ABSTRACT
Next-generation microorganisms have recently gained prominence in the scientific community, mainly due to their probiotic and postbiotic potentials. However, there are few studies that investigate these potentials in food allergy models. Therefore, the present study was designed to evaluate the probiotic potential of Akkermansia muciniphila BAA-835 in an ovalbumin food allergy (OVA) model and also analyse possible postbiotic potential. To access the probiotic potential, clinical, immunological, microbiological, and histological parameters were evaluated. In addition, the postbiotic potential was also evaluated by immunological parameters. Treatment with viable A. muciniphila was able to mitigate weight loss and serum levels of IgE and IgG1 anti-OVA in allergic mice. In addition, the ability of the bacteria to reduce the injury of the proximal jejunum, the eosinophil and neutrophil influx, and the levels of eotaxin-1, CXCL1/KC, IL4, IL6, IL9, IL13, IL17, and TNF, was clear. Furthermore, A. muciniphila was able to attenuate dysbiotic signs of food allergy by mitigating Staphylococcus levels and yeast frequency in the gut microbiota. In addition, the administration of the inactivated bacteria attenuated the levels of IgE anti-OVA and eosinophils, indicating its postbiotic effect. Our data demonstrate for the first time that the oral administration of viable and inactivated A. muciniphila BAA-835 promotes a systemic immunomodulatory protective effect in an in vivo model of food allergy to ovalbumin, which suggests its probiotic and postbiotic properties.
