Ge M, Zhou S, Li D, Song D, Yang S, Xu M. Reduction of selenite to selenium nanoparticles by highly selenite-tolerant bacteria isolated from seleniferous soil. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 472:134491. [PMID: 38703686 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 04/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
The microbial reduction of selenite to elemental selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) is thought to be an effective detoxification process of selenite for many bacteria. In this study, Metasolibacillus sp. ES129 and Oceanobacillus sp. ES111 with high selenite reduction efficiency or tolerance were selected for systematic and comparative studies on their performance in selenite removal and valuable SeNPs recovery. The kinetic monitoring of selenite reduction showed that the highest transformation efficiency of selenite to SeNPs was achieved at a concentration of 4.24 mM for ES129 and 4.88 mM for ES111. Ultramicroscopic analysis suggested that the SeNPs produced by ES111 and ES129 had been formed in cytoplasm and subsequently released to extracellular space through cell lysis process. Furthermore, the transcriptome analysis indicated that the expression of genes involved in bacillithiol biosynthesis, selenocompound metabolism and proline metabolism were significantly up-regulated during selenite reduction, suggesting that the transformation of selenite to Se0 may involve multiple pathways. Besides, the up-regulation of genes associated with nucleotide excision repair and antioxidation-related enzymes may enhance the tolerance of bacteria to selenite. Generally, the exploration of selenite reduction and tolerance mechanisms of the highly selenite-tolerant bacteria is of great significance for the effective utilization of microorganisms for environmental remediation.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is caused by an imbalance between prooxidants and antioxidants, which is the cause of various chronic human diseases. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been considered as an effective antioxidant to alleviate oxidative stress in the host. To obtain bacterium resources with good antioxidant properties, in the present study, 113 LAB strains were isolated from 24 spontaneously fermented chili samples and screened by tolerance to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Among them, Lactobacillus plantarum GXL94 showed the best antioxidant characteristics and the in vitro antioxidant activities of this strain was evaluated extensively. The results showed that L. plantarum GXL94 can tolerate hydrogen peroxide up to 22 mM, and it could normally grow in MRS with 5 mM H2O2. Its fermentate (fermented supernatant, intact cell and cell-free extract) also had strong reducing capacities and various free radical scavenging capacities. Meanwhile, eight antioxidant-related genes were found to up-regulate with varying degrees under H2O2 challenge. Furthermore, we evaluated the probiotic properties by using in vitro assessment. It was showed that GXL94 could maintain a high survival rate at pH 2.5% or 2% bile salt or 8.0% NaCl, live through simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) to colonizing the GIT of host, and also show higher abilities of auto-aggregation and hydrophobicity. Additionally, the usual antibiotic susceptible profile and non-hemolytic activity indicated the safety of the strain. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that L. plantarum GXL94 could be a potential probiotic candidate for producing functional foods with antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Levilactobacillus brevis NPS-QW-145 isolated from kimchi is deficient in glutamate dehydrogenase-encoding gene (gdhA) to form glutamate, hence it required exogenous supplementation of glutamate/monosodium glutamate (MSG) for decarboxylation reaction to produce γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). However, GABA conversion rate from MSG was relatively low. The individual effect of 20 amino acids on regulating GABA biosynthesis was investigated. Cysteine was selected to significantly improve GABA production from MSG. It was found that Lb. brevis was capable of producing H2O2, cysteine protected Lb. brevis against H2O2-induced oxidative damage to increase cell viability for the enhancement of GABA production. Moreover, cysteine promoted glucose consumption to produce acetyl-CoA for synthesizing long-chain fatty acids to significantly up-regulate GABA biosynthesis. These findings deciphered antioxidative capability of cysteine in Lb. brevis 145 and provided a theoretical basis for fatty acids synthesis-mediated GABA synthesis in Lb. brevis 145, and possibly in other lactic acid bacteria.

Abstract
In the last decade, metagenomic studies have shown the key role of the gut microbiome in maintaining immune and neuroendocrine systems. Malfunction of the gut microbiome can induce inflammatory processes, oxidative stress, and cytokine storm. Dysfunction of the gut microbiome can be caused by short-term (virus infection and other infectious diseases) or long-term (environment, nutrition, and stress) factors. Here, we reviewed the inflammation and oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases and coronavirus infection (COVID-19). Here, we reviewed the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) involved in the processes of formation of oxidative stress and inflammation in viral and neurodegenerative diseases. Moreover, the coronavirus uses ACE2 receptors of the RAAS to penetrate human cells. The coronavirus infection can be the trigger for neurodegenerative diseases by dysfunction of the RAAS. Pharmabiotics, postbiotics, and next-generation probiotics, are considered as a means to prevent oxidative stress, inflammatory processes, neurodegenerative and viral diseases through gut microbiome regulation.

Abstract
Lactobacilli and bifidobacteria are an important part of human gut microbiota. Among numerous benefits, their antioxidant properties are attracting more and more attention. Multiple in vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated that lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, along with their cellular components, possess excellent antioxidant capacity, which provides a certain degree of protection to the human body against diseases associated with oxidative stress. Recently, lactobacilli and bifidobacteria have begun to be considered as a new source of natural antioxidants. This review summarizes the current state of research on various antioxidant properties of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. Special emphasis is given to the mechanisms of antioxidant activity of these bacteria in the human gut microbiota, which involve bacterial cell components and metabolites. This review is also dedicated to the genes involved in the antioxidant properties of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria strains as indicators of their antioxidant potential in human gut microbiota. Identification of the antioxidant biomarkers of the gut microbiota is of great importance both for creating diagnostic systems for assessing oxidative stress and for choosing strategies aimed at restoring the normal functioning of the microbiota and, through it, restoring human health. In this review, the practical application of probiotic strains with proven antioxidant properties to prevent oxidative stress is also considered.

Abstract
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an important non-protein amino acid with wide-ranging applications. Currently, GABA can be produced by a variety of methods, including chemical synthesis, plant enrichment, enzymatic methods, and microbial production. Among these methods, microbial production has gained increasing attention to meet the strict requirements of an additive in the fields of food, pharmaceutical, and livestock. In addition, renewable and abundant resources, such as glucose and lignocellulosic biomass can also be used for GABA microbial production under mild and environmentally friendly processing conditions. In this review, the applications, metabolic pathways and physiological functions of GABA in different microorganisms were firstly discussed. A comprehensive overview of the current status of process engineering strategies for enhanced GABA production, including fermentation optimization and whole-cell conversion from different feedstocks by various host strains is also provided. We also presented the state-of-the-art achievements in strain development strategies for industrial lactic acid bacteria (LAB), Corynebacterium glutamicum and Escherichia coli to enhance the performance of GABA bioproduction. In order to use bio-based GABA in the fields of food and pharmaceutical, some Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) strains such as LAB and C. glutamicum will be the promising chassis hosts. Toward the end of this review, current challenges and valuable research directions/strategies on the improvements of process and strain engineering for economic microbial production of GABA are also suggested.

Abstract
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is widely distributed in nature and considered a potent bioactive compound with numerous and important physiological functions, such as anti-hypertensive and antidepressant activities. There is an ever-growing demand for GABA production in recent years. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are one of the most important GABA producers because of their food-grade nature and potential of producing GABA-rich functional foods directly. In this paper, the GABA-producing LAB species, the biosynthesis pathway of GABA by LAB, and the research progress of glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), the key enzyme of GABA biosynthesis, were reviewed. Furthermore, GABA production enhancement strategies are reviewed, from optimization of culture conditions and genetic engineering to physiology-oriented engineering approaches and co-culture methods. The advances in both the molecular mechanisms of GABA biosynthesis and the technologies of synthetic biology and genetic engineering will promote GABA production of LAB to meet people’s demand for GABA. The aim of the review is to provide an insight of microbial engineering for improved production of GABA by LAB in the future.

Abstract
Background The glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) system of Lactobacillus brevis involves two isoforms of GAD, GadA and GadB, which catalyze the conversion of L-glutamate to γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in a proton-consuming reaction contributing to intracellular pH homeostasis. However, direct experimental evidence for detailed contributions of gad genes to acid tolerance and GABA production is lacking. Results Molecular analysis revealed that gadB is cotranscribed in tandem with upstream gadC, and that expression of gadCB is greatly upregulated in response to low ambient pH when cells enter the late exponential growth phase. In contrast, gadA is located away from the other gad genes, and its expression was consistently lower and not induced by mild acid treatment. Analysis of deletion mutations in the gad genes of L. brevis demonstrated a decrease in the level of GAD activity and a concomitant decrease in acid resistance in the order of wild-type> ΔgadA> ΔgadB> ΔgadC> ΔgadAB, indicating that the GAD activity mainly endowed by GadB rather than GadA is an indispensable step in the GadCB mediated acid resistance of this organism. Moreover, engineered strains with higher GAD activities were constructed by overexpressing key GAD system genes. With the proposed two-stage pH and temperature control fed-batch fermentation strategy, GABA production by the engineered strain L. brevis 9530: pNZ8148-gadBC continuously increased reaching a high level of 104.38 ± 3.47 g/L at 72 h. Conclusions This is the first report of the detailed contribution of gad genes to acid tolerance and GABA production in L. brevis. Enhanced production of GABA by engineered L. brevis was achieved, and the resulting GABA level was one of the highest among lactic acid bacterial species grown in batch or fed-batch culture.

Abstract
Background Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) plays a significant role in the food and drug industries. Our previous study established an efficient fed-batch fermentation process for Lactobacillus brevis NCL912 production of GABA from monosodium l-glutamate; however, monosodium l-glutamate may not be an ideal substrate, as it can result in the rapid increase of pH due to decarboxylation. Thus, in this study, l-glutamic acid was proposed as a substrate. To evaluate its potential, key components of the fermentation medium affecting GABA synthesis were re-screened and re-optimized to enhance GABA production from L. brevis NCL912. Results The initial fermentation medium (pH 3.3) used for optimization was: 50 g/L glucose, 25 g/L yeast extract, 10 mg/L manganese sulfate (MnSO4·H2O), 2 g/L Tween-80, and 220 g/L l-glutamic acid. Glucose, a nitrogen source, magnesium, and Tween-80 had notable effects on GABA production from the l-glutamic acid-based process; other factors showed no or marginal effects. The optimized levels of the four key components in the fermentation medium were 25 g/L glucose, 25 g/L yeast extract FM408, 25 mg/L MnSO4·H2O, and 2 g/L Tween-80. A simple and efficient fermentation process for the bioconversion of GABA by L. brevis NCL912 was subsequently developed in a 10 L fermenter as follows: fermentation medium, 5 L; glutamic acid, 295 g/L; inoculum, 10% (v/v); incubation temperature, 32 °C; and agitation, 100 rpm. After 48 h of fermentation, the final GABA concentration increased up to 205.8 ± 8.0 g/L. Conclusions l-Glutamic acid was superior to monosodium l-glutamate as a substrate in the bioproduction of GABA. Thus, a high efficacy bioprocess with 205 g/L GABA for L. brevis NCL912 was established. This strategy may provide an alternative for increasing the bioconversion of GABA.

Abstract
Antianxiety drugs currently in use are associated with a number of serious side effects. Present study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of anacardic acids (AAs) isolated from cashew nut (Anacardium occidentale L.) shell liquid (CNSL) to treat anxiety as well as its role in oxidative stress in mice model. Anxiolytic effect of AA was evaluated using rota-rod and a set of behavioral tests in male Swiss albino mice at the doses of 10, 25, and 50 mg/kg. Flumazenil was used to evaluate the possible involvement of GABAergic system in the mechanism of action of AA. The effect of AA on oxidative stress in mice was evaluated by determining the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione, and catalase (CAT) activity. The detection of DNA damage of the treated animals was performed using alkaline comet test in the hippocampus and frontal cortex of the animals. The results demonstrated that AA did not produce myorelaxant and sedative effects, nor did it cause a decrease in locomotor activity. The anxiolytic effect of AA was well-evident in all tests, especially at higher dose levels (25 and 50 mg/mg). Flumazenil reversed the anxiolytic effect of AA at all doses. In addition, AA reduced oxidative stress by decreasing the concentration of MDA and increasing the levels of reduced glutathione (GSH) and CAT activity. Statistical analysis by Pearson's correlation indicated a positive correlation between anxiolytic effect of AA to its antioxidant and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity. Furthermore, increased CAT activity and GSH concentrations in the hippocampus and frontal cortex of mice was also complementary to the reduced genotoxic damage observed in the study. In comet assay, AA did not increase in DNA damage. In conclusion, the results supported that AA possesses GABAA receptor mediated anxiolytic activity with the lack of myorelaxation and genotoxicity. © 2018 IUBMB Life, 70(5):420-431, 2018.

Abstract
Oxidative stress cause serious damages in human organism resulting in multiple diseases. Antioxidant therapy includes diet, the use of chemical agents or commensal bacteria such as lactobacilli. This study aims to evaluate the antioxidant (AO) activity of cell-free culture supernatants of lactobacilli, isolated from different parts of the human body. A test system based on Escherichia coli MG1655 strains carrying plasmids encoding luminescent biosensors pSoxS-lux and pKatG-lux inducible by superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide, respectively, was used to analyze cell-free culture supernatants of lactobacilli. Bioluminescent detection systems are suitable for quick screening of AO activity of lactobacilli. The majority of strains (51 out of 81) belonging to six different species demonstrated various levels of antioxidant activity. This activity was confirmed using the trolox equivalent method. The genome of one of the strains showing high AO activity was sequenced, and the genes putatively involved in AO capacity were determined. Potencies of standard AO and CFS from the most active Lactobacillus strains. Percentages of decrease in the detected luminescence (IAO%) in the presence of AO or CFS are presented.

Abstract
Lactobacillus brevis is an efficient cell factory for producing bioactive γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by its gad operon-encoded glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) system. However, little mechanistic insights have been reported on the effects of carbohydrate, oxygen and early acidification on GABA production machinery in Lb. brevis. In the present study, GABA production from Lb. brevis was enhanced by accessible carbohydrates. Fast growth of this organism was stimulated by maltose and xylose. However, its GABA production was highly suppressed by oxygen exposure, but was fully restored by anaerobiosis that up-regulated the expression of gad operon in Lb. brevis cells. Although the level of cytosolic acidity was suitable for the functioning of GadA and GadB, early acidification of the medium (ipH 5 and ipH 4) restored GABA synthesis strictly in aerated cells of Lb. brevis because the expression of gad operon was not up-regulated in them. We conclude that GABA production machinery in Lb. brevis could be restored by accessible carbohydrates, anaerobiosis and early acidification. This will be of interest for controlling fermentation for synthesis of GABA and manufacturing GABA-rich fermented vegetables.
