Controversial results were yielded in some studies on the effects of Lactobacillus on ulcerative colitis (UC). In this work, we evaluated the effect of live or heat-killed Lactobacillus plantarum Zhang-LL cells and cell supernatants on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC in rats. The tested subjects were gavaged to rats for 7 days, and then 5% was used DSS repeatedly to induce chronic UC. The results of a 42-day experiment, indicated consistently and significantly that Both living and heat-killed cells of L. plantarum Zhang-LL could down-regulate content of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, INF-γ) in serum, reduce intestinal permeability by increasing the expression of tight junction proteins zo-1, claudin-1 and occludin in colon tissue, and maintain intestinal microbiota stability by increasing intestinal microbiota diversity to alleviate the symptoms of chronic UC in rats with 100% survival rate. Of concern is, the heat-killed cells of L. plantarum Zhang-LL were more effective against DSS-induced chronic UC in rats.
