Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LGG) is well documented strain with wide clinical applications. We investigated herein the possible protection role of LGG in against early preneoplastic colon carcinogenesis Aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in rat model. Sprague Dawley rats were pre-treated with or without LGG via oral gavage, followed by ACF induction with Dimethylhydrazine (DMH). LGG treated groups showed significant decrease in total number of ACF’s, and increased Bax, P53, and Caspase-3 proteins expression with significant attenuation of NFkB, Cox2 and β catenin expression compared to DMH group. Serum cytokines array revealed significant elevation of IL-2, IL-6, and IFN-γ, and attenuated level of IL-10 in LGG+DMH treated animals. Finally, the 16S rRNA fecal microbiome genomic analysis showed that LGG alters the gut microbiome structure, composition and functions at phylum, family and genus level. Collectively, LGG reduces colon ACFs incidence and multiplicity via inhibition of pro-carcinogenesis biomarkers and modulate the gut microbiome.

Rice has a long history as a staple food consumed by half of the world’s population. Compared with white rice (WR), colored rice (CR) has more nutritional value because it contains rich active ingredients. In this study, the potential mechanism of CR (red rice (RR), green rice (GR), black rice (BR), and purple rice (PR)) for immunomodulation was explored by UPLC-Q-TOF, network pharmacology, and cell experiment. kuromanin, kaempferol-3-O-arabinoside, keracyanin, guajavarin, and hispidulin in CR were the critical components for improving immunity. These ingredients are mainly found in BR. Cell experiments supported that kuromanin plays a role in maintaining immune homeostasis. In the normal environment, it promotes cell proliferation and improves DNA repair; In an inflammatory environment, it binds to AKT1 and reduces the release of inflammatory factors through the MAPK and NFKB signaling pathways. The study provides a guideline for humans to utilize the precise nutrition of CR.
