Abstract

BACKGROUND: Important border structure proteins and Galectin-4 composition. for normal and Damage intestinal Myosin-1a of brush these are proteins by inflammation may alter digestion, absorption and barrier function. Probiotic has been widely known in maintaining gut health. However, the molecular mechanism of Lactobacillus plantarum IS-2056 probiotic in repairing intestinal brush border is not well defined. Therefore, current study was conducted by investigating the Galectin-4 and Myosin-1a expressions in a rodent model. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were induced with/without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and treated with/without L. plantarum IS-2056 probiotic. On the seventh day, duodenum, jejunum, and ileum were collected and analyzed with western blot and immunohistochemistry for Galectin-4 and Myosin-1a expressions. RESULTS: Rats administrated with L. plantarum IS-2056 probiotic showed significant increase of Galectin-4 and Myosin-1a expressions in duodenum, jejunum, and ileum compared to the control group (p<0.05). While in control group, Galectin-4 level tended to increase in more distal of intestinal segment and Myosin-1a level tended to decrease in more distal intestinal segment. CONCLUSION: L. plantarum IS-20506 probiotic may facilitate the repairment of damaged intestinal brush border as demonstrated by significant restoration of Galectin-4 and Myosin-1a expressions in duodenum, jejunum, and ileum of LPS-induced rats.
