Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of probiotics, and more specifically relates to Lactococcus lactis F44 and its application in the preparation of anti-inflammatory drugs or fat-reducing drugs. Background Art

[0002] With the accelerated pace of modern life and changing dietary habits, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and a range of health issues caused by chronic inflammation are becoming increasingly prominent concerns. Inflammation is the body's natural defense against injury or infection, but when persistent or excessive, it can lead to a variety of chronic diseases. Furthermore, rising obesity rates worldwide not only impact individual quality of life but also place a significant burden on public health systems. Therefore, developing products that can effectively regulate inflammation and promote healthy fat loss is crucial.

[0003] Lactococcus lactis is an important species of lactic acid bacteria, widely used in the food fermentation industry. Studies have shown that L. lactis not only has strong acid resistance and tolerance to the gastrointestinal environment, but also produces a variety of biologically active metabolites, such as lactic acid, bacteriocins, and exopolysaccharides. These metabolites have significant effects on inhibiting pathogens, improving intestinal health, and enhancing immune function. Furthermore, L. lactis has been found to exert anti-inflammatory effects by regulating immune function, offering potential value for disease intervention and health maintenance.

[0004] The potential of Lactococcus lactis in intestinal health and immune regulation makes it an ideal microbial resource for the development of anti-inflammatory products. However, there are significant differences in the biological functions of different strains. Currently, there are no reports that Lactococcus lactis can be used for both anti-inflammatory and fat-reducing applications. Summary of the Invention

[0051] F44 high-yield nisin

[0052] 1. Fermentation process and sample processing

[0053] F44 was inoculated into a Lactococcus lactis seed liquid culture medium at a 1% inoculum size. After three consecutive passages, it was inoculated into a Lactococcus lactis fermentation medium at a 5% inoculum size. The culture was placed in a 30°C incubator for static culture. Every 2 hours, 600 μL of fermentation broth and 600 μL of 0.02 M HCl aqueous solution were collected, mixed, and added to a sterile 2 mL EP tube. The tube was placed in boiling water and boiled for 5 minutes for subsequent detection of nisin production.

[0054] 2. Detection of nisin titer by inhibition zone method

[0055] After thawing, 25 mL of nisin titer test medium was cooled to 70°C, preheated Tween-20 (final concentration: 1.5%) was added, and after cooling to 50°C, 6 mL of physiological saline was added to rinse the resulting culture medium containing Micrococcus flavus (ATCC 10240, purchased from Shanghai Yansheng Industrial Co., Ltd.). After mixing thoroughly, the culture medium was inverted and refrigerated at 4°C overnight. The test plate was evenly perforated, and standard samples (containing 200, 100, 50, and 25 IU / mL nisin) and the test sample were added. The plate was then placed in a 37°C incubator for overnight incubation. The diameter of the inhibition zone was accurately measured with a vernier caliper, and the nisin titer of the corresponding fermentation broth was calculated based on the standard curve.

[0056] 3. Results

[0115] Example 6 Effect of F44 on Acute Ulcerative Colitis in Mice

[0116] 1. Test method

[0117] (1) Establishment of an acute ulcerative colitis mouse model and F44 intervention

[0118] Male C57BL / 6J mice aged 6-8 weeks were randomly assigned to two groups of eight mice: the PBS group and the F44 group. Mice in the PBS group drank 2.5% sodium sulfate dextran (DSS, purchased from MP Biomedicals, catalog number: 0216011050) solution for days 1-3, 4% DSS solution for day 4, and 1.5% DSS solution for days 5-7. They were gavaged with 100 μL of PBS solution daily for 7 days. Mice in the F44 group drank 2.5% DSS solution for days 1-3, 4% DSS solution for day 4, and 1.5% DSS solution for days 5-7. They were gavaged with 100 μL of F44 bacterial solution daily for 7 days.

[0119] (2) Colon length measurement

[0120] After the experiment, the mice were killed by cervical dislocation, the colon was removed by dissection, and the length of the colon was measured and the data were recorded.

[0121] (3) Pathological analysis

[0122] The colon samples were washed twice with normal saline, immersed in 1 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde solution (purchased from Shanghai Yuanye Biotechnology Co., Ltd., product number: R20497), embedded in paraffin, sectioned, and stained with HE.

[0123] 2. Test results:

[0124] The results are as follows Figure 4 As shown in the figure, on the 7th day of the experiment, the colon length of the F44 group was 7.0 cm, which was significantly longer than the 5.9 cm of the PBS group, that is, F44 intervention had a certain protective effect on the colon intestinal tract of acute colitis.

[0125] The results are as follows Figure 5 As shown, HE staining of colonic tissue in the PBS group revealed severe intestinal structural abnormalities, with localized mucosal epithelial cell shedding, exposing the lamina propria. Crypts were significantly reduced in number and structure, with extensive inflammatory cell infiltration. HE staining of colonic tissue in the F44 group revealed moderate intestinal structural abnormalities, with tightly packed, non-shedding mucosal epithelial cells. Crypts were reduced in number and partially lost in structure, with only a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration. These findings suggest that the F44 group exhibited milder pathological changes in colonic inflammation, demonstrating a therapeutic effect against DSS-induced acute ulcerative colitis.

[0126] Example 7 Effect of F44 on Fat Content in Wild-Type Caenorhabditis elegans N2 (hereinafter referred to as Nematode)

[0127] 1. Synchronization of nematodes

[0128] Collect L4 nematodes into a centrifuge tube and add 1 mL of M9 buffer to wash away excess E. coli OP50. Let the tube settle, then remove the supernatant and repeat the wash three times. Then, add 1 mL of lysis buffer and shake thoroughly. Remove the supernatant and wash three times with M9 buffer by centrifugation (3000 rpm, 1 min). Remove the supernatant and retain the eggs. Transfer the eggs to fresh NGM solid medium and incubate in a 20°C biochemical incubator. After approximately 16-18 hours, they will grow into L1 larvae.

[0129] 2. Cultivation of Nematodes and Determination of Fat

[0130] F44 was cultured in a Lactococcus lactis seed liquid medium to the logarithmic phase, and Escherichia coli OP50 was cultured in a LB liquid medium to the logarithmic phase. The cells were centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C, and the F44 and Escherichia coli OP50 cells were collected as food. The cells were adjusted to the same OD value using M9 buffer. 600 Value (OD 600=0.5). Each time, 100 μL of the bacterial solution was plated onto a 60 mm NGM solid medium containing worm eggs and cultured in a 20°C biochemical incubator. The nematodes reached the L4 stage in approximately 3-4 days. A control group fed with Escherichia coli OP50 and an experimental group fed with Lactococcus lactis F44 were cultured for 3 days after reaching the L4 stage. After the nematodes reached the L4 stage, they were cultured with both bacterial solutions for another 3 days. Twenty nematodes were randomly selected and stained with Oil Red O to measure fat content. The nematodes were rinsed three times with M9 buffer, the throat was sealed with 25 mM levamisole hydrochloride, and 200 μL of 4% paraformaldehyde solution was added and allowed to stand for 20 minutes. The solution was then removed and the nematodes were frozen and thawed three times with liquid nitrogen. The nematodes were then stained with 60% isopropanol Oil Red O (10 ml of 60% isopropanol + 0.05 g of Oil Red O). After 5 hours, the excess dye was rinsed with M9 buffer and the staining was observed under a light microscope.

[0131] 2. Test results

[0132] Compared with the E. coli OP50 control group, the fat content of nematodes fed with F44 was significantly reduced ( Figure 6 Image J software was used to analyze the red light optical density of fat, and it was found that the red light optical density of nematode fat was significantly weakened after F44 interference, decreasing by 20.4% ( Figure 6 , p<0.05). This indicates that F44 significantly reduces fat deposition in nematodes, thereby affecting their fat metabolism.
