| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Intestinal lactobacilli in immune-deficient scid mice were distinct from those in control mice, i.e. L. murinus (LM) for scid and L. johnsonii (LJ) for control, respectively, which were closely related with the loose and solid properties of the caecal and colonal contents of scid and control mice, respectively. LJ contained LacTH-DG and LacTetH-DG, both of which were modified LacDH-DG with Galα1-6 linkage, whereas, LM contained LacβTH-DG modified LacDH-DG with Glcβ1-6 linkage. Since natural antibodies toward LacTH-DG and LacTetH-DG were frequently detected in human sera, irrespective of ABO-blood groups, in the similar intensities as those toward blood groups- and species-specific glycolipids, immune system is involved in the establishment of symbiotic relationship with bacteria in the intestine. On the other hand, enhanced fucosylation of GA1 as a receptor for LJ occurred in the digestive tracts of scid mice, probably to interfere the formation of bacterial flora of LJ by LM.
