Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) imposes a significant impact on the quality of life for affected individuals. However, there was a current lack of a systematic summary regarding the latest epidemic trends and the underlying pathogenesis of IBD. This highlights the need for a thorough examination of both the epidemiological aspects of IBD and the specific mechanisms by which lactic acid bacteria (LAB) contribute to mitigating this condition. In developed countries, higher incidences and death rates of IBD have been observed, influenced by a combination of environmental and genetic factors. LAB offer significant advantages and substantial potential for enhancing IBD treatment. LAB's capabilities include the production of bioactive metabolites, regulation of gut immunity, protection of intestinal mechanical barriers, inhibition of oxidative damage, and restoration of imbalanced gut microbiota. The review suggests that screening effective LAB using cell models and metabolites, optimizing LAB intake through dose-effect studies, enhancing utilization through nanoencapsulation and microencapsulation, investigating mechanisms to deepen the understanding of LAB, and refining clinical study designs. These efforts aim to contribute to comprehending the epidemic trend, pathogenesis, and treatment of IBD, ultimately fostering the development of targeted therapeutic products, such as LAB-based interventions.

Feruloyl Esterase ( LaFae) from Lactobacillus acidophilus: Structural Insights and Functional Characterization for Application in Ferulic Acid Production. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:11170. [PMID: 37446348 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241311170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2023] [Revised: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Ferulic acid and related hydroxycinnamic acids, used as antioxidants and preservatives in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, are among the most abundant phenolic compounds present in plant biomass. Identification of novel compounds that can produce ferulic acid and hydroxycinnamic acids, that are safe and can be mass-produced, is critical for the sustainability of these industries. In this study, we aimed to obtain and characterize a feruloyl esterase (LaFae) from Lactobacillus acidophilus. Our results demonstrated that LaFae reacts with ethyl ferulate and can be used to effectively produce ferulic acid from wheat bran, rice bran and corn stalks. In addition, xylanase supplementation was found to enhance LaFae enzymatic hydrolysis, thereby augmenting ferulic acid production. To further investigate the active site configuration of LaFae, crystal structures of unliganded and ethyl ferulate-bound LaFae were determined at 2.3 and 2.19 Å resolutions, respectively. Structural analysis shows that a Phe34 residue, located at the active site entrance, acts as a gatekeeper residue and controls substrate binding. Mutating this Phe34 to Ala produced an approximately 1.6-fold increase in LaFae activity against p-nitrophenyl butyrate. Our results highlight the considerable application potential of LaFae to produce ferulic acid from plant biomass and agricultural by-products.

The Respiratory Commensal Bacterium Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum as a Mucosal Adjuvant for Nasal Vaccines. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:vaccines11030611. [PMID: 36992195 PMCID: PMC10058227 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11030611] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that nasally administered Corynebacterium pseudodiphteriticum 090104 (Cp) or its bacterium-like particles (BLPs) increase the resistance of mice against bacterial and viral respiratory pathogens by modulating the innate immunity. In this work, we evaluated the ability of Cp and BLPs to stimulate alveolar macrophages, and to enhance the humoral immune response induced by a commercial vaccine against Streptococcus pneumoniae. In the first set of experiments, Cp or the BLPs were incubated with primary cultures of murine alveolar macrophages and the phagocytic activity, and the production of cytokines was evaluated. The results revealed that Cp and BLPs were efficiently phagocyted by respiratory macrophages and that both treatments triggered the production of TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-6, and IL-1β. In the second set of experiments, 3-week-old Swiss mice were intranasally immunized at days 0, 14, and 28 with the pneumococcal vaccine Prevenar®13 (PCV), Cp + PCV, or BLPs + PCV. On day 33, samples of bronco-alveolar lavages (BAL) and serum were collected for the study of specific antibodies. In addition, immunized mice were challenged with S. pneumoniae serotypes 6B or 19F on day 33 and sacrificed on day 35 (day 2 post-infection) to evaluate the resistance to the infection. Both Cp + PCV and BLPs + PCV groups had higher specific serum IgG and BAL IgA antibodies than the PCV control mice. In addition, the mice that were immunized with Cp + PCV or BLPs + PCV had lower lung and blood pneumococcal cell counts as well as lower levels of BAL albumin and LDH, indicating a reduced lung damage compared to the control mice. Improved levels of anti-pneumococcal antibodies were also detected in the serum and BAL samples after the challenges with the pathogens. The results demonstrated that C. pseudodiphteriticum 090104 and its bacterium-like particles are capable of stimulating the respiratory innate immune system serving as adjuvants to potentiate the adaptive humoral immune response. Our study is a step forward in the positioning of this respiratory commensal bacterium as a promising mucosal adjuvant for vaccine formulations aimed at combating respiratory infectious diseases.

Abstract
Synthetic biology has grown exponentially in the last few years, with a variety of biological applications. One of the emerging applications of synthetic biology is to exploit the link between microorganisms, biologics, and human health. To exploit this link, it is critical to select effective synthetic biology tools for use in appropriate microorganisms that would address unmet needs in human health through the development of new game-changing applications and by complementing existing technological capabilities. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are considered appropriate chassis organisms that can be genetically engineered for therapeutic and industrial applications. Here, we have reviewed comprehensively various synthetic biology techniques for engineering probiotic LAB strains, such as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 mediated genome editing, homologous recombination, and recombineering. In addition, we also discussed heterologous protein expression systems used in engineering probiotic LAB. By combining computational biology with genetic engineering, there is a lot of potential to develop next-generation synthetic LAB with capabilities to address bottlenecks in industrial scale-up and complex biologics production. Recently, we started working on Lactochassis project where we aim to develop next generation synthetic LAB for biomedical application.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria antimicrobial peptides (LABAMPs) are a class of active polypeptide produced during the metabolic process of lactic acid bacteria, which can inhibit or kill pathogenic bacteria or spoilage bacteria in food. LABAMPs have broad application in important practical fields closely related to human beings, such as food production, efficient agricultural planting, and so on. However, screening for antimicrobial peptides by biological experiment researchers is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a model to predict LABAMPs. In this work, we design a graph convolutional neural network framework for identifying of LABAMPs. We build heterogeneous graph based on amino acids, tripeptide and their relationships and learn weights of a graph convolutional network (GCN). Our GCN iteratively completes the learning of embedded words and sequence weights in the graph under the supervision of inputting sequence labels. We applied 10-fold cross-validation experiment to two training datasets and acquired accuracy of 0.9163 and 0.9379 respectively. They are higher that of other machine learning and GNN algorithms. In an independent test dataset, accuracy of two datasets is 0.9130 and 0.9291, which are 1.08% and 1.57% higher than the best methods of other online webservers.

Abstract
Early life is a “critical window” for gut microbiota development, antibiotic use during this period exerts a profound effect on gut microbial dysbiosis and asthma. In clinical practice, antibiotics are usually used in patients with bacterial infections, we previously showed that neonatal S. pneumoniae pneumonia promoted adult-onset asthma in mice model, while it remains unclear whether neonatal S. pneumoniae infection have long-term effects on gut microbiota. Neonatal BALB/c mice were inoculated with 5*106 CFU D39 to establish non-lethal S. pneumoniae pneumonia model. At 2, 3, 8 weeks of age, feces in the cecum were prepared for 16S rRNA sequencing, lungs were collected for histopathologic and lung function analysis. S. pneumoniae-infected neonatal mice exhibited histopathologic lesions in their lungs and increased airway hyperresponsiveness, obvious alterations in alpha and beta diversities in the entire gut microbiota, and changes of the community structure during the breastfeeding period, infancy, and adulthood. Furthermore, gut microbial composition was modified after neonatal S. pneumoniae infection, with a decreased relative abundance of Lactobacillus in the breastfeeding period and infancy; in adulthood, the relative abundance of Allobaculum diminished while that of Proteobacteria was augmented. Neonatal S. pneumoniae infection induced a long-term alteration in microbial community composition.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play a very vital role in food production, preservation, and as probiotic agents. Some of these species can colonize and survive longer in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), where their presence is crucially helpful to promote human health. LAB has also been used as a safe and efficient incubator to produce proteins of interest. With the advent of genetic engineering, recombinant LAB have been effectively employed as vectors for delivering therapeutic molecules to mucosal tissues of the oral, nasal, and vaginal tracks and for shuttling therapeutics for diabetes, cancer, viral infections, and several gastrointestinal infections. The most important tool needed to develop genetically engineered LABs to produce proteins of interest is a plasmid-based gene expression system. To date, a handful of constitutive and inducible vectors for LAB have been developed, but their limited availability, host specificity, instability, and low carrying capacity have narrowed their spectrum of applications. The current review discusses the plasmid-based vectors that have been developed so far for LAB; their functionality, potency, and constraints; and further highlights the need for a new, more stable, and effective gene expression platform for LAB.

Abstract
The second (lignocellulosic biomass and industrial wastes) and third (algal biomass) generation feedstocks gained substantial interest as a source of various value-added chemicals, produced by fermentation. Lactic acid is a valuable platform chemical with both traditional and newer applications in many industries. The successful fractionation, separation, and hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass result in sugars’ rich raw material for lactic acid fermentation. This review paper aims to summarize the investigations and progress in the last 5 years in lactic acid production from inexpensive and renewable resources. Different aspects are discussed—the type of raw materials, pretreatment and detoxification methods, lactic acid-producers (bacteria, fungi, and yeasts), use of genetically manipulated microorganisms, separation techniques, different approaches of process organization, as well as main challenges, and possible solutions for process optimization.

Abstract
A novel bifunctional β-lactamase/esterase (LgLacI), which is capable of hydrolyzing β-lactam-containing antibiotics including ampicillin, oxacillin, and cefotaxime as well as synthesizing biodiesels, was cloned from Lactococcus garvieae. Unlike most bacterial esterases/lipases that have G-x-S-x-G motif, LgLacI, which contains S-x-x-K catalytic motif, has sequence similarities to bacterial family VIII esterase as well as β-lactamases. The catalytic properties of LgLacI were explored using a wide range of biochemical methods including spectroscopy, assays, structural modeling, mutagenesis, and chromatography. We confirmed the bifunctional property of LgLacI hydrolyzing both esters and β-lactam antibiotics. This study provides novel perspectives into a bifunctional enzyme from L. garvieae, which can degrade β-lactam antibiotics with high esterase activity.

Abstract
Since inclusion bodies (IBs) contain an important amount of properly folded and active proteins, their solubilization using nondenaturing conditions to obtain aggregation-prone proteins has gained interest. Through these conditions, the refolding step is no longer required, which avoids the usual protein yield loss after this process. Here, we reveal a simple methodology to obtain pure and active difficult-to-produce proteins using two LPS-free expression systems: Lactococcus lactis and Lactobacillus plantarum. This protocol has proven to be successful to obtain proteins which are labile and prone-to-attach (difficult to be purified from other cytoplasmic proteins) and prone-to-aggregate (difficult to be obtained in their soluble form).

Abstract
Nowadays, the growing human population exacerbates the need for sustainable resources. Inspiration and achievements in nutrient production or human/animal health might emanate from microorganisms and their adaptive strategies. Here, we exemplify the benefits of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) for numerous biotechnological applications and showcase their natural transformability as a fast and robust method to hereditarily influence their phenotype/traits in fundamental and applied research contexts. We described the biogenesis of the transformation machinery and we analyzed the genome of hundreds of LAB strains exploitable for human needs to predict their transformation capabilities. Finally, we provide a stepwise rational path to stimulate and optimize natural transformation with standard and synthetic biology techniques. A comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving natural transformation will facilitate and accelerate the improvement of bacteria with properties that serve broad societal interests.

Abstract
5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), a non-proteinogenic five-carbon amino acid, has received intensive attentions in medicine due to its approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for cancer diagnosis and treatment as photodynamic therapy. As chemical synthesis of 5-ALA performed low yield, complicated processes, and high cost, biosynthesis of 5-ALA via C4 (also called Shemin pathway) and C5 pathway related to heme biosynthesis in microorganism equipped more advantages. In C4 pathway, 5-ALA is derived from condensation of succinyl-CoA and glycine by 5-aminolevulic acid synthase (ALAS) with pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) as co-factor in one-step biotransformation. The C5 pathway involves three enzymes comprising glutamyl-tRNA synthetase (GltX), glutamyl-tRNA reductase (HemA), and glutamate-1-semialdehyde aminotransferase (HemL) from α-ketoglutarate in TCA cycle to 5-ALA and heme. In this review, we describe the recent results of 5-ALA production from different genes and microorganisms via genetic and metabolic engineering approaches. The regulation of different chassis is fine-tuned by applying synthetic biology and boosts 5-ALA production eventually. The purification process, challenges, and opportunities of 5-ALA for industrial applications are also summarized.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), a diverse family of gram-positive bacteria, has been proven effective in delivering varieties of therapeutic and prophylactic molecules such as antigens and cytokines. Featuring the properties of acid-resistant, high uptake into Peyer's patches, and superior capacity for inducing secretory IgA antibodies, LAB have good potential to be used as vaccine vectors for mucosal vaccination. Mucosal immunization enables both mucosal and systemic immune responses, which are critical for resisting pathogens that invade the host through the mucosal surfaces. With the development of genetic engineering, LAB strains, primarily Lactococcus and Lactobacillus have been exploited to express a range of heterologous antigens. Numerous studies have demonstrated that LAB mucosal vaccines can stimulate all arms of the immune system to provide adequate protection against pathogen infections. Additionally, several LAB-based human papillomavirus vaccines have entered the clinical trial studies, which suggest the great promise of LAB vaccines for new interventions in mucosal transport diseases. Herein, we will discuss the factors that influence the immunogenicity of LAB vaccines, including LAB strains, the location of antigens, and administration routes, and focus on the current strategies that have been reported for optimizing LAB vaccines.

Abstract
Rhodococcus spp. are a group of non-model gram-positive bacteria with diverse catabolic activities and strong adaptive capabilities, which enable their wide application in whole-cell biocatalysis, environmental bioremediation, and lignocellulosic biomass conversion. Compared with model microorganisms, the engineering of Rhodococcus is challenging because of the lack of universal molecular tools, high genome GC content (61% ~ 71%), and low transformation and recombination efficiencies. Nevertheless, because of the high interest in Rhodococcus species for bioproduction, various genetic elements and engineering tools have been recently developed for Rhodococcus spp., including R. opacus, R. jostii, R. ruber, and R. erythropolis, leading to the expansion of the genetic toolkits for Rhodococcus engineering. In this article, we provide a comprehensive review of the important developed genetic elements for Rhodococcus, including shuttle vectors, promoters, antibiotic markers, ribosome binding sites, and reporter genes. In addition, we also summarize gene transfer techniques and strategies to improve transformation efficiency, as well as random and precise genome editing tools available for Rhodococcus, including transposition, homologous recombination, recombineering, and CRISPR/Cas9. We conclude by discussing future trends in Rhodococcus engineering. We expect that more synthetic and systems biology tools (such as multiplex genome editing, dynamic regulation, and genome-scale metabolic models) will be adapted and optimized for Rhodococcus.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a group of highly specialised bacteria specifically adapted to a diverse range of habitats. They are found in the gut of humans and other animals, in many food fermentations, and on plants. Their natural specialisation in close relation to human activities make them particularly interesting from an industrial point of view. They are relevant not only for traditional food fermentations, but also as probiotics, potential therapeutics and cell factories for the production of many different products. Many new tools and methods are being developed to analyse and modify these microorganisms. This review shall give an overview highlighting some of the most striking characteristics of lactic acid bacteria and our approaches to harness their potential in many respects - from home made food to industrial chemical production, from probiotic activities to the most modern cancer treatments and vaccines.

Abstract
Lactobacillus species have been studied for over 30 years in their role as commensal organisms in the human gut. Recently there has been a surge of interest in their abilities to natively and recombinantly stimulate immune activities, and studies have identified strains and novel molecules that convey particular advantages for applications as both immune adjuvants and immunomodulators. In this review, we discuss the recent advances in Lactobacillus-related activity at the gut/microbiota interface, the efforts to probe the boundaries of the direct and indirect therapeutic potential of these bacteria, and highlight the continued interest in harnessing the native capacity for the production of biogenic compounds shown to influence nervous system activity. Taken together, these aspects underscore Lactobacillus species as versatile therapeutic delivery vehicles capable of effector production at the lumenal-mucosal interface, and further establish a foundation of efficacy upon which future engineered strains can expand.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2), causing the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), was introduced by WHO (World Health Organization) as "pandemic" in March 2020. According to WHO, thus far (23 November 2020) 58,425,681 infected cases including 1,385,218 deaths have been reported worldwide. In order to reduce transmission and spread of this lethal virus, attempts are globally being made to develop an appropriate vaccine. Intending to neutralize pathogens at their initial entrance site, protective mucosal immunity is inevitably required. In SARS-CoV2 infection and transmission, respiratory mucosa plays a key role; hence, apparently mucosal vaccination could be a superior approach to elicit mucosal and systemic immune responses simultaneously. In this review, the advantages of mucosal vaccination to control COVID-19 infection, limitations, and outcomes of mucosal vaccines have been highlighted. Considering the gut microbiota dysregulation in COVID-19, we further provide evidences on utilization of recombinant probiotics, particularly lactic acid bacteria (LAB) as vaccine carrier. Their intrinsic immunomodulatory features, natural adjuvanticity, and feasible expression of relevant antigen in the mucosal surface make them more appealing as live cell factory. Among all available platforms, bioengineered probiotics are considered as the most affordable, most practical, and safest vaccination approach to halt this emerging virus.

Recombinant Lactococcus Expressing a Novel Variant of Infectious Bursal Disease Virus VP2 Protein Can Induce Unique Specific Neutralizing Antibodies in Chickens and Provide Complete Protection.

Abstract
Recent reports of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infections in China, Japan, and North America have indicated the presence of variant, and the current conventional IBDV vaccine cannot completely protect against variant IBDV. In this study, we constructed recombinant Lactococcus lactis (r-L. lactis) expressing a novel variant of IBDV VP2 (avVP2) protein along with the Salmonella resistance to complement killing (RCK) protein, and Western blotting analysis confirmed that r-L. lactis successfully expressed avVP2-RCK fusion protein. We immunized chickens with this vaccine and subsequently challenged them with the very virulent IBDV (vvIBDV) and a novel variant wild IBDV (avIBDV) to evaluate the immune effect of the vaccine. The results show that the r-L. lactis-avVP2-RCK-immunized group exhibited a 100% protection rate when challenged with avIBDV and 100% survival rate to vvIBDV. Furthermore, this immunization resulted in the production of unique neutralizing antibodies that cannot be detected by conventional ELISA. These results indicate that r-L. lactis-avVP2-RCK is a promising candidate vaccine against IBDV infections, which can produce unique neutralizing antibodies that cannot be produced by other vaccines and protect against IBDV infection, especially against the variant strain.
