dc.description.abstract | The ability to adhere to the intestinal mucus layer is an important property of probiotic bacteria. <i>Lactobacillus reuteri</i> strains ZJ615 and ZJ617 show low and high adhesion, respectively, to intestinal epithelial cells. In this study, we quantified bacterial cell wall-associated glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases (cw-GAPDH) and bacterial cell membrane permeability in both strains using immunoblotting and flow cytometry, respectively. Highly adhesive <i>L. reuteri</i> ZJ617 possessed significantly more cw-GAPDH, higher cell membrane permeability, and significantly higher adhesive ability toward mucin compared with low-adhesive <i>L. reuteri</i> ZJ615. In vitro adhesion studies and analysis of interaction kinetics using the Octet, the system revealed significantly decreased interaction between <i>L. reuteri</i> and mucin when mucin was oxidized when bacterial surface proteins were removed when bacteria were heat-inactivated at 80 °C for 30 min, and when the interaction was blocked with an anti-GAPDH antibody. SWISS-MODEL analysis suggested intensive interactions between mucin glycans (GalNAcα1-O-Ser, GalNAcαSer, and Galβ3GalNAc) and GAPDH. Furthermore, in vivo studies revealed significantly higher numbers of bacteria adhering to the jejunum, ileum, and colon of piglets orally inoculated with <i>L. reuteri</i> ZJ617 compared with those inoculated with <i>L. reuteri</i> ZJ615; this led to a significantly decreased rate of diarrhea in piglets inoculated with <i>L. reuteri</i> ZJ617. In conclusion, there are strong correlations among the abundance of cw-GAPDH in <i>L. reuteri</i>, the ability of the bacterium to adhere to the host, and the health benefits of this probiotic. | en |
