摘要： The gut microbiota, a pivotal component of the intestinal mucosal barrier, is critical for host resistance to enteric pathogen infection. Here, we report a novel function of the potentially probiotic Lactococcus garvieae strain LG1 (L. garvieae strain LG1) in maintaining intestinal mucosal barrier integrity and protecting against foodborne Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) infection. L. garvieae was isolated from the intestinal contents of Chinese Mongolian sheep (MS) and exhibited potential probiotic properties. In a C. perfringens enterocolitis model, L. garvieae-pretreated mice were less susceptible to C. perfringens infection compared with Phosphate buffered solution (PBS)-pretreated mice, which manifested as higher survival rates, lower pathogen loads, less weight loss, mild clinical symptoms and intestinal damage, and minor inflammation. Further mechanistic analysis showed that L. garvieae could ameliorate the disruption of intestinal permeability and maintain the integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier by promoting the expression of tight junction proteins and mucoproteins. Moreover, L. garvieae was also able to facilitate antimicrobial peptide expression and ameliorate dysbiosis of the gut microbiota caused by C. perfringens. Together, these findings highlight the prospect of immunomodulatory potentially probiotic L. garvieae and might offer valuable strategies for prophylaxis and/or treatment of pathogenic C. perfringens mucosal infection.
