Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of probiotics technology, specifically to a Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 strain with weight loss and lipid-lowering effects and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] Obesity is a disease state caused by long-term excessive energy intake leading to fat deposition, resulting in damage to the body's physiology, function, and structure. Obesity is generally considered to be characterized by overweight, gut microbiota dysbiosis, insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, abnormal distribution and accumulation of white adipose tissue, and fibrosis.

[0003] Obesity can lead to the development of various chronic non-infectious diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, seriously endangering public health. Currently, diet control, exercise, surgery, and drug treatment are the main means of preventing and treating obesity. However, factors such as the difficulty in maintaining diet control and exercise for long periods, concerns about the risks of surgery, and the serious side effects of chemically synthesized drugs result in low willingness and adherence to medical treatment among obese patients.

[0004] In 2001, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations defined probiotics as live bacteria that, when ingested in appropriate amounts, have a beneficial effect on the health of the consumer. In recent years, research on probiotics has found that probiotics and their products have many beneficial effects on the human body, such as regulating gastrointestinal health, inhibiting pathogenic microorganisms, enhancing immune response, and lowering serum cholesterol.

[0034] Experimental Example 1: Isolation of Lactobacillus sakei (LN-Ls1)

[0035] Measure 1 mL of Guangxi Deshengqing Baijiu and perform serial dilutions of the sample using sterile physiological saline. Select samples with appropriate dilution gradients and pour them into MRS agar medium containing bromocresol purple. Incubate at 37±1℃ for 36-48 h until single colonies grow.

The strain was deposited for preservation, and its preservation information is as follows: Accession number: CGMCC 30611 Classification and nomenclature: Lactobacillus sakei Lactobacillus sakei Preservation Institution: China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center, China Microbiological Culture Collection Committee Address: No. 3, Courtyard 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing Date of preservation: May 13, 2024.

[0039] The commercially available strains (Lactobacillus sakei LSa 20 and Lactobacillus sakei Probio 65) used in the following experiments were purchased.

[0040] The effects of Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 on body weight and lipid metabolism in obese mice.

[0041] Laboratory animals and grouping

[0042] Forty SPF-grade male C57BL / 6J mice, weighing 18-22g, were randomly divided into five groups according to body weight: normal group (NC), model group (MC), Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 group (LN-Ls1), Lactobacillus sakei LSa20 group (LSa20), and Lactobacillus sakei Probio 65 group (Probio 65), with eight mice in each group.

[0043] Animal feed formulations are based on the AIN-76 formula, and the specific components are shown in Table 1.

[0044] Table 1. Composition of experimental diets for each group of animals

[0045] The normal control group (NC) was fed a standard maintenance diet, while the other mice were fed a high-fat diet. The model was considered successfully established when the body weight of the remaining mice (excluding the normal control group) exceeded that of the normal control group by 20%. Simultaneously, each treatment group was administered the corresponding test substance by gavage.

[0046] The normal group was fed a basal diet and administered physiological saline by gavage.

[0047] The model group MC was fed a high-fat diet and administered physiological saline by gavage.

[0048] Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 group (LN-Ls1) was fed a high-fat diet and then administered 1g of the Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 bacterial powder of the present invention by gavage, with a viable count of 1×10⁻⁶. 10 CFU / g;

[0049] Lactobacillus sakei LSa20 group (LSa20) was fed a high-fat diet and administered 1g of Lactobacillus sakei LSa20 powder by gavage, with a live bacteria count of 1×10⁻⁶. 10 CFU / g;

[0050] Lactobacillus sakei Probio 65 group (Probio 65) was fed a high-fat diet and administered 1g of Lactobacillus sakei Probio 65 bacterial powder by gavage, with a live bacteria count of 1×10⁻⁶. 10 CFU / g.

[0051] Each group was administered the medication once daily via gavage for 8 consecutive weeks. During the experiment, the mice in each group were observed daily for coat color, food intake, activity level, and mental state.

[0052] At room temperature (23±2)℃, with a 12:12h light-dark cycle, after the last feeding, the animal was fasted but allowed to drink water for 10 hours. Blood was drawn from the eyeballs, resulting in death. The liver, kidneys, heart, perirenal adipose tissue, and upper testis adipose tissue were carefully dissected, weighed, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80℃ for later use.

[0053] Determination of serum biochemical indicators

[0054] The centrifuged and stored serum was tested for TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C levels according to the kit instructions.

[0055] Statistical analysis and graphing were performed using GraphPad Prism 8.0. The data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. (±s) indicates that one-way ANOVA was used for comparisons among multiple groups. P <0.05 is considered statistically significant.

[0056] Results and Discussion

[0057] Effects on food intake in obese mice

[0058] There was no significant difference in food intake between the model group and each intervention group, indicating that the intervention groups had no effect on the food intake of the mice. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0059] Table 2 Effects on food intake in obese mice

[0060] Effects on body weight and body fat mass in obese mice

[0061] After 8 weeks of high-fat diet feeding, compared with the normal group, the body weight and visceral adipose tissue weight of mice in the model group increased significantly, and the obesity model was successfully established. Compared with the model group, the body weight, inguinal fat, and epididymal fat index of mice in each intervention group were significantly reduced.

[0062] Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 was more effective than Lactobacillus sakei LSa20 and Lactobacillus sakei Probio 65 in reducing body weight, groin fat, and epididymal fat index. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0063] Table 3 Effects on food intake in obese mice

[0064] Note: Compared with NC, & P < 0.05 && P < 0.01; compared with MC, * P < 0.05 ** P < 0.01; compared with LN-Ls1, # P < 0.05 ## P < 0.01.

[0065] Effects on lipid metabolism parameters in obese mice

[0066] Compared with the normal group, the model group mice showed significantly increased levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and significantly decreased levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).

[0067] Compared with the model group, the levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in mice in the Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 group were significantly reduced, while the level of HDL-C was significantly increased.

[0068] Compared with Lactobacillus sakei LSa20 and Lactobacillus sakei Probio 65, the LN-Ls1 group showed better effects in reducing TC, TG, and LDL-C levels, and better effects in increasing HDL-C levels. Results are shown below. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 .

[0069] The Lactobacillus sakei LN-Ls1 of this invention significantly reduces weight, improves blood lipid levels, and improves lipid metabolism without affecting food intake, thus exhibiting significant weight loss and lipid-lowering effects. Compared with existing products, it achieves superior technical results.

[0070] The above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description, and any obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
