Descrição: The importance of the gut microbiota at the early stage of life and their longitudinal effect on host health have recently been well investigated. In particular, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum, a common component of infant gut microbiota, appears in the gut shortly after birth and can be detected there throughout an individual's lifespan. However, it remains unclear whether this species colonizes in the gut over the long term from early infancy. Here, we investigated the long-term colonization of B. longum subsp. longum by comparing the genotypes of isolates obtained at different time points from individual subjects. Strains were isolated over time from the feces of 12 subjects followed from early infancy (the first six months of life) up to childhood (approximately six years of age). We also considered whether the strains were transmitted from their mothers' perinatal samples (prenatal feces and postnatal breast milk). Intra-species diversity of B. longum subsp. longum was observed in some subjects' fecal samples collected in early infancy and childhood, as well as in the prenatal fecal samples of their mothers. Among the highlighted strains, several were confirmed to colonize and persist in single individuals from as early as 90 days of age for more than six years; these were classified as long-term colonizers. One of the long-term colonizers was also detected from the corresponding mother's postnatal breast milk. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction data suggested that these long-term colonizers persisted in the subjects' gut despite the existence of the other predominant species of Bifidobacterium. Our results showed that several strains belonging to B. longum subsp. longum colonized in the human gut from early infancy through more than six years, confirming the existence of long-term colonizers from this period. Moreover, the results suggested that these strains persisted in the subjects' gut while co-existing with the other predominant bifidobacterial species. Our findings also suggested the importance of microbial-strain colonization in early infancy relative to their succession and showed the possibility that probiotics targeting infants might have longitudinal effects.
