Popis: Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis includes the altered gut microbiota, environmental factors, human immune responses and genetic. Reduced bifidobacteria level is associated with IBD. Xyloglucan is a plant based prebiotic oligosaccharide. Bifidobacteria level is increased in the presence of xyloglucan. In this article we aim to share the results of our cases; Ulcerative colitis (UC) patients treated by intracolonic single administration of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis and Xyloglucan combination. Methods Ten UC patients were evaluated; before and after intracolonic single administration of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis and Xyloglucan combination with colonoscopic laboratory and clinical examination. Results Age, sex, diagnosis, disease location, previous medications are summarized in Table 1. All the patients had active ulcerative colitis disease before the administration. The Mayo Score was used to assess the severity of UC. 2 cases had extensive colitis and 8 patients had left-sided colitis. After 6 weeks of the administration mucosal healing and resolution of colonic symptoms were seen. These results are summarized in Table 2. Of the 10 cases, 7 were undertaken 5-ASA +Azathiopurine and three were undertaken vedolizumab treatment. Intracolonic single Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis and xyloglucan administration was found effective in the mucosal healing and resolution of colonic symptoms in ulcerative colitis patients. Conclusions Herein we reported the importance of Bifidobacterium and xylooligosaccharide combination in IBD. Colonoscopic single Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis and xyloglucan administration is a new method that has no side effect and easy to apply for treatment of IBD.This application might provide enhancement of non-stimulatory status and higher biodiversity in colonic mucosa so mucosal healing may be improved rapidly. However, it would be necessary to develop diagnostic strategies in order to discriminate which patients would benefit from this strategy.
