Currently, the regulation of Lactobacillus on intestinal stem cells (ISCs) attracts broad attention, but their active ingredients and the underlying mechanism are worthy of further study. Previously, host intestinal commensal bacteria were verified to drive the differentiation of ISCs. In this study, the strong bacteriostatic activity of Lactobacillus salivarius and Lactobacillus agilis were illustrated, and the components (supernatant, precipitation) of L. salivarius or L. agilis were further demonstrated to decrease the differentiation of ISCs in vivo. Interestingly, antibiotics feeding decreased ISCs differentiation in vivo as well. However, the administration of L. salivarius supernatant following antibiotics feeding was shown to promote ISCs differentiation dramatically when compared with the antibiotics feeding group, indicating that some active ingredients existed in its supernatant to promote ISCs activity. Strikingly, in vitro, the treatment of L. salivarius supernatant was further confirmed to promote the intestinal organoids' size, budding, and LGR5 expression. Next, the metabolomics analysis of Lactobacilli' supernatants suggested that succinate might be a crucial metabolite to promote ISCs activity. Further, the succinate treatment in vitro (1000 µM) and in vivo (50 mM) was confirmed to enhance the expression of LGR5 and PCNA. SLC13A3 (a sodium/dicarboxylate cotransporter) was detected in the intestinal organoids and demonstrated to transport succinate into ISCs, as confirmed by the contact of FITC-succinate with ISCs nucleus. Subsequently, high mitochondrial membrane potential and reactive oxygen species levels appeared in the intestinal organoids upon succinate treatment. Collectively, the promotion of L. salivarius on ISCs activity is associated with succinate-induced mitochondrial energy metabolism. IMPORTANCE In our previous study, Lactobacillus salivarius and Lactobacillus agilis were demonstrated to regulate intestinal stem cell activity in hens, but their active ingredients and the underlying mechanism remain unclear. In this study, L. salivarius supernatant was shown to directly promote intestinal stem cell activity. Furthermore, the succinate (a critical metabolite of L. salivarius) was screened out to promote intestinal stem cell activity. Moreover, the succinate was confirmed to enter intestinal stem cells and induce high mitochondrial energy metabolism, finally promoting intestinal stem cell activity. These findings will advance uncovering the mechanism by which Lactobacillus regulate intestinal stem cell activity in chickens.
