from SEQ ID NOS 1-87, or a homologue or variant thereof.
- Another embodiment of the invention relates to a lactic acid bacterial strain that comprises a 16S rRNA gene sequence selected from SEQ ID NOS 1-87, or a homologue or variant thereof. Preferred uses/methods apply to this aspect mutatis mutandis.

- C3H/HeN and C57BI/6 mice are treated with a lactic acid bacterial strain according to the invention prior to and post-challenge with Salmonella enteritidis .
- the mice are euthanased and dissected 6 (C57BI/6) or 10 (C3H/HeN) days post-infection and viable salmonella are detected in systemic tissues (e.g. the mesenteric lymph node, liver and spleen), in the intestine (e.g. caecum, colon) and in the faeces as compared to appropriate controls.
- the in vivo activity of the lactic acid bacterial strain of the invention can also be measured by determining the level of myeloperoxidase [MPO], a marker for neutrophils, in the intestine of C3H/HeN mice treated with salmonella or salmonella plus LAB.
- MPO in the intestine is greatly increased by salmonella infection, due to recruitment of neutrophils to the intestine part of the host response to infection.

- the LAB strains isolated (total of 436 individual colony picks) from faeces of organically-reared pigs were predominantly L. reuteri, L. johnsonii, L. gasseri, L. pentosus , strains with a small number of L. plantarum, L. acidophilus, L. vaginalis , a single L. mucosae and several uncultured strains.
- Certain strains were selected on the basis of anti-microbial potency as determined in vitro. These bacteria were further screened for their ability to block adherence/invasion of intestinal pig epithelial cells (IPEC) by pathogens in vitro and their susceptibility to antibiotics.
- IPEC intestinal pig epithelial cells
- mice with pig LAB L. reuteri or L. mucosae greatly reduced the pathogenicity of S. enteritidis in acute (C57BI/6 mouse) and chronic (C3H/HeN mouse) forms of salmonellosis.
- LAB strains were isolated and cultured from pig faeces using selective microbiological media. Individual bacterial colonies were isolated and 16S rRNA gene sequences were analysed to enable genotypic identification of bacterial strains. Phenotypic characteristic of potential probiotics was further determined following measurement of adherence, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory activities, antibiotic susceptibility and finally heat stability. Anti-bacterial activity of conditioned media derived from LAB was evaluated using well-diffusion assays to determine killing activity against the enteric pathogens Salmonella enteritidis and E. coli K88. The ability of LAB strains to block or interfere with S. enteritidis and E.
- IPEC pig epithelial
- PMA 12-O-Tetradecaboylphorbol-13-acetate
- a ranking system based on scoring the biological properties of LAB was established and used for the selection of candidate LAB strains for probiotic evaluation in vivo.
- the LAB (436 individual colony picks) isolated from faeces of organically-reared pigs were predominantly L. johnsonii or L. johnsonii -related and L. reuteri or L. reuteri -related with small numbers of L. plantarum -related and uncultured strains. This represented a much narrower range of porcine-associated LAB than reported by others (Martin et al, 2009; Yun et al, 2009; Lahteinen et al, 2010; Yao et al, 2011). However, in comparison to conventionally/intensively-reared pigs, out-door organically-reared pigs had high levels of LAB and more developed intestinal immune function (Mulder et al, 2009).
- the present bacterial data indicate that L. johnsonii and L. reuteri strains are of particular importance in proper development of the gut and immune system in young pigs.
- the inclusion of other lactic acid bacteria derived from the gut or faeces of organically-reared pigs, in particular, Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Lactobacillus amylovorous may enhance the immune homeostatic properties of Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus johnsonii.
- the LAB may limit the access of pathogens to the epithelial layer by occupying binding-sites on the cell monolayer or by production of factors that interfere with attachment of the pathogen to the epithelial cells, such as blocking binding sites of surface adhesins (Ljungh and Wadstrom, 2006; Blandino et al, 2008; Williams, 2010).
- Pig LAB may also block or suppress inflammatory gene (interleukin-8, IL-8)-expression triggered in IPEC cells by PMA.
- inflammatory gene interleukin-8, IL-8
- Individual cultures varied greatly in their ability to affect inflammation, but five strains (RINH vial 29, 30, 31 86 and 266) had potent anti-inflammatory properties.
- Certain LAB strains are known to have immuno-modulatory or anti-inflammatory properties (Cotter et al, 2005; Blandino et al, 2008; Ohashi and Ushida, 2009; Elmadfa et al, 2010; Liu et al, 2010). The mechanisms involved remain unclear, but are likely to involve modulation of molecular signalling systems by bioactive factors produced by the LAB.
- Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem and can spread between bacteria by gene transfer (Korhonen et al, 2007; Gousia et al, 2011; Nicolau, 2011). Ideally, candidate probiotics should have little or no resistance to antibiotics to minimise the risk of transfer of resistance genes to the host flora.
- Pig LAB 33 strains were screened for resistance to 10 individual antibiotics. One strain (RINH vial 266) was susceptible to all the tested antibiotics. Most were susceptible to ampicillin, cefotaxime, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, gentamicin, tetracycline and vancomycin. However, most exhibited resistance to metronizadole, nalidixic acid and to a lesser extent kanamycin. This relatively low incidence of antibiotic resistance amongst these LAB isolates may be linked to the environment in which the source piglets were reared [organic out-door reared] (Mulder et al, 2009).
- L. johnsonii, L. reuteri and L. plantarum exhibited strain-specific general substrate reaction profiles, when assayed using an API CH 50 kit. However, most genotype strains exhibited fine differences in their substrate reactivity. This indicated that they were unique individual strains of the genotype.
- the LAB can withstand being freeze dried to allow them to be handled and processed as probiotics. However, their viability can be greatly reduced during freezing and drying (Tomas et al, 2009; Strasser et al, 2009; Reddy et al, 2009). Skimmed milk powder, alone or in combination with simple sugars, is often used as a cryo-protectant to preserve the viability of the bacteria (Tomas et al, 2009; Strasser et al, 2009). In the present study, small losses in viability were evident on drying and storage of pig LAB in skimmed milk powder alone. Sucrose or lactose in combination with skimmed milk powder was slightly more protective. However, the product was hygroscopic and difficult to store or handle. It was therefore decided to dry and store pig LAB in skimmed milk powder.
- Supplemental feeds for animal are often given as pellets, production of which involves high temperatures (De Angelis et al, 2006).
- LAB to be added to animal feeds should therefore have a significant degree of heat-stability to minimise loss of viability during processing.
- five LAB were subject to heating three times for 15 minutes at 70° C. All of the bacteria that were recovered after the third heat-treatment were viable and in most cases grew at rates similar to the native forms of the bacteria. Two of the bacteria retained the biological properties of the native non-heat-treated forms. However, one of the heat-treated strains had lost the ability to block attachment of pathogen to epithelial cells in vitro and another had greatly reduced blocking activity.
- a further strain was unable to block PMA-induced inflammation in epithelial cells in vitro, although the native form was a potent suppressor of inflammation. Heat-treatment can thus differentially affect the biological properties of individual LAB. This needs to be taken into account when considering inclusion of LAB in pelleted animal feeds.
- RINH vial 323 L. mucosae greatly reduced the ability of S. enteritidis to invade, spread to and proliferate in systemic tissues in acute (C57BI/6 mouse) and chronic (C3H/Hen mouse) salmonellosis .
- RINH vial 31 [GGDK31] and RINH vial 32 were the most effective in this chronic model of salmonellosis .
- These LAB have potential as novel probiotics to promote gut health or increase resistance to infection in vivo.
- LAB By competing for nutrients, killing of pathogen or blocking of attachment sites, LAB could limit the numbers of salmonella in the large intestine reservoir. LAB may also prevent attachment to ileal mucosal cells, in a manner similar to that observed here with IPEC-J2 cells and with Caco-2 cells (Neeser et al, 2000) and thereby limit invasion.

- Substrate reactivity The carbohydrate reactivity of individual LAB was determined using an API CH 50 kit (Biomerieux UK Ltd). Assays were done according to the manufacturer's instructions and reactions were recorded after incubation for 24 and 48 hours at 37° C. There are 50 capsules on an API CH 50 plate. These contain various potential substrates and negative controls. The range of substrates is as follows: Monosaccharides 16, Monosaccharides/alcohols 4, Disaccharides 8, Trisaccharides 2, Polysaccharides 3, Alcohols 6, Others 7. For each substrate group the number of positive reactions is counted. This is divided by the maximum possible to give the rank for that substrate group. The sum of all the substrate scores gives the overall ranking for the bacterium. High Ranking indicates broad spectrum of substrate reactivity

In addition, the remaining four control mice were given a single dose of culture medium. The mice were euthanased and dissected on day 10, according to the procedure for study 1.
- Tissues were homogenised [1:100 w/v] in MRD using a Janke-Kunkel Ultra-Turrax T25 tissue homogeniser at 20,000 rpm for 30 seconds, as were jejunal and ileal contents. Up to eight sequential dilutions (1: 10 v/v) of the primary homogenates were made, plated out onto XLD agar and MacConkey No. 3 agar and incubated overnight at 37° C. Viable counts were estimated as before [Robertson et al, 2003].
- L. johnsonii and L. johnsonii -related strains [ L. johnsonii, L. johnsonii /gasseri, L. johnsonii/taiwanensis ] (240/436) and L. reuteri or L. reuteri -related [ L. reuteri, L. reuteri/pontis, L. reuteri/vaginalis, L. reuteri/acidophilus (169/436)].
- L. reuteri, L. reuteri/pontis, L. reuteri/vaginalis, L. reuteri/acidophilus (169/436)
- There were 7 L. plantarum/pentosus colonies 19 other species and 5 uncultured strains.
- Conditioned media from isolated LAB were screened for anti-bacterial activity against Salmonella enteritidis S1400 using a well-diffusion assay ( FIG. 1 ).
- Group 1 comprised of 14 strains (3.4% of total), Group 2 of 95 strains (22.8%), Group 3 of 99 strains (23.7%), Group 4 of 99 strains (23.7%), Group 5 of 86 strains (20.6%) and Group 6 of 24 strains (5.8%).
- the latter group comprised of seventeen L. johnsonii and L. johnsonii -related, six L. reuteri or L. reuteri -related strains and one uncultured strain.
- Conditioned media from LAB were also screened for anti- Escherichia coli K88 activity by the well diffusion assay.
- Activity against E. coli K88, as with salmonella varied greatly between individual colonies of LAB ( FIG. 3A ). The range and variation in the activity was similar amongst the L. johnsonii and L. reuteri strains. In general, there was no direct correlation between the anti- salmonella and anti E. coli K88 activities for any individual LAB ( FIG. 3C, 3D ). However of the ten strains in E. coli K88 group 5 ( FIG. 3B ), seven had relatively high activities against both pathogens, two had high activity against E. coli K88 but moderate activity against salmonella and one was active primarily against E. coli K88.
- the candidate LAB were screened for substrate reactivity using an API CH 50 kit (Table 5, 6, FIG. 6 ).
- L. johnsonii, L. reuteri and L. plantarum each exhibited strain-specific general substrate reaction profiles.
- most strains of each genotype exhibited fine differences in their substrate reactivity, indicative that they were unique individual strains.
- FIGS. 7A-7C The ability of candidate LAB to block or suppress inflammatory responses triggered in IPEC cells by 12-O-Tetradecaboylphorbol-13-acetate [PMA] was tested ( FIGS. 7A-7C ; Table 7).
- the candidate strains varied greatly in their capacity to block interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene-expression triggered by PMA.
- Five strains (RINH vial 29, 30, 31 86 and 266) had potent anti-inflammatory effects.
- FIGS. 8A and 8B The survival and viability of LAB after freeze drying in skimmed milk powder [SKP], SKP plus lactose or SKP plus sucrose was evaluated ( FIGS. 8A and 8B ).
- FIG. 8A depicts the stability of L. reuteri
- FIG. 8B depicts the stability of L. johnsonii . Small losses in viability were evident on storage for 42 and 84 days at room temperature of samples dried in SKP. This was less marked when skimmed milk powder and sugars were used in combination. However, the 24 latter preparations tended to be hygroscopic and difficult to maintain. Bulk preparations of GGDK266 and GGDK31 were therefore prepared by drying the bacteria in skimmed milk powder [100 g/1] (Table 8).
- Suspensions of faeces from organically reared pigs were heat treated for varying periods of time at 50-70° C., plated out on MRS agar, colonies picked off and cultured in MRS broth [RINH vial 417-506].
- the strain types recovered were variable and clostridium species formed a high proportion, the isolated strains remained sensitive to heat.
- Isolated cultures of LAB were subject to heating three times for 15 minutes at 70° C. ( FIGS. 9A-9C ).
- Viable bacteria decreased by 3-4 log orders after heat-treatment for the first time. However, the surviving bacteria had a degree of heat-resistance. With one exception, losses of viable bacteria were low when the bacteria were re-cultured and re-heated a further two times.
- C3H/HeN mice develop a persistent but non-lethal, intestinal and systemic infection, which has many characteristics of the major form of human salmonellosis , when challenged with high levels of Salmonella enteritidis S1400.
- C57BI/6 mice develop a severe primarily systemic, infection, reminiscent of acute infection in humans, when challenged with the same pathogen.
- L. mucosae vial 323
- C3H/HeN and C57BI/6 mice were treated with L. mucosae prior to and post-challenge with Salmonella enteritidis ( FIGS. 10, 13 ). The mice were euthanased and dissected 6 (C57BI/6) or 10 (C3H/HeN) days post-infection.
- Intestinal myeloperoxidase [MPO] a marker for neutrophils, was determined in C3H/HeN mice treated with salmonella or salmonella plus RINH vial 323 ( L. mucosae ). MPO in the intestine was greatly increased by salmonella infection, due to recruitment of neutrophils to the intestine part of the host response to infection ( FIG. 12B [[ 12 b ]]), Co-treatment with RINH vial 323 ( L. mucosae ) reduced MPO activity in the intestine of salmonella -infected mice, indicating that the intestinal inflammatory responses to infection were lowered in these animals.
- RINH vial 31, RINH vial 32, RINH vial 46 and RINH vial 47 All L. reuteri ; LR31, LR 32, LR 36 and LR47 respectively.
- C3H/HeN mice were treated with these LAB or RINH vial 323 ( L. mucosae , LM] prior to and post-challenge with Salmonella enteritidis ( FIG. 16 ).
- the mice were euthanased and dissected 10 days post-infection. Faecal excretion of S. enteritidis was reduced, if the mice had been co-treated with LAB ( FIG. 17A, 17B ).
- LR31 and LR32 tended to have the greatest effects on faecal salmonella outputs.
- Intestine Treatment with LR31, LR32, LM, LR46 or LR47 significantly reduced the numbers of salmonella in the caecum ( FIG. 18A ). Furthermore, LR31, LR32, LR46 and LR47 but not LM lowered salmonella numbers in the colon ( FIG. 18B ). The reductions tended to be greater with LR31 and LR32. In contrast to the large intestine, the LAB had no significant effects on numbers of salmonella in the small intestine.
- the LAB strains isolated (total of 436 individual colony picks) from faeces of organically-reared pigs were predominantly L. reuteri, L. johnsonii, L. gasseri, L. pentosus , strains with a small number of L. plantarum, L. acidophilus, L. vaginalis , a single L. mucosae and several uncultured strains.
- Most of the LAB produced substances that could inhibit the growth of S. enteritidis and/or E. coli K88 in vitro.
- the potency of these anti-pathogen effects varied greatly between the individual bacterial strains.
- a proportion of LAB had high activity against S. enteritidis but low activity against E. coli K88 and vice-versa, but the majority had similar activities against both pathogens.
- IPEC intestinal pig epithelial cells
- Heat stability is a useful feature for LAB to be used in pelleted animal foods.
- Five heat-conditioned viable strains of isolated pig LAB were obtained.
- the biological properties in vitro and probiotic potential of three of the strains were adversely affected by heat-treatment. Nonetheless, two of the bacteria retained the biological properties of their native non-heat-treated forms.
- mice with these LAB greatly reduced the pathogenicity of S. enteritidis.

DGGE can be utilised to visualise the differences in microbial diversity between samples. DNA obtained from a range of samples can be used in DGGE e.g. tissue and faecal samples. Bands on the gel were visualised using silver staining.
- tissue sample approximately 200 mg tissue sample was removed from RNAlater (Ambion) and lyzed in Trizol (Invitrogen) using a polytron homogenizer. The tissue was further homogenized by passing the lysate through a syringe fitted with a 19G needle 3-5 times.

Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 16/206,250, filed Nov. 30, 2018, now U.S. Pat. No. 11,013,773, issued May 25, 2021, which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 15/359,144, filed on Nov. 22, 2016, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,183,046, issued Jan. 22, 2019, which is a division of U.S. application Ser. No. 14/232,475, filed Oct. 17, 2014, now U.S. Pat. No. 9,539,293, issued Jan. 10, 2017, which is a national stage entry of PCT/GB2012/051686, filed Jul. 13, 2012, which claims the benefit of Great Britain Patent Application No. 1112091.2, filed Jul. 14, 2011, the entire contents of which are all incorporated herein by reference.
- The instant application contains a Sequence Listing which has been submitted electronically in ASCII format and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said ASCII copy, created on Apr. 16, 2021, is named 56708_704_302 SL.txt and is 83,040 bytes in size.
- The present invention relates to bacterial strains isolated from pigs. More specifically, the invention relates to the isolation of lactic acid bacteria from organically-reared pigs. The claimed lactic acid bacteria have useful probiotic and therapeutic applications.
- The composition of the microbial flora of pigs, their gut innate immune function and possible susceptibility to infection is greatly influenced by the environment in which they were reared during early life (Mulder et al, 2009). Outdoor-reared pigs generally have a more developed gut immune system, perform better and are healthier than indoor-reared counterparts. The outdoor environment dramatically influences microbial diversity of the gut and is associated with high levels of Firmicutes, in particular Lactic Acid Bacteria [LAB].
- LAB comprise a clade of gram-positive, low-GC, acid-tolerant, generally non-sporulating, non-respiring bacteria that are associated with certain common metabolic and physiological characteristics. LAB are rod-shaped bacilli or coccus that are characterized by an increased tolerance to a lower pH range. LAB produce lactic acid as the major metabolic end-product of carbohydrate fermentation and are amongst the most important groups of microorganisms used in the food industry.
- Lactobacilli are predominant in the gut flora of organically (outdoor) reared pigs. In contrast, the numbers of these bacteria are low in indoor-reared pigs and levels of potentially pathogenic phylotypes are high (Mulder et al, 2009). Furthermore, gut immune development and function of indoor-reared pigs is known to deviate from normal. In particular, expression of
Type 1 interferon genes, Major Histocompatibility Complex class I and several chemokines are known to be increased (Mulder et al, 2009). - Lactic acid bacteria may modify the flora and gut structure and function in several ways (Cotter et al, 2005; Ohashi and Ushida, 2009). For example, they may compete with harmful bacteria for key nutrients or attachment sites on the gut, resulting in their exclusion. Alternatively, they can produce bioactive substances that aid or promote colonisation by beneficial bacteria or kill/interfere with the growth of potentially harmful or pathogenic bacteria. Alternatively, these bioactive factors can be immune-modulators that promote immune development and barrier integrity of the gut. Strains of LAB vary greatly in their biological activity. The present invention seeks to provide LAB strains that have therapeutically useful properties. More specifically, the invention seeks to provide LAB strains that are capable of promoting gut and immune development and health, thereby having considerable therapeutic potential as probiotics.
- The present applicant has shown that the microbiota of out-door reared pigs contain LAB strains that produce potent and specific anti-microbial or cell-/immune-modulating bioactive factors.

- As used herein, the term “porcine” means “of or pertaining to swine”, i.e. of or pertaining to any of several mammals of the family Suidae, especially the domesticated hog, Sus scrofa domesticus, or Sus domesticus when young or of comparatively small size.
- Preferably, the pig is less than 3 months old, preferably, less than 2 months old. Preferably, the porcine lactic acid bacterial strain is from an organically reared pig. In this regard, preferably, the pigs are reared free range, outside (with exposure to soil) and in the absence of antibiotics, growth promoters and/or growth enhancers.
- Preferably, the porcine lactic acid bacterial strain is from an outdoor reared pig. Preferably, the pigs are reared outside for at least 60% of their lives. More preferably, the animals are reared outside for at least 80% of their lives, more preferably, at least 90% of their lives, even more preferably still, 100% of their lives.
- In one preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain is selected from L. johnsonii, L. reuteri, L. plantarum, L. gasseri, L. pentosus, L. acidophilus, L. vaginalis and L. mucosae.
- In one preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain is selected from L. johnsonii, L. reuteri and L. plantarum.
- In another preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain is in the form of a live bacterial population, a lyophilized bacterial population, a non-viable bacterial preparation, or the cellular components thereof. Preferably, where the bacterial strain is in the form of a non-viable bacterial preparation, it is selected from heat-killed bacteria, irradiated bacteria and lysed bacteria.
- In one preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain is in the form of a live bacterium, a dead bacterium, or the cellular components thereof.
- In one preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain is in isolated form. As used herein, the term “isolated” means isolated from its native environment.
- In one preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain is in biologically pure form. As used herein the term “biologically pure” refers to a bacterial strain in the form of a laboratory culture that is substantially free from other species of organism. Preferably, the lactic acid bacterial strain is in the form of a culture of a single species of organism.
- As used herein, the term “lactic acid bacterial strain” also encompasses mutants of said lactic acid bacterial strain. As used herein, the term “mutant” includes derived bacterial strains having at least 93% homology, preferably at least 96% homology, more preferably 98% homology to the polynucleotide sequence of a referenced strain, but otherwise comprising mutations in other sequences in the bacterial genome. Mutants are obtainable by genetic engineering techniques inferring alteration of the genetic material of the strains of the invention or inferring a recombination of the genetic material of the strains of the invention with other molecules. Typically, in order to obtain such mutant strains, a person skilled in the art can use standard mutagenesis techniques such as UV radiation or exposure to mutagenic chemical products.
- As used herein, the term “mutations” includes natural or induced mutations comprising at least single base alterations including deletions, insertions, transversions, and other modifications known to those skilled in the art, including genetic modification introduced into a parent nucleotide or amino acid sequence whilst maintaining at least 50% homology to the parent sequence. Preferably, the sequence comprising the mutation or mutations has at least 60%, more preferably at least 75%, more preferably still 85% homology with the parental sequence. As used herein, sequence “homology” can be determined using standard techniques known to those skilled in the art. For example, homology may be determined using the on-line homology algorithm “BLAST” program, publicly available at http)://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/.
- As used herein, the term “lactic acid bacterial strain” also encompasses homologues of the lactic acid bacterial strains. As used herein the term “homologue” refers to a lactic acid bacterial strain having a nucleotide sequence having a degree of sequence identity or sequence homology with the nucleotide sequence of the parent lactic acid bacterial strain (hereinafter referred to as a “homologous sequence(s)”). Here, the term “homologous” means an entity having a certain homology with the subject nucleotide sequence. Here, the term “homology” can be equated with “identity”.
- In the present context, a homologous sequence is taken to include a nucleotide sequence which may be at least 50, 60, 70, 75, 80, 85 or 90% identical, preferably at least 95%, 97%, 98% or 99% identical to the nucleotide sequence of the parent lactic acid bacterial strain (the subject sequence).
- Homology comparisons can be conducted by eye, or more usually, with the aid of readily available sequence comparison programs. These commercially available computer programs can calculate % homology between two or more sequences. % homology may be calculated over contiguous sequences, i.e. one sequence is aligned with the other sequence and each amino acid in one sequence is directly compared with the corresponding amino acid in the other sequence, one residue at a time. This is called an “ungapped” alignment. Typically, such ungapped alignments are performed only over a relatively short number of residues.
- Although this is a very simple and consistent method, it fails to take into consideration that, for example, in an otherwise identical pair of sequences, one insertion or deletion will cause the following amino acid residues to be put out of alignment, thus potentially resulting in a large reduction in % homology when a global alignment is performed.
- Calculation of maximum % homology therefore firstly requires the production of an optimal alignment, taking into consideration gap penalties. A suitable computer program for carrying out such an alignment is the Vector NTI (Invitrogen Corp.). Examples of software that can perform sequence comparisons include, but are not limited to, the BLAST package (see Ausubel et al 1999 Short Protocols in Molecular Biology, 4th Ed—Chapter 18), BLAST 2 (see FEMS Microbiol Lett 1999 174(2): 247-50; FEMS Microbiol Lett 1999 177(1): 187-8), FASTA (Altschul et al 1990 J. Mol. Biol. 403-410) and AlignX for example. At least BLAST,
BLAST 2 and FASTA are available for offline and online searching (see Ausubel et al 1999, pages 7-58 to 7-60). - Preferably, the degree of identity with regard to a nucleotide sequence is determined over at least 20 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 30 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 40 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 50 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 60 contiguous nucleotides, preferably over at least 100 contiguous nucleotides. Preferably, the degree of identity with regard to a nucleotide sequence may be determined over the whole sequence.
- The traditional identification of bacteria on the basis of phenotypic characteristics is generally not as accurate as identification based on genotypic methods. Comparison of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequence has emerged as a preferred genetic technique and allows for new strains to be identified by comparison of sequences with known bacterial DNA sequences using BLAST (http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi). The 16S rRNA gene sequence is universal in bacteria, and so relationships can be measured across many different bacteria. In general, the comparison of the 16S rRNA sequence allows differentiation between organisms at the genus level across all major phyla of bacteria, in addition to classifying strains at multiple levels, including species and sub-species level. The 16S rRNA gene sequence has been determined for a large number of strains. GenBank, the largest databank of nucleotide sequences, has over 20 million deposited sequences, of which over 90,000 are of 16S rRNA genes. This means that there are many previously deposited sequences against which to compare the sequence of an unknown strain.
- In one preferred embodiment, the lactic acid bacterial strain has a 16S rRNA gene sequence selected from SEQ ID NOS 1-87, or a homologue or variant thereof. Another embodiment of the invention relates to a lactic acid bacterial strain that comprises a 16S rRNA gene sequence selected from SEQ ID NOS 1-87, or a homologue or variant thereof. Preferred uses/methods apply to this aspect mutatis mutandis.
- The term “homologue” is as defined hereinabove. As used herein, the term “variant” includes any variation wherein: (a) one or more nucleotides are substituted by another nucleotide or deleted, (b) the order of two or more nucleotides is reversed, (c) both (a) and (b) are present together. Preferably, the variants arise from one of (a), (b) or (c). More preferably, one or two nucleotides are substituted or deleted. Even more preferably, one nucleotide is substituted by another.
- In one preferred embodiment of the invention, the lactic acid bacterial strain is characterised by the ability to exhibit antimicrobial activity against E. coli. The observed antimicrobial activity is most likely by virtue of anti-microbial substances produced by the lactic acid bacterial strains of the invention, although nature of these anti-microbial substances has not been determined.
- In the context of the present invention, the ability to exhibit antimicrobial activity against E. coli can be determined by measuring inhibition of the growth of E. coli in an in vitro well diffusion assay. Further details of the well diffusion assay are set forth in the accompanying examples. The assay is carried out using Escherichia coli K88 on
MacConkey No 3 agar, incubating the plates for 16 hours at 37° C. More specifically, Escherichia coli K88 is added to the agar (1 ml of a 1:1000 dilution of an overnight culture of Escherichia coli K88 in 200 ml agar to give the equivalent of 106 CFU/ml). The agar is poured into petri dishes and allowed to set. The plates are marked off into quadrants and an approximately 5 mm well cut out in each quadrant. An aliquot (60 μl) of conditioned media or MRS broth is added to the wells. The plates are covered and incubated for 16 hours at 37° C. They are photographed using a digital camera. Images are transferred to Photoshop, and the diameter of the well and zone of inhibition were determined using the measure tool. - In the context of killing E. coli in the above well diffusion assay, preferably the lactic acid bacterial strain of the invention exhibits <20000 units of inhibition, more preferably 20000-40000 units, even more preferably 40000-60000 units, more preferably 60000-80000 units, more preferably 80000-100000 units of inhibition, even more preferably still >100000 units of inhibition.
- In one preferred embodiment of the invention, the lactic acid bacterial strain is characterised by the ability to exhibit antimicrobial activity against S. enteritidis. Again, the observed antimicrobial activity is most likely by virtue of anti-microbial substances produced by the lactic acid bacterial strains of the invention, although nature of these anti-microbial substances has not been determined.
- In the context of the present invention, the ability to exhibit antimicrobial activity against S. enteritidis can be determined by measuring the ability to inhibit the growth of S. enteritidis in an in vitro well diffusion assay. Further details of the well diffusion assay are set forth in the accompanying examples. The assay is carried out using Salmonella enteritidis S1400 on XLD agar, incubating the plates for 16 hours at 37° C. XLD agar is prepared as per manufacturer's instructions and cooled to 45° C. Salmonella enteritidis S1400 is added to the XLD agar (1 ml of a 1:1000 dilution of an overnight culture of Salmonella enteritidis S1400 in 200 ml agar to give the equivalent of 106 CFU/ml). The XLD agar is poured into petri dishes and allowed to set. The plates are marked off into quadrants and an approximately 5 mm well cut out in each quadrant. An aliquot (60 μl) of conditioned media or MRS broth is added to the wells. The plates are covered and incubated for 16 hours at 37° C. and the data analysed as described above for the E. coli assay.
- In the context of killing Salmonella enteritidis in the above well diffusion assay, preferably the lactic acid bacterial strain of the invention exhibits <20000 units of inhibition, more preferably 20000-40000 units, even more preferably 40000-60000 units, more preferably 60000-80000 units, more preferably 80000-100000 units of inhibition, even more preferably still >100000 units of inhibition.
- In an alternative embodiment, the ability to exhibit antimicrobial activity against S. enteritidis can be determined by measuring the ability to inhibit S. enteritidis in vivo in C3H/HeN or C57BI/6 mice. Further details of appropriate in vivo assays are set forth in the accompanying examples.
- Specifically, C3H/HeN and C57BI/6 mice are treated with a lactic acid bacterial strain according to the invention prior to and post-challenge with Salmonella enteritidis. The mice are euthanased and dissected 6 (C57BI/6) or 10 (C3H/HeN) days post-infection and viable salmonella are detected in systemic tissues (e.g. the mesenteric lymph node, liver and spleen), in the intestine (e.g. caecum, colon) and in the faeces as compared to appropriate controls. The in vivo activity of the lactic acid bacterial strain of the invention can also be measured by determining the level of myeloperoxidase [MPO], a marker for neutrophils, in the intestine of C3H/HeN mice treated with salmonella or salmonella plus LAB. MPO in the intestine is greatly increased by salmonella infection, due to recruitment of neutrophils to the intestine part of the host response to infection. Co-treatment with a lactic acid bacterial strain according to the invention reduces MPO activity in the intestine of salmonella-infected mice, indicating that the intestinal inflammatory responses to infection are lowered in these animals, relative to control experiments.
- In one preferred embodiment of the invention, the lactic acid bacterial strain is characterised by the ability to suppress inflammation in IPEC cells induced by 12-O-tetradecaboylphorbol-13-acetate (PMA). In the context of the present invention, this refers to the ability of the lactic acid bacterial strain to block interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene expression triggered by PMA. More specifically, it can be determined by measuring the suppression of inflammation in IPEC-J2 cells induced by PMA when incubated for 2 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2, 95% humidity. Following RNA and reverse transcription, real time PCR is carried out on a 7500 Fast Real-time PCR system operating with 7500 Fast System v 1.4.0 Sequence Detection Software version 1.4 (Applied Biosystem), using primers for porcine IL-8 and TNF-α (prepared by Sigma Aldrich). The reaction mix is: 100 Power Sybergreen Master mix, 2.5 μl of forward primer, 2.5 μl of reverse primer and 5 μl of cDNA, The Real Time PCR is then run according to the Standard 7500 protocol (95° C., 10 min, 1 cycle. 95° C., 15 sec, 40 cycles. 60° C., 1 min, 40 cycles. 95° C., 15 sec, 1 cycle. 60° C., 1 min, 1 cycle. 95° C., 15 sec, 1 cycle. 60° C., 15 sec, 1 cycle). Expression of IL-8 and TNF-α genes are analysed and compared to that of the ‘house-keeping’ gene β-actin. For comparison, values are given as the ratio of IL-8 and TNF-α per β-actin or fold-change. Further details of this assay are set forth in the accompanying examples.
- In one preferred embodiment of the invention, the lactic acid bacterial strain is characterised by the ability to block the attachment or invasion of IPEC cells by S. enteritidis. This can be measured by the assay set forth in the accompanying examples. Specifically, monolayers of IPEC-J2 cells are grown to 3 days post-confluence in 24-well plates and synchronised by the addition of
DTS media 24 hrs prior to use. Overnight cultures of pig LAB (10 ml) are centrifuged and the bacteria re-suspended in phosphate buffered saline [PBS]. An aliquot (50 μl)) of LAB is added to the wells. The plates are incubated for 2 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2, 95% humidity. An overnight culture of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis S1400 [S. enteritidis S1400] is sub-cultured (0.5 ml in 10 ml) into Luria Bertani (LB) media and incubated aerobically for 2-3 hours at 37° C. until it reaches an optical density (560 nm) of 0.8 (a concentration equivalent to 1×108 CFU/ml).

- The LAB strains isolated (total of 436 individual colony picks) from faeces of organically-reared pigs were predominantly L. reuteri, L. johnsonii, L. gasseri, L. pentosus, strains with a small number of L. plantarum, L. acidophilus, L. vaginalis, a single L. mucosae and several uncultured strains.
- Most of the LAB produced substances that could inhibit the growth of S. enteritidis and/or E. coli K88 in vitro. The potency of these anti-pathogen effects varied greatly between the individual bacterial strains.
- Certain strains were selected on the basis of anti-microbial potency as determined in vitro. These bacteria were further screened for their ability to block adherence/invasion of intestinal pig epithelial cells (IPEC) by pathogens in vitro and their susceptibility to antibiotics.
- Certain strains were assayed for substrate range and specificity and their capacity to suppress inflammation in IPEC cells in vitro. From these, fourteen LAB (5 L. johnsonii, 6 L. reuteri and 3 L. plantarum) with favourable properties were identified. Two of these strains [GGDK266 and GGDK31] were prepared in bulk for in vivo evaluation in newly-weaned piglets. Other potentially important candidates were present amongst this set of 14 LAB.
- Small losses in viability were evident on freeze drying and storage of LAB dried in skimmed milk powder. A combination of skimmed milk powder and simple sugars was slightly more effective, but difficult to maintain. Bulk preparations of GGDK266 and GGDK31 were freeze-dried and stored in this medium.
- Five heat-conditioned cultures of LAB were obtained. However, the biological properties in vitro and probiotic potential of three strains were adversely affected by heat-treatment. Nonetheless, two of the bacteria retained the biological properties of the native non-heat-treated forms.
- Oral treatment of mice with pig LAB (L. reuteri or L. mucosae) greatly reduced the pathogenicity of S. enteritidis in acute (C57BI/6 mouse) and chronic (C3H/HeN mouse) forms of salmonellosis.
- The data indicate that LAB from organically-reared pigs have considerable potential as a source of novel and potent probiotics.
- Studies carried out by the applicant involved isolating large numbers of LAB from organically-reared pigs and screening for potent probiotic LAB strains by assessing their biological potency and mode of action both in vitro and in vivo.
- More specifically, experiments were undertaken to establish cultures of LAB derived from faeces of organically-reared pigs. The LAB strains were screened for anti-microbial activity against a number of pathogens in vitro. Experiments were undertaken to determine whether the LAB strains could block the attachment of pathogens to pig epithelial cells in vitro. Studies were also undertaken to evaluate the capacity of LAB to block inflammatory responses in pig epithelial cells in vitro. Strains demonstrating a good bioactive profile in vitro were selected and cultured in bulk for a large-scale study in vivo.
- Further details on the experimental techniques are described in the accompanying examples section. In brief, LAB strains were isolated and cultured from pig faeces using selective microbiological media. Individual bacterial colonies were isolated and 16S rRNA gene sequences were analysed to enable genotypic identification of bacterial strains. Phenotypic characteristic of potential probiotics was further determined following measurement of adherence, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory activities, antibiotic susceptibility and finally heat stability. Anti-bacterial activity of conditioned media derived from LAB was evaluated using well-diffusion assays to determine killing activity against the enteric pathogens Salmonella enteritidis and E. coli K88. The ability of LAB strains to block or interfere with S. enteritidis and E. coli K88 adherence/invasion of pig epithelial (IPEC) was also evaluated, as was their capacity to suppress inflammation in IPEC cells induced by 12-O-Tetradecaboylphorbol-13-acetate [PMA]. In addition, the metabolic properties of LAB strains (
API CH 50 kit) and their susceptibility to antibiotics was further determined. A ranking system, based on scoring the biological properties of LAB was established and used for the selection of candidate LAB strains for probiotic evaluation in vivo. - Further details on the results of the above experiments are described in the accompanying examples.
- The LAB (436 individual colony picks) isolated from faeces of organically-reared pigs were predominantly L. johnsonii or L. johnsonii-related and L. reuteri or L. reuteri-related with small numbers of L. plantarum-related and uncultured strains. This represented a much narrower range of porcine-associated LAB than reported by others (Martin et al, 2009; Yun et al, 2009; Lahteinen et al, 2010; Yao et al, 2011). However, in comparison to conventionally/intensively-reared pigs, out-door organically-reared pigs had high levels of LAB and more developed intestinal immune function (Mulder et al, 2009). The present bacterial data indicate that L. johnsonii and L. reuteri strains are of particular importance in proper development of the gut and immune system in young pigs. In addition, the inclusion of other lactic acid bacteria derived from the gut or faeces of organically-reared pigs, in particular, Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Lactobacillus amylovorous may enhance the immune homeostatic properties of Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus johnsonii.
- All of the isolated pig LAB produced substances that could kill or interfere with the growth of S. enteritidis in a well-diffusion assay and the majority killed or suppressed growth of E. coli K88. The potency of the anti-microbial activities varied greatly between individual colonies, irrespective of whether they were L. reuteri, L. johnsonii or L. plantarum. There was no general correlation between the anti-salmonella and anti-E. coli K88 potency of each of the LAB. LAB are known to produce a range of active factors, including organic acids, small anti-microbial compounds and anti-bacterial peptides (Cintas et al, 2001). The nature of these anti-microbial substances produced by LAB from organically-reared pigs has not been established.
- Thirty three pig LAB strains, selected on the basis of anti-pathogen activity, were tested for the ability to block attachment/invasion of IPEC cells by S. enteritidis and E. coli K88. They were all able to dramatically reduce attachment/invasion of IPEC cells by salmonella. The majority could also block E. coli K88. As with pathogen killing, there was no general correlation between the abilities of the LAB to block salmonella and E. coli K88. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believe that the LAB may limit the access of pathogens to the epithelial layer by occupying binding-sites on the cell monolayer or by production of factors that interfere with attachment of the pathogen to the epithelial cells, such as blocking binding sites of surface adhesins (Ljungh and Wadstrom, 2006; Blandino et al, 2008; Williams, 2010).
- Pig LAB may also block or suppress inflammatory gene (interleukin-8, IL-8)-expression triggered in IPEC cells by PMA. Individual cultures varied greatly in their ability to affect inflammation, but five strains (
RINH vial - Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem and can spread between bacteria by gene transfer (Korhonen et al, 2007; Gousia et al, 2011; Nicolau, 2011). Ideally, candidate probiotics should have little or no resistance to antibiotics to minimise the risk of transfer of resistance genes to the host flora. Pig LAB (33 strains) were screened for resistance to 10 individual antibiotics. One strain (RINH vial 266) was susceptible to all the tested antibiotics. Most were susceptible to ampicillin, cefotaxime, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, gentamicin, tetracycline and vancomycin. However, most exhibited resistance to metronizadole, nalidixic acid and to a lesser extent kanamycin. This relatively low incidence of antibiotic resistance amongst these LAB isolates may be linked to the environment in which the source piglets were reared [organic out-door reared] (Mulder et al, 2009).
- L. johnsonii, L. reuteri and L. plantarum, as expected, exhibited strain-specific general substrate reaction profiles, when assayed using an
API CH 50 kit. However, most genotype strains exhibited fine differences in their substrate reactivity. This indicated that they were unique individual strains of the genotype. - On the basis of their biological activities in vitro, fourteen LAB [4 L. plantarum-related, 3 L. johnsonii-related and 1 L. reuteri] were identified as having potential for testing in vivo. Two of these LAB strains [GGDK266 and GGDK31] were prepared in bulk.
- Interestingly, 7 of the fourteen LAB (
RINH vials - It is advantageous if the LAB can withstand being freeze dried to allow them to be handled and processed as probiotics. However, their viability can be greatly reduced during freezing and drying (Tomas et al, 2009; Strasser et al, 2009; Reddy et al, 2009). Skimmed milk powder, alone or in combination with simple sugars, is often used as a cryo-protectant to preserve the viability of the bacteria (Tomas et al, 2009; Strasser et al, 2009). In the present study, small losses in viability were evident on drying and storage of pig LAB in skimmed milk powder alone. Sucrose or lactose in combination with skimmed milk powder was slightly more protective. However, the product was hygroscopic and difficult to store or handle. It was therefore decided to dry and store pig LAB in skimmed milk powder.
- Supplemental feeds for animal are often given as pellets, production of which involves high temperatures (De Angelis et al, 2006). LAB to be added to animal feeds should therefore have a significant degree of heat-stability to minimise loss of viability during processing. In the present study, five LAB were subject to heating three times for 15 minutes at 70° C. All of the bacteria that were recovered after the third heat-treatment were viable and in most cases grew at rates similar to the native forms of the bacteria. Two of the bacteria retained the biological properties of the native non-heat-treated forms. However, one of the heat-treated strains had lost the ability to block attachment of pathogen to epithelial cells in vitro and another had greatly reduced blocking activity. A further strain was unable to block PMA-induced inflammation in epithelial cells in vitro, although the native form was a potent suppressor of inflammation. Heat-treatment can thus differentially affect the biological properties of individual LAB. This needs to be taken into account when considering inclusion of LAB in pelleted animal feeds.
- Experiments demonstrated that the pathogenicity of S. enteritidis was attenuated if mice were co-treated with LAB derived from organically-reared pigs. RINH vial 323 (L. mucosae) greatly reduced the ability of S. enteritidis to invade, spread to and proliferate in systemic tissues in acute (C57BI/6 mouse) and chronic (C3H/Hen mouse) salmonellosis. Furthermore, RINH vial 31 [GGDK31],
RINH vial 32,RINH vial 46 or RINH vial 47 (all L. reuteri) reduced colonisation of the large intestine, invasion and systemic spread and proliferation in C3H/HeN mice by S. enteritidis. Overall, RINH vial 31 [GGDK31] andRINH vial 32 were the most effective in this chronic model of salmonellosis. These LAB have potential as novel probiotics to promote gut health or increase resistance to infection in vivo. - Infection by salmonella is a multi-factorial process (Naughton and Grant, 2005). S. enteritidis colonises the whole gastro-intestinal tract, moves through the mucus layer and attaches to the mucosa. The large intestine acts as a reservoir for the pathogen but invasion is primarily via M cells, present on the Peyer's patches of the ileum. Most invaded salmonella spread to the mesenteric lymph nodes and then out to the liver and spleen (Naughton and Grant, 2005). Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that LAB could be blocking salmonella at various stages of the infection (Cintas et al, 2001; Cotter et al, 2005; Ohashi and Ushida, 2009). By competing for nutrients, killing of pathogen or blocking of attachment sites, LAB could limit the numbers of salmonella in the large intestine reservoir. LAB may also prevent attachment to ileal mucosal cells, in a manner similar to that observed here with IPEC-J2 cells and with Caco-2 cells (Neeser et al, 2000) and thereby limit invasion.
- Alternatively, LAB may directly modulate host responses to the infection, in particular suppression of inflammation. By limiting gut damage and preserving barrier integrity (Smith et al, 2008; Schreiber et al, 2009), the ability of salmonella to invade and spread would be greatly reduced.

The culture collection was based primarily on LAB collected from frozen samples 411, 412 and 416, which were from outdoor-reared pigs with particularly high levels of LAB in their faeces. MRS broth premix, agar and vancomycin, anaerobe gas packs and indicator and antibiotic discs were purchased from Oxoid, anaerobe catalyst from Fisher Scientific and cysteine-HCL, bromocresol green and skimmed milk powder from Sigma-Aldrich. Pig colostrum carbohydrate fractions were prepared as part of the SMART 163 programme of D. Kelly. DNA extraction kits were purchased from MP Biomedicals and PCR reagents and clean-up kits from Promega.
API CH 50 kits were purchased from Biomerieux UK Ltd. - Standard media: MRS broth and MRS agar were prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions. LAMVAB agar was prepared according to the method of Jackson et al. (2002). Agar plates were prepared immediately before use. MRS broth was decanted (10 ml per tube) into sterile Hungate tubes under anaerobic conditions and stored at room temperature.
- Carbohydrate-supplemented media: SMART 163 ammonium sulphate precipitate of pig colostrum: precipitated at 0, 20, 25, 30, 35, 45, 50, 55 or 65% saturation or soluble at 65% saturation were weighed out in proportion to the amounts recovered from 15 ml or 50 ml of colostrum. Carbohydrate fractions were each dispersed in 15 ml of MRS or LAMVAB agar, held at 45° C., and then individual plates were poured for each fraction. They were also dispersed in MRS broth (50 ml) and the supplemented broth decanted to eight (6 ml/tube) sterile Hungate tubes under anaerobic conditions.
- Animals: Female C3H/HeN and C57BI/6 mice (5-6 weeks old) were purchased from Harlan UK. They were housed as groups or pairs in standard caging within HEPA-filtered flexifilm isolators situated in a
class 2 containment facility. They had free access to a high quality rodent chow and sterile deionised water at all times and were allowed to acclimatise for 7 to 10 days prior to commencement of experiments. The Rowett Institute of Nutrition and Health (RINH) is licensed under the UK Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986. Studies herein were carried out under the auspices of an approved Home Office Project Licence by staff holding the requisite Home Office Personal Licence (as defined and set out in the UK Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986), and were reviewed and approved by the RINH Ethical Review Committee. - Culture of LAB: In initial studies, a small amount of frozen faeces (100 mg) was dispersed in 1 ml of maximum recovery diluent (MRD). Two further sequential ten-fold dilutions were made. All three suspensions were streaked out on MRS or LAMVAB agar plates. In later studies, the faeces sample was dispersed in 5 ml of MRD, further diluted (1:40) in MRD and 0.5 ml of this dilution spread over the surface of MRS or LAMVAB agar plates with or without supplemental pig colostrum carbohydrates. In all cases, the plates were incubated in an anaerobic jar for 72 hours at 37° C. Distinct colonies (at least 8 per plate) were picked off the agar plates and seeded into Hungate tubes containing MRS broth or where appropriate MRS broth containing pig colostral carbohydrates. The tubes were incubated for 48 hours at 37° C.
- Frozen stock: An aliquot (0.7 ml) of each culture was drawn off with a sterile syringe and needle and dispensed into a plastic tube that was flushed with CO2 and contained 0.3 ml glycerol and 2 mg L-cysteine. The tube was sealed with a plastic stopper, labelled, the contents mixed, frozen and stored at −80° C.
- Conditioned medium: The remaining culture was transferred to a
Corning 15 ml centrifuge tube, centrifuged at 1000 g×5 min at room temperature, the supernatant decanted, aliquoted and frozen. The pellets were either extracted immediately for 16S rRNA gene analysis or frozen. - 16S rRNA gene analysis (Clarridge, 2004): Bacterial DNA was extracted using a FastDNA® Spin kit for Soil in conjunction with a Fastprep 120 bead beater system, according to the protocol supplied with the kit. PCR was carried out (reaction mix: buffer, 104 dNTPs (2 mM), 5 μl. 27F Primer (20 pmol/2 μl. 1492R Primer (20 pmol/μl)). 2 μl Go Taq Flexi Polymerase, 0.5 μl). MgCl2, 5 μl. H2O, 23.5 μl and 2 μl of extracted DNA) using MJ Research PTC-200 Peltier Thermal Cycler run through 35 cycles of 95° C. for 3 minutes, 95° C. for 30 seconds, 57° C. for 30 seconds and 72° C. for two minutes. Primer: 27F (F01) AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG; 1492R (RP2) ACGGCTACCTTGTTACGACTT. PCR product cleanup was done with a Wizard® SV Gel and PCR Clean-up kit (Promega), used according to the manufacturer's instructions. 16S PCR products were sequenced using fully automated genetic analysers based on capillary electrophoresis technology (Genomics Section, RINH, UoA) using the reverse and forward primers 519R and 926F. Bacterial strains were identified by comparison of sequences with known bacterial DNA sequences using BLAST (http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi).
- Antibacterial activity: XLD agar was prepared as per manufacturer's instructions and cooled to 45° C. Salmonella enteritidis S1400 was added to the XLD agar [1 ml of a 1:1000 dilution of an overnight culture of salmonella in 200 ml XLD agar to give the equivalent of 106 CFU/ml]. The agar was poured into petri dishes and allowed to set. The plates were marked off into 4 quadrants and an approximately 5 mm well cut out in each quadrant. An aliquot (60 μl) of conditioned media or MRS broth was added to the wells. The plates were covered and incubated for 16 hours at 37° C. They were photographed using a digital camera. Images transferred to Photoshop, and the diameter of the well and zone of inhibition were determined using the measure tool. Values were calculated and stored on an Excel spreadsheet. The same procedure was used with Escherichia coli K88, except that
MacConkey No 3 agar was used. - Antibiotic susceptibility: Pig LAB [0.5 ml of a 1:100 dilution of an overnight culture] was spread onto the surface of an MRS agar [90 mm] plate and dried off. The plates were marked off into 4 quadrants and in each quadrant was placed an antibiotic-containing disc [Ampicillin, 10 μg. Cefotaxime, 30 μg. Chloramphenicol, 10 μg. Erythromycin, 15 Gentamicin, 10 μg Kanamycin, 30 μg. Metronizadole, 50 μg. Nalidixic acid, 30 μg. Tetracycline, 30 μg. Vancomycin, 30 μg]. The plates were covered, placed in an anaerobic jar and incubated for 24 hours at 37° C. They were photographed using a digital camera. Images transferred to Photoshop, and the diameter of the zone of inhibition was determined using the measure tool. Values were calculated and stored on an Excel spreadsheet.
- Prevention of adherence/invasion by salmonella in vitro: Monolayers of IPEC-J2 cells were grown to 3 days post-confluence in 24-well plates and synchronised by the addition of
DTS media 24 hrs prior to use. Overnight cultures of pig LAB (10 ml) were centrifuged [1000 g×5 min at room temperature] and the bacteria re-suspended in 1 ml of phosphate buffered saline [PBS]. An aliquot (50 μl) of LAB was added to the wells. The plates were incubated for 2 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2, 95% humidity. An overnight culture of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis S1400 [S. enteritidis S1400] was sub-cultured (0.5 ml in 10 ml) into Luria Bertani (LB) media and incubated aerobically for 2-3 hours at 37° C. until it reached an optical density (560 nm) of 0.8. This gave a concentration equivalent to 1×108 CFU/ml. The culture was centrifuged [1000 g×5 min at room temperature], the bacteria re-suspended in 10 ml of PBS. An aliquot (50 μl) was added to the wells of IPEC-J2 cells. Wells treated with PBS were used as controls. The plates were incubated for a further 2 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2, 95% humidity. The IPEC-J2 cell monolayers were washed 5 times with HBSS. A solution (0.5 ml) of PBS containing Triton-X100 (10 ml/litre) was added to each well, the monolayer scraped off and dispersed. Viable salmonella were estimated on XLD agar plates [incubated for 24 hours at 37° C.] by the Miles and Misra method [Robertson et al, 2003]. LAB were determined by the same procedure [incubated anaerobically for 48 hours at 37° C.]. - Inhibition of inflammatory responses: Monolayers of IPEC-J2 cells were grown to 3 days post-confluence in 24-well plates and synchronised by the addition of
DTS media 24 hrs prior to use. Overnight cultures of pig LAB (10 ml) were centrifuged [1000 g×5 min at room temperature] and the bacteria re-suspended in 1 ml of PBS. An aliquot (50 μl) of LAB was added to each well [3 wells for each sample] along with 220 ng 12-O-Tetradecaboylphorbol-13-acetate [PMA] per well. PMA or PBS alone served as controls. The plates were incubated for 2 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2, 95% humidity. Culture media was removed from the dishes and the cells washed twice with PBS. RLT buffer (0.5 ml) containing mercaptoethanol was added to each well, the cells scraped off and transferred to an eppendorf tube [for each sample scrapings from 3 wells were combined]. RNA extraction was done using RNeasy® Mini kit in accordance with the manufacturer's protocols and reverse transcription with a high capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems). Real Time PCR was done on a 7500 Fast Real-time PCR system operating with 7500 Fast System v 1.4.0 Sequence Detection Software version 1.4 (Applied Biosystem). Primers for porcine IL-8 and TNF-α [IPEC-J2, SY100604186-096 IL-8-2 Reverse, SY100604186-090 TNF1 a Reverse, SY100604186-095 IL-8 2 Forward, SY100604186-089 TN Fa 1 Forward, and SY100604186-093] were prepared by Sigma Aldrich. The reaction mix was: 10 μl Power Sybergreen Master mix, 2.5 μl of forward primer, 2.5 μl of reverse primer and 5 μl of cDNA, The Real Time PCR was then run according to the Standard 7500 protocol [95° C., 10 min, 1 cycle. 95° C., 15 sec, 40 cycles. 60° C., 1 min, 40 cycles. 95° C., 15 sec, 1 cycle. 60° C., 1 min, 1 cycle. 95° C., 15 sec, 1 cycle. 60° C., 15 sec, 1 cycle]. Expression of IL-8 and TNF-α genes were analysed and compared to that of the ‘house-keeping’ gene β-actin. For comparison, values were given as the ratio of IL-8 and TNF-α per β-actin or fold-change. - For example:
- a. Calculate ΔCt (2h) for IL-8 [Ct IL-8 minus Ct β-actin]
- b. Calculate ΔCt (2h) for PMA [Ct PMA minus Ct β-actin]
- c. Divide ΔCt (IL-8) with ΔCt (PMA)
- d. Round up value to whole number
- Substrate reactivity: The carbohydrate reactivity of individual LAB was determined using an
API CH 50 kit (Biomerieux UK Ltd). Assays were done according to the manufacturer's instructions and reactions were recorded after incubation for 24 and 48 hours at 37° C. There are 50 capules on anAPI CH 50 plate. These contain various potential substrates and negative controls. The range of substrates is as follows:Monosaccharides 16, Monosaccharides/alcohols 4,Disaccharides 8,Trisaccharides 2,Polysaccharides 3,Alcohols 6,Others 7. For each substrate group the number of positive reactions is counted. This is divided by the maximum possible to give the rank for that substrate group. The sum of all the substrate scores gives the overall ranking for the bacterium. High Ranking indicates broad spectrum of substrate reactivity - Heat-treatment of LAB: A small amount of frozen faeces (100 mg) was dispersed in 5 ml of maximum recovery diluent (MRD). Sediment was allowed to settle out and the upper layer was decanted into eppendorf tubes (1 ml/tube). The tubes were heated at 50° C., 60° C. or 70° C. for 10 min. An aliquot (0.4 ml) of each was plated out on MRS agar and incubated in an anaerobic jar for 72 hours at 37° C. A small number of colonies were detected after heating at 70° C. Distinct colonies were picked off, seeded into Hungate tubes containing MRS broth and incubated for 48 hours at 37° C.
- In a second study, a small amount of frozen faeces (100 mg) was dispersed in 5 ml of maximum recovery diluent (MRD). Sediment was allowed to settle out and the upper layer was decanted into eppendorf tubes (1 ml/tube). The tubes were heated at 50° C. for 20 min, 50° C. for 20 min plus 60° C. for 20 min or 50° C. for 20 min plus 60° C. for 20 min plus 70° C. for 20 min. An aliquot (0.5 ml) of each was plated out on MRS agar and incubated in an anaerobic jar for 48 hours at 37° C. A small number of colonies were detected, picked off, seeded into Hungate tubes containing MRS broth and incubated for 48 hours at 37° C.
- In the third study, an overnight culture (10 ml) of isolated pig LAB was centrifuged (1000 g×5 min at room temperature), the pellet re-suspended in fresh MRS broth (10 ml). An aliquot (1 ml) was heated at 70° C. for 15 min and then plated out (0.5 ml) out on MRS agar and incubated in an anaerobic jar for 48 hours at 37° C. A small number of colonies were detected, picked off, seeded into Hungate tubes containing MRS broth and incubated for 48 hours at 37° C. This culture was centrifuged, re-suspended in MRS broth, heated again at 70° C. for 15 min, plated out on MRS agar, incubated in an anaerobic jar for 48 hours at 37° C., picked off, seeded into Hungate tubes containing MRS broth and incubated for 48 hours at 37° C. As before, this culture was centrifuged, re-suspended in MRS broth, re-heated at 70° C. for 15 min, plated out (0.5 ml) out on MRS agar, incubated in an anaerobic jar for 48 hours at 37° C., picked off, seeded into Hungate tubes containing MRS broth and incubated for 48 hours at 37° C.
- Stability of freeze dried bacteria: Overnight cultures of LAB were centrifuged (1000 g×5 min at room temperature. Pellets were re-suspended in 2 ml sterile PBS and re-centrifuged. The subsequent pellets were then re-suspended in 5 ml of freezing solution [defatted skimmed milk powder (SKP), 100 g/1; SKP+lactose, both 100 g/1; SKP+sucrose, both 100 g/1; or SKP, 200 g/1]. The samples were frozen at −20° C. (2-3 hours) and then stored at −80° C. overnight. They were freeze-dried for 48 hours and dried material stored at room temperature. Viable bacteria in the samples were determined at 0 and approximately 40 and 80 days after completion of freeze drying. They were plated out on MRS agar and incubated anaerobically for 48 hours at 37° C.
- Bulk preparation of GGDK31 and GGDK266: Two 500 ml batches of MRS broth were prepared in 500 ml glass screw-top bottles, autoclaved and allowed to cool to room temperature (in proximity to gas flame) whilst being flushed with CO2. Four ml of a 24 hour culture of GGDK31 or GGDK266 was added to each bottles of MRS and the lids lightly closed. The bottles were placed in an anaerobic jar and incubated at 37° C. for 24 hours. The culture was centrifuged [1000 g×5 min at room temperature] in 6 sterile 50 ml centrifuge tubes. The supernatant was discarded, tubes refilled with culture and re-centrifuged until all the bacteria had been recovered. Each of the 6 tubes contained almost equal amounts of bacteria. The bacteria in each tube were re-suspended in 40 ml of sterile PBS, re-centrifuged and the supernatant discarded. The bacteria in each tube was re-suspended in 20 ml of SKM (100 g/1), frozen at −20° C. (2-3 hours) and then overnight at −80° C., freeze-dried for 48-72 hours and stored at 4° C. To evaluate viable bacteria in the sample, one tube of freeze dried material was re-suspended in 20 ml of MRS broth, incubated at room temperature for 2 hours, diluted, plated out on MRS agar and incubated anaerobically for 48 hours at 37° C.
- L. mucosae in vivo Study 1: Sixteen (6 week) old female C3H/HeN mice were dosed with an overnight culture of vial 323 (L. mucosae; 50 μl; >109 CFU) at day −7, −4, −2 and 0 and daily thereafter up to day +9. A further 16 mice (control) were given media. On
day 0, eight mice (L. mucosae-treated) and eight control mice were given, by gavage, a single dose of Salmonella enteritidis S1400 (50 μl;≥108 CFU). In addition, eight mice (L. mucosae-treated) and eight control mice were given a single dose of culture medium. Body weight and health score were monitored twice daily post-salmonella infection. The mice were euthanased (isoflurane overdose and exsanguination) and dissected at 10 days post-salmonella infection. Stomach, representative portions of jejunum and ileum, caecum plus contents, colon plus contents, spleen and liver and one kidney and the mesenteric lymph node were collected under near aseptic conditions for microbiology. Representative portions of upper jejunum, mid jejunum, ileum, caecum and ascending and descending colon were placed in neutral buffered formalin or RNA-later and stored for future analysis. - L. mucosae in vivo Study 2: Five (6 week) old female C57BI/6 mice were dosed with an overnight culture of vial 323 (L. mucosae; 50 μl; >109 CFU) at day −7, −4, −2 and 0 and daily thereafter up to day+5. A further 5 mice were given media. On
day 0, all ten mice were given, by gavage, a single dose of Salmonella enteritidis S1400 (50 μl; >107CFU). The mice were euthanased and dissected onday 6, according to the procedure forstudy 1. - Novel pig LAB in vivo: Four (6 week) old female C3H/HeN mice were dosed with an overnight culture of RINH vial 31 (L. reuteri; 50 μl; >109 CFU), four with RINH vial 32 (L. reuteri). Four with vial 323 (L. mucosae), four with RINH vial 46 (L. reuteri), four with RINH vial 47 (L. reuteri) and eight with MRS. This was done at day −6, −4, −2 and 0 and daily thereafter up to day+9. On
day 0, all lactobacilli-treated mice and four control mice were given, by gavage, a single dose of Salmonella enteritidis S1400 (50 μl;≥108 CFU). In addition, the remaining four control mice were given a single dose of culture medium. The mice were euthanased and dissected onday 10, according to the procedure forstudy 1. - Microbiology: Tissues were homogenised [1:100 w/v] in MRD using a Janke-Kunkel Ultra-Turrax T25 tissue homogeniser at 20,000 rpm for 30 seconds, as were jejunal and ileal contents. Up to eight sequential dilutions (1: 10 v/v) of the primary homogenates were made, plated out onto XLD agar and MacConkey No. 3 agar and incubated overnight at 37° C. Viable counts were estimated as before [Robertson et al, 2003].
- Statistical analysis: Where appropriate data were initially assessed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) regarding treatment outcome. If ANOVA indicated that there were significant differences (p<0.05) amongst all groups, the data was then analysed by the Tukey-Kramer Multiple Comparisons Test or the Kruskal-Wallis Multiple Comparisons Test as appropriate. This was done using the Instat Statistical Package (GraphPad Software Inc., San Diego, USA).
- Based on the outputs from the multiple comparison tests, means in tables or graphs were marked with superscript letters. Means that differed significantly from each other (p<0.05) were allocated distinct superscript letters. Means that did not differ significantly from each other were allocated common superscript letters.
- Faeces from organically-reared piglets were plated out on selective agars and were incubated under anaerobic conditions. From all studies, a total of 436 individual colonies of Lactic Acid Bacteria [LAB] were picked off, seeded into MRS broth and incubated under anaerobic conditions. Each culture was given a unique RINH vial number and an aliquot was frozen down in MRS media containing 30% glycerol and L-cysteine (˜2 mg/ml) and stored at −80° C. 16S rRNA gene analysis was done and bacterial strains were identified by comparison of sequences with known bacterial DNA sequences (Table 1).
- The majority of the cultured LAB colonies were L. johnsonii and L. johnsonii-related strains [L. johnsonii, L. johnsonii/gasseri, L. johnsonii/taiwanensis] (240/436) and L. reuteri or L. reuteri-related [L. reuteri, L. reuteri/pontis, L. reuteri/vaginalis, L. reuteri/acidophilus (169/436)]. There were 7 L. plantarum/pentosus colonies, 19 other species and 5 uncultured strains.
- Conditioned media from isolated LAB were screened for anti-bacterial activity against Salmonella enteritidis S1400 using a well-diffusion assay (
FIG. 1 ). - Conditioned media from individual colonies of LAB varied greatly in their activity against S. enteritidis (
FIG. 2A ). This was not strain dependent. The range of anti-salmonella activities amongst L. johnsonii was similar to that amongst L. reuteri. On an arbitrary basis, the cultures were separated into groupings on the basis of their capacity to inhibit salmonella in vitro (FIG. 2B [[2 b]]).Group 1 had <20000 units of inhibition,Group 2 20000-40000 units of inhibition,Group 3 40000-60000 units of inhibition,Group 4 60000-80000 units of inhibition,Group 5 80000-100000 units of inhibition andGroup 6>>100000 units of inhibition (FIG. 2B Group 1 comprised of 14 strains (3.4% of total),Group 2 of 95 strains (22.8%),Group 3 of 99 strains (23.7%),Group 4 of 99 strains (23.7%),Group 5 of 86 strains (20.6%) andGroup 6 of 24 strains (5.8%). The latter group comprised of seventeen L. johnsonii and L. johnsonii-related, six L. reuteri or L. reuteri-related strains and one uncultured strain. - 3. Anti-E. coli K88 Activity In Vitro
- Conditioned media from LAB were also screened for anti-Escherichia coli K88 activity by the well diffusion assay. Activity against E. coli K88, as with salmonella, varied greatly between individual colonies of LAB (
FIG. 3A ). The range and variation in the activity was similar amongst the L. johnsonii and L. reuteri strains. In general, there was no direct correlation between the anti-salmonella and anti E. coli K88 activities for any individual LAB (FIG. 3C, 3D ). However of the ten strains in E. coli K88 group 5 (FIG. 3B ), seven had relatively high activities against both pathogens, two had high activity against E. coli K88 but moderate activity against salmonella and one was active primarily against E. coli K88. - Thirty-three strains were identified for further testing in vitro (Table 2).
- These comprised 18 L. johnsonii and L. johnsonii-related strains, 11 L. reuteri or L. reuteri-related and 4 L. plantarum and L. plantarum-related strains (Table 2a).
- 5. Attachment I invasion of Pig Intestinal Epithelial [IPEC-J2] Cells
- The capacity of LAB to block adhesion/invasion of IPEC cells by S. enteritidis and E. coli K88 was evaluated (
FIG. 4A, 4B ,). The candidate LAB all greatly reduced attachment and invasion of IPEC cells by salmonella. Most of them were also very effective against E. coli K88. However, 3 of the strains had only limited effects on adhesion/invasion of IPEC cells by E. coli K88. - The susceptibility of the candidate LAB to a range of antibiotics was evaluated (Table 4,
FIG. 5 ). All but one strain (RINH vial 266) exhibited some degree of resistance to individual antibiotics. All were susceptible to ampicillin (10 μg), cefotaxime (30 μg) and chloramphenicol (10 μg). The majority were susceptible to erythromycin (15 gentamicin (10 μg), tetracycline (30 μg) and vancomycin (30 μg). Most strains were resistant to metronizadole (50 μg) and nalidixic acid (30 μg) and to a lesser extent kanamycin (30 μg). 23 - Twenty-three high ranking strains were identified for further testing in vitro.
- The candidate LAB were screened for substrate reactivity using an
API CH 50 kit (Table 5, 6,FIG. 6 ). L. johnsonii, L. reuteri and L. plantarum each exhibited strain-specific general substrate reaction profiles. In addition, most strains of each genotype exhibited fine differences in their substrate reactivity, indicative that they were unique individual strains. - The ability of candidate LAB to block or suppress inflammatory responses triggered in IPEC cells by 12-O-Tetradecaboylphorbol-13-acetate [PMA] was tested (
FIGS. 7A-7C ; Table 7). The candidate strains varied greatly in their capacity to block interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene-expression triggered by PMA. Five strains (RINH vial - Fourteen strains were identified having killing and blocking activities against salmonella and E. coli K88, susceptibility to antibiotics carbohydrate reactivity and capacity to suppress inflammation in vitro. Seven of these were particularly preferred. The latter set comprised 4 L. plantarum-related, 3 L. johnsonii-related and one L. reuteri. Two of these LAB strains [GGDK266 and GGDK31] were prepared in bulk for evaluation in a trial with newly-weaned piglets (Table 8).
- The survival and viability of LAB after freeze drying in skimmed milk powder [SKP], SKP plus lactose or SKP plus sucrose was evaluated (
FIGS. 8A and 8B ).FIG. 8A depicts the stability of L. reuteri andFIG. 8B depicts the stability of L. johnsonii. Small losses in viability were evident on storage for 42 and 84 days at room temperature of samples dried in SKP. This was less marked when skimmed milk powder and sugars were used in combination. However, the 24 latter preparations tended to be hygroscopic and difficult to maintain. Bulk preparations of GGDK266 and GGDK31 were therefore prepared by drying the bacteria in skimmed milk powder [100 g/1] (Table 8). - Suspensions of faeces from organically reared pigs were heat treated for varying periods of time at 50-70° C., plated out on MRS agar, colonies picked off and cultured in MRS broth [RINH vial 417-506]. The strain types recovered were variable and clostridium species formed a high proportion, the isolated strains remained sensitive to heat.
- Isolated cultures of LAB were subject to heating three times for 15 minutes at 70° C. (
FIGS. 9A-9C ). Viable bacteria decreased by 3-4 log orders after heat-treatment for the first time. However, the surviving bacteria had a degree of heat-resistance. With one exception, losses of viable bacteria were low when the bacteria were re-cultured and re-heated a further two times. - Heat-treatment three times at 70° C. altered the biological activities of the strains (
FIGS. 9A-9C ). RINH vial 521 (vial 255 heat-treated) was not able to block attachment of pathogens to IPEC cells and the capacity of RINH vial 520 (vial 230 heat-treated) to prevent attachment was reduced. The ability of RINH vial 517 (vial 31 heat-treated) to abolish inflammatory responses triggered in IPEC cells was abolished. In contrast, the biological properties of RINH vial 518 (vial 85 heat-treated) and RINH vial 519 (vial 86 heat-treated) were similar to those of the native strains. - 13.1 L. mucosae (RINH Vial 323)
- C3H/HeN mice develop a persistent but non-lethal, intestinal and systemic infection, which has many characteristics of the major form of human salmonellosis, when challenged with high levels of Salmonella enteritidis S1400. In contrast, C57BI/6 mice develop a severe primarily systemic, infection, reminiscent of acute infection in humans, when challenged with the same pathogen. To evaluate the capacity of L. mucosae (vial 323) to ameliorate salmonellosis, C3H/HeN and C57BI/6 mice were treated with L. mucosae prior to and post-challenge with Salmonella enteritidis (
FIGS. 10, 13 ). The mice were euthanased and dissected 6 (C57BI/6) or 10 (C3H/HeN) days post-infection. - Systemic tissues: Oral treatment with L. mucosae limited the capacity of S. enteritidis to cause systemic infection both in C3H/HeN and C57BI/6 mice (
FIG. 11A-11C ; 14A-14C[[11a-c; 14a-c]]). High numbers of viable salmonella were detected in the mesenteric lymph node, liver and spleen of mice. In contrast, the numbers present in these tissues were greatly reduced if the mice had been co-treated with RINH vial 323 (L. mucosae). Salmonella infection caused enlargement of the spleen (FIG. 12A ; 15). This tissue response was significantly reduced in mice treated with both RINH vial 323 (L. mucosae) and salmonella. - Intestine: Intestinal myeloperoxidase [MPO], a marker for neutrophils, was determined in C3H/HeN mice treated with salmonella or salmonella plus RINH vial 323 (L. mucosae). MPO in the intestine was greatly increased by salmonella infection, due to recruitment of neutrophils to the intestine part of the host response to infection (
FIG. 12B [[12 b]]), Co-treatment with RINH vial 323 (L. mucosae) reduced MPO activity in the intestine of salmonella-infected mice, indicating that the intestinal inflammatory responses to infection were lowered in these animals. - Four LAB were selected:
RINH vial 31,RINH vial 32,RINH vial 46 and RINH vial 47 (All L. reuteri; LR31,LR 32,LR 36 and LR47 respectively). To assess their efficacy to ameliorate a pathogen infection, C3H/HeN mice were treated with these LAB or RINH vial 323 (L. mucosae, LM] prior to and post-challenge with Salmonella enteritidis (FIG. 16 ). The mice were euthanased and dissected 10 days post-infection. Faecal excretion of S. enteritidis was reduced, if the mice had been co-treated with LAB (FIG. 17A, 17B ). LR31 and LR32 tended to have the greatest effects on faecal salmonella outputs. - Intestine: Treatment with LR31, LR32, LM, LR46 or LR47 significantly reduced the numbers of salmonella in the caecum (
FIG. 18A ). Furthermore, LR31, LR32, LR46 and LR47 but not LM lowered salmonella numbers in the colon (FIG. 18B ). The reductions tended to be greater with LR31 and LR32. In contrast to the large intestine, the LAB had no significant effects on numbers of salmonella in the small intestine. - Systemic tissues: Treatment with LR31, LR32, LM, LR46 or LR47 greatly reduced the numbers of salmonella detected in the spleen and liver (
FIGS. 19A-19C ). The reductions were more marked with LR31 and LR32 than with LM, LR46, or LR47. Salmonella numbers in the mesenteric lymph node were lowered following treatment with LR31, LR32 and LR46 but not with LM or LR47. - The LAB strains isolated (total of 436 individual colony picks) from faeces of organically-reared pigs were predominantly L. reuteri, L. johnsonii, L. gasseri, L. pentosus, strains with a small number of L. plantarum, L. acidophilus, L. vaginalis, a single L. mucosae and several uncultured strains. Most of the LAB produced substances that could inhibit the growth of S. enteritidis and/or E. coli K88 in vitro. The potency of these anti-pathogen effects varied greatly between the individual bacterial strains. A proportion of LAB had high activity against S. enteritidis but low activity against E. coli K88 and vice-versa, but the majority had similar activities against both pathogens.
- Thirty-three strains were selected on the basis of anti-microbial potency as determined in vitro. These bacteria were further screened for their ability to block adherence/invasion of intestinal pig epithelial cells (IPEC) by pathogens in vitro and their susceptibility to antibiotics.
- Twenty-three strains were assayed for substrate range and specificity and their capacity to suppress inflammation in IPEC cells in vitro. From these, fourteen LAB (5 L. johnsonii, 6 L. reuteri and 3 L. plantarum) with particularly favourable properties were identified.
- Two LAB strains [GGDK266 and GGDK31] were prepared in bulk for in vivo evaluation in newly-weaned piglets. Other potentially important candidate strains were present in this set of 14 LAB.
- The survival and viability of LAB after freeze drying in various solutions was also evaluated. Small losses in viability were evident on prolonged storage of samples dried with skimmed milk powder. This was less marked when skimmed milk powder and sugars were used. However, the latter preparations were hygroscopic and were difficult to maintain. It was therefore decided to use a skimmed milk powder suspension for freeze drying and storage of LAB. The bulk preparations of GGDK266 and GGDK31 were freeze-dried in this medium.
- Heat stability is a useful feature for LAB to be used in pelleted animal foods. Five heat-conditioned viable strains of isolated pig LAB were obtained. However, the biological properties in vitro and probiotic potential of three of the strains were adversely affected by heat-treatment. Nonetheless, two of the bacteria retained the biological properties of their native non-heat-treated forms.
- Five pig LAB (L. reuteri [4] or L. mucosae [1]) were tested for ability to ameliorate salmonellosis in vivo. Treatment of mice with these LAB greatly reduced the pathogenicity of S. enteritidis.

- DNA is extracted from faecal or tissue samples utilizing the MP Bio FastDNA™ spin kit for soil sample—116560000. The DNA is then amplified using Muyzer primers, as it is essential to use primers with a GC Clamp to be run on the gel. For samples of lactobacillus, specialised lactobacillus primers with a GC clamp were used.

DGGE can be utilised to visualise the differences in microbial diversity between samples. DNA obtained from a range of samples can be used in DGGE e.g. tissue and faecal samples. Bands on the gel were visualised using silver staining.
- Molecular analysis and gene expression profiles of pig tissues
RNA extraction and Affymetrix Microarray analysis - RNA was isolated from both animal tissue and cultured cells for use on Affymetrix GeneChips. For animal tissue, approximately 200 mg tissue sample was removed from RNAlater (Ambion) and lyzed in Trizol (Invitrogen) using a polytron homogenizer. The tissue was further homogenized by passing the lysate through a syringe fitted with a 19G needle 3-5 times. The samples were incubated for 5 min at RT to permit the complete dissociation of nucleoprotein complexes. Then, chloroform, isopropanol and ethanol steps were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 0.2 mL of chloroform was added per 1 mL of Trizol, vortexed and incubated at RT for 5 min. The samples were centrifuged at 12,000×g for 15 min at 4° C. The resultant aqueous phase was transferred to a fresh tube, and the RNA was precipitated by the addition of 0.5 mL of isopropanol per 1 mL of Trizol. The tubes were shaken vigorously by hand for 10s, incubated at 4° C. for 10 min and centrifuged at 12,000×g for 10 min at 4° C.
- The RNA precipitate was washed with ice-cold 75% ethanol, adding at least 1 mL of 75% ethanol per 1 mL of Trizol. The samples were vortexed and centrifuged at 7,400×g for 5 min at 4° C. After air-drying the resultant RNA pellet, the RNA was resuspended in up to 100 μL RNase-free water. Total RNA was further extracted with the RNeasy kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's instructions, including an RNase-free DNase I (Qiagen) digestion step.
- Cultured cells were homogenized by adding 350 μL Buffer RLT+1% β-mercaptoethanol. The cells were scraped off culture dishes with a filter tip and further homogenized by passing the lysate through a syringe fitted with a 19G needle 3-5 times. The cell lysate was then further processed using the RNeasy kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's instructions, including an RNase-free DNase I (Qiagen) digestion step.
- RNA concentration and integrity was ascertained using a Nanodrop instrument and/or Agilent Bioanalyzer, and purified RNA was stored at −70° C.
- 250 ng RNA was processed for Affymetrix GeneChips using the
GeneChip 3′ IVT Express Kit (Affymetrix) according to the manufacturer's instructions. aRNA quality was determined byAgilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Hybridization to the GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 and GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 (Affymetrix) on a GeneChip Fluidics Station 450 (Affymetrix) was performed at the Institute of Medical Sciences Microarray Core Facility (University of Aberdeen, UK). Chips were scanned with an Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner 3000 (Affymetrix). Image quality analysis was performed using Gene Chip Operating Software (GCOS) (Affymetrix). Further quality analysis, normalization (gcRMA), statistical analysis and heatmap generation was performed with the freely available software packages R (http://www.r-project.org) and Bioconductor (http://www.bioconductor.org). Microarray data were submitted to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene Expression Omnibus (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo). - The results for pigs fed probiotics GGDK266 and GGDK31 are shown in
FIG. 20 . DWG (Daily weight gain), FI (food intake) and FCR (feed conversion ratio) are shown below: -
GGDK266 DWG FI FCR D 0- d 7+++ (*) + + D 7- d 14= + + D 0- d 14+ + + - Piglets fed GGDK266 exhibited significantly improved daily weight gain (DWG) during the first week post-weaning relative to GGDK31 and placebo fed piglets.
- Microbial diversity analysis using DGGE (Trial 1)
- DGGE using universal primers revealed no differences in overall microbial diversity between the treatments and placebo (see
FIG. 21 ). - DGGE using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) specific primers revealed significant differences in LAB diversity between treatment with
GGDK 266 and placebo in both caecal and ileal samples (seeFIG. 22 ). - DGGE using LAB specific primers revealed significant differences in LAB diversity between the treatment with GGDK266 and placebo in ileal samples (see
FIG. 23 ). - DGGE using LAB specific primers revealed significant differences in LAB diversity between the treatment with 266 and placebo in caecal samples (see
FIG. 24 ). - Overall the microbial diversity analysis revealed significant clustering of the LAB population in piglets fed GGDK266 indicating that the populations in individual animals on this treatment has a similar and stable microbiota.
- Molecular analysis of ileal tissue samples: Affymetrix pig arrays
Downregulated in GDK266 versus placebo - Gene ontology analysis of differentially expressed gene revealed that a significant reduction in immune system processes and pro-inflammatory activation in response to feeding young piglets probiotic GGDK266 relative to placebo (see
FIG. 25 ). - Results reveal that GGDK266 had a very specific and targeted effect on the immune system and the functional groups associated with response to stimuli (see
FIG. 26 ). - Upregulated in GGDK266 versus Placebo
- In contrast to the effects on the immune system, GGDK266 promoted metabolic processes particularly in relation to nitrogen (see
FIG. 27 ). Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that these effects may explain the improved DWG in animals fed GGDK266. - Top differentially expressed genes between GGDK266 and Placebo
