Iorizzo M, Di Martino C, Letizia F, Crawford TW, Paventi G. Production of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) by Lactiplantibacillus plantarum: A Review with Emphasis on Fermented Foods. Foods 2024; 13:975. [PMID: 38611281 PMCID: PMC11012127 DOI: 10.3390/foods13070975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
The term Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) refers generically to a class of positional and geometric conjugated dienoic isomers of linoleic acid. Among the isomers of linoleic acid cis9, trans11-CLA (c9, t11-CLA) and trans10, cis12-CLA (t10, c12-CLA) are found to be biologically active isomers, and they occur naturally in milk, dairy products and meat from ruminants. In addition, some vegetables and some seafoods have also been reported to contain CLA. Although the CLA levels in these natural sources are insufficient to confer the essential health benefits, anti-carcinogenic or anti-cancer effects are of current interest. In the rumen, CLA is an intermediate of isomerization and the biohydrogenation process of linoleic acid to stearic acid conducted by ruminal microorganisms. In addition to rumen bacteria, some other bacteria, such as Propionibacterium, Bifidobacterium and some lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are also capable of producing CLA. In this regard, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum) has demonstrated the ability to produce CLA isomers from linoleic acid by multiple enzymatic activities, including hydration, dehydration, and isomerization. L. plantarum is one of the most versatile species of LAB and the bacterium is widely used in the food industry as a microbial food culture. Thus, in this review we critically analyzed the literature produced in the last ten years with the aim to highlight the potentiality as well as the optimal conditions for CLA production by L. plantarum. Evidence was provided suggesting that the use of appropriate strains of L. plantarum, as a starter or additional culture in the production of some fermented foods, can be considered a critical factor in the design of new CLA-enriched functional foods.

[PMID: 38248317 PMCID: PMC10814391 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46010015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
In recent decades, given the important role of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in human health, scientists have paid great attention to the enrichment of this chemical compound in food using various methods, including microbial fermentation. Moreover, GABA or GABA-rich products have been successfully commercialized as food additives or functional dietary supplements. Several microorganisms can produce GABA, including bacteria, fungi, and yeasts. Among GABA-producing microorganisms, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are commonly used in the production of many fermented foods. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum) is a LAB species that has a long history of natural occurrence and safe use in a wide variety of fermented foods and beverages. Within this species, some strains possess not only good pro-technological properties but also the ability to produce various bioactive compounds, including GABA. The present review aims, after a preliminary excursus on the function and biosynthesis of GABA, to provide an overview of the current uses of microorganisms and, in particular, of L. plantarum in the production of GABA, with a detailed focus on fermented foods. The results of the studies reported in this review highlight that the selection of new probiotic strains of L. plantarum with the ability to synthesize GABA may offer concrete opportunities for the design of new functional foods.

Metabolomic and transcriptional profiling of oleuropein bioconversion into hydroxytyrosol during table olive fermentation by Lactiplantibacillus plantarum. Appl Environ Microbiol 2022; 88:e0201921. [PMID: 35170988 PMCID: PMC8939334 DOI: 10.1128/aem.02019-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aims to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for the bioconversion of oleuropein into low-molecular-weight phenolic compounds in two selected Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains, namely, C11C8 and F3.5, under stress brine conditions and at two different temperatures (16°C and 30°C). For this purpose, we adopted an experimental strategy that combined high-resolution mass spectrometry, in silico functional analysis of glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1)-encoding candidate genes, and gene expression studies. The oleuropein hydrolysis products and the underlying enzymatic steps were identified, and a novel putative bgl gene was detected, using seven strains belonging to the same species as controls. According to metabolomic analysis, a new intermediate compound (decarboxymethyl dialdehydic form of oleuropein aglycone) was revealed. In addition, strain C11C8 showed a decrease in the oleuropein content greater than that of the F3.5 strain (30% versus 15%) at a temperature of 16°C. The highest increase in hydroxytyrosol was depicted by strain C11C8 at a temperature of 30°C. PCR assays and sequencing analyses revealed that both strains possess bglH1, bglH2, and bglH3 genes. Furthermore, a reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assay showed that bglH3 is the only gene transcribed under all tested conditions, while bglH2 is switched off in strain C11C8 grown at cold temperatures, and no transcription was detected for the bglH1 gene. The bglH3 gene encodes a 6-phospho-β-glucosidase, suggesting how phospho-β-glucosidase activity could belong to the overall metabolic strategy undertaken by L. plantarum to survive in an environment poor in free sugars, like table olives. IMPORTANCE In the present study, a new candidate gene, bglH3, responsible for the β-glucosidase-positive phenotype in L. plantarum was detected, providing the basis for the future marker-assisted selection of L. plantarum starter strains with a β-glucosidase-positive phenotype. Furthermore, the ability of selected strains to hydrolyze oleuropein at low temperatures is important for application as starter cultures on an industrial scale.

Inter- and Intra-Species Diversity of Lactic Acid Bacteria in Apis mellifera ligustica Colonies. Microorganisms 2020; 8:microorganisms8101578. [PMID: 33066358 PMCID: PMC7602248 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms8101578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2020] [Revised: 10/09/2020] [Accepted: 10/12/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria could positively affect the health of honey bees, including nutritional supplementation, immune system development and pathogen colonization resistance. Based on these considerations the present study evaluated predominant Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) species from beebread as well as from the social stomach and midgut of Apis mellifera ligustica honey bee foragers. In detail, for each compartment, the diversity in species and biotypes was ascertained through multiple culture-dependent approaches, consisting of Polymerase Chain Reaction-Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE), 16S rRNA gene sequencing and Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR). The study of a lactic acid bacteria community, performed with PCR-DGGE and sequence analysis targeting the V1-V3 region of the 16S rRNA gene (rDNA), highlighted the presence of a few species, including Apilactobacillus kunkeei, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Fructobacillus fructosus, Levilactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis. Depending on the different compartments, diverse levels of biodiversity in species were found. Particularly, a very low inter-species biodiversity was detected in the midgut that was prevalently dominated by the presence of Apilactobacillus kunkeei. On the other hand, the beebread was characterized by a reasonable biodiversity showing the presence of five species and the predominance of Apilactobacillus kunkeei, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Fructobacillus fructosus. The RAPD-PCR analysis performed on the three predominant species allowed the differentiation into several biotypes for each species. Moreover, a relationship between biotypes and compartments has been detected and each biotype was able to express a specific biochemical profile. The biotypes that populated the social stomach and midgut were able to metabolize sugars considered toxic for bees while those isolated from beebread could contribute to release useful compounds with functional properties. Based on this knowledge, new biotechnological approaches could be developed to improve the health of honey bees and the quality of bee products.

Abstract
Paenibacillus larvae is the causative agent of American foulbrood (AFB), a severe bacterial disease that affects larvae of honeybees. The present study evaluated, in vitro, antimicrobial activity of sixty-one Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains, against P. larvae ATCC 9545. Five strains (P8, P25, P86, P95 and P100) that showed the greatest antagonism against P. larvae ATCC 9545 were selected for further physiological and biochemical characterizations. In particular, the hydrophobicity, auto-aggregation, exopolysaccharides production, osmotic tolerance, enzymatic activity and carbohydrate assimilation patterns were evaluated. The five L. plantarum selected strains showed suitable physical and biochemical properties for their use as probiotics in the honeybee diet. The selection and availability of new selected bacteria with good functional characteristics and with antagonistic activity against P. larvae opens up interesting perspectives for new biocontrol strategies of diseases such as AFB.

Abstract
The present study, considering for the first time microbiological concerns due to the use of lemon albedo as a fat replacer, aimed at the selection of an anti-Listeria strain to be used as protective culture in low-fat southern Italian fermented sausages. In fact, these kinds of products require appropriate bio-protective strategies to avoid risks due to Listeria monocytogenes. Sixty-seven Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains isolated from diverse sources were screened for their antimicrobial activity and their interaction with starter strains (Latilactobacillus sakei 152 and Staphylococcus xylosus MVS9). Lactiplantibacillus plantarum Lpls100, highlighting both listericidal activity and the ability to promote Staphylococcus xylosus MVS9 growth, was used as a protective strain in low-fat fermented sausages prepared with lemon albedo as a fat replacer. The effect of the albedo and the protective strain on the fermentation process and the final quality was ascertained. Results highlighted that the use of the albedo did not affect the growth of starter strains and enhanced some quality features, such as fatty acid profiles and certain sensory attributes. However, the albedo also produced a slow decrease in water activity, compromising the microbial quality. The anti-Listeria strain, enhancing coagulase negative cocci growth and exerting antimicrobial activity, avoided the inconveniences caused by the use of the albedo. Moreover, the anti-Listeria effectiveness was assessed through a challenge test using a Listeria cocktail. The study revealed that Lactiplantibacillus plantarum Lpls100, regardless of the presence of the albedo, assures a prompt inhibition of Listeria spp. Therefore, its use could be an important contribution to the quality of low-fat fermented sausages.

Abstract
The use of malolactic starter cultures, often offer no guarantee of microbiological success due to the chemical and physical factors (pH, ethanol, SO2, nutrient availability) that occur during the winemaking process. This study was born with the aim of improving the performance of the lactic acid bacteria used as a starter culture in the de-acidification of wines. Two commercial strains of Oenococcus oeni, were used. Was evaluated the effect of exogenous l-proline added during the bacterial growth, on the improvement of their survival in the presence of different ethanol concentrations and their ability to degrade l-malic acid in synthetic wine with the presence of 12% (v/v) and 13% (v/v) of ethanol. The results showed that l-proline improve ethanol tolerance and so the malolactic performances of O. oeni. This work represents an important strategy to ensure good vitality and improve the performance of the malolactic starter.

Abstract
Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is a biological process that, in addition to deacidifying, also improves biological stability and changes the chemical and sensorial characteristics of wines. However, multiple biotic and abiotic factors, present in must and wine, make the onset and completion of MLF by indigenous malolactic bacteria or added commercial starters difficult. This work illustrates the metabolic and fermentative dynamics in winemaking Fiano wine, using a commercial starter of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the selected strain Lactobacillus plantarum M10. In particular, an inoculum of malolactic starter was assessed at the beginning of alcoholic fermentation (early co-inoculum), at half alcoholic fermentation (late co-inoculum), and post alcoholic fermentation (sequential inoculum). The malolactic starter, before its use, was pre-adapted in sub-optimal growth conditions (pH 5.0). In sequential inoculum of the Lb. plantarum M10, even in a wine with high acidity, has confirmed its good technological and enzymatic characteristics, completing the MLF and enriching the wine with desirable volatile compounds.

Abstract
In this study, the antimicrobial activity and the preservative properties of olive leaf extract (OLE) Olea europaea L. "Gentile di Larino" cultivar, were evaluated. The antibacterial activity was performed in vitro against spoilage bacterial strains: Pseudomonas fluorescens (ATCC 13525), Pseudomonas fragi (ATCC 4973), Pseudomonas putida (ATCC 17514), Brochotrix thermosphacta (ATCC 11509), Clostridium sporogenes (ATCC 11437), and Listeria innocua (ATCC 33090). About the preservative properties of OLE, they were evaluated in the marinating process of anchovy fillets. During the process have been determined the change of sensory characteristics and monitored these chemical parameters: pH, aw, salt content (% NaCl), thiobarbituric acid index (mgMA/Kg), total volatile basic nitrogen (mg/100g), and trimethylamine nitrogen (mg/100g). Moreover, were determined the spoilage bacteria on raw material, after 7 days and at the end of marination process, 22 days. The OLE exhibited an inhibitory effect against the bacteria tested. In marinated anchovy fillets, showed that the extract improves their shelf life without modifying the organoleptic characteristics of the product; this suggests that it could be considered in the food industry as a natural antioxidant and antimicrobial food additive.

Abstract
Current lye processing for debittering California black table olives produces large amounts of caustic wastewater and destroys many of the beneficial phenolic compounds in the fruit. Herein, we propose using enzyme treatment in place of lye, potentially reducing the amount and causticity of wastewater produced. By specifically targeting the bitterness-causing compound, oleuropein, retention of other beneficial phenolics may be possible. A β-glucosidase from Streptomyces sp. was identified from a screen of 22 glycosyl hydrolases to completely degrade oleuropein in 24 h. Computational modeling was performed on this enzyme, and mutation C181A was found to improve the rate of catalysis by 3.2-fold. This mutant was tested in the context of the olive fruit and leaf extract. Degradation was observed in the olive leaf extract but not in the fruit matrix, suggesting that enzyme fruit penetration is a limiting factor. This work discovers and begins the refinement process for an enzyme that has the catalytic properties for debittering olives and provides direction for future engineering efforts required to make a product with commercial value.

Abstract
Technological properties of two strains of Lactobacillus plantarum (B3 and B11) and one of Lactobacillus pentosus (B4), previously isolated from natural fermented green olives, have been studied in vitro. Acidifying ability, salt, temperature, and pH tolerances of all strains were found in the range reported for similar strains produced in Italy and optimal growth conditions were found to be 6.0–8.0 pH, 15–30°C temperature, and less than 6% NaCl. Moreover, all strains showed very good tolerance to common olive phenol content (0.3% total phenol) and high oleuropein-degrading capability. It was found that medium composition affected the bacterial oleuropein degradation. B11 strain grown in a nutrient-rich medium showed a lower oleuropein-degrading action than when it was cultivated in nutrient-poor medium. Furthermore, enzymatic activity assays revealed that oleuropein depletion did not correspond to an increase of hydroxytyrosol, evidencing that bacterial strains could efficiently degrade oleuropein via a mechanism different from hydrolysis.
