Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

[0083] FIG. 1 shows a schematic of the Brain-Vagus Nerve-Microbiome axis; in other words communication between the central nervous system and the microbiota through the Vagus Nerve. The Vagus Nerve’s afferent fibers can be stimulated by microbiota components either directly or indirectly via gut endocrine cells (GEC). FIG. 1 has been obtained from review article, Bonaz B., Bazin T. and Pellissier S. (2018) The Vagus Nerve at the Interface of the Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis. Front. Neurosci. 12:49. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2018.00049

[0084] FIGS. 2 (A)-(C) show the cytokine levels for eight (8) different cytokines in human monocytes when treated with various metabolites and controls.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN EMBODIMENTS

Vagus Nerve and Associated Diseases, Disorders, and Conditions

[0085] Vagus Nerve, a key element of the autonomic nervous system and the 10.sup.th cranial nerve modulates, inter alia, the brain-gut axis (i.e. the bidirectional interactions between the brain and the gut; see FIG. 1). The Vagus nerve is a mixed nerve with ⅘ afferent and ⅕ efferent fibers. The Vagus nerve has connections to almost every major organ in the body, overseeing a vast range of crucial functions. It carries information between the brain and the internal organs in both the directions, acting as a sort of super communication highway. It connects among others to ears, throat, larynx, esophagus, lungs, trachea, heart, aorta, kidneys, pancreas, portal vein, biliary system, spleen, bladder, adrenal gland and most of the digestive track such as liver, esophagus, stomach, and most of the intestines. Vagus nerve is involved among other activities in regulating the immunity, metabolism, and inflammation. For example, the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) is a neuroimmune pathway activated by Vagus nerve stimulation. Signals from the Vagus nerve are transmitted to immune cells in the spleen, which release the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and acetylcholine, inducing a series of reactions that reduce proinflammatory cytokines, relieving inflammation. In another example, action potentials originating in the Vagus nerve regulate T cells, which in turn produce the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine, required to control innate immune responses. Given the vast connections of the Vagus nerve with various organs in the body, improper functioning of the Vagus nerve is suspected in many diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, autism spectrum disorders, Rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, heart failure, diabetes, abnormal heart rhythm, IBD, fatty liver disease, depression, epilepsy, Bipolar Disorder, anxiety, PTSD, MS, Autoimmune Diseases, Obesity, AP, Eye Diseases including Retinal Ischemia/Reperfusion (I/R) Injury, COPD, Mood Disorders, Migraine and Cluster Headache, Eating disorders, Anorexia, Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis, Endocrine Tumor and Vagal Paragangliomas, Heartburn, GERD, SIBO, IBS, Celiac Disease, Chronic Constipation, Kidney Diseases, Infertility including Endometriosis, Aging, blood vessel diseases etc.

[0086] As the Vagus nerve is a conduit connecting organs to the brain and carry signals between them, the end to end process between various such connected organs and the brain via the Vagus nerve, performs sub-optimally if one or more of this system’s major components (i) one or more organs, (ii) nerve endings, (iii) nerve fibers, and (iv) brain are not performing as expected. Any one or more of these four major components could be partially compromised (i.e. not functioning as expected, dysfunctional, or sub-performing), examples including but not limited to:

[0087] i. One or more compromised organs could provide misinformation to its local Vagus nerve endings, which is then subsequently communicated to the brain via the nerve fibers.

[0088] ii. Damaged nerve endings could provide faulty signals even if the nerve fibers were working fine. For example, chronic exposure to toxins could cause such damage.

[0089] iii. Compromised/damaged nerve fibers, for example cells making-up the Vagus nerve fibers could have one or more of sub-optimal mitochondrial, lysosomal, proteasomal, and peroxisomal functions. In some embodiments, compromised/damaged nerve fibers, for example cells making-up the Vagus nerve fibers could have one or more cellular components, such as Golgi bodies, ribosomes, etc. that are sub-optimal. Such diminished cellular functionality could also result in distorted signal delivery as described above, even if the nerve endings, respective connected organs, and the brain were fine. Chronic inflammation of the nerve fibers is another factor that could damage the underlying cells resulting in distorted signaling. Furthermore, sustained misfiring or the distorted control signals sent by the brain could also compromise the nerve fibers.

[0090] iv. A compromised brain such as with faulty Vagus nerve ending, or with beta amyloids, tangles, or other neuronal damage could also misinterpret the received signals or provide inappropriate regulating signals to the connected organs. For example, misfired signal from brain to an organ could play a role in cytokines storm. In another case, one or more metabolites from bad microbes are able to cross the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) resulting in chronic neuronal inflammation. Furthermore, sustained or frequent distorted signals received by the brain via Vagus nerve could also increase neuro inflammation and/or possibly result in cognitive impairment.

[0091] Such sub-optimal system will manifest among others as reduced signaling efficacy of the Vagus nerve expressed in terms of the signal characteristics such as frequency, amplitude, phase, duration, polarization, and shape of the signal. Other characteristics include the strength of the signal such as energy delivered, power delivered etc. Some of the examples include: [0092] i. Either amplifying the signal when not needed or unnecessarily attenuating it [0093] ii. The delivered signal could have amplitude that is outside the operating band [0094] iii. Dropping the signal all together [0095] iv. Frequency of the signals could be slower or faster than normal, or outside of the expected operating band [0096] v. Phase of the signal could be distorted [0097] vi. Polarization could be different than expected [0098] vii. Range between min and max of any of the characteristics is expanded or narrowed [0099] viii. Signal strength expressed as the amount of energy delivered could be higher or lower than normal [0100] ix. Signal power such as the ramp-up or down time of signal could be different than normal [0101] x. Jumbled signal with no discernible pattern [0102] xi. Misfiring of the signals when there is no apparent reason [0103] xii. Partially cut off or distorted signal [0104] xiii. Spacing between signals could be compromised [0105] xiv. Nerve fibers that are in close proximity but providing conflicting signals [0106] xv. Nerve endings in close proximity but providing conflicting signals [0107] xvi. One or more combinations of the above

[0108] In short, the signal travelling along the Vagus nerve could be distorted at the origin, along the way through the nerve fibers, or at the receiver. Thus, such distorted signal will result in actions that are at best sub-optimal, or at worst damaging if sustained over time.

[0109] Any of the above could lead to chronic inflammation; neuronal, Vagus nerve, or at one or more organs connected to the Vagus Nerve, and sub-optimal immunity control, thus further adversely impacting the functioning of various organs including all four major system components described above. This condition then manifests as various diseases and form a vicious cycle.

[0110] Signals traveling via the Vagus nerve report to the brain to expect certain corresponding composition of the blood. A sub-quality signal of any form could create an expectation that may be mismatched or miss what should have been reported.

Microbial Preparation(s) and/or Component(s)

[0111] The present disclosure provides systems and methods comprising certain microbes and their metabolites that may work in a way to improve the functioning of one or more major components of the system described herein (e.g. Vagus nerve system): [0112] i. Improve the functionality of one or more organs by improving the underlying cell level functionality, and by appropriately enhancing regulation of inflammation, metabolism, and immunity; [0113] ii. Improve the cells comprising the nerve endings in a similar way, thereby enhancing the quality of sensing and delivery of the control signals; [0114] iii. Strengthen (restore the functionality, (e.g. fully or partially)) the cells forming the nerve fiber, and/or reduce its inflammation, thus improving the quality of communication through each such fiber; and [0115] iv. Largely restore the cellular level functionality within the brain and reduce neuro inflammation, resulting in improving the quality of signal emanating from the brain, and interpretation of the signals received by it.

[0116] These functionality enhancements of the major components across several dimensions provide an improved end to end process. This results in overall healthier components that among other advantages have improved modulation of inflammation and immunity at the organ level, healthier cell level functionality, healthier Vagus nerve, reduced Vagus nerve inflammation, and reduced neuro inflammation thus forming a virtuous cycle.

[0117] The present disclosure provides systems and methods for assessing, characterizing, and identifying one or more microbial strains of a microbiome (e.g. to improve the functioning of one or more major components of Vagus nerve system described herein). For example, the present disclosure provides systems and methods for assessing, characterizing, and identifying one or more microbial strains of a microbiome that have one or more abilities. Such systems and methods can be useful for assessing, characterizing, and identifying one or more microbial strains that affect the health of humans, livestock, and/or pets. In some embodiments, one or more microbial strains affect the health of humans, livestock, and/or pets by modulating their respective metabolomes, cell viability, ATP levels, one or more other parameters or features (e.g. of an organ of a subject), or a combination thereof to prevent, treat, or reduce the risk of suffering from a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. associated with Vagus nerve) as disclosed herein. For example, technologies described herein may result in modulating the metabolome, improve cell viability, increase ATP levels, modulate one or more other parameters or features (e.g. level of cell viability, level or activity of a nucleic acid or protein, or form thereof, mitochondrial function, peroxisomal function, ATP levels, proteasomal function, lysosomal function, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal damage (e.g. with beta amyloids, tangles, etc.), nerve fiber damage, nerve ending damage, brain damage, etc.), or a combination thereof of the subject that results in a decrease in production of toxic components and/or components that suggest or are a marker for cellular damage (e.g. neuronal cellular damage (e.g. increased blood levels of neurofilament light protein (NF-L)) in a subject (e.g. in blood of a subject).

[0118] The present disclosure also provides systems and methods for manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition that comprise assessing, characterizing, and identifying one or more microbial strains of a microbiome.

[0119] In some embodiments, assessing, characterizing, and identifying one or more microbial strains from a microbiome of a snake, lizard, fish, or bird. In some embodiments, assessing, characterizing, and identifying one or more microbial strains from a mammalian microbiome. A mammalian microbiome can be a canine, a feline, an equine, a bovine, an ovine, a caprine, or a porcine microbiome. In some embodiments, a microbiome used in a system or method described herein may prevent or treat a disease or condition.

[0120] A microbiome can be isolated from any system or tissue of an organism that supports microbial growth. For example, a microbiome can be a cutaneous microbiome, an oral microbiome, a nasal microbiome, a gastrointestinal microbiome, a brain microbiome, a pulmonary microbiome, or a urogenital microbiome. A list of exemplary microbial strains found in a gastrointestinal microbiome is included below in Table 1. A microbiome sample can be obtained by various ways. For example, a cutaneous, oral, nasal, pulmonary, or urogenital microbiome sample could be obtained using a swab or tissue scrapping. In some embodiments, a gastrointestinal microbiome could be sampled from feces. A cutaneous microbiome, an oral microbiome, a nasal microbiome, a gastrointestinal microbiome, a brain microbiome, a pulmonary microbiome, or a urogenital microbiome sample could be obtained via a biopsy.

[0121] In some embodiments, a microbiome is a microbiome of a healthy individual or an individual who does not suffer from or is not at risk of developing a particular disease or disorder. In some embodiments, a microbiome is a microbiome of an individual that suffers from or is at risk of developing a particular disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, a microbiome is a microbiome of an individual who is known to suffer from a particular disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, a human microbiome is a microbiome of a human with an unknown risk for one or more diseases, disorders, or conditions.

[0122] In some embodiments, a microbiome is a reference microbiome. A reference microbiome can be a microbiome of a healthy individual or an individual who does not suffer from or is not at risk of developing a particular disease, disorder, or condition. In some instances, a reference microbiome may be from the same individual as a microbiome to be assessed or characterized, but was obtained at a different time. In some instances, a reference microbiome may be from the same individual as a microbiome to be assessed or characterized, but was obtained from a different system or tissue.

[0123] In some embodiments, an individual microbial strain or a combination of microbial strains may be assessed, characterized, or identified in a different relative amount than such strain or strains are found in a microbiome. For example, the effect of modulation of a cell or organism in response to a single strain may be assessed, characterized, or identified using in vitro methods (e.g. mammalian cells) or in vivo methods using mammals (e.g. mice, humans, etc.) as described herein. In some embodiments, for example, the effect of modulation of a cell or organism to treat, prevent, or reduce the risk on a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition as described herein) may be assessed, characterized, or identified using in vitro methods (e.g. mammalian cells) or in vivo methods using mammals (e.g. mice, humans, etc.) as described herein. In some embodiments, for example, the effect of modulation of a cell or organism to treat, prevent, or reduce the risk on a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition as described herein) by modulating one or more metabolites of the cell or organism, one or features or parameters (e.g. level of cell viability, level or activity of a nucleic acid or protein, or form thereof, mitochondrial function, peroxisomal function, ATP levels, proteasomal function, lysosomal function, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal damage (e.g. with beta amyloids, tangles, etc.), nerve fiber damage, nerve ending damage, brain damage, etc.) of the cell or organism, or a combination thereof may be assessed, characterized, or identified using in vitro methods (e.g. mammalian cells) or in vivo methods using mammals (e.g. mice, humans, etc.) as described herein. As another example, the effect of modulation (e.g. of levels of one or more metabolites) of a cell or organism to treat, prevent, or reduce the risk on a disease, disorder, or condition, as described herein, in response to two microbial strains may be assessed, characterized, or identified together using methods described herein.

[0124] An extract, component, or compound of a microbial strain may also be assessed, characterized, or identified using methods described herein. In some cases, an extract, component, or compound of a microbial strain that has been determined to treat, prevent, or reduce the risk on a disease, disorder, or condition, as described herein, in an organism (e.g. mammal) may be assessed, characterized, or identified. Assessing, characterizing or identifying an extract, component, or compound of a microbial strain that treats, prevents, or reduces the risk on a disease, disorder, or condition in an organism (e.g. mammal) may provide additional information about potential biomarkers, targets, or protective agents in a microbiome.

[0125] A variety of technologies can be used to prepare extracts of microbial strains, and/or to isolate extracts, components, or compounds therefrom, or to process (e.g., to isolate and/or purify one or more components or compounds from). To give but a few examples, such technologies may include, for example, one or more of organic extraction, vacuum concentration, chromatography, and so on.

Assessing Biological Impact

[0126] The present disclosure provides the insight that compositions (e.g. microbiome compositions) as described herein can be used to treat, prevent, and/or reduce the risk of a disease, disorder, or condition of an organism (e.g. a mammal (e.g. a human)) by contacting the composition(s) (e.g., feeding the compositions to, administering to) with an organism. In some embodiments, an organism may suffer from or be at risk of suffering from a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. mammalian disease, disorder, or condition). To determine whether one or more compositions treats, prevents, or reduces the risk of a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition), levels of one or more metabolites can be observed, measured, or assessed in samples that have been contacted with the one or more compositions. For example, levels of the one or more metabolites can be observed, measured, or assessed in samples at different times (e.g. before administration of composition, after administration of composition, during administration of composition, etc.). To determine whether one or more compositions treats, prevents, or reduces the risk of a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition), one or more features or parameters may be observed, measured, or assessed in samples that have been contacted with the one or more compositions. For example, one or more features or parameters may be observed, measured, or assessed in samples at different times (e.g. before administration of composition, after administration of composition, during administration of composition, etc.).

[0127] In some embodiments, methods described herein utilize a first sample and a second sample. In some embodiments, a first sample is a reference sample. In some embodiments, a reference sample can be a sample obtained from a subject who is contacted with (e.g., administered or fed) a composition, e.g., CT10 composition, CT6 composition, or CT6m composition. In some embodiments, a reference sample can be a sample obtained from a subject who is contacted with (e.g., administered or fed) a composition, e.g., CT10 composition, CT6 composition, or CT6m composition, at a first time point. In some embodiments, a reference sample can be a sample obtained from a subject prior to being contacted with (e.g., administered or fed) a composition, e.g., CT10 composition, CT6 composition, or CT6m composition. In some embodiments, a reference sample can be a sample obtained from a healthy individual. In some embodiments, a reference sample can be a sample obtained from an individual who is suffering from or may have a risk for a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition). In some embodiments, a reference sample is a control sample. In some embodiments, a reference sample is a negative control sample. In some embodiments, a reference sample is a positive control sample. In some embodiments, a reference sample may be a historic reference (e.g. value across control samples). In some embodiments, a reference sample may be from a printed publication (e.g. a text book, a journal, etc.).

[0128] In some embodiments, a second sample can be a test sample. In some embodiments, a test sample may be a sample obtained from a subject who is contacted with (e.g., administered or fed) a composition, e.g., CT10 composition, CT6 composition, or CT6m composition. In some instances, a subject (e.g. patient or population) may be suffering from or at risk of a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition). In some instances, a subject (e.g. patient or population) may have an unknown risk for one or more diseases, disorders, or conditions as described herein. In some embodiments, a test can be a sample obtained from a subject who is contacted with (e.g., administered or fed) a composition, e.g., CT10 composition, CT6 composition, or CT6m composition, at a second time point.

[0129] In some embodiments, methods described herein comprise comparing one or more metabolite levels (e.g. a metabolome), or one or more parameters or features (e.g. level of cell viability, level or activity of a nucleic acid or protein, or form thereof, mitochondrial function, peroxisomal function, ATP levels, proteasomal function, lysosomal function, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal damage (e.g. with beta amyloids, tangles, etc.), nerve fiber damage, nerve ending damage, brain damage, etc.) obtained from a test sample with one or more metabolite levels (e.g. a metabolome), or one or more parameters or features (e.g. level of cell viability, level or activity of a nucleic acid or protein, or form thereof, mitochondrial function, peroxisomal function, ATP levels, proteasomal function, lysosomal function, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal damage (e.g. with beta amyloids, tangles, etc.), nerve fiber damage, nerve ending damage, brain damage, etc.) obtained from a reference sample. In some embodiments, by comparing one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a test sample with one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a reference sample, a composition described herein can be assessed, characterized or identified as being useful for treating, preventing, or reducing the risk of suffering from a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition) as described herein. In some embodiments, by comparing one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a test sample with one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a reference sample, it can be determined that a composition as disclosed herein increases the severity or incidence of a disease, disorder, or condition phenotype. In some embodiments, by comparing one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a test sample with one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a reference sample, it can be determined that a composition as disclosed herein decreases the severity or incidence of a disease, disorder, or condition phenotype. In some embodiments, by comparing one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a test sample with one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a reference sample, it can be determined that a composition as disclosed herein has no effect on the severity or incidence of a disease, disorder, or condition phenotype. In some embodiments, by comparing one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a test sample with one or more metabolite levels, parameters, or features obtained from a reference sample, it can be determined that a composition as disclosed herein prevents a disease, disorder, or condition phenotype.

[0130] The present disclosure also provides the recognition that compositions and methods provided herein can be used to monitor progression of a disease, disorder, or condition (e.g. a Vagus nerve-associated disease, disorder, or condition) in an individual. For example, if metabolite levels, parameters or features (e.g. level of cell viability, level or activity of a nucleic acid or protein, or form thereof, mitochondrial function, peroxisomal function, ATP levels, proteasomal function, lysosomal function, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal damage (e.g. with beta amyloids, tangles, etc.), nerve fiber damage, nerve ending damage, brain damage, etc.) determined to increase the severity of a disease, disorder, or condition decrease in relative amount, it may indicate that the disease, disorder, or condition is being attenuated, e.g., by treatment or immune response.

[0131] The present disclosure also provides the insight that compositions and methods provided herein can be used to tailor treatments (e.g., therapies, nutraceuticals, and/or probiotics) to an individual patient. In some embodiments, compositions and methods provided herein can provide “personalized” therapy. In some cases, metabolite levels, features or parameters (e.g. level of cell viability, level or activity of a nucleic acid or protein, or form thereof, mitochondrial function, peroxisomal function, ATP levels, proteasomal function, lysosomal function, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal damage (e.g. with beta amyloids, tangles, etc.), nerve fiber damage, nerve ending damage, brain damage, etc.) within an individual can be assessed, characterized, or identified to determine if they have a disease, disorder, or condition. Based on the results, the individual can be treated with one or more compositions to adjust the metabolite levels (i.e., their metabolome), features or parameters. In some instances, this will affect the disease, disorder, or condition the individual is suffering from or at risk of developing. For example, if an individual is determined to have a relatively low amount of one or more metabolite levels that have been determined to decrease the severity of a disease, disorder, or condition, administration of the one or more compositions that have been determined to decrease the severity of a disease, disorder, or condition to the individual (or an extract, component, or compound thereof) may attenuate the severity of the individual’s disease or condition.

[0132] The present disclosure provides the insight that compositions and methods provided herein can be used recursively to treat, prevent, or ameliorate a disease, disorder, or condition.

Some non-limiting examples of food items to be used with the methods and compositions described herein include: popsicles, cheeses, creams, chocolates, milk, meat, drinks, pickled vegetables, kefir, miso, sauerkraut, etc. In other embodiments, food items can be juices, refreshing beverages, tea beverages, drink preparations, jelly beverages, and functional beverages; alcoholic beverages such as beers; carbohydrate-containing foods such as rice food products, noodles, breads, and pastas; paste products such as fish, hams, sausages, paste products of seafood; retort pouch products such as curries, food dressed with a thick starchy sauce, and Chinese soups; soups; dairy products such as milk, dairy beverages, ice creams, and yogurts; fermented products such as fermented soybean pastes, fermented beverages, and pickles; bean products; various confectionery products including biscuits, cookies, and the like, candies, chewing gums, gummies, cold desserts including jellies, cream caramels, and frozen desserts; instant foods such as instant soups and instant soy-bean soups; and the like. It is preferred that food preparations not require cooking after admixture with microbial strain(s) to avoid killing any microbes. In one embodiment a food used for administration is chilled, for example, iced flavored water. In certain embodiments, the food item is not a potentially allergenic food item (e.g., not soy, wheat, peanut, tree nuts, dairy, eggs, shellfish or fish). Pharmaceutically compatible binding agents, and/or adjuvant materials can be included as part of the composition.

[0169] Ocular formulations (e.g. for ophthalmic, intravitreal, or suprachoroidal administration) can include an inert diluent or a carrier. For purposes of ocular therapeutic administration, an active compound can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of suspensions, emulsions (e.g. water-in-oil or oil-in water), nanocarriers, (e.g. nanoparticles, nanosuspensions, liposomes, nanomicelles, dendrimers, etc.) ointments, gels, eye drops, etc. In some embodiments, administration of such formulations is topical (e.g. eye drops). In some embodiments, administration of such formulations is via injection (e.g. intravitreal, suprachoroidal, etc.).

[0170] Cerebral formulations (e.g. for intracerebral or intrathecal administration) can include an inert diluent or a carrier. For purposes of cerebral therapeutic administration, an active compound can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of suspensions, emulsions (e.g. water-in-oil or oil-in water), nanocarriers, (e.g. nanoparticles, nanosuspensions, liposomes, nanomicelles, dendrimers, etc.) ointments, gels, etc. In some embodiments, administration of such formulations is topical (e.g. ointments). In some embodiments, administration of such formulations is via injection (e.g. intracerebral, intrathecal, etc.).

[0171] In some such embodiments, a composition described herein is administered to a subject according to a dosing regimen that achieves population of the subject’s microbiome with administered cells. In some embodiments, a composition is administered to a subject in a single dose. In some embodiments, a composition is administered to a subject in a plurality of doses. In some embodiments, a dose of a composition is administered to a subject twice a day, daily, weekly, or monthly.

[0172] In some embodiments, each of the one or more microbial strains in a dose comprises 10.sup.1 to 10.sup.15 colony forming units (CFUs). In some embodiments, each of the one or more microbial strains in a dose comprises 10.sup.6 to 10.sup.15 CFUs. In some embodiments, each of the one or more microbial strains in a dose comprises the same number of CFUs. In some embodiments, some of the one or more microbial strains in a dose comprises a different number of CFUs.

[0173] In some embodiments, a dose of one or more microbial strains comprises a total of 10.sup.6 to 10.sup.15 CFUs.

In some embodiments, a dose of one or more microbial strains comprises 5-20 billion CFUs. In some embodiments, a dose of one or more microbial strains comprises 50-100 billion CFUs. In some embodiments, a dose of one or more microbial strains comprises 100-200 billion CFUs.

[0174] In some embodiments, efficacy can be assessed by measuring the degree of oxidative stress of cells in a biological sample prior to and following administration of a composition as described herein. The degree of oxidative stress of cells can be assessed by, for example, measuring the expression of oxidative stress biomarkers, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, or lipid, protein, and nucleic acid damage levels, or by determining the ratio of oxidized to reduced forms of one or more biomarkers. High levels of oxidative stress can be cytotoxic, so the degree of oxidative stress can be measured by assessing the concentration of intracellular proteins present in the systemic circulation from inflamed or lysed cells (e.g. nerve cells).

EXEMPLIFICATION

[0175] In-depth details of the purpose, mouse model used, studies performed, and the results of these Examples are listed in Appendix 5 filed herewith.

Example 1: In Vivo Evaluation of Effect of Metabolites on LPS-Induced Cytokine Production in Human Monocytes

[0176] This Example provides an in vivo evaluation of the effect of specific metabolites in cytokine production in human monocytes.

[0177] Study: THP-1 monocyte cell line was purchased from ATCC and cultured in RPMI-1640 media supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), and 0.05 mM 2-Mercaptoethanol. The cells were maintained at 37° C. in 5% CO.sub.2 incubators. All experiments were carried out using only passage 3-7 cells. For 6-well plates, cells were seeded at a density of 1×10.sup.5 cells/mL with a total volume of 3 mL (300,000 cells total). 10 micromole of each metabolite was added to 2 wells. For the control wells, Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) with solvent control were added. After 6 hours of incubation at 37° C. and 5% CO.sub.2, one of the two wells for each metabolite was treated with 1 .Math.g/mL of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in water. In the other well, water with no LPS was added. Control wells were also treated with either water containing LPS or no LPS. After 16 hours of LPS treatment, approximately 800 .Math.L of conditioned media was collected from each well using a 1 mL syringe and filtered using a 0.22-micron PES syringe filter. Cytokine levels were assessed in the conditioned media using the Mouse Cytokine/Chemokine 31-Plex Discovery Assay (Eve Technologies, Calgary, AB, Canada)

[0178] Results: FIGS. 2A-C show the cytokine levels for each of the various metabolites tested and controls for eight (8) different cytokines. The change in cytokine levels using metabolites in monocytes suggests that one or more of these metabolites may be used to modulate, reduce, or reverse inflammation (e.g. including neuroinflammation), which may in turn be used to treat and/or prevent diseases associated with the Vagus Nerve as described herein.
