This study aimed to explore the mechanism by which Limosilactobacillus reuteri FQ56 alleviates hyperuricemia in mice through comparative genomics analysis.A total of 24 male Kunming mice, aged 5 weeks, were selected for the study and were given daily intervention with L.reuteri at a dose of 109 CFU.For the final two weeks, hyperuricemia was induced by the uricase inhibitor potassium oxonate and hypoxanthine.At the end of the experiment, serum uric acid levels, xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity, kidney damage, and changes in gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) levels were assessed.Results showed that L.reuteri FQ56 significantly reduced serum uric acid levels in the mice, inhibited the activity of XOD in both the liver and serum, and alleviated kidney damage induced by hyperuricemia.Additionally, L.reuteri FQ56 increased the abundance of SCFA-producing bacteria, such as Roseburia and Eubacterium_xylanophilum, and raised SCFA concentrations in the feces of the mice.Comparative genomics analysis revealed that the FQ56 strain possesses a greater number of glycoside hydrolase genes, particularly from the GH1 family.These genes may help regulate gut microbiota composition and promote the hydrolysis of polysaccharides in the gut, thereby stimulating SCFA production in the colon and inhibiting XOD activity in both serum and liver, ultimately alleviating hyperuricemia.This study provides new insights into the mechanisms by which probiotics alleviate hyperuricemia, particularly the role of glycoside hydrolase genes in this process, offering a theoretical basis for future research and clinical applications.
