The intestinal flora has become very active in studies related to Parkinson's disease (PD) in recent years. The microbe-gut-brain axis is closely related to the maintenance of brain homeostasis as well as PD pathogenesis. Alterations in gut bacteria can contribute to neuroinflammation and dopamine (DA) neurodegeneration. Lactobacillus murinus, a gram-positive bacterium, is a commensal gut bacteria present in the mammalian gut and considered as a potential probiotic due to its beneficial effects, including anti-inflammatory and antibacterial actions. In this study, the effects of live L. murinus and heat-killed L. murinus on DA neuronal damage in rats and the underlying mechanisms were investigated. Data showed that heat-killed L. murinus ameliorated 6-hydroxydopamine-induced motor dysfunctions and loss of substantia nigra DA neurons, while no protection was shown in live L. murinus treatment. At the same time, heat-killed L. murinus reduced the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in microglia and the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors, thus inhibiting the development of neuroinflammation. Furthermore, heat-killed L. murinus failed to display its original neuroprotective properties in NLRP3 inflammasome knockout mice. Together, heat-killed L. murinus conferred neuroprotection against DA neuronal loss via the inhibition of microglial NLRP3 inflammasome activation. These findings provide a promising potential for future applications of L. murinus, and also beneficial strategy for PD treatment.
