| Sumario: | Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory condition involving dysregulated immune responses and imbalances in the gut microbiota in genetically susceptible individuals. Current therapies for IBD often have significant side-effects and limited success, prompting the search for novel therapeutic strategies. Microbiome-based approaches aim to restore the gut microbiota balance towards anti-inflammatory and mucosa-healing profiles. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from beneficial gut microbes are emerging as potential postbiotics. Serotonin plays a crucial role in intestinal homeostasis, and its dysregulation is associated with IBD severity. Our study investigated the impact of EVs from the probiotic Nissle 1917 (EcN) and commensal E. coli on intestinal serotonin metabolism under inflammatory conditions using an IL-1 beta-induced inflammation model in Caco-2 cells. We found strain-specific effects. Specifically, EcN EVs reduced free serotonin levels by upregulating SERT expression through the downregulation of miR-24, miR-200a, TLR4, and NOD1. Additionally, EcN EVs mitigated IL-1 beta-induced changes in tight junction proteins and oxidative stress markers. These findings underscore the potential of postbiotic interventions as a therapeutic approach for IBD and related pathologies, with EcN EVs exhibiting promise in modulating serotonin metabolism and preserving intestinal barrier integrity. This study is the first to demonstrate the regulation of miR-24 and miR-200a by probiotic-derived EVs. |
