Aims: Probiotics are known to maintain intestinal homeostasis through the regulation of the immune response of the host. Hence, the role of histone modifications as epigenetic agents on immune modulations by potential probiotic bacteria has been investigated.
Methods And Results: Human colonic epithelial cells (Caco-2) pre-treated with class I histone deacetylase (HDAC) specific inhibitor, MS-275, were incubated either with potential probiotic bacteria (Limosilactobacillus fermentum MTCC 5898 and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus MTCC 5897) or Escherichia coli (ATCC 14948) as an inflammatory agent. Initially, transcriptional expression of potential immune-related genes (IL-6, IL-8, and hBD-2) was analyzed using RT-qPCR, and later H3 histone acetylation (H3Ac) at the promoter region of these genes was confirmed with a chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay respectively. Potential probiotic L. fermentum (MTCC 5898) significantly suppressed (P < 0.05) the inhibitor-mediated elevated expression of immune-related genes while another strain L. rhamnosus (MTCC 5897), did not influence these gene expression results. In contrast, as an inflammatory agent, E. coli (ATCC 14948) synergistically augmented the expression of immune-related genes. Later, ChIP analysis confirmed the occurrence of H3 acetylation at these genes' promoter regions, which was directly related to the transcriptional activity of host epithelial cells stimulated by L. fermentum and E. coli, respectively. But in the case of L. rhamnosus, MTCC 5897, acetylation did not follow the transcription pattern and potentiated H3Ac on the promoter regions of these genes.
Conclusions: Potential probiotics used in the study were found to regulate the immune response of host cells through histone acetylation in a strain-specific manner.
Significance And Impact Of Study: Occurrence of probiotic-mediated regulation of immune genes by H3 acetylation in a strain-specific manner.

In this study, we developed a double-layer colon-targeted microcapsule. It used the Maillard product of gelatin-isomaltooligosaccharide (GI180) and zein-shellac complex (ZS) as bio-based materials, plant extracts (MPL) and Lactobacillus plantarum JJBYG12 (JJBYG12) were co-encapsulated, endowing them with strong resistance to harsh environments and precise intestinal adhesion and targeting ability. The research results indicated that ZS11 exhibits hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions.

Layer-by-Layer (LbL) self-assembly encapsulation is a promising technology for the protection and delivery of lactic acid bacteria. However, laboratory-scale encapsulation is often time-consuming, involves intensive protocols tailored for small-scale operations, requires substantial amounts of energy and water, and results in a low yield of encapsulated biomass. Scaling-up this process to a bench-bioreactor scale is not simply a matter of increasing culture volume as different key parameters (not particularly relevant at lab scale) become critical, including biomass production, the number of polymer layers, and the biomass-to-polymer mass ratio.
