Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of dietary avoidance therapy on gut microbiota in infants who were diagnosed as cow′s milk protein allergy by comparing the gut microbiota changes before and after the treatment.Methods:The infants with artificial feeding and clinical diagnosis of cow′s milk protein allergy were collected from the outpatient of Gastroenterology departement in our hospital.They were fed with amino acid formula instead of ordinary formula for 4 weeks.Among them, 23 cases of successful intervention were selected.The fecal samples before and after treatment were collected, and the fecal genomes were extracted respectively.The PCR products of specific segments of 16S rDNA were sequenced by high-throughput sequencing.The results were analyzed by bioinformatics, and the differences of flora composition before and after the intervention were compared to find the different species between groups.Results:No obvious difference was found between before and after treatment of gut microbiota diversity( P>0.05). The compose of gut microbiota of the cow′s milk protein allergy was changed after feeding with amino acid milk.At the level of phylum, proteobacteria decreased significantly after treatment.At the level of class, alphaproteobacteria and gammaproteobacteria decreased significantly.Enterobacteriaceae, enterobacteriaceae and streptococcus granulosus decreased significantly.At the family level, the number of peptostridium, peptostridium and clostridium decreased significantly compared with that before treatment.Lactobacillus eubacteriaceae and eubacterium, ruminococcaceae, limosum, pasteurella, pasteurellaceae, haemophilus parainfluenzae T3T1, infantis ATCC15697/JCM1222/DSM2008 and Pseudocatenulatum-DSM20438/JCM1200/LMG10505 were higher than that before treatment with statistically different( P<0.05). Conclusion:For children with cow′s milk protein allergy, the harmful bacteria in intestinal flora decreased and the beneficial bacteria increased after dietary avoidance treatment.
