Here, we assessed the ability of E. coli Nissle 1917 (EcN; free and chitosan-alginate microencapsulated) to reduce C. jejuni colonization in chickens and measured the effect of EcN on the immune responses, intestinal morphology, and gut microbes of chickens.
To achieve colon tissue targeting effects, the HPN nanoparticles were conjugated to the surface of modified probiotic Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN). To enhance the bacteriotherapy of EcN, we encapsulated EcN cells with a poly-norepinephrine (NE) layer that can protect EcN against environmental assaults to improve the viability of EcN in Probiotics, such as Escherichia coli Nissle 1917, are microorganisms that confer beneficial physiological or therapeutic activities. For example, some probiotics can alleviate intestinal inflammation and irritable bowel syndrome, strengthen host innate immune functions or protect the intestinal barrier against pathogens 2 , 3 , 4 . Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) is an endotoxin-free probiotic in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases. However, two cryptic plasmids are stable in EcN causing metabolic burden, which limits its application in genetic engineering. Benefiting from its good biocompatibility and ideal targeting ability as a biological carrier, Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (ECN) has been focused on the treatment strategies of inflammatory bowel disease and tumor. The advantage of a bacterial carrier is that it can express exogenous protein while also acting as a natural capsule by releasing Thus, the use of strictly defined probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics may become an alternative form of IBD therapy. There is evidence that treatment with certain probiotic strains, e.g., VSL#3 and Escherischia coli Nissle 1917, is an effective form of therapy to induce remission in patients with mild to moderate UC. So far, the effectiveness Although the probiotic Escherichia coli strain Nissle 1917 has been used for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases, the precise mechanisms of action of this strain remain unclear. In the present study, we estimated the anti-inflammatory effect of E. coli Nissle 1917 on inflammatory responses … 2z30.
