Rhizospheric Lactobacillus plantarum (Lactiplantibacillus plantarum) strains exhibit bile salt hydrolysis, hypocholestrolemic and probiotic capabilities in vitro.

ABSTRACT: Lactobacillus plantarum (renamed as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum) has been isolated from many sources but very rarely from rhizospheric soil. This is the first report on isolation and assessment of probiotic capabilities of L. plantarum strains isolated from rhizospheric soil. The isolates were confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and named as NS14, NS16 and NGG. All the isolates were evaluated for bile salt hydrolysis, hypocholestrolemic potential and probiotic attributes. Our results indicated that all the strains harboured bsh and showed in vitro cholesterol assimilation capabilities which increased when bile salts were also present in the culture medium. Also, all the strains remained viable at high temperatures and in the presence of NaCl, lysozyme, simulated gastric juice, bile salts and, exhibited auto- and co-aggregation capabilities. Additionally, L. plantarum strain NS14 survived in the presence of phenols, acidic environment (pH 2-3) and was resistant to many clinically relevant antibiotics. Since, L. plantarum NS14 exhibited most of the desirable and essential characteristics of a probiotic it should be further investigated as a potent probiotic with an additional benefit as a hypocholesterolemic biotherapeutic. Moreover, rhizosphere can be explored as a useful ecological niche for isolating microorganisms with biotechnological and probiotic potential.

Identification of Bile Salt Hydrolase and Bile Salt Resistance in a Probiotic Bacterium Lactobacillus gasseri JCM1131T.

Project description:Lactobacillus gasseri is one of the most likely probiotic candidates among many Lactobacillus species. Although bile salt resistance has been defined as an important criterion for selection of probiotic candidates since it allows probiotic bacteria to survive in the gut, both its capability and its related enzyme, bile salt hydrolase (BSH), in L. gasseri is still largely unknown. Here, we report that the well-known probiotic bacterium L. gasseri JCM1131T possesses BSH activity and bile salt resistance capability. Indeed, this strain apparently showed BSH activity on the plate assay and highly tolerated the primary bile salts and even taurine-conjugated secondary bile salt. We further isolated a putative BSH enzyme (LagBSH) from strain JCM1131T and characterized the enzymatic function. The purified LagBSH protein exhibited quite high deconjugation activity for taurocholic acid and taurochenodeoxycholic acid. The lagBSH gene was constitutively expressed in strain JCM1131T, suggesting that LagBSH likely contributes to bile salt resistance of the strain and may be associated with survival capability of strain JCM1131T within the human intestine by bile detoxification. Thus, this study first demonstrated the bile salt resistance and its responsible enzyme (BSH) activity in strain JCM1131T, which further supports the importance of the typical lactic acid bacterium as probiotics.

Bile salt hydrolase of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum plays important roles in amelioration of DSS-induced colitis.

Project description:Bile salt hydrolases are thought to be the gatekeepers of bile acid metabolism. To study the role of BSH in colitis, we investigated the ameliorative effects of different BSH-knockout strains of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum AR113. The results showed that L. plantarum Δbsh 1 and Δbsh 3 treatments did not improve body weight and alleviate the hyperactivated myeloperoxidase activity to the DSS group. However, the findings for L. plantarum AR113, L. plantarum Δbsh 2 and Δbsh 4 treatments were completely opposite. The double and triple bsh knockout strains further confirmed that BSH 1 and BSH 3 are critical for the ameliorative effects of L. plantarum AR113. In addition, L. plantarum Δbsh 1 and Δbsh 3 did not significantly inhibit the increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines or the decrease in an anti-inflammatory cytokine. These results suggest that BSH 1 and BSH 3 in L. plantarum play important roles in alleviating enteritis symptoms.

Lactobacillus plantarum Strains Isolated from Polish Regional Cheeses Exhibit Anti-Staphylococcal Activity and Selected Probiotic Properties.

Project description:Twenty-nine Lactobacillus plantarum strains isolated from different types of Polish regional cheeses (Oscypek and Korycinski) were assessed for selected probiotic properties and anti-staphylococcal activity. Most of the tested L. plantarum strains were considered safe. Whole bacterial cultures (WBC) and cell-free supernatants (CFSs) of L. plantarum strains inhibited growth of Staphylococcus aureus (average inhibition growth zones were 2.8 mm ± 1.2 and 2.8 mm ± 1.1 respectively). Moreover, almost all neutralized, catalase-treated cell-free supernatants (CFN) of L. plantarum cultures also exhibited slight anti-staphylococcal activity in vitro. The most promising strains Os4 and Kor14 were selected for further study. Both strains were able to survive during digestive gastro-intestinal passage model. Live cells of L. plantarum Os4 and Kor14 caused the strongest inhibition of S. aureus adhesion to Caco-2 cells comparing with CFN and heat-killed bacterial cells. S. aureus and L. plantarum (Os4 or Kor14) co-cultured in skim milk resulted in growth inhibition of S. aureus in both 8 °C and 37 °C incubation temperatures. Observed abilities, demonstrated for L. plantarum Os4 and Kor14, confirms that these strains could be used in the food industry as protective cultures.

Functional analysis of four bile salt hydrolase and penicillin acylase family members in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1.

Project description:Bile salts play an important role in the digestion of lipids in vertebrates and are synthesized and conjugated to either glycine or taurine in the liver. Following secretion of bile salts into the small intestine, intestinal microbes are capable of deconjugating the glycine or taurine from the bile salts, using an enzyme called bile salt hydrolase (Bsh). Intestinal lactobacilli are regarded as major contributors to bile salt hydrolysis in vivo. Since the bile salt-hydrolyzing strain Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 was predicted to carry four bsh genes (bsh1, bsh2, bsh3, and bsh4), the functionality of these bsh genes was explored using Lactococcus lactis heterologous overexpression and multiple bsh deletion strains. Thus, Bsh1 was shown to be responsible for the majority of Bsh activity in L. plantarum WCFS1. In addition, bsh1 of L. plantarum WCFS1 was shown to be involved in conferring tolerance to specific bile salts (i.e., glycocholic acid). Northern blot analysis established that bsh1, bsh2, bsh3, and bsh4 are all expressed in L. plantarum WCFS1 during the exponential growth phase. Following biodiversity analysis, bsh1 appeared to be the only bsh homologue that was variable among L. plantarum strains; furthermore, the presence of bsh1 correlated with the presence of Bsh activity, suggesting that Bsh1 is commonly responsible for Bsh activity in L. plantarum strains. The fact that bsh2, bsh3, and bsh4 genes appeared to be conserved among L. plantarum strains suggests an important role of these genes in the physiology and lifestyle of the species L. plantarum. Analysis of these additional bsh-like genes in L. plantarum WCFS1 suggests that they might encode penicillin acylase rather than Bsh activity, indicating their implication in the conversion of substrates other than bile acids in the natural habitat.

Evaluation of Bile Salt Hydrolases, Cholesterol-Lowering Capabilities, and Probiotic Potential of Enterococcus faecium Isolated From Rhizosphere.

Project description:Bile salt hydrolase (BSH) activity, hypo-cholesterolemic effect, and probiotic properties have been reported for Enterococcus strains isolated from animal and human gut and fermented foods but not for strains isolated from environmental niches, like aquatic and terrestrial plants, soil, and water. The present study is the first report on isolation of Enterococcus faecium from rhizospheric soils that harbor the bsh gene, remove cholesterol in vitro, and possess essential and desirable probiotic attributes. Fifteen samples were collected from different sites located in northern, southern, and central regions of India, of which five yielded pure colonies that were named LR2, LR3, ER5, LR13, and VB1. These were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing as E. faecium and evaluated for BSH activity, cholesterol-lowering potential in vitro, and probiotic properties. Our results indicated that all the strains were capable of surviving the harsh conditions of the gastrointestinal tract and did not harbor any of the virulence genes. Though all strains showed the presence of bsh and potential for cholesterol removal, E. faecium strain LR13 showed a remarkable cholesterol removal capability and vancomycin susceptibility and possessed most of the desirable and essential attributes of a probiotic. Hence, it seems to be a fairly promising probiotic candidate that needs to be further evaluated in in vivo studies, especially for its hypo-cholesterolemic potential.

Safety Assessment of Lactiplantibacillus (formerly Lactobacillus) plantarum Q180.

Project description:The safety of the probiotic strain Q180, which exerts postprandial lipid-lowering effects, was bioinformatically and phenotypically evaluated. The genome of strain Q180 was completely sequenced, and single circular chromosome of 3,197,263 bp without any plasmid was generated. Phylogenetic and related analyses using16S rRNA gene and whole-genome sequences revealed that strain Q180 is a member of Lactiplantibacillus (Lp., formerly Lactobacillus) plantarum. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes were bioinformatically analyzed using all Lp. plantarum genomes available in GenBank, which showed that AMR genes are present differently depending on Lp. plantarum strains. Bioinformatic analysis demonstrated that some mobile genetic elements such as prophages and insertion sequences were identified in the genome of strain Q180, but because they did not contain harmful genes such as AMR genes and virulence factor (VF)- and toxin-related genes, it was suggested that there is no transferability of harmful genes. The minimum inhibition concentrations of seven tested antibiotics suggested by the European Food Safety Authority guidelines were slightly lower than or equal to the microbiological cut-off values for Lp. plantarum. Strain Q180 did not show hemolytic and gelatinase activities and biogenic amine-producing ability. Taken together, this study demonstrated the safety of strain Q180 in terms of absence of AMR genes and VF- and toxin-related genes as a probiotic strain.

Bioprospecting Antimicrobials from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum: Key Factors Underlying Its Probiotic Action.

Project description:Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) is a well-studied and versatile species of lactobacilli. It is found in several niches, including human mucosal surfaces, and it is largely employed in the food industry and boasts a millenary tradition of safe use, sharing a long-lasting relationship with humans. L. plantarum is generally recognised as safe and exhibits a strong probiotic character, so that several strains are commercialised as health-promoting supplements and functional food products. For these reasons, L. plantarum represents a valuable model to gain insight into the nature and mechanisms of antimicrobials as key factors underlying the probiotic action of health-promoting microbes. Probiotic antimicrobials can inhibit the growth of pathogens in the gut ensuring the intestinal homeostasis and contributing to the host health. Furthermore, they may be attractive alternatives to conventional antibiotics, holding potential in several biomedical applications. The aim of this review is to investigate the most relevant papers published in the last ten years, bioprospecting the antimicrobial activity of characterised probiotic L. plantarum strains. Specifically, it focuses on the different chemical nature, the action spectra and the mechanisms underlying the bioactivity of their antibacterial and antiviral agents. Emerging trends in postbiotics, some in vivo applications of L. plantarum antimicrobials, including strengths and limitations of their therapeutic potential, are addressed and discussed.

Whole Genome Sequencing of the Novel Probiotic Strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum FCa3L.

Project description:Lactiplantibacillus plantarum is best known for its significant adaptive potential and ability to colonize different ecological niches. Different strains of L. plantarum are widely used as probiotics. To characterize the probiotic potential of the novel L. plantarum FCa3L strain isolated from fermented cabbage, we sequenced its whole genome using the Illumina MiSeq platform. This bacterial isolate had a circular chromosome of 3,365,929 bp with 44.3% GC content and a cyclic phage phiX174 of 5386 bp with 44.7% GC content. The results of in vitro studies showed that FCa3L was comparable with the reference probiotic strain L. plantarum 8PA3 in terms of acid and bile tolerance, adhesiveness, H2O2 production, and acidification rate. The strain 8PA3 possessed higher antioxidant activity, while FCa3L demonstrated superior antibacterial properties. The antibiotic resistance of FCa3L was more relevant to the probiotic strain than that of 8PA3, although a number of silent antibiotic resistance genes were identified in its genome. Genomic evidence to support adhesive and antibacterial properties, biosynthesis of bioactive metabolites, and safety of FCa3L was also presented. Thus, this study confirmed the safety and probiotic properties of L. plantarum FCa3L via complete genome and phenotype analysis, suggesting its potential as a probiotic, although further in vivo investigations are still necessary.
