Heat-Killed Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Repairs Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Damage via MLCK/MLC Pathway Activation.

ABSTRACT: Intestinal epithelial barrier function is closely associated with the development of many intestinal diseases. Heat-killed Lacticaseibacillus paracasei (HK-LP) has been shown to improve intestinal health and enhance immunity. However, the function of HK-LP in the intestinal barrier is still unclear. This study characterized the inflammatory effects of seven HK-LP (1 μg/mL) on the intestinal barrier using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (100 μg/mL)-induced Caco-2 cells. In this study, HK-LP 6105, 6115, and 6235 were selected, and their effects on the modulation of inflammatory factors and tight junction protein expression (claudin-1, zona occludens-1, and occludin) were compared. The effect of different cultivation times (18 and 48 h) was investigated in response to LPS-induced intestinal e
