Abstract
IMPORTANCE The genome of the strain Ligilactobacillus salivarius IBB3154 was sequenced, and transcriptome analysis was carried out at two different temperatures, allowing the determination of gene expression levels in response to environmental changes (temperature). Genes with higher expression at 42°C were identified. The use of a reporter gene (β- glucuronidase) did not confirm the transcriptomic results; it was found that the promoters of the genes sasA1 and sasA2 were active in the presence of bile salts. This opens up new opportunities for the overexpression of genes of other bacterial species in Ligilactobacillus cells in the intestinal environment.

Abstract
The survival of probiotic microorganisms during their exposure to harsh environments plays a critical role in the fulfillment of their functional properties. In particular, transit through the human gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is considered one of the most challenging habitats that probiotics must endure, because of the particularly stressful conditions (e.g., oxygen level, pH variations, nutrient limitations, high osmolarity, oxidation, peristalsis) prevailing in the different sections of the GIT, which in turn can affect the growth, viability, physiological status, and functionality of microbial cells. Consequently, probiotics have developed a series of strategies, called "mechanisms of stress response," to protect themselves from these adverse conditions. Such mechanisms may include but are not limited to the induction of new metabolic pathways, formation/production of particular metabolites, and changes of transcription rates. It should be highlighted that some of such mechanisms can be conserved across several different strains or can be unique for specific genera. Hence, this review attempts to review the state-of-the-art knowledge of mechanisms of stress response displayed by potential probiotic strains during their transit through the GIT. In addition, evidence whether stress responses can compromise the biosafety of such strains is also discussed.

Abstract
Probiotic bacteria are known to have ability to tolerate inhospitable conditions experienced during food preparation, food storage, and gastrointestinal tract of consumer. As probiotics are living cells, they are adversely affected by the harsh environment of the carrier matrix as well as low pH, bile salts, oxidative stress, osmotic pressure, and commensal microflora of the host. To overcome the unfavorable environments, many probiotics switch on the cell-mediated protection mechanisms, which helps them to survive, acclimatize and remain operational in the harsh circumstances. In this review, we provide comprehensive understanding on the different stresses experienced by the probiotic when added in carrier food as well as during human gastrointestinal tract transit. Under such situation how these health beneficial bacteria protect themselves by activation of several defense systems and get adapted to the lethal environments.

Abstract
In this study, we compared the heat tolerance parameter (D65℃) values of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis PT 30 (S. Enteritidis ) heat adapted at different degrees (at 42 ℃ for 20-180 min) and cultivated using two methods. The treated group with the highest D65℃ value (LP-42 ℃-60 min) and the untreated groups (Control-TSB and Control-TSA) were subjected to transcriptome analysis. Heat-adaptation increased the D65℃ values of S. Enteritidis by 24.5-60.8%. The D65℃ values of the LP-42 ℃-60 min group (1.85 ± 0.13 min, 7.7% higher) was comparable to that of the Control-TSA. A total of 483 up- and 443 downregulated genes of S. enteritidis were identified in the LP-42 ℃-60 min group (log2fold change > 1, adjusted p-value < 0.05). Among these genes, 5 co-expressed and 15 differentially expressed genes in the LP-42 ℃-60 min and Control-TSA grops possibly contributed to the high D65℃ values of S. Enteritidis . The Rpo regulon was involved in the heat adaptation of S. Enteritidis , as evidenced by the significant upregulation of rpoS, rpoN, and rpoE. KEGG enrichment pathways, such as biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, tricarboxylic acid, and ribosomes were identified and mapped to reveal the molecular mechanisms of S. enteritidis during heat adaptation. This study quantified the enhanced heat tolerance of S. Enteritidis heat adapted at different degrees of heat-adaptation. The results of this study may serve as a basis for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying the enhanced heat tolerance at the transcriptome level.

Abstract
It has been found that 32 genes related to nitrogen source metabolism in Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus are downregulated under both heat stress and oxidative stress. In this study, the influence of different nitrogen sources within the growth medium on the tolerance of L. rhamnosus to heat stress and oxidative stress was investigated. Tryptone-free MRS was found to enhance the tolerance of L. rhamnosus hsryfm 1301 to heat stress and oxidative stress during the whole growth period, and this result was universal for all L. rhamnosus species analyzed. The strongest strengthening effect occurred when the OD600 value reached 2.0, at which the survival rates under heat stress and oxidative stress increased 130-fold and 40-fold, respectively. After supplementing phenylalanine, isoleucine, glutamate, valine, histidine, or tryptophan into the tryptone-free MRS, the tolerance of L. rhamnosus to heat stress and oxidative stress exhibited a sharp drop. The spray drying survival rate of L. rhamnosus hsryfm 1301 cultured in the tryptone-free MRS rose to 75% (from 30%), and the spray dried powder also performed better in the experimentally simulated gastrointestinal digestion. These results showed that decreasing the intake of amino acids is an important mechanism for L. rhamnosus to tolerate heat stress and oxidative stress. When L. rhamnosus is cultured for spray drying, the concentration of the nitrogen source's components should be an important consideration.

Abstract
In the gastrointestinal tract, some dietary carbohydrates, such as xylose, raffinose and arabinose, are able to stimulate the growth of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. In this study, the growth rate of Ligilactobacillus salivarius Ren in raffinose was 0.91 ± 0.03 h-1, which was higher than that in glucose (0.83 ± 0.01 h-1). However, limited information is available on specific transporters and glycoside hydrolases responsible for raffinose uptake and catabolism in L. salivarius. Transcriptomic analysis revealed the differential expression of 236 genes (∣log2FoldChange∣ > 0.8) in response to raffinose, which were mainly associated with raffinose transport, raffinose hydrolysis, galactose metabolism and pyruvate metabolism. Notably, gene rafP encoding lactose/raffinose permease was 101.86-fold up-regulated. Two α-galactosidase gene galA1 and galA2 were 117.82-fold and 2.66-fold up-regulated, respectively. To further investigate the role of these genes in raffinose utilization, insertional inactivation was performed using the pORI28-pTRK669 system. The growth assay of these mutants in modified MRS containing 2% (w/v) raffinose indicated that RafP played an important role in raffinose transport and GalA1 was the primary enzyme involved in raffinose hydrolysis. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the molecular mechanism of raffinose utilization in L. salivarius.

Abstract
Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris can survive pasteurization and is implicated in pasteurized fruit juice spoilage. However, the mechanisms underlying heat responses remain largely unknown. Herein, gene transcription changes of A. acidoterrestris under heat stress were detected by transcriptome, and an integrated analysis with proteomic and physiological data was conducted. A total of 911 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) was observed. The majority of DEGs and differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were exclusively regulated at the mRNA and protein level, respectively, whereas only 59 genes were regulated at both levels and had the same change trends. Comparative analysis of the functions of the specifically or commonly regulated DEGs and DEPs revealed that the heat resistance of A. acidoterrestris was primarily based on modulating peptidoglycan and fatty acid composition to maintain cell envelope integrity. Low energy consumption strategies were established with attenuated glycolysis, decreased ribosome de novo synthesis, and activated ribosome hibernation. Terminal oxidases, cytochrome bd and aa3, in aerobic respiratory chain were upregulated. Meanwhile, the MarR family transcriptional regulator was upregulated, reactive oxygen species (ROS) was discovered, and the concentration of superoxide dismutase (SOD) increased, indicating that the accompanied oxidative stress was induced by high temperature. Additionally, DNA and protein damage repair systems were activated. This study provided a global perspective on the response mechanisms of A. acidoterrestris to heat stress, with implications for better detection and control of its contamination in fruit juice.

Comparative Genomic Analysis Determines the Functional Genes Related to Bile Salt Resistance in Lactobacillus salivarius. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9102038.

Abstract
Lactobacillus salivarius has drawn attention because of its promising probiotic functions. Tolerance to the gastrointestinal tract condition is crucial for orally administrated probiotics to exert their functions. However, previous studies of L. salivarius have only focused on the bile salt resistance of particular strains, without uncovering the common molecular mechanisms of this species. Therefore, in this study, we expanded our research to 90 L. salivarius strains to explore their common functional genes for bile salt resistance. First, the survival rates of the 90 L. salivarius strains in 0.3% bile salt solutions were determined. Comparative genomics analysis was then performed to screen for the potential functional genes related to bile salt tolerance. Next, real-time polymerase chain reaction and gene knockout experiments were conducted to further verify the tolerance-related functional genes. The results indicated that the strain-dependent bile salt tolerance of L. salivarius was mainly associated with four peptidoglycan synthesis-related genes, seven phosphotransferase system-related genes, and one chaperone-encoding gene involved in the stress response. Among them, the GATase1-encoding gene showed the most significant association with bile salt tolerance. In addition, four genes related to DNA damage repair and substance transport were redundant in the strains with high bile salt tolerance. Besides, cluster analysis showed that bile salt hydrolases did not contribute to the bile salt tolerance of L. salivarius. In this study, we determined the global regulatory genes, including LSL_1568, LSL_1716 and LSL_1709, for bile salt tolerance in L. salivarius and provided a potential method for the rapid screening of bile salt-tolerant L. salivarius strains, based on PCR amplification of functional genes.
