| Abstract | Background Human defensin-5 (HD-5) is a key antimicrobial peptide which plays an important role in host immune defense, while the short half-life greatly limits its clinical application. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of an engineering probiotic producing HD-5 on intestinal barrier and explore its underlying mechanism Methods We constructed the pN8148-SHD-5 vector, and transfected this plasmid into Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) to create the recombinant NZ9000SHD-5 strain, which continuously produces mature HD-5. NZ9000SHD-5 was administrated appropriately in a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis model. Alterations in the wounded intestine were analyzed by hematoxylin–eosin staining. The changes of intestinal permeability were detected by FITC-dextran permeability test, the tight junction (TJ) proteins ZO-1 and occludin and cytokines were analyzed by western blotting or enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. In Caco-2 cell monolayers, the permeability were analyzed by transepithelial electrical resistance, and the TJ proteins were detected by western blotting and immunofluorescence. In addition, NF-κB signaling pathway was investigated to further analyze the molecular mechanism of NZ9000SHD-5 treatment on inducing intestinal protection in vitro. Results We found oral administration with NZ9000SHD-5 significantly reduced colonic glandular structure destruction and inflammatory cell infiltration, downregulated expression of several inflammation-related molecules and preserved epithelial barrier integrity. The same protective effects were observed in in vitro experiments, and pretreatment of macrophages with NZ9000SHD-5 culture supernatants prior to LPS application significantly reduced the expression of phosphorylated nuclear transcription factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65 and its inhibitor IκBα. Conclusions These results indicate the NZ9000SHD-5 can alleviate DSS-induced mucosal damage by suppressing NF-κB signaling pathway, and NZ9000SHD-5 may be a novel therapeutic means for ulcerative colitis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
