AbstractLactic acid bacteria (LAB) are most generally used as probiotics and some strains of LAB are known to have anti-inflammatory effects. A specific strain of lactic acid bacteria, Lactobacillus paracasei KW3110 (KW3110), activates macrophages to produce interleukin-10 (IL-10), an anti-inflammatory cytokine; however, the biological mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we showed that the amount of incorporated KW3110 into a macrophage cell line, RAW 264.7, was higher than other genetically related strains using fluorescence microscopy. RNA-seq analysis indicated that treatment of macrophages with KW3110 induced Dectin-2 gene expression, which is a pattern recognition receptor, recognizing α-mannose. In addition, antibody treatment and knock down of Dectin-2, or factors downstream in the signaling pathway, decreased the amount of incorporated KW3110 and IL-10 production. Substantial lectin array analysis also revealed that KW3110 had higher binding affinities to lectins, which recognize the carbohydrate chains comprised of α-mannose, than two other LAB. In conclusion, KW3110 is readily incorporated into macrophages, leading to IL-10 production. Dectin-2 mediated the phagocytosis of KW3110 into macrophages and this may be involved with the characteristic carbohydrate chains of KW3110.

Probiotics are live microorganisms which when consumed in large number together with a food promote the health of the consumer. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro probiotic properties of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from traditional Ethiopian fermented Teff injera dough, Ergo, and Kocho products. A total of 90 LAB were isolated, of which 4 (4.44%) isolates showed 45.35–97.11% and 38.40–90.49% survival rates at pH values (2, 2.5, and 3) for 3 and 6 h, in that order. The four acid-tolerant isolates were found tolerant to 0.3% bile salt for 24 h with 91.37 to 97.22% rate of survival. The acid-and-bile salt-tolerant LAB isolates were found inhibiting some food-borne test pathogenic bacteria to varying degrees. All acid-and-bile-tolerant isolates displayed varying sensitivity to different antibiotics. The in vitro adherence to stainless steel plates of the 4 screened probiotic LAB isolates were ranged from 32.75 to 36.30% adhesion rate. The four efficient probiotic LAB isolates that belonged to Lactobacillus species were identified to the strain level using 16S rDNA gene sequence comparisons and, namely, were Lactobacillus plantarum strain CIP 103151, Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. tolerans strain NBRC 15906, Lactobacillus paracasei strain NBRC 15889, and Lactobacillus plantarum strain JCM 1149. The four Lactobacillus strains were found to be potentially useful to produce probiotic products.

“Nostrano-cheeses” are traditional alpine cheeses made from raw cow’s milk in Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy. This study identified lactic acid bacteria (LAB) developing during maturation of “Nostrano-cheeses” and evaluated their potential to produceγ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an immunologically active compound and neurotransmitter. Cheese samples were collected on six cheese-making days, in three dairy factories located in different areas of Trentino and at different stages of cheese ripening (24 h, 15 days, and 1, 2, 3, 6, and 8 months). A total of 1,059 LAB isolates were screened using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA-PCR (RAPD-PCR) and differentiated into 583 clusters. LAB strains from dominant clusters (n=97) were genetically identified to species level by partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing. LAB species most frequently isolated wereLactobacillus paracasei,Streptococcus thermophilus, andLeuconostoc mesenteroides. The 97 dominant clusters were also characterized for their ability in producing GABA by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). About 71% of the dominant bacteria clusters evolving during cheeses ripening were able to produce GABA. Most GABA producers wereLactobacillus paracaseibut other GABA producing species includedLactococcus lactis,Lactobacillus plantarum,Lactobacillus rhamnosus,Pediococcus pentosaceus, andStreptococcus thermophilus. NoEnterococcus faecalisorSc. macedonicusisolates produced GABA. The isolate producing the highest amount of GABA (80.0±2.7 mg/kg) was aSc. thermophilus.

Diverse Lactobacillus strains are widely used as probiotic cultures in the dairy and dietary supplements industries, and specific strains such as Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM have been engineered for the development of biotherapeutics. To expand the Lactobacillus manipulation toolbox with enhanced efficiency and ease, we present here a CRISPR-SpyCas9D10A nickase (Cas9N)-based system for programmable engineering of L. acidophilus NCFM, a model probiotic bacterium. Successful single-plasmid delivery system was achieved with the engineered pLbCas9N vector harboring cas9N under the regulation of a Lactobacillus promoter and a cloning region for customized sgRNA and editing template. The functionality of the pLbCas9N system was validated in NCFM with targeted chromosomal deletions ranging between 300 bp and 1.9 kb at various loci (rafE, lacS and ltaS), yielding 35-100% mutant recovery rates. Genome analysis of the mutants confirmed precision and specificity of the pLbCas9N system. To showcase the versatility of this system, we also inserted a mCherry fluorescent protein gene downstream of the pgm gene to create a polycistronic transcript. The pLbCas9N system was further deployed in other species to generate concurrent single base substitution and gene deletion in Lactobacillus gasseri ATCC 33323, and an in-frame gene deletion in Lactobacillus paracasei Lpc-37, highlighting the portability of the system in phylogenetically distant Lactobacillus species, where its targeting activity was not interfered by endogenous CRISPR-Cas systems. Collectively, these editing outcomes illustrate the robustness and versatility of the pLbCas9N system for genome manipulations in diverse lactobacilli, and open new avenues for the engineering of health-promoting lactic acid bacteria. Importance This work describes the development of a broad-host range CRISPR-based editing system for genome manipulations in three Lactobacillus species, which belong to lactic acid bacteria (LAB) commonly known for their long history of use in food fermentations and as indigenous members of healthy microbiota, and their emerging roles in human and animal commercial health-promoting applications.  We exploited the established CRISPR-SpyCas9 nickase for flexible and precise genome editing applications in Lactobacillus acidophilus, and further demonstrated the efficacy of this universal system in two distantly related Lactobacillus species.  This versatile Cas9-based system facilitates genome engineering compared to conventional gene replacement systems, and represents a valuable gene editing modality in species that do not possess native CRISPR-Cas systems.  Overall, this portable tool contributes to expanding the genome editing toolbox of LAB for studying their health-promoting mechanisms and engineering of these beneficial microbes as next-generation vaccines and designer probiotics.
