These findings were published in the latest issue of the journal Cell Host &amp; Microbe and show the importance of the cross talk between the oral microbiota and immune responses, especially in relation to vaccination.&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Occasionally, commensal bacteria found in the oral cavity of humans may appear to be very similar in structure to an infectious pathogen. This similarity means that antibodies produced against the commensal may also bind to the pathogen or vice versa \u2013 a process known as cross-reaction induced by molecular mimicry. Scientists from the DRFZ have discovered that exactly such a mechanism occurs between a commensal bacteria found in saliva,&nbsp;<em>Streptococcus salivarius<\/em>, and the Spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, resulting in a potential increase of protective immunity against the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The researchers found that following vaccination against SARS-CoV-2, there was a simultaneous increase of the abundance of the commensal bacteria&nbsp;<em>S.<\/em>&nbsp;<em>salivarius&nbsp;<\/em>in the saliva in the study participants. Moreover, antibodies produced in the immune response to the vaccine were able to bind to several commensal bacteria, including&nbsp;<em>S.<\/em>&nbsp;<em>salivarius,&nbsp;<\/em>due to the similarity in structure of the bacteria and the virus<em>.<\/em>&nbsp;The researchers also went on to define the bacterial protein which had similarities to the SARS-CoV-2 virus and injected it into mice, resulting in production of neutralizing antibodies against the virus. These commensal cross-reactive antibodies enhanced clearance of the virus in mice, showing that the oral microbiota can influence the immune responses to the virus. Dr Andrey Kruglov, one of the senior authors of the study, commented that: \u201cThis research helps to shed light on how the composition of the oral microbiota may potentially regulate susceptibility to infection or severity of disease.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an oral supplement of&nbsp;<em>S. salivarius&nbsp;<\/em>is commercially available as a probiotic (known as&nbsp;<em>BLIS<\/em>&nbsp;K12), the researchers also examined the effect of taking this probiotic on the levels of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in saliva. Within two weeks of taking the probiotic, the researchers reported an increase in SARS-CoV-2 antibodies measured in the saliva in the majority of participants \u2013 an effect not seen in the control group (not taking the probiotic) and also not in unvaccinated participants. Interestingly, as antibody levels of people taking the probiotic were not altered in blood, this suggests that this effect is due to a specific local alteration in the mucosal immune response by the bacteria in the saliva, rather than a systemic effect seen throughout the entire immune system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although this study did not address whether&nbsp;<em>S. salivarius<\/em>&nbsp;influenced SARS-CoV-2 disease outcome, there is some evidence from other clinical trials that using the K12 probiotic supplement of&nbsp;<em>S. salivarius&nbsp;<\/em>may be beneficial. Dr Kruglov is hopeful: \u201cThis is another example of the importance of the crosstalk between the microbiota and the immune system \u2013 something we are only beginning to understand.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n  <section id=\"block_5bcffaf8f9a512df81bb935e44ec3f02\"\n           class=\"section related-publications alignwide related-publications--slider \">\n    <div class=\"container container--center\">\n\n      \n      \n      <div class=\"related-publications__slider swiper swiper-pull-right\">\n        \n        <div class=\"swiper-wrapper grid\">\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              \n<article id=\"post-7865\"\n  class=\"teaser-publication box launimation slideBottom layout-box post-7865 publication type-publication status-publish hentry year-tax-396\">\n  <div class=\"teaser-publication__wrap\">\n          <div class=\"teaser-publication__authors ellipsis ellipsis--1\">Bondareva M, Budzinski L, Durek P, Witkowski M, Angermair S, Ninnemann J, Kreye J, Letz P, Ferreira-Gomes M, Semin I, Guerra GM, Momsen RS, S\u00e1nchez-Sendin E, Yilmaz S, Sempert T, Heinz GA, Tizian C, Raftery M, Sch\u00f6nrich G, Matyushkina D, Smirnov IV, Govorun VM, Schrezenmeier E, Stefanski AL, D\u00f6rner T, Zocche S, Viviano E, Klement N, Sehmsdorf KJ, Lunin A, Chang HD, Drutskaya MS, KozlovSkaya LI, Treskatsch S, Radbruch A, Diefenbach A, Pr\u00fcss H, Enghard P, Mashreghi MF, Kruglov AA.<\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"teaser-publication__title h6 ellipsis\">\n      <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/37944493\" target=\"_blank\" lang=\"en\">Cross-regulation of antibody responses against the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein and commensal microbiota via molecular mimicry.<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n          <div class=\"teaser-publication__source\">Cell Host Microbe. 2023 Nov 8;31(11):1866-1881.e10. doi: 10.1016\/j.chom.2023.10.007.
