Selected lactic acid bacteria synthesize antioxidant peptides during sourdough fermentation of cereal flours.

ABSTRACT: A pool of selected lactic acid bacteria was used for the sourdough fermentation of various cereal flours with the aim of synthesizing antioxidant peptides. The radical-scavenging activity of water/salt-soluble extracts (WSE) from sourdoughs was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than that of chemically acidified doughs. The highest activity was found for whole wheat, spelt, rye, and kamut sourdoughs. Almost the same results were found for the inhibition of linoleic acid autoxidation. WSE were subjected to reverse-phase fast protein liquid chromatography. Thirty-seven fractions were collected and assayed in vitro. The most active fractions were resistant to further hydrolysis by digestive enzymes. Twenty-five peptides of 8 to 57 amino acid residues were identified by nano-liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry. Almost all of the sequences shared compositional features which are typical of antioxidant peptides. All of the purified fractions showed ex vivo antioxidant activity on mouse fibroblasts artificially subjected to oxidative stress. This study demonstrates the capacity of sourdough lactic acid bacteria to release peptides with antioxidant activity through the proteolysis of native cereal proteins.

Project description:The microbial community plays an important role on the solid-state fermentation (SSF) of Chinese cereal vinegar, where acetic acid bacteria (AAB) and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are the dominant bacteria. In this study, the top-down (in situ) and bottom-up (in vitro) approaches were employed to reveal the interaction of AAB and LAB in SSF of Shanxi aged vinegar (SAV). The results of high-throughput sequencing indicates that Acetobacter pasteurianus and Lactobacillus helveticus are the predominant species of AAB and LAB, respectively, and they showed negative interrelationship during the fermentation. A. pasteurianus CGMCC 3089 and L. helveticus CGMCC 12062, both of which were isolated from fermentation of SAV, showed no nutritional competition when they were co-cultured in vitro. However, the growth and metabolism of L. helveticus CGMCC 12062 were inhibited during SSF due to the presence of A. pasteurianus CGMCC 3089, indicating an amensalism phenomenon between these two species. The transcriptomic results shows that there are 831 differentially expressed genes (|log2 (Fold Change)| > 1 and, p ≤ 0.05) in L. helveticus CGMCC 12062 under co-culture condition comparing to its mono-culture, which are mainly classified into Gene Ontology classification of molecular function, biological process, and cell composition. Of those 831 differentially expressed genes, 202 genes are up-regulated and 629 genes are down-regulated. The down-regulated genes were enriched in KEGG pathways of sugar, amino acid, purine, and pyrimidine metabolism. The transcriptomic results for A. pasteurianus CGMCC 3089 under co-culture condition reveals 529 differentially expressed genes with 393 up-regulated and 136 down-regulated, and the genes within KEGG pathways of sugar, amino acid, purine, and pyrimidine metabolism are up-regulated. Results indicate an amensalism relationship in co-culture of A. pasteurianus and L. helveticus. Therefore, this work gives a whole insight on the interaction between the predominant species in SSF of cereal vinegar from nutrient utilization, endogenous factors inhibition and the regulation of gene transcription.

Project description:The growing global consumption of avocados, associated with contents including bioactive compounds with numerous health-promoting properties, is producing a large amount of agro wastes around the world. Different management approaches are available for the recovery of bioactive compounds from wastes as potential ingredients for use in the production of functional foods and nutraceuticals. Lactic acid fermentation can be used to exploit nutritional potential and add value to agro wastes. In this study, fermentations with lactic acid bacteria were carried out in avocado leaves, and the total phenolic content and the antioxidant activity were determined by DPPH and FRAP assays from hydroalcoholic extracts obtained from fermented avocado leaves. Fifteen new phenolic compounds were identified for the first time in avocado leaves by HPLC-ESI-TOF-MS. L. plantarum CECT 748T and P. pentosaceus CECT 4695T showed the highest antioxidant activity. The sum of phenolic compounds was increased by 71, 62, 55 and 21% in fermentations with P. pentosaceus CECT 4695T, L. brevis CECT 5354, P. acidilactici CECT 5765T and L. plantarum CECT 9567, respectively, while it was reduced in the fermentation with L. plantarum 748T by 21% as demonstrated by HPLC-ESI-TOF-MS. Biotransformations induced by bacterial metabolism modified the phenolic compound profile of avocado leaves in a strain-specific-dependent manner. P. pentosaceus CECT 4695T significantly increased kaempferol, P. pentosaceus 4695T, L. brevis 5354 and L. plantarum 9567 increased rutin, and dihydro-p-coumaric acid was increased by the five selected lactic acid bacteria. Total flavonoids were highly increased after fermentations with the five selected lactic acid bacteria but flavonoid glucosides were decreased by L. plantarum 748T, which was related to its higher antioxidant activity. Our results suggest that lactic acid bacteria led the hydrolysis of compounds by enzymatic activity such as glycosidases or decarboxylase and the release of phenolics bound to the plant cell wall, thus improving their bioavailability.
