Project description:Although it is clear that probiotics improve intestinal barrier function, little is known about the effects of probiotics on the aging intestine. We investigated effects of 10-wk bacterial supplementation of Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1, Lactobacillus casei BL23, or Bifidobacterium breve DSM20213 on gut barrier and immunity in 16-week-old accelerated aging Ercc1-/Δ7 mice, which have a median lifespan of ~20wk, and their wild-type littermates. The colonic barrier in Ercc1-/Δ7 mice was characterized by a thin (<10µm) mucus layer. L. plantarum prevented this decline in mucus integrity in Ercc1-/Δ7 mice, whereas B. breve exacerbated it. Bacterial supplementations affected the expression of immune-related genes, including Toll-like receptor 4. Regulatory T cell frequencies were increased in the mesenteric lymph nodes of L. plantarum- and L. casei-treated Ercc1-/Δ7 mice. L. plantarum- and L. casei-treated Ercc1-/Δ7 mice showed increased specific antibody production in a T cell-dependent immune response in vivo. By contrast, the effects of bacterial supplementation on wild-type control mice were negligible. Thus, supplementation with L. plantarum – but not with L. casei and B. breve – prevented the decline in the mucus barrier in Ercc1-/Δ7 mice. Our data indicate that age is an important factor influencing beneficial or detrimental effects of candidate probiotics. These findings also highlight the need for caution in translating beneficial effects of probiotics observed in young animals or humans to the elderly.

Project description:Housekeeping sigma factors in the Sigma70 family, as components of the RNA polymerase holoenzyme, are responsible for regulating transcription of genes related to vegetative growth. While these factors are well understood in model organisms such as Escherchia coli and Bacillus subtilis, little experimental work has focused on the sigma factors in members of the Lactobacillus genus such as Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus plantarum. This study evaluates the ability of putative Sigma70 proteins from L. brevis (Sigma70-Lb) and L. plantarum (Sigma70-Lp) to complement a temperature sensitive mutation in E. coli 285c Sigma70. After finding that the heterologous sigma factors were capable of restoring the viability of E. coli 285c at 42 C through growth kinetics studies, the transcriptional responses of 285c to an extended heat shock in the presence of Sigma70-Lb and Sigma70-Lp were found to be similar to previous studies. These results indicate the Sigma70-Lb and Sigma70-Lp are capable of initiating transcription in a complex with the E. coli 285c RNA polymerase to a sufficient degree to restore viability at elevated temperatures without triggering unusual modifications to the native transcriptional program. These heterologous sigma factors may therefore be useful to improve biochemical knowledge of the sigma factor family or for use in transcriptional engineering. 3 biological replicates per sigma factor

Project description:Background: Lactobacillus plantarum is found in a variety of fermented foods and as such, consumed for centuries. Some strains are natural inhabitants of the human gastro-intestinal tract and like other Lactobacillus species, L. plantarum has been extensively studied for its immunomodulatory properties and its putative health-promoting effects (probiotic). Being the first line of host defense intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) are key players in the recognition and initiation of responses to gut microorganisms. Results: Using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays we examined the gene expression profiles of differentiated Caco-2 cells exposed to various doses of L. plantarum. In addition, the effects were correlated to monolayer permeability studies and measurement of lactic acid production. A transcriptional dose-dependent IEC response to L. plantarum was found. Incubation of Caco-2 with a low bacterial dose induced a specific response, not due to cytotoxicity or production of lactic acid, including modulation of cell cycle and cell signaling functions. Exposure of Caco-2 cells to larger amounts of bacteria, accompanied by the production of lactic acid and glucose depletion, provoked increased permeability and supposed non-specific defense responses. Conclusions: These results suggest that IEC are able to sense and react to the presence of gut bacteria. This study provides the first description of global transcriptional response of human IEC to a commensal lactic acid bacterium, and it shows the importance of choosing physiological bacterial doses to prevent the observation of non-specific host reactions. Caco-2 cells were exposed for 10h to Lactobacillus. Fourteen samples are analyzed: 4 control Caco-2, 4 Caco-2 exposed to a low dose (10) of Lactobacillus, 4 Caco-2 exposed to a medium dose (100) of Lactobacillus, 2 Caco-2 exposed to a high dose (1000) of Lactobacillus. All 14 RNA samples are labeled with Cy5 and hybridized to a common reference (undifferentiated Caco-2, untreated) RNA labeled with Cy3

Project description:Mannose-specific interactions of Lactobacillus plantarum 299v with jejunal epithelium were investigated using an in situ pig small intestinal segment perfusion (SISP) model. L. plantarum 299v wildtype strain was compared to two isogenic mutant strains either lacking the gene encoding for the mannose-specific adhesin (msa) or sortase (srtA; responsible for anchoring of cell surface proteins like Msa to the cell wall). Salmonella typhimurium served as a positive control for gene expression analysis. Scrapings from jejunal segments were collected after perfusion with bacterial suspensions or PBS (control) for 4 or 8 hours, and host gene expression was assessed using a home-made cDNA porcine microarray. Keywords: host-microbe interaction, Lactobacillus plantarum, mannose-specific adhesion A Small Intestinal Segment Perfusion (SISP) test was performed using 4 pigs. 10 segments were prepared in the jejunum of each pig and perfused with Lactobacillus plantarum 299v wildtype, Lactobacillus plantarum 299v msa mutant strain, Lactobacillus plantarum 299v srtA mutant strain, Salmonella typhimurium or PBS (control) for 4 or 8 hours. Pooled samples from each treatment at each timepoint were used for microarray analysis. 8 comparisons were done: L. plantarum wildtype vs control (4 hours), L. plantarum wildtype vs control (8 hours), L. plantarum msa mutant vs control (4 hours), L. plantarum msa mutant vs control (8 hours), L. plantarum srt mutant vs control (4 hours), L. plantarum srt mutant vs control (8 hours), S. typhimurium vs control (8 hours), samples taken at the beginning of the experiment vs control (8 hours). Dye-swaps were performed for each comparison.

Project description:"Bacillus subtilis is an aerobic, endospore forming, rod-shaped Gram-positive bacterium. It has a relatively small genome of 4,215,606 bp with 4,197 protein coding genes. It is considered a model organism to study natural phenomena, such as chromosome replication, sporulation or swarming motility. Furthermore, many bacterial pathogens are closely related to B. subtilis, making it a highly significant system for research on potential targets for drug therapeutics. Although B. subtilis is among the best characterised bacterial systems, many of its gene products are still non-annotated, completely uncharacterised and/or their post-translational landscape is unknown. In the current study we aim at broadening the available information on Bacillus subtilis by providing a comprehensive resource for the microbial community encompassing a wide array of information at the genome, proteome, phosphoproteome and acetylome level."

Project description:Some commensal bacteria stimulate the immune system but do not present specific antigenicity. Such adjuvant effects have been reported for the bacterial species Lactobacillus plantarum. To study in vivo human responses to L. plantarum, a randomised double-blind placebo-controlled cross-over study was performed. Healthy adults were provided preparations of living and heat-killed L. plantarum bacteria, biopsies were taken from the intestinal mucosa and altered transcriptional profiles were analysed. Transcriptional profiles of human epithelia displayed striking differences upon exposure to living L. plantarum bacteria harvested at different growth phases. Modulation of NF-κB-dependent pathways was central among the major altered cellular responses. This unique in vivo study shows which cellular pathways are associated with the induction of immune tolerance in mucosal tissues towards common adjuvanticity possessing lactobacilli. Keywords: mucosal response of healthy adult humans to lactic acid bacteria This study was set up according to a randomised double-blind cross-over placebo-controlled design. It contains transcriptional profiles from biopsies from 8 healthy individuals after oral intake of three different growth stages of Lactobacillus plantarum or placebo control. In total, this study includes data from 8 individuals x 4 treatments=32 arrays.
