AIMS: The main objective of the present study was to assess and compare the safety and inhibitory efficacy of Lactobacillus acidophilus against cholera toxin and shigatoxin production by measuring CTX-B and Stx1 expression level in Caco-2 cells exposed to Vibrio cholerae (as a non-invasive small intestine pathogens and Shigella dysenteriae (as an invasive colon pathogen).
METHODS: Caco-2 cells were incubated with L. acidophilus 2 h before infection by V. cholerae and S. dysenteriae. Following RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis, relative toxins mRNA levels were determined according to a comparative critical threshold (Ct) real-time PCR. L. acidophilus didn't show any cytotoxic effect on Caco-2 cells.
RESULTS: L. acidophilus revealed a protective effect for Caco-2 cells against S. dysenteriae and V. cholera by 51% and 57%, respectively, which was determined by MTT assay and further confirmed by morphological examination. Pretreatment of Caco-2 cells with L. acidophilus prior to exposure to V. cholerae, attenuated the CTX-B expression in V. cholerae to about 1.76 folds. Expression of Stx1 by S. dysenteriae was also down-regulated to 1.6 folds following pretreatment of Caco-2 cells by L. acidophilus. No significant difference was observed in the attenuator role of L. acidophilus in toxin production by S. dysenteriae as a colon-invasive bacterium, compared with V. cholerae, the non-invasive pathogen of small intestine.
CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study suggest that L. acidophilus is safe with protective effect for human epithelial colorectal cells, and is effective enough to be applied as a supplementary treatment for attenuation of toxin production in acute infectious diarrhea caused by V. cholerae and S. dysenteriae.
