Abstract
Highly oil-accumulative diatoms are expected to be a promising biomass for the production of biofuel. To harvest the diatom oils at high yields, it is critical to elucidate the relationship of oil accumulation with photosynthesis under fluctuating environmental conditions. Here, we characterized the physiological responses of the growth and photosynthesis in the mesophilic diatom Fistulifera solaris and the cold-tolerant one Mayamaea sp. JPCC CTDA0820 to nitrogen starvation, one of the most notable abiotic stresses, where most eukaryotic algae decrease their photosynthetic activity and accumulate oil in the cells. While F. solaris started showing growth retardation at NaNO3 levels less than 50% of a normal F/2 artificial seawater (ASW) medium, Mayamaea sp. sustained normal growth even at a NaNO3 level 10% of normal F/2ASW, indicating the sharp contrast of nitrogen requirement between these two diatom species. In the transition from 100 to 0% nitrogen conditions in the modified F/2ASW, F. solaris showed a clear suppression of chlorophyll (Chl)-based photosynthetic O2 evolution rate and relative electron transport rate at photosystem II, which were negatively correlated to the capacity of non-photochemical quenching. Meanwhile, there was no change in these Chl-based parameters observed in nitrogen-starved Mayamaea sp. Instead, Mayamaea sp. showed a significant decrease in the Chl a amount per cells. These data suggested the occurrence of two types of photosynthetic responses to nitrogen starvation in oleaginous diatoms; that is, (1) suppression of photosynthetic activity per Chl with enhancing heat dissipation of excess light energy and (2) synchronous suppression of cellular photosynthetic activity with Chl amounts.

Purified Astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis Promotes Tissue Regeneration by Reducing Oxidative Stress and the Secretion of Collagen In Vitro and In Vivo. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:4946902. [PMID: 32832000 PMCID: PMC7424503 DOI: 10.1155/2020/4946902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2020] [Revised: 06/12/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Intracellular reactive apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in ultraviolet- (UV-) induced inflammation and aging reaction in human dermal tissues. This study determines the mechanism by which Haematococcus pluvialis extracts (HPE) and purified astaxanthin (HPA) to promote skin regeneration in the injured tissue in vitro and in vivo. The results show that HPE and HPA decrease the DNA damage and promote the secretion of collagen from the human normal fibroblast cell line (Hs68) in a dose-dependent manner. UV irradiation and HPA reduce oxidative stress damage due to phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA). When skin cells are injured by free radicals, cells undergo a programmed cellular death. Cellular apoptotic death is determined using annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)/propidium iodide (PI) double staining to verify that there is no cell membrane asymmetry and that the nuclear membrane is broken. Inflammatory symptoms and apoptotic injuries to experimental rats in a group that is treated with HPA treated are decreased in a dose-dependent manner after UVB exposure (300 mJ/cm2) for 15 min in vivo, compared to the vehicle control group. These positive results show that HPA repairs UVB-triggered skin tissue injury and aging by conducting electrons out of cells to maintain a low level of oxidative stress so that collagen is synthesized in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Diatom algae can produce bioactive compounds like fucoxanthin (FX) and ecosapentaenoic acid (EPA) which are of high demand in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries. Here, the influence of different light regimes in combination with major nutrients on growth, FX and EPA production by marine diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii were investigated. Batch cultures of T. weissflogii were illuminated under blue (BL), red (RL) and white (WL) light at two intensities. BL regime resulted in higher cell density with a specific growth rate of 2.49µ. Lipid productivity and lipid % as dry cell weight (DCW) was considerably higher in BL with EPA productivity of 33.4 mg L-1d-1. Fucoxanthin content as % DCW reached 0.95 (BL), 0.75 (RL) and 0.81 (WL) at mid exponential growth phase. The results further prove the plasticity of diatoms and provide a way for future metabolic engineering of T. weissflogii for potential microalgal bio-refinery for combined EPA and FX production.

Abstract
Oleaginous microorganisms are among the most promising alternative sources of lipids for oleochemicals and biofuels. However, in the course of lipid production, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated inevitably as byproducts of aerobic metabolisms. Although excessive accumulation of ROS leads to lipid peroxidation, DNA damage, and protein denaturation, ROS accumulation has been suggested to enhance lipid synthesis in these microorganisms. There are many unresolved questions concerning this dichotomous view of ROS influence on lipid accumulation. These include what level of ROS triggers lipid overproduction, what mechanisms and targets are vital and whether ROS act as toxic byproducts or cellular messengers in these microorganisms? Here we review the current state of knowledge on ROS generation, antioxidative defense system, the dual effects of ROS on microbial lipid production, and ROS-induced lipid peroxidation and accumulation mechanisms. Toward the end, the review summarizes strategies that enhance lipid production based on ROS manipulation.

Abstract
Lipid production in microalgae can be induced by various stress factors. However, stress induced lipid accumulation requires considerable time leading to the decrease in lipid productivity. Here, we attempted to increase the lipid productivity while maintaining the high growth of Ettlia sp. by optimizing nitrogen concentration and UV exposure in a continuous culture. The biomass and lipid productivities of Ettlia sp. cultured with 150 mg N L-1 and UV-A added PAR were 1.67 ± 0.08 g L-1 d-1 and 0.55 ± 0.05 g L-1 d-1, respectively. Lipid productivity and lipid content were around 43.7% and 33.7% higher, respectively in UV-A treatment compared to the control. Moreover, gene-expression patterns related to antioxidant defense and intracellular ROS levels indicated that UV-A affected certain ROS and antioxidants pathways and successfully induced the lipid accumulation in Ettlia sp. This strategy to activate lipid accumulation can be applied in other microalgae without affecting their growth.

Abstract
An increase in the total lipid content in algal cells under stress conditions is often accompanied by an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the link between these two events is unclear. In this study, the regulatory mechanism of ROS formation on lipid accumulation in C. pyrenoidosa was investigated using a Fenton-like reaction. A high Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.901 was obtained between the Hydroxyl radical (OH) level and lipid content. Importantly, the increase in the total lipid content was clearly coupled with a significant increase in the intracellular OH concentration rather than increases in the H2O2 and O2- concentrations. Transcriptome data confirms that most of the differential expression genes (DEGs) involved in fatty acid and glycerolipid biosynthesis were up-regulated by the increased OH under stress conditions. These results reveal that lipid accumulation in algal cells was promoted by OH.

Abstract
With objective to design cyanobacterial biorefinery, taking Lyngbya as a model organism, a detail sequential protocol has been developed for production of UV protectant and lipids. This study addresses ultra violet radiations (UVR), exposure time of UVRT, nitrogen stress, salinity, oxidative stress to produce UV protectant and lipid in cyanobacteria. To evaluate these parameters a design of experiment (DOE; using a 2 k design) was performed. Based on chemical solubility property of UV protectant in form of mycosporine like amino acid (MAAs) and lipids were extracted. Quantitative and qualitative assay of UV protectant was confirmed by spectrophotometric scanning and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and lipid through fatty acid methyl esters analysis. Nitrogen abundance and high oxidative stress is helpful in the synthesis of UV protectant. This study concluded, UV exposure is good strategy to induce synthesis of UV protectant and saturated lipid productivity. This biorefinery approach encourages economical and environmentally sustainable options.
