GABA potentiate the immunoregulatory effects of Lactobacillus brevis BGZLS10-17 via ATG5-dependent autophagy in vitro.

ABSTRACT: The characterization of mechanisms involved in the positive effects of probiotic bacteria in various pathophysiological conditions is a prerogative for their safe and efficient application in biomedicine. We have investigated the immunological effects of live bacteria-free supernatant collected from GABA-producing Lactobacillus brevis BGZLS10-17 on Concanavalin A-stimulated mesenteric lymph node cells (MLNC), an in vitro model of activated immune cells. We have shown that GABA containing and GABA-free supernatant of Lactobacillus brevis BGZLS10-17 have strong immunoregulatory effects on MLNC. Further, GABA produced by this strain exhibit additional inhibitory effects on proliferation, IFN-? and IL-17 production by MLNC, and the expression of MHCII and CD80 on antigen presenting cells. At the other hand, GABA-containing supernatants displayed the strongest stimulatory effects on the expression of immunoregulatory molecules, such as Foxp3+, IL-10, TGF-?, CTLA4 and SIRP-?. By looking for the mechanisms of actions, we found that supernatants produced by BGZLS10-17 induce autophagy in different MLNC, such as CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes, NK and NKT cells, as well as antigen presenting cells. Further, we showed that the stimulation of Foxp3+, IL-10 and TGF-? expression by BGZLS10-17 produced GABA is completely mediated by the induction of ATG5 dependent autophagy, and that other molecules in the supernatants display GABA-, ATG5-, Foxp3+-, IL-10- and TGF-?- independent, immunoregulatory effects.

Project description:Lactic acid bacteria often encounter a variety of multiple stresses in their natural and industrial fermentation environments. The glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) system is one of the most important acid resistance systems in lactic acid bacteria. In this study, we demonstrated that GlnR, a nitrogen regulator in Gram-positive bacteria, directly modulated γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) conversion from glutamate and was involved in glutamate-dependent acid resistance in Lactobacillus brevis The glnR deletion strain (ΔglnR mutant) achieved a titer of 284.7 g/liter GABA, which is 9.8-fold higher than that of the wild-type strain. The cell survival of the glnR deletion strain was significantly higher than that of the wild-type strain under the condition of acid challenge and was positively correlated with initial glutamate concentration and GABA production. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR assays demonstrated that GlnR inhibited the transcription of the glutamate decarboxylase-encoding gene (gadB), glutamate/GABA antiporter-encoding gene (gadC), glutamine synthetase-encoding gene (glnA), and specific transcriptional regulator-encoding gene (gadR) involved in gadCB operon regulation. Moreover, GABA production and glutamate-dependent acid resistance were absolutely abolished in the gadR glnR deletion strain. Electrophoretic mobility shift and DNase I footprinting assays revealed that GlnR directly bound to the 5'-untranslated regions of the gadR gene and gadCB operon, thus inhibiting their transcription. These results revealed a novel regulatory mechanism of GlnR on glutamate-dependent acid resistance in LactobacillusIMPORTANCE Free-living lactic acid bacteria often encounter acid stresses because of their organic acid-producing features. Several acid resistance mechanisms, such as the glutamate decarboxylase system, F1Fo-ATPase proton pump, and alkali production, are usually employed to relieve growth inhibition caused by acids. The glutamate decarboxylase system is vital for GAD-containing lactic acid bacteria to protect cells from DNA damage, enzyme inactivation, and product yield loss in acidic habitats. In this study, we found that a MerR-type regulator, GlnR, was involved in glutamate-dependent acid resistance by directly regulating the transcription of the gadR gene and gadCB operon, resulting in an inhibition of GABA conversion from glutamate in L. brevis This study represents a novel mechanism for GlnR's regulation of glutamate-dependent acid resistance and also provides a simple and novel strategy to engineer Lactobacillus strains to elevate their acid resistance as well as GABA conversion from glutamate.
