Significant inverse association of equol-producer status with coronary artery calcification but not dietary isoflavones in healthy Japanese men.

Project description:Equol, a metabolite of the dietary isoflavone daidzein, is produced by the action of gut bacteria in some individuals who are termed as equol-producers. It is proposed to have stronger atheroprotective properties than dietary isoflavones. We examined a cross-sectional association of dietary isoflavones and equol-producer status with coronary artery calcification (CAC), a biomarker of coronary atherosclerosis, among men in Japan. A population-based sample of 272 Japanese men aged 40-49 years recruited from 2004 to 2007 was examined for serum isoflavones, serum equol, CAC and other factors. Equol-producers were classified as individuals having a serum level of equol >83 nm. The presence of CAC was defined as a coronary Ca score ≥10 Agatston units. The associations of dietary isoflavones and equol-producers with CAC were analysed using multiple logistic regression. The median of dietary isoflavones, equol and CAC were 512·7 (interquartile range (IQR) 194·1, 1170·0), 9·1 (IQR 0·10, 33·1) and 0·0 (IQR 0·0, 1·0) nm, respectively. Prevalence of CAC and equol-producers was 9·6 and 16·0 %, respectively. Dietary isoflavones were not significantly associated with CAC. After multivariable adjustment, the OR for the presence of CAC in equol-producers compared with equol non-producers was 0·10 (95 % CI 0·01, 0·90, P<0·04). Equol-producers had significantly lower CAC than equol non-producers, but there was no significant association between dietary isoflavones and CAC, suggesting that equol may be a key factor for atheroprotective properties of isoflavones in Japanese men. This finding must be confirmed in larger studies or clinical trials of equol that is now available as a dietary supplement.

Heterologous expression of equol biosynthesis genes from Adlercreutzia equolifaciens.

Project description:Equol is the isoflavone-derived metabolite with the greatest estrogenic and antioxidant activity. It is produced from daidzein by fastidious and oxygen-susceptible intestinal bacteria, which hinders their use at an industrial scale. Therefore, expressing the equol production machinery into easily-cultivable hosts would expedite the heterologous production of this compound. In this work, four genes (racemase, tdr, ddr and dzr) coding for key enzymes involved in equol production in Adlercreutzia equolifaciens DSM19450T were synthesized and cloned in a pUC-derived vector (pUC57-equol) that was introduced in Escherichia coli. Recombinant clones of E. coli produced equol in cultures supplemented with daidzein (equol precursor) and dihydrodaidzein (intermediate compound). To check whether equol genes were expressed in Gram-positive bacteria, the pUC57-equol construct was cloned into the low-copy-number vector pIL252, and the new construct (pIL252-pUC57-equol) introduced into model strains of Lacticaseibacillus casei and Lactococcus lactis. L. casei clones carrying pIL252-pUC57-equol produced a small amount of equol from dihydrodaidzein but not from daidzein, while L. lactis recombinant clones produced no equol from either of the substrates. This is the first time that A. equolifaciens equol genes have been cloned and expressed in heterologous hosts. E. coli clones harboring pUC57-equol could be used for biotechnological production of equol.

Transcriptional Regulation of the Equol Biosynthesis Gene Cluster in Adlercreutzia equolifaciens DSM19450T.

Project description:Given the emerging evidence of equol's benefit to human health, understanding its synthesis and regulation in equol-producing bacteria is of paramount importance. Adlercreutziaequolifaciens DSM19450T is a human intestinal bacterium -for which the whole genome sequence is publicly available- that produces equol from the daidzein isoflavone. In the present work, daidzein (between 50 to 200 μM) was completely metabolized by cultures of A.equolifaciens DSM19450T after 10 h of incubation. However, only about one third of the added isoflavone was transformed into dihydrodaidzein and then into equol. Transcriptional analysis of the ORFs and intergenic regions of the bacterium's equol gene cluster was therefore undertaken using RT-PCR and RT-qPCR techniques with the aim of identifying the genetic elements of equol biosynthesis and its regulation mechanisms. Compared to controls cultured without daidzein, the expression of all 13 contiguous genes in the equol cluster was enhanced in the presence of the isoflavone. Depending on the gene and the amount of daidzein in the medium, overexpression varied from 0.5- to about 4-log10 units. Four expression patterns of transcription were identified involving genes within the cluster. The genes dzr, ddr and tdr, which code for daidzein reductase, dihydrodaidzein reductase and tetrahydrodaidzein reductase respectively, and which have been shown involved in equol biosynthesis, were among the most strongly expressed genes in the cluster. These expression patterns correlated with the location of four putative ρ-independent terminator sequences in the cluster. All the intergenic regions were amplified by RT-PCR, indicating the operon to be transcribed as a single RNA molecule. These findings provide new knowledge on the metabolic transformation of daidzein into equol by A.equolifaciens DSM19450T, which might help in efforts to increase the endogenous formation of this compound and/or its biotechnological production.
