Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for controlling pathogens in mammalian subjects. More particularly, the current invention pertains to a composition and method for reduction of pathogenic bacteria by oral administration of a non- antibiotic isotonic drink.
  • Pigs coexist with a diverse and dense commensal microbiota in their gastrointestinal tract. Most of these microbes are beneficial, providing necessary nutrients or protection against harmful pathogens for the host.
  • the microbial colonization of the porcine intestine begins at birth and follows a rapid succession during the neonatal and weaning period.
  • the intestinal immune system of the newborn piglet is poorly developed at birth and undergoes a rapid period of expansion and specialization that is not achieved before early (commercial-) weaning.
  • the animal agriculture sector is a major user of antibiotic drugs for disease treatment, disease control, disease prevention, and“production purposes” (such as growth promotion).

Description

COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING MAMMALIAN PATHOGENS
Field of the invention
The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for controlling pathogens in mammalian subjects. More particularly, the current invention pertains to a composition and method for reduction of pathogenic bacteria by oral administration of a non- antibiotic isotonic drink.
Background of the invention
Early-life and weaning are associated with major shifts in the microbial community of the gut in both humans and other mammals. Of particular interest is the study of the gut microbiome, its evolution beginning in utero and across the lifespan, its effect on promotion of health, and its role in the development of disease; see Gritz, E. C., & Bhandari, V. (2015). The human neonatal gut microbiome: a brief review. Frontiers in pediatrics, 3, 17.
A large number of microbes are known to colonize the infant’s gut in the first days of life. The initial microbiota establishment represents a crucial stage for gut maturation and metabolic and immunologic programming and has important consequences for short- and long-term health, see Jost, T., Lacroix, C., Braegger, C., & Chassard, C. (2015). Impact of human milk bacteria and oligosaccharides on neonatal gut microbiota establishment and gut health. Nutrition reviews, 73(7), 426-437.
Pigs coexist with a diverse and dense commensal microbiota in their gastrointestinal tract. Most of these microbes are beneficial, providing necessary nutrients or protection against harmful pathogens for the host. The microbial colonization of the porcine intestine begins at birth and follows a rapid succession during the neonatal and weaning period. The intestinal immune system of the newborn piglet is poorly developed at birth and undergoes a rapid period of expansion and specialization that is not achieved before early (commercial-) weaning.
Early weaning of piglets is often accompanied by a severe growth check and diarrhea. This process is multi-factorial and it is clear that post- weaning anorexia and undernutrition are major etiological factors. Gastrointestinal disturbances include alterations in small intestine architecture and enzyme activities. See Lalles, Jean-Paul, et al. "Nutritional management of gut health in pigs around weaning." Proceedings of the Nutrition Society 66.2 (2007): 260-268. Furthermore, the pig shares many common features of gastrointestinal physiology, microbiology, genetics and diet with humans. Pigs are particularly useful when assessing host microbe interactions because the gut microbiota is substantially more stable over time in both pigs and humans compared with rodent models.
Use of antibiotics for reducing or eradicating gut bacterial pathogens in human or in livestock such as pigs, exerts unwanted side effects, as well as antibiotic resistance on both the treated mammal, and the human consumers.
The animal agriculture sector is a major user of antibiotic drugs for disease treatment, disease control, disease prevention, and“production purposes” (such as growth promotion).
Routine use of antibiotics— in humans or animals— can encourage antimicrobial resistance, which can lead to significant human and animal health risks. Furthermore, in 2013, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued final guidance on voluntarily phasing out the use of medically important antibiotics (those important for therapeutic use in humans) for livestock production purposes; see Sneeringer, S., MacDonald, J. M., Key, N., McBride, W. D., & Mathews, K. (2017). Economics of antibiotic use in US livestock production.
There is therefore an unmet need to overcome and control microbial diseases, caused by pathogens, without the use of antibiotics.

EXAMPLE 1
Two basic morphometric histopathology studies were done to investigate the effects of Tonisity Px when administered to piglets from days 2 to 8 of age and when given for 3 days before and after weaning. These studies showed a significant increase in villi height in the Px group. The effect related to whether or not Px had been given from days 2 to 8. Introduction The rapid development of the intestinal environment in the neonatal pig sets the stage for production performance as well as nutrient absorption in the intestine. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of an isotonic protein drink on intestinal morphology and microbial population in the first 30 days of the pig’s life.
Materials and Methods Fifteen (15) gilts (Yorkshire x Landrace x Duroc) and their litters (161 piglets) were enrolled in the study which was performed in a dedicated high-health research facility. Litters were allocated to one of two study groups, control (Group A) or supplementation with an isotonic protein solution (Group B). Group A litters received no supplementation during the suckling or pre-weaning phase, and were given creep feed from weaning up until two days after weaning in addition to having feeder access. From days 2-8 of age, group B litters were given 500 mL of a 3% isotonic protein solution once daily in an open pan. Group B litters also received the 3% solution three and two days before weaning followed by a gruel mixture from one day before weaning up until two days after weaning. Weaning was at 21 days.
Table 2: Treatment Groups
Figure imgf000016_0001
A total of 56 piglets were randomly selected from each litter for euthanasia at 9 and 17 days of age and a further 20 piglets were randomly selected from each treatment group at 30 days of age. (Samples of small intestine and ingesta from each piglet were evaluated for differences in intestinal histomorphometry, thickness of intestinal mucus layer, semi-quantitative aerobic bacterial culture, and rotaviruses PCR at the University of Minnesota Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory.) Samples taken from the ileal mucosa of each piglet were also submitted for semiquantitative aerobic bacterial culture (E. coli). Table 3. Test Products

Feeding and Treatment Administration Plan All sows were fed while in the farrowing room according to farm management practices and were fed a standard farm lactation diet. Sows had ad lib access to fresh water through the watering system. Piglets did not have access to creep feed before weaning except as indicated in the feeding schedule. Piglets had access to an automatic drinker while in the farrowing pen.
Test product was given to the litters as follows:
a. Day 2-8, pans of Px was placed in each farrowing pen and filled once daily with 500 mL of solution per day.
b. Three (3) days before weaning, Px litters were given 500 mL of 3% Px solution in an open pan, in the farrowing pen.
c. Two (2) days before weaning, Px litters were given 500 mL of 3% Px solution in an open pan, in the farrowing pen.
d. One day before weaning, Px litters were given 2 lb/litter (~ 65 g/pig) of Px-gruel (made with a 3% solution) in an open pan, in the farrowing pen.
e. On weaning day, all pigs were weighed individually and allotted to pens based on body weight and treatment group. Once in the weaning pens, Px pigs received 15 lb* per 30 pigs of Px-gruel (made with the concentration of Px solution and the creep feed as specified in Table 3) in a separate feeder. The 15 lbs of gruel was split into 2 portions, a.m. (¼ lb per pig) and p.m. (¼ lb per pig). Dry feed and fresh water were made available. Control pigs received no gruel.
f. The Px-gruel administration was continued for the next 3 days after weaning

Results Days 9 and 17 microbiology and viral PCR showed that Group B pigs had significantly fewer numbers of subjects with E. coli (P = 0.01). Group A control pigs had 14/26 (54%) subjects positive for E. coli, with 4 pigs having positive results for beta-hemolytic E. coli. Group B pigs had 7/30 (23%) subjects positive for E. coli, with 1 pig having positive results for beta-hemolytic E. coli. There was an even distribution of E. coli cases between day 9 (12 cases total, 8 in Group A and 4 in Group B) and day 17 (9 cases total, 6 in Group A and 3 in Group B). Overall (preweaning and postweaning combined) pigs from Group B tended to have fewer pigs positive for E. coli (10/40, 25%) compared to Control pigs (15/36, 42%) (P = 0.06), representing a 40% reduction from birth until day 30 of age. See Figure 1, where the percentage of positive results for E. coli cultures is graphically represented for Group A (control group) and Group B (Px-administered pigs) on days 9 and 17 of the pigs’ life, as well as the preweaning average.
Conclusion Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) is an important pathogen in neonatal and post weaning pigs as it can negatively impact production performance. The administration of an isotonic protein drink in the first week of life was associated with significant reductions in intestinal E. coli load in this study.
EXAMPLE 2
Experiment was conducted as described in example 1. In example 2, fecal samples were collected from each pig for pathogen detection and analysis. The analysis included 16S rRNA gene sequencing. 16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed using the MiSeq (Illumina) platform after PCR amplification of the 16S v4 region. Data was normalized to the lowest number of reads per pig (3157), as the rarefaction curves revealed a plateau after this point.
PCR and genetic sequencing were preformed to detect the presence of members of the Prevotellaceae family. Some Prevotella have been previously associated with intestinal disturbances due to weaning stress in pigs and are known intestinal mucus degraders, See Gresse R, Chaucheyras- Durand F, Fleury MA et al. Gut microbiota dysbiosis in postweaning piglets: understanding the keys to health. Trends Microbiol Elsevier Current Trends, 2017;25:851-873, and Arumugam M, Raes J, Pelletier E et al. Enterotypes of the human gut microbiome. Nature Nature Publishing Group, 2011;473: 174-180.
The results indicate that the presence of Prevotellaceae was significantly lower in Group B (Px- administered pigs) compared to Group A (control) at days 9 and 17 (20.5% and 27.6% vs 29.0% and 37.0%, respectively; P < 0.01). These differences represent a 29% reduction at day 9 and a 25% reduction at day 17. No differences were observed at day 30 of life. See Figure 2, where the percentage of positive results for Prevotellaceae cultures is graphically represented for Group A (control group) and Group B (Px-administered pigs) on days 9, 17 and 30 of the pigs’ life. EXAMPLE 3
Experiment was conducted as described in example 2. PCR and genetic sequencing were preformed to detect the presence of the Spirochaetaceae family which includes the known porcine pathogen Brachyspira hyodysenteriae. This bacterium induces mucohemorrhagic diarrhea in pigs, with mortality and morbidity approaching 30% and 90%, respectively, see Schweer W.P, Gabler N.K, et al. Impact of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae on intestinal amino acid digestibility and endogenous amino acid losses in pigs.Journal of Animal Science, October, 2018;97: 1-12.
The results of the experiment show that Group B (Px-administered pigs) had lower amounts of Spirochaetaceae compared to Group A (control group) at day 9 (0.04% vs 0.15%; P < 0.05).
EXAMPLE 4
Experiment was conducted as described in example 2. PCR and genetic sequencing were preformed to detect the presence of Helicobacter pylori. Previous publications have linked the presence of this bacterium to several types of cancers, including gastric cancer, low-grade mucosa- associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, see Mentis A., Papavassiliou A. G., et al. Helicobacter pylori infection and gastric cancer biology: tempering a double-edged sword. Cellular and molecular life science, July 20l9;76 (13): 2477-2486 and Wei M.Y, Yu X. G., et al. The microbiota and microbiome in pancreatic cancer: more influential than expected. Molecular Cancer, 2019;18: 1-15.
The results obtained from this experiment demonstrate that the odds of detecting Helicobacter in Group A (control group) at day 9 were 4.3 times higher than in Group B (Px-administered pigs) (P=0.08).
