摘要

目前便秘已成为影响生活质量的重要因素,某些益生菌可能通过调节肠道菌群缓解便秘症状。然而,益生菌的功能具有高度菌株特异性,因此其作用需在菌株水平上进行评估。这项以干预前后自身为对照的临床试验旨在探讨动物双歧杆菌乳亚种BL-99干预便秘人群肠道菌群变化及功能通路差异。该研究纳入21名存在便秘困扰的受试者进行试验,服用含BL-99的发酵酸奶(1×1011 CFU/d),设置干预期4周,跟踪期2周。收集便秘患者症状自评量表和粪便,以干预前后自身为对照,将粪便进行宏基因组测序后重建基因组进行分析。结果表明,BL-99干预后,受试者的便秘症状得到有效改善,且效果持续至干预结束后至少2周。动物双歧杆菌_B和未分类的双歧杆菌平均相对丰度显著升高(P<0.05),干预前后的差异基因富集于氨基酸生物合成、辅酶因子生物合成、核糖体等KEGG通路中,碳水化合物活性酶分析显示,差异基因主要集中在糖苷水解酶家族13、糖基转移酶家族2和碳水化合物结合模块48。综上所述,动物双歧杆菌_B和未分类的双歧杆菌可作为BL-99改善便秘症状的生物标志物,BL-99干预可引起氨基酸生物合成通路、相关的碳水化合物活性酶等功能的改变,为其改善便秘提供了理论依据。

Abstract

Constipation has become an important factor affecting quality of life, and probiotics may improve constipation symptoms by modulating the gut microbiota.However, probiotic functions exhibit high strain specificity, necessitating evaluation at the strain level.This self-controlled clinical trial aimed to investigate changes in gut microbiota and functional pathways in constipated individuals following intervention with Bifidobacterium animalis subsp.lactis BL-99.This study enrolled 21 subjects suffering from constipation to undergo the trial, administering fermented yogurt containing BL-99 (1×1011 CFU/d) for a 4-week intervention period followed by a 2-week follow-up.This study collected patient assessment of constipation-symptom and fecal samples.Fecal samples underwent metagenomic sequencing and genome reconstruction for analysis using a self-controlled design.The results indicates that BL-99 intervention effectively improves constipation symptoms in participants, with effects persisting for at least two weeks post-intervention.The average relative abundance of Bifidobacterium animalis_B and unclassified Bifidobacterium significantly increase (P<0.05).Differential genes before and after intervention are enriched in KEGG pathways including biosynthesis of amino acids, biosynthesis of cofactors, and ribosome.Analysis of carbohydrate-active enzymes reveals that differential genes are primarily concentrated in glycoside hydrolase family 13, glycosyl transferase family 2, and carbohydrate-binding module family 48.These findings suggest that Bifidobacterium animalis_B and unclassified Bifidobacterium may serve as microbial markers for constipation relief efficacy by BL-99 intervention.BL-99 intervention induces functional alterations in biosynthesis of amino acids pathways and related carbohydrate-active enzymes, providing theoretical support for intervening in constipation.
