Abstract
The antidiabetic effect of Lactobacillus is increasingly recognized worldwide. In this research, the hypoglycemic activity of Lactobacillus casei CCFM419 was investigated in mice with high-fat and low-dose streptozotocin induced type 2 diabetes. Oral L. casei CCFM419 administration favourably regulated blood glucose balance, increased glucose tolerance and protected islets in the diabetic mice, accompanied by an improvement in lipid metabolism. The homeostasis model of insulin resistance, insulin level and insulin tolerance test and mRNA expression of PI3K/Akt signalling pathway indexes revealed that L. casei CCFM419 had a positive effect on insulin resistance. Furthermore, treatment with L. casei CCFM419 recovered the level of short-chain fatty acids and increased the abundance of butyrate-producing bacteria, such as Allobaculum and Bacteriodes. These results demonstrated that L. casei CCFM419 had the potential ability to ameliorate insulin resistance and hyperglycaemic in type 2 diabetic mice through underlying PI3K/Akt signalling pathway and short-chain fatty acids/gut microbiota pathways.Entities:
