Project description:The presence of tagatose in Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG caused induction of a large number of genes associated with carbohydrate metabolism including the phosphotransferase system. In addition, these results indicate the tagatose enhanced the growth of Lactobacillus casei 01 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG and their probiotic activities by activating tagatose-associated PTS networks. Two-condition experiment, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG with glucose vs. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG with tagatose. For preparing the total RNA, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG cells were grown at 37M-BM-0C in prebiotic minimum medium supplemented with 2% glucose or tagatose for 24 h.

Project description:The bacterium Lactobacillus rhamnosus antagonizes the fungus Candida albicans. The transcriptional response of C. albicans to the presence of L. rhamnosus in an in vitro infection model with and without antibiotic treatment was investigated using microarrays.
Project description:We have developed a microfluidics-based in vitro model of the human gut allowing co-culture of human and microbial cells and subsequent multi-omic assessment of the effect of the co-culture on the host transcriptome. We compare the transcriptional changes induced in the human epithelial cell line, Caco-2 after co-culture with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG or a consortium of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bacteroides caccae.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG mid-exponential pH-controlled bioreactor cultures before and after exposure to bovine bile (0.2% ox gall). Keywords: bile, stress response Cell samples from four biological replicates were harvested right before (time point 0 min) and 10, 30 and 120 min after bile treatment. Each sample was compared to a common reference sample (time point 0 min, mid-exponential growth phase Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG cultures). A total of 12 hybridizations were performed using balanced dye-swap design. Dyes were balanced between compared sample pairs and between biological replicates.

Project description:The present study reports comparative surfacomics (study of cell-surface exposed proteins) of the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG and the dairy strain Lc705.
Project description:This study aimed to investigate the effects of oral administration of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on gene expression in murine ileum. Two LAB strains, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis C59 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, were administered to mice for 2 weeks. Microarray analysis was performed using total RNA from upper and lower ileum to detail the gene expression of 3 groups; control, C59-administered and GG-administered. Gene expression of upper ileum was less affected by administered strains than that of lower ileum and the latter was strain-specifically affected.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG during growth in industrial-type whey medium in pH-controlled bioreactor cultures at two different growth pH: 4.8 and 5.8. Keywords: growth phase, growth pH
