Marine microalgae bioengineered Schizochytrium sp. meal hydrolysates inhibits acute inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Bioengineered marine microalgae Schizochytrium sp. is currently used to produce docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). However, following DHA extraction, the remaining protein-rich materials are not well utilized. In this study, we report that marine microalgae bioengineered Schizochytrium sp. hydrolysate (MESH), which exhibits a unique peptide profile as identified by Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled with Q-TOF mass spectrometry(UPLC/Q-TOF-MS), ameliorated bowel inflammation in mice. In a mouse model of experimentalcolitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium, compared with the control mice, the mice treated with MESH were highly resistant to colitis, as demonstrated by marked reductions in body weight loss, clinical colitis scores, colonic histological damage, and colonic inflammation. Mechanistically, MESH attenuated the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines and increased the induction of anti-inflammatory cytokines. MESH also promoted the proliferation of colonic crypt stem cells and progenitor cells required for crypt repair. Collectively, these results reveal a previously unrecognized role of MESH as a potential anti-inflammatory treatment for colitis.

Project description:Staphylococcus epidermidis, the common inhabitant of human skin and mucosal surfaces has emerged as an important pathogen in patients receiving surgical implants and medical devices. Entering the body via surgical sites and colonizing the medical devices through formation of multi-layered biofilms it leads to refractory and persistent device-related infections (DRIs). Staphylococcal proportions within biofilms are more tolerant to antibiotics and immune responses, and thus are hard-to-treat. The consequent morbidity and mortality, and economic losses in health care systems has strongly necessitated the need for development of new anti-bacterial and anti-biofilm based therapeutics. In this study, we describe the biological activity of a marine sponge-derived Streptomyces sp. SBT348 extract in restraining staphylococcal growth and biofilm formation on polystyrene, glass, medically relevant titan metal and silicone surfaces. A bio-assay guided fractionation was performed to isolate the active compound (C3) from the crude SBT348 extract. Our results demonstrated that C3 effectively inhibits the growth (MIC: 31.25 µg/ml) and biofilm formation (sub-MIC range: 1.95-<31.25 µg/ml) of S. epidermidis RP62A in vitro. Chemical characterization of C3 by heat and enzyme treatments, and High-Resolution Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) revealed its heat-stable and non-proteinaceous nature, and high molecular weight (1258. 3257 Da). Cytotoxicity profiling of C3 in vitro on mouse fibroblast (NIH/3T3) and macrophage (J774.1) cell lines, and in vivo on the greater wax moth larvae Galleria melonella revealed its non-toxic nature at the effective dose. Transcriptome analysis of C3 treated-S. epidermidis RP62A has further unmasked the negative effect of C3 on central metabolism (carbon, amino acid and protein, lipids, nucleotide and energy) suggesting its mode of action. Taken together, these findings suggest that C3 could be possibly used as antibacterial and antibiofilm coatings on medically-relevant surfaces and prevent the relapsing staphylococcal DRIs.
