ABSTRACT
The oral administration of probiotics is nowadays recognized as a strategy to treat or prevent the consequences of unhealthy dietary habits. Here we analyze and compare the effects of the oral administration of vegetative cells or spores of Shouchella clausii SF174 in counteracting gut dysfunctions induced by 6 weeks of high fructose intake in a rat model. Gut microbiota composition, tight junction proteins, markers of inflammation and redox homeostasis were evaluated in ileum and colon in rats fed fructose rich diet and supplemented with cells or spores of Shouchella clausii SF174. Our results show that both spores and cells of SF174 were effective in preventing the fructose-induced metabolic damage to the gut, namely establishment of "leaky gut", inflammation and oxidative damage, thus preserving gut function. Our results also suggest that vegetative cells and germination-derived cells metabolize part of the ingested fructose at the ileum level.
