Sadek A, Taminiau B, Daube G, Sapountzis P, Chaucheyras-Durand F, Castex M, Coucheney F, Drider D. Impact of Dietary Regime and Seasonality on Hindgut's Mycobiota Diversity in Dairy Cows. Microorganisms 2023; 12:84. [PMID: 38257911 PMCID: PMC10820462 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms12010084] [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: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
We describe and discuss the intestinal mycobiota of dairy cows reared in France following variations in dietary regimes and two seasons. Two groups of 21 animals were followed over a summer and winter period, and another group of 28 animals was followed only during the same summer season. The summer diet was based on grazing supplemented with 3-5 kg/d of maize, grass silage and hay, while the winter diet consisted of 30% maize silage, 25% grass silage, 15% hay and 30% concentrate. A total of 69 DNA samples were extracted from the feces of these cows. Amplification and sequencing of the ITS2 region were used to assess mycobiota diversity. Analyses of alpha and beta diversity were performed and compared statistically. The mycobiota changed significantly from summer to winter conditions with a decrease in its diversity, richness and evenness parameters, while beta diversity analysis showed different mycobiota profiles. Of note, the Geotrichum operational taxonomic unit (OTU) was prevalent in the winter group, with a mean relative abundance (RA) of 65% of the total mycobiota. This Geotrichum OTU was also found in the summer group, but to a lesser extent (5%). In conclusion, a summer grazing diet allowed a higher fecal fungal diversity. These data show, for the first time, that a change in diet associated with seasonality plays a central role in shaping hindgut fungal diversity.

Abstract
Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are extracellular metabolites of microorganisms, highly associated with microbial function, adaptation, and growth. The main compounds in EPS have been revealed to be proteins, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, humic substances, lipids, etc. EPS are not only biomass, but also a biogenic material. EPS have high specific surface, abundant functional groups, and excellent degradability. In addition, they are more extensible to the environment than the microbial cells themselves, which exhibits their huge advantages. Therefore, they have been applied in many fields, such as the environment, ecosystem, basic commodities, and medicine. However, the functions of EPS highly depend on the suitable extraction process, as different extraction methods have different effects on their composition, structure, and function. There are many types of EPS extraction methods, in which physical and chemical methods have been widely utilized. This review summarizes the extraction methods and applications of EPS. In addition, it considers some important gaps in current knowledge, and indicates perspectives of EPS for their future study.

Abstract
Fungi are the most diverse living organisms on planet Earth, where their ubiquitous presence in various ecosystems offers vast potential for the research and discovery of new, naturally occurring medicinal products. Concerning human health, cancer remains one of the leading causes of mortality. While extensive research is being conducted on treatments and their efficacy in various stages of cancer, finding cytotoxic drugs that target tumor cells with no/less toxicity toward normal tissue is a significant challenge. In addition, traditional cancer treatments continue to suffer from chemical resistance. Fortunately, the cytotoxic properties of several natural products derived from various microorganisms, including fungi, are now well-established. The current review aims to extract and consolidate the findings of various scientific studies that identified fungi-derived bioactive metabolites with antitumor (anticancer) properties. The antitumor secondary metabolites identified from extremophilic and extremotolerant fungi are grouped according to their biological activity and type. It became evident that the significance of these compounds, with their medicinal properties and their potential application in cancer treatment, is tremendous. Furthermore, the utilization of omics tools, analysis, and genome mining technology to identify the novel metabolites for targeted treatments is discussed. Through this review, we tried to accentuate the invaluable importance of fungi grown in extreme environments and the necessity of innovative research in discovering naturally occurring bioactive compounds for the development of novel cancer treatments.

Abstract
The rumen of ruminants is inhabited by complex and diverse microorganisms. Young animals are exposed to a variety of microorganisms from their mother and the environment, and a few colonize and survive in their digestive tracts, forming specific microflora as the young animals grow and develop. In this study, we conducted full-length sequencing of bacterial and fungal communities in the rumen of pastured yaks of different ages (from 5 days after birth to adulthood) using amplified sequencing technology. The results showed that the rumen microflora of Zhongdian yaks changed gradually from 5 to 180 days after birth and tended to stabilize at 2 years of age. The rumen of adult yaks was the most suitable for the growth and reproduction of most bacteria. Bactria diversity of the yak rumen increased gradually from 5 days after birth to adulthood. With the growth of yaks, different dominated bacteria were enriched in different groups, but Prevotella remained highly abundant in all groups. The yak rumen at 90 days of age was the most suitable for the growth and reproduction of most fungi, and 90 days of age could be a cut-off point for the distribution of fungal communities. Fungal Thelebolus was the firstly reported in yak rumen and was enriched in the yak rumen of 90 days after birth. The most abundant and balanced fungal genera were found in adult yaks, and most of them were only detected in adult yaks. Our study reported on the rumen bacterial and fungal communities of Zhongdian yaks grazed at different ages and provided insights into the dynamic changes of dominant microflora with yak growth.

Abstract
Sheath blight, caused by Rhizoctonia solani (R. solani), is one of the most serious diseases of rice. Extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) are complex polysaccharides secreted by microbes that have a pivotal role in the plant-microbe interaction. At present, many studies have been carried out on R. solani, but it is not very clear whether the EPS is secreted by R. solani exists. Therefore, we isolated and extracted the EPS from R. solani, two kinds of EPS (EW-I and ES-I) were obtained by DEAE-cellulose 52 and Sephacryl S-300HR column further purification, and their structures were characterized by FT-IR, UV, GC, and NMR analysis. The results showed that EW-I and ES-I had similar monosaccharide composition but different molar ratio, they were composed of fucose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, and mannose with a ratio of 7.49: 27.72: 2.98: 6.66: 55.15 and 3.81: 12.98: 6.15: 10.83: 66.23, and their backbone may be composed of →2)-α-Manp-(1→ residues, beside ES-I was highly branched compared to EW-I. The exogenous application of EW-I and ES-I had no effect on the growth of R. solani AG1 IA itself, but their pretreatment of rice induced plant defense through activation of the salicylic acid pathway, resulting in enhanced resistance to sheath blight.

Abstract
Artificial humic acid (A-HA), which is synthesized from agricultural wastes and has high similarity to a natural humic substance (HS) extracted from soil, has been proven by our group to have potential for biological carbon sequestration in black soils. However, the mechanism involves in the application of A-HA on soil aggregation processes resulting from microbial activity stimulation and modifications to microbial communities remains unclear. This study investigates the correlation between the formation and stability of soil aggregates and fungal communities with various amounts of A-HA added to the rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soil. A-HA can increase the total organic carbon (TOC) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in soil, promoting macroaggregate formation and increasing the mean weight diameter (MWD). In addition, soil aggregate binding agents such as polysaccharides, protein, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), and glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) are significantly increased by the addition of A-HA. A-HA can drive microaggregate to assemble into macroaggregate by increasing the abundance of beneficial fungi (e.g., Trichoderma and Mortierella). The co-occurrence network supports that A-HA shifted the key species and increased interactions of fungal taxa. This study will lay a solid foundation for sustainable agricultural development of A-HA application for soil fertility restoration in the future.

Abstract
The study aimed to investigate exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by two Antarctic yeasts isolated from Livingston Island. The species were identified as Vishniacozyma victoriae (V) and Tremellomycetes sp. (T) based on a molecular genetic analysis of ITS1-5.8S-ITS4 regions of the 18S rRNA gene. The EPS production was investigated under stress conditions in culture flasks and a bioreactor. Different chromatographic (HPLC-RID, HPSEC-RID) and spectral (FT-IR) analyses were employed to characterize EPSs. Tremellomycetes sp. accumulated 7 g/L biomass and 4.5 g/L EPS after 120 h of cultivation. The total carbohydrate content of V-EPS and T-EPS was 75.4% and 79.0%, respectively. The EPSs mainly consisted of mannose (30–32%), which was followed by glucose, xylose, galactose, and small amounts of uronic acids (6.3–7.0%). EPSs had appreciable amounts of proteins (11–12%). The FT-IR spectra contained absorption bands typical for hetero-mannans and β-glucans (797–1033 cm−1). EPSs were heterogeneous with a broad molecular weight distribution range (47 × 104–68 × 104 g/mol). In conclusion, both yeasts synthesized high-molecular-weight heteromannans, and Tremellomycetes sp. stood out as being a better producer than V. victoriae. The current study also formed a basis for a better assessment of the potential for practical application of EPSs and yeasts in biochemical engineering and biotechnology.

Abstract
Biosurfactants are in demand by the global market as natural commodities that can be added to commercial products or use in environmental applications. These biomolecules reduce the surface/interfacial tension between fluid phases and exhibit superior stability to chemical surfactants under different physico-chemical conditions. Biotechnological production of biosurfactants is still emerging. Fungi are promising producers of these molecules with unique chemical structures, such as sophorolipids, mannosylerythritol lipids, cellobiose lipids, xylolipids, polyol lipids and hydrophobins. In this review, we aimed to contextualize concepts related to fungal biosurfactant production and its application in industry and the environment. Concepts related to the thermodynamic and physico-chemical properties of biosurfactants are presented, which allows detailed analysis of their structural and application. Promising niches for isolating biosurfactant-producing fungi are presented, as well as screening methodologies are discussed. Finally, strategies related to process parameters and variables, simultaneous production, process optimization through statistical and genetic tools, downstream processing and some aspects of commercial products formulations are presented.

Abstract
Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) is a widely used forage grass which shares a symbiosis with the endophytic fungus Epichloë coenophiala. The endophyte produces an alkaloid toxin that provides herbivory, heat and drought resistance to the grass, but can cause fescue toxicosis in grazing livestock. Fescue toxicosis can lead to reduced weight gain and milk yields resulting in significant losses to the livestock industry. The objective of this study was to identify bacterial and fungal communities associated with fescue toxicosis tolerance. In this trial, 149 Angus cows across two farms were continuously exposed to toxic, endophyte-infected, fescue for a total of 13 weeks. Of those 149 cows, 40 were classified into either high (HT) or low (LT) tolerance groups according to their growth performance (weight gain). 20 HT and 20 LT cattle balanced by farm were selected for amplicon sequencing to compare the fecal microbiota of the two tolerance groups. This study reveals significantly (q<0.05) different bacterial and fungal microbiota between HT and LT cattle, and indicates that fungal phylotypes may be important for an animal’s response to fescue toxicosis: We found that fungal phylotypes affiliating to the Neocallimastigaceae, which are known to be important fiber-degrading fungi, were consistently more abundant in the HT cattle. Whereas fungal phylotypes related to the genus Thelebolus were more abundant in the LT cattle. This study also found more pronounced shifts in the microbiota in animals receiving higher amounts of the toxin. We identified fungal phylotypes which were consistently more abundant either in HT or LT cattle and may thus be associated with the respective animal’s response to fescue toxicosis. Our results thus suggest that some fungal phylotypes might be involved in mitigating fescue toxicosis.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are ubiquitous biomolecules found in nature that contain various biological and pharmacological activities that are employed in functional foods and therapeutic agents. Natural polysaccharides are obtained mainly by extraction and purification, which may serve as reliable procedures to enhance the quality and the yield of polysaccharide products. Moreover, structural analysis of polysaccharides proves to be promising and crucial for elucidating structure–activity relationships. Therefore, this report summarizes the recent developments and applications in extraction, separation, purification, and structural analysis of polysaccharides of plants and fungi.

Abstract
Biopolymer produced from marine Athelia strain presented unique Pseudoplastic behaviors under extremely-high temperature and salinity conditions. Characteristic analysis with FT-IR spectroscopy, high performance liquid chromatography, 1H and 13C NMR and two-dimensional COSY and HMQC spectra showed the structure of β-(1-6) glucans. Single-factor and orthogonal experiment design were used to optimize the yield, the maximum yield of the biopolymer was 28.32 g/L with 56.64% carbon conversion rate under optimized conditions. Economic investigation demonstrated that this novel biopolymer has great potential of commercialization with the competitive cost of $2896.04-5228.94 per ton for powder. Resistance factor and residual resistance factor were evaluated with core flooding experiments showed that this biopolymer had excellent performance of plugging capacity and profile modification, and indicating the great potential of application on heavy oil recovery.

Oncol Lett 2018; 16:3577-3586. [PMID: 30127964 PMCID: PMC6096156 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2018.9129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2017] [Accepted: 07/04/2018] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
In the present study, the effects of exopolysaccharides (EPS) from nine Lactobacillus strains with a high degree of bio-activity on human colon cancer cell line HT-29 were studied. The extracellular polymeric substances from 4 strains, namely K11, M5, SB27 and ×12, displayed desirable anti-proliferative activity against HT-29 cells. Crude and acidic EPS were purified from the 4 strains and the inhibitory effects were further investigated. The crude and acidic EPS from these 4 strains exerted anti-proliferation effects on HT-29 cells in a dose-dependent manner but were nontoxic to Vero cells. Treatment with EPS significantly induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of HT-29 cells. Hoechst 33258 staining of acidic EPS-treated HT-29 cells revealed different degrees of morphological changes within the nucleus and the formation of apoptotic bodies. Caspase-3 activity was markedly upregulated in HT-29 cells following treatment with acidic EPS. In addition, acidic EPS from the SB27 strain demonstrated the most robust inhibitory effect on HT-29 cells. The results of the present study suggest that as an inducer of apoptosis EPS has the potential to be applied in the treatment of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Polar microbial derived antibiotics have potential as alternatives to traditional antibiotics in treating fish against pathogenic bacteria. In this paper, 23 strains of polar fungi were fermented to detect bacteriostatic products on three aquatic pathogenic bacteria, subsequently the active fungus was identified. It was indicated that secondary metabolites of 23 strains weredistinct; of these, the extract of strain B-7 (belonging to Bjerkandera according to molecular identification) demonstrated a strong antibacterial activity to Streptococcus agalactiae, Vibrio anguillarum and Aeromonas hydrophila ATCC7966 by Kirby-Bauerpaper strip method. During one fermentation cycle, the pH curve of the fermentation liquor became lowest (4.0) on the 4th day and rose back to 7.6 finally after 5 days, The residual sugar curve was decreased before stablising on the 6th day. It is presumed that a large amount of alkaline secondary metabolites might have been produced during fermentation. This study focuses on antagonism between aquatic pathogenic bacteria and fermentation metabolites from Antarctic fungi for the first time, which may provide data on research of antibiotics against aquatic pathogenic bacteria.
