Field of the Invention The invention refers to a composition comprising a fermented product of Lactobacillus casei or paracasei species, preferably for use in the treatment of eye inflammation syndromes and to a method for obtaining the same.

The invention relates to the use of the supernatant of Lactobacillus Paracasei in the treatment of conjunctivitis, in particular of Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC).

Background of the Invention Conjunctivitis

Conjunctivitis is an inflammation or infection of the eye conjunctiva. It is characterized by conjunctival vessel dilatation, leading to hyperemia and edema of the conjunctiva, usually manifesting with associated discharge (Leibowitz HM, The red eye, N. Engl. J. Med., 2000;343(5):345-351 ).

Conjunctivitis can differ based on the aetiology. It can be related to viral or bacterial infections, or it can be allergic. Allergic conjunctivitis is by far the most common one throughout the population and it occurs between spring and summer. Viral conjunctivitis is the most common infectious conjunctivitis and occurs primarily in the summer, while bacterial conjunctivitis is most frequent in children and is observed from December through April.

Conjunctivitis can be primary or secondary to a systemic disease. In the first case, topical treatment is to be preferred, while in the second case systemic treatment should be sought. Treatment depends on the cause of the disease and is carried out with antibiotic-based eyedrops, prescribed for bacterial conjunctivitis; antihistamines, anti-inflammatroy or steroid eyedrops for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis and no cure is available for non-herpes viral conjunctivitis (JAMA, 2013;310(16):1721 -1729, doi:10.1001/jama.2013.280318).

Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC)

Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic, bilateral inflammation of the conjunctiva. VKC affects in particular young children (especially boys) from the age of 4 to 20. The incidence of the disease is 1 -10 cases in 10.000 individuals, but it has been rising in the last decades. The exact aetiology of the disease is unknown but VKC is present mostly in allergic individuals (with asthma, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, etc.) and includes eosinophils and mast cell hyperactivity. The pathophysiological feature is a dense mixed cellular infiltrate with sometimes an extremely thickened epithelium. It shows pronounced capillary proliferation, fibrosis and a thickened extracellular matrix.

The clinical picture is characterised by pronounced subjective symptoms and the emergence of giant papillae, mostly on the upper tarsal conjunctiva. Distinction can be made between a limbal form and a palpebral form. Corneal changes are the most threatening complications with development of corneal erosions and shield ulcers. It is a debilitating disease characterized by burning and itching as well as photophobia. Current therapeutic options are aimed to prevent long-term tissue damage caused by chronic inflammation and depend on the severity of the disease. Mild cases are treated with anti-histamines and mast cell stabilizers. Severe cases are treated with steroids either local or systemic and with cyclosporine under strict medical control. Due to the limited clinical benefit and the adverse side effects of these immunosuppressive drugs, especially in the eye where they may cause increased intraocular pressure, cataract formation and glaucoma, these drugs are far from ideal, and a considerable effort is needed to identify alternatives.

Therefore, there is a need for new drugs or compounds capable of either preventing or treating conjunctivitis without causing side effects.

Allergy, microbiota and dysbiosis

The microbiota is the community of commensal bacteria inhabiting our body (Yatsunenko et al., 2012). It is emerging that we are made of ten times more microbial than mammalian cells which contribute to a hundred times more genes. Hence, the microbiota provides a set of new functions that over the years our organism has learned to exploit (Qin et al., 2010). This enormously enhances the genetic variation among individuals that is provided by the human genome (Li et al., 2008; Mueller et al., 2006; Qin et al., 2010). One important function of the microbiota is the maturation of the immune system and protection against some infectious agents (Hooper et al., 2012; Khoruts et al., 2010; Reid et al., 201 1 ; Swiatczak et al., 201 1 ). It is becoming clear that especially in the early phases of life the microbiota 'educates' our immune system to deal with both innocuous and harmful bacteria and to establish a balance among the two that is characteristic of a healthy gut. Indeed, the microbiota is composed by symbiotic innocuous bacteria and potential pathogens also called pathobionts (Chow et al., 201 1 ).

Recently, it has been shown that several disorders, including allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis are associated with a disrupted microbiota, also called dysbiosis (Robles Alonso and Guarner, 2013). An altered microbial community may trigger allergic reactions characterized by an increase in Th2 type of responses, IgEs, eosinophilia or basophilia and mast cell activation (Cahenzli et al., 2013) (Hill et al., 2012). Also the eye mucosa is colonized by the microbiota and it is likely that dysbiosis may be responsible for some allergic manifestations or for susceptibility to viral or bacterial infections leading to conjunctivitis.

Probiotics

Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms that exert beneficial effects for the host when administered in adequate amounts. However, the administration of probiotics should not be arbitrary as each strain may produce specific metabolites in the fermented product with distinctive immunomodulatory properties (Klaenhammer et al., 2012). For instance, when the activity of several Lactobacilli on the immune system was compared, it was found that each strain has very specific characteristics (Mileti et al., 2009; Tsilingiri et al., 2012; Tsilingiri and Rescigno, 2013). It was thus found that Lactobacillus Plantarum NCIMB8826 has detrimental effects due to its immunostimulatory properties in mice and on healthy human intestinal tissue (Mileti et al., 2009; Tsilingiri et al., 2012), while Lactobacillus rhamnousus GG and L. Paracasei B21060 can be detrimental only on inflamed tissues like those of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (Tsilingiri et al., 2012).

By contrast, the inventors found that metabolic products of probiotics - that were called postbiotics (Tsilingiri and Rescigno, 2013) - are very safe also on inflamed tissues, presumably because postbiotics lack the microbe associated molecular patterns that may further activate inflamed tissues (Tsilingiri et al., 2012). The use of probiotics (L. acidophilus) in eyedrops has already been proposed by Bonini et al. and has shown some efficacy in controlling symptoms of VKC in 6 out of 7 patients (lovieno et al., 2008). In this clinical trial, patients were treated with probiotic eyedrops for 4 weeks, while signs and symptoms of VKC were being recorded. While symptoms were improved both after 2 and 4 weeks, the improvement of clinical signs was evident after 4 weeks. Prolonged use of probiotic-based eyedrops has not been tested, but it cannot be excluded that it might lead to a permanent change in the eye microbiota composition, or on the community of commensal bacteria inhabiting the human body (Yatsunenko et al., 2012), with unpredictable long-term effects on the eye immune homeostasis.

The supernatant of Lactobacillus paracasei

The putative therapeutic use of strains of Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I- 1390 (Budapest Treaty deposit), redeposited on July 26, 2017 according to Budapest Treaty with CNCM (Collection Nationale de Cultures de Microorganismes, Institut Pasteur, Paris FR) rno. I-5220 (hereinafter also named as B21060), in particular of the fermentation supernatant thereof as an anti-inflammatory in intestinal diseases, is described in WO 201 1/009848 A2.

Description of the Invention

The present invention relates to the use of a fermented product of Lactobacillus species (postbiotic) for the generation of an eyedrop formulation to protect the eye mucosa from infections and allergic reactions and subsequent conjunctivitis.

The advantage of the postbiotic is multiple. First, there is no introduction of live bacteria that are normally colonizing other mucosal sites in the eye. Second, there are no microbial associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) normally associated with the bacterial cell wall such as endotoxins (LPS) or lypoteichoic acid (LTA), that may be potentially harmful. Third, a postbiotic has anti-inflammatory, Th1/Tregulatory cell skewing and barrier-protective properties on epithelial cells, including corneal epithelial cells. Hence, the use according to the invention of a post-biotic eye-drop is safer and probably more effective than a probiotic eyedrop, with the advantage of not affecting the composition of the eye microbiota by introducing species that are not normally present in the eye.

The invention refers to the use of a fermented product that can re-establish the homeostasis of the eye mucosa and protect it from both types of reaction. The fermented product is obtained at a non-canonical temperature of fermentation. The fermented product can on one side skew the T cell response towards a Th1 type of response that can be protective against pathogens and can counteract the pro- allergic Th2 type of response initiated during allergy. On the other hand, the fermented product does not favour the induction of an acute inflammatory response. The fermented product of the invention has immunomodulation activity both on the cells of the Immune system and on epithelial cells and promotes the formation of the epithelial barrier thus protecting the mucosa from external agents and is therefore particularly suitable for the treatment of conjunctivitis, particularly of VKC.

The fermented product can be obtained through the fermentation of different substrates, such as for example sodium lactate.

The invention refers to a composition comprising a fermented product of Lactobacillus casei or paracasei species, said species being characterized by comprising in their DNA genome DNA sequences essentially identical to SEQ ID No 1 to 5 sequences, proper diluents and/or eccipients.

LC/MS analysis

Mass spectrometry profile of fermented product of Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220 was obtained by Surface-activated chemical ionization (SACI) technique (J Mass Spectrom. 2005 Dec;40(12):1550-7.). Fermented product from Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220 were treated as follow. Liophilized supernatant were diluted in PBS buffer and 5 μΙ were loaded on HPLC Ultimate 3000 (Dionex) equipped with Phenomenex Luna C18 (2.0 x 50 mm - particle size 3 μιτι) column coupled with HCT Ultra (Bruker) spectrophotometer.

Bacteria culture

Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220 was cultured in 3ml_ of MRS medium anaerobically overnight at 37° C. The following day the culture was restarted (usually at a 1 :10 dilution) and the bacteria were harvested and used for stimulation at the exponential growth phase, namely when OD was 0,6 as measured with an Eppendorf biophotometer. Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM 1-5220 supernatants were obtained growing bacteria to OD600 = 0,6 in MRS and suspending biomass in saline solution supplemented or not with sodium lactate (Flac). The resulting medium was then filtered. Fermented product was maintained in liquid form or lyophilized by adding Mannitol .

Salmonella serovar typhimurium, strain FB62 was grown in 3ml_ of Luria-Bertani broth and cultured aerobically (in agitation) and used for stimulation at the exponential growth phase, namely when OD was 0,6 as measured with an Eppendorf biophotometer

Monocvte-derived dendritic cell (MoDC) differentiation and stimulation conditions

DCs were derived from human peripheral blood monocytes selected with anti-CD14 antibodies coupled to magnetic beads (Miltenyi, Bologna, Italy). CD14+ cells were incubated for 6 days in complete medium containing granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF, 5 ng/mL; BD Biosciences) and interleukin-4 (2,5 ng/mL; BD Biosciences) in order to obtain immature MoDCs. MoDCs were incubated with Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Escherichia coli O1 1 1 :B4 (Sigma- Aldrich) or Salmonella FB62 (MOI 1 :1 bacteria:DC) in the presence or absence of fermented product of Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220 for 24 h. Supernatants were tested for cytokine abundance by ELISA (R&D systems) and by cytometric bead assay Flex sets (BD Biosciences).

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells and stimulation conditions

Buffy coats were obtained from healthy donors having signed an informed consent for research use. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were separated with Ficoll (GE Healthcare) gradient centrifugation and then resuspended and cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Lonza) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco), 1 % Glutamine 1 % pyruvate, 1 % non essential AA and 1 % Penicillin-Streptomycin. PBMCs were incubated with Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Escherichia coli O1 1 1 :B4 (Sigma- Aldrich) in the presence or absence of fermented product of Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220 for 24 h. Supernatants were tested for cytokine abundance by ELISA (R&D systems) and by cytometric bead assay Flex sets (BD Biosciences).

Human primary corneal epithelial cells and stimulation conditions

Human primary corneal epithelial cells (HCEC, # C0185C Thermo Fisher Scientific) were plated in 96 well plate at 10000 cells/well in the presence or absence of Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220 fermented product. After 24 hours cells were stimulated with 100 ng/ml of LPS from Escherichia coli O1 1 1 :B4 (Sigma- Aldrich) or 1 :1000 dilution of Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I for additional 24 hours. Cytokine production (IL-1 β, IL-8, TNF-a ed IL-6) was measured by ELISA CBA in cell culture supernatant.

Caco2 cells culture and stimulation conditions

Caco2 cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1 % Glutamine, 1 % nonessential aminoacids, 1 % Penicillin-Streptomycin. Cells were seed in Permanox Plastic Nunc™ Lab-Tek™ Chamber Slide System (ThermoFisher) and stimulated with 100 ng/ml of LPS from Escherichia coli O1 1 1 :B4 (Sigma- Aldrich) in the presence or absence of fermented product of Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM I-5220. ZO-1 expression was evaluated by immunofluorescencence staining with the following monoclonal antibody: anti ZO-1 clone ZO1 -1 A12, Invitrogen, at a concentration of 5μg ml for 1 hour at room temperature. Slices were then incubated with the appropriate fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibody.

Before imaging, nuclei were counterstained with 4',6-diamidin-2-fenilindolo (DAPI). LPS-induced endotoxic shock

C57/BL6 mice were purchased from Charles River laboratories. All mice were maintained in microisolator cages in a specific pathogen-free animal facility. All experiments were performed in accordance with the guidelines established in the Principles of Laboratory Animal Care (directive 86/609/EEC) and approved by the Italian Ministry of Health. Mice were treated orally with Flac (fernnented sodium lactate by Lactobacillus paracasei strain CNCM 1-5220) at 96,72, 24 and 2 hours, before LPS administration (n=5 per group). Control mice received Mannitol-sodium lactate. LPS from Escherichia coli 01 1 1 :B4 (Sigma- Aldrich) was injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) at 200 g per mouse in 200 μΙ of injectable water. After 5 hours mice were euthanized by exsanguination under anesthesia and blood was collected. IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-12p40, IL- 6, TNF-a and IL-12p70 levels were detected in the serum by CBA BD Array (BD bioscience), according to manufacturer's instructions.

Statistical analysis

Student's paired t test (Mann-Whitney U Test) or ANOVA, was used to determine the statistical significance of the data. Significance was defined as *, P< 0.05; **, P< 0.01 , ***, P<0.001 . Statistic calculations were performed with GraphPad Prism software. Preparation of the L. paracasei B21060 (CNCM 1-1390, redeposited as CNCM I- 5220) supernatant

An inoculum of L. paracasei B21060 is grown at a temperature of about 37 ° C and is then gently stirred to avoid oxygenation of the culture medium, as MRS medium. The biomass is then allowed to grow for about 12 to 36 hours, preferably for about 24 hours, until the desired concentration of lactobacilli is reached (the preferred concentration corresponds to a microorganism growth equivalent to an absorbance of 0.6 at a wavelength of Οϋβοο). Then, the culture is centrifuged to separate the bacteria from the culture first fermented product, the former being further processed as below for the preparation of the composition for eye drops of the invention. The first fermented product may be used to get the composition of the invention.

Preparation of eye drops Formulation A

Centrifuged bacteria are transferred to a minimum solution (saline, phosphate buffer, H2O, etc.) with or without sodium lactate (appr. 5 g/l/) and allowed to ferment for 12 to 36 hours, preferably for about 24 hours without agitation. Then bacteria are centrifuged to separate them from the, second fermented product and the latter is used in the preparation of the composition of the invention. For example the composition is used for eye drop formulation A, and consists of the second fermented product, diluted to 2-40 % vol, preferably 10-25% vol, more preferably 25% vol, in a saline solution or other diluent suitable for the purpose, and properly filtered. The % dilution depends also from the bacteria concentrations obtained according to the above paragraph. Figure 1 shows a mass spectrometric profile obtained by surface-activated chemical ionization (SACI) technique. [Cristoni S, Rubini S, Bernardi LR. Mass Spectrom Rev. 2007 Sep-Oct; 26 (5): 645-56.]

Stimulation of monocyte derived dendritic cells in the presence or absence of L. paracasei B21060 (CNCM I-5220) fermented product.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen presenting cells involved in the induction of an immune response. According to the type of cytokines that they produce, DCs can skew the T cell response towards different polarizations, including interferon-(IFN)-y producing T helper (Th)1 T cells, interleukin (IL)-4 producing Th2 T cells, IL-10 producing T regulatory cells, or IL-17 producing Th17 T cells. Each one of these cell types is responsible for distinct immune responses. In particular, Th2 T cells are involved in controlling the growth of parasites, Th1 in bacterial and viral infections, while T regulatory cells protect from inflammation and tissue damage. In humans, the most studied DCs are the ones that are generated from monocytes: monocyte derived (Mo)DCs. The activation of MoDCs with bacterial derived lipopolysaccharide drives DCs to produce both inflammatory (IL-12) and antiinflammatory cytokines. Here it is shown that coincubation of MoDCs with a fermentation product of L. paracasei obtained under a non-canonical temperature amplifies the production of cytokines by MoDCs, including IL-12p70 and IL-10 (Figure 2). It also promotes the increase of IL-1 β, IL-6 and TNF-a, but not MCP-1 (Figure 3). Similar results have been obtained also using as substrate sodium lactate (Fermeted Lactate, Flac) in response to LPS (Fig .4). When Salmonella Thyphimurium was used as stimulus, a slight increase in IL-12p70 was observed and no change in IL-10 production (Fig.5). These results indicate that the L. paracasei fermented product has a strong immune modulatory activity on MoDCs which however is not skewed to either inflammatory or anti-inflammatory response.

Stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the presence or absence of L. paracasei B21060 (CNCM I-5220) fermented product. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) are a heterogenous cell population that includes myeloid as well as lymphoid immune cells. The amplification of the immune response observed on MoDCs suggests that L. paracasei fermented product may foster the activation of an immune response. Infact, when tested on PBMCs, the L. paracasei fermented product led to increase of IL12p40 cytokines without affecting the already high levels of IL-10 (Figure 6). Similar results have been obtained also using as substrate sodium lactate in response to LPS (Fig.7). Together, these data suggest that the fermented product may activate DCs on one side for a proper activation of an immune response, and mantaining elevated level of IL-10 which protects the host from immunopathology.

In vivo administration of L. paracasei B21060 (CNCM I-5220) fermented product modulates LPS induced cytokine production.

LPS administration in vivo in mice induces what is called a cytokine storm that can lead to endotoxin shock. When mice were administered first with L. paracasei B21060 fermented product (Flac) and then with LPS we observed an increase in IL- 12p40 and IL-10 and, as expected, no change in cytokine IL-6, TNF-a and IFN-γ (Figure 8). This suggests that L. paracasei fermented product does not influence the induction of protective Th1 responses and by increasing IL-10 production it thoese not induce overt inflammation.

Stimulation of corneal epithelial cells in the presence or absence of L. paracasei B21060 (CNCM I-5220) fermented product.

Corneal epithelial cells protect the inner chamber of the eye from the infection by microorganisms. These cells produce a series of inflammatory cytokines that can mediate the inflammation. L. paracasei B21060 fermented product can inhibit the inflammatory response in corneal epithelial cells in response to LPS. Epithelial cells were stimulated with LPS in the presence or absence of L. paracasei B21060 fermented product and cytokine production was tested. As shown in Figure 9, L. paracasei B21060 fermented product could drastically reduce the production of IL-8, I L-1 β, TNF-α, IL-6. This indicates the L. paracasei B21060 fermented product interferes with the production of inflammatory cytokines and counteracts inflammation. Analysis of tight junction proteins after stimulation of epithelial cells in the presence or absence of L. paracasei B21060 (CNCM I-5220) fermented product.

Figure 10 shows in the top line the epithelial cell images of three different experiments and treated only with a control solution, while the corresponding inferior line images show the same cells, this time treated with the supernatant of the invention. From the examination of these images we observe that tight junctions are modulated positively (upregulated) as a result of the supernatant of the invention, notably showing greater barrier properties.

Mucosal sites contain highly specialized epithelial cells, that are sealed by the presence of junctional complexes, including tight junction (TJ) and adherens junction (AJ). These form a tight physical barrier that maintains tissue homeostasis and protects from external insults. Alterations of junctional complexes are at the basis of several pathological processes. L. paracasei B21060 fermented product favors TJ formation. Epithelial cells (Caco2) were grown to form TJ in the presence or absence of L. paracasei B21060 fermented product and ZO-1 expression was analyzed. As shown in Figure 10 L. paracasei B21060 fermented product favors TJ formation by increasing ZO-1 expression. This suggests that L. paracasei B21060 fermented product can potentiate the formation of epithelial barrier protecting the tissue from external insults.
