Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of microbial and fermentation product technology, particularly to the field of C12N1 / 20 bacteria and fermentation products or A61P biopharmaceuticals, specifically to the application of Akkermansia myxophilus YG2645 or compositions thereof in the preparation of life-extending products. Background Technology

[0002] Anti-aging is an eternal topic of human pursuit. As we age, the body gradually experiences functional decline, accompanied by increased oxidative stress, metabolic disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases, among other physiological changes. These processes collectively drive the aging process. Most anti-aging products currently on the market target only a single mechanism, such as anti-oxidation, gut health regulation, or sleep enhancement, making it difficult to comprehensively address the complex aging process mediated by multiple factors including metabolic disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, existing drug-based anti-aging methods (such as metformin) are not primarily indicated for anti-aging purposes, and long-term or unauthorized use may pose potential risks.

[0003] Current technologies lack the means to comprehensively address the complex aging process mediated by multiple factors such as metabolic disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Summary of the Invention

The activated strains were further inoculated into modified BHI liquid medium for expansion culture. After cell collection, the cells were heat-treated at 70℃ for 30 minutes to obtain pasteurized inactivated bacterial cultures.

[0043] (3) Escherichia coli OP50 ( E. coli Cultivation of OP5 E. coli OP50 (Sunybiotech, Fujian) After thawing, the cells were inoculated onto LB solid medium for activation, then transferred to LB liquid medium and cultured at 37°C in a shaker at 150 rpm / min for 16 hours. The cells were collected, washed three times with M9 buffer, and finally concentrated to 1×10¹. 0 CFU / mL, stored at 4℃ for later use as a regular feed for nematodes.

[0044] (4) Preparation of bacterial culture dishes for culturing Caenorhabditis elegans The live Bifidobacterium lactis (YG2013, YG4617, and YG8091) and the pasteurized Akkermansia myxophilus (YG1033, AKK2645, and YG3611) from steps (1) and (2) above were washed three times with M9 buffer. Single or mixed cultures (with a 1:1 ratio of live Bifidobacterium lactis (CFU) to inactivated Akkermansia myxophilus (TFU)) were then washed with 1×10¹⁰ buffer. 0 Resuspend E. coli culture at CFU / mL to achieve a single cell concentration of 1×10¹ 0 TFU / mL or 1×10¹ 0 CFU / mL, so that the concentration of each single cell in the mixed bacterial cell reaches 5×10. 9 TFU / mL or 5×10 9 CFU / mL. Place 100 μL of the intervention bacterial suspension or mixed bacterial suspension in the center of NGM solid medium, dry in a biosafety cabinet, and incubate overnight at 20°C to obtain the plates for each intervention group. (Direct addition...) E. coliThe OP50 suspension is a Con group plate.

[0045] In the case of grouping single or mixed bacterial cells: Blank control group (Con group); YG2013 live bacteria group (2013 group), YG8091 live bacteria group (8091 group), YG4617 live bacteria group (4617 group), YG1033 inactivated bacteria group (1033 group), AKK2645 inactivated bacteria group (2645 group), YG3611 inactivated bacteria group (3611 group), YG2013 live bacteria + YG1033 inactivated bacteria group (2013 + 1017 group). Group 33, Mix 1 (mixed bacterial culture), YG2013 live bacteria + AKK2645 inactivated bacteria group (2013+2645 group, Mix 2 group, mixed bacterial culture), YG8091 live bacteria + YG1033 inactivated bacteria group (8091+1033 group, Mix 3 group, mixed bacterial culture), and YG8091+AKK2645 inactivated bacteria group (8091+2645 group, Mix 4 group, mixed bacterial culture).

[0046] Test Example 1 (1) Synchronization of Caenorhabditis elegans N2 After washing the culture dish containing a large number of oviposition-stage adults with M9 buffer, the nematodes were collected into 15 mL centrifuge tubes and allowed to settle naturally for 5 min. The tubes were then centrifuged at 1,500 rpm for 1 min to remove the supernatant. Lysis buffer (a mixture of 5M sodium hydroxide solution, 5% sodium hypochlorite solution, and M9 buffer at a volume ratio of 1:2:7) was added for 5 min of lysis. The tubes were then centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 2 min, and the supernatant and adult fragments were discarded. The eggs were collected, washed five times with an equal volume of M9 buffer, and then transferred to NGM solid medium containing OP50. After incubation at 20°C for 56 h, the eggs matured into L4 stage larvae, which were used for subsequent experiments.

[0047] (2) Determination of nematode lifespan The L4 stage larvae synchronized in step (1) were transferred to NGM solid culture medium inoculated with OP50 and corresponding intervention substances as in Example 3, and simultaneously inoculated in equal amounts until only the medium was coated with... E. coli OP50 NGM medium served as a blank control (Con group). All lifespan experiments were conducted at 20°C. The lifespan determination began at day T0, with nematodes synchronized to stage L4. They were then transferred to fresh culture dishes every two days until all individuals died. Three plates were used for each lifespan experiment, totaling 90 nematodes (30 per plate). The number of dead nematodes was recorded daily; individuals unresponsive to mechanical stimulation were considered dead. The lifespans of nematodes under different treatment conditions were statistically analyzed, and survival curves were plotted.

[0048] This experiment first investigated the effects of different single-agent bacterial agents: YG2013 live bacteria group (2013 group), YG8091 live bacteria group (8091 group), YG4617 live bacteria group (4617 group), YG1033 inactivated bacteria group (1033 group), AKK2645 inactivated bacteria group (2645 group), and YG3611 inactivated bacteria group (3611 group) (with a live bacterial cell concentration of 1×10⁻⁶). 10 CFU / mL, inactivated bacterial cell concentration is 1×10⁻⁶ 10 The effect of TFU / mL on nematode lifespan, the results are as follows: Figure 1 The results showed that, compared with the control group (Con group) fed only with *E. coli*, the live *Bifidobacterium lactis* YG2013 (mean lifespan increased by 14.2% compared to the control group) and YG8091 (mean lifespan increased by 10.9% compared to the control group), and the inactivated *Ackermannii myxotroph* YG1033 (mean lifespan increased by 12.2% compared to the control group) and AKK2645 (mean lifespan increased by 12.9% compared to the control group) groups significantly prolonged the lifespan of *N. 2* nematodes. However, *Bifidobacterium lactis* YG4617 and *Ackermannii myxotroph* YG3611 did not significantly prolong the lifespan of nematodes. In other words, the ability of *Bifidobacterium lactis* and *Ackermannii myxotroph* to delay natural aging in nematodes is strain-specific.

[0049] To further investigate the effects of pairwise combinations of *Bifidobacterium lactis* YG2013 and YG8091 with *Ackermania pseudomallei* YG1033 and AKK2645, *Ackermania pseudomallei* and *Bifidobacterium lactis* were mixed at a 1:1 ratio and divided into four groups (Mix1, Mix2, Mix3, and Mix4). Survival curves were plotted, and the results are as follows: Figure 2 The results showed that, compared with the single-strain intervention groups (2013, 8091, 1033 and 2645 groups), only the Mix2 group showed a further statistically significant improvement in the mean lifespan of nematodes (p<0.05).

[0050] Simultaneously, the reproductive capacity, heat stress resistance, and lipofuscin accumulation of single and mixed bacterial agents of Bifidobacterium lactis YG2013, YG8091, and Akkermansia myxophilus YG1033 and AKK2645 were determined. (3) Determination of nematode reproductive capacity The L4 stage larvae synchronized in step (1) were transferred to NGM culture media inoculated with OP50+ intervention. Simultaneously, an equal amount was inoculated onto NGM culture media coated only with OP50 as a blank control (Con group). Five plates were used per group, with two nematodes per plate. The nematodes on each plate were transferred to new plates daily, and the old plates were incubated at 20 ℃ for 48 h. Oviposition was then recorded daily until the nematodes ceased oviposition, and the total number of ovipositions was tallied. Results are as follows: Figure 2 C in the middle.

[0051] (4) Determination of nematode heat stress resistance The L4 stage larvae synchronized in step (1) were transferred to NGM culture media inoculated with OP50+ intervention, and inoculated in equal amounts until only the surface was coated with the intervention material. E. coli OP50 NGM medium was used as a blank control (Con group) and cultured in a constant temperature incubator at 20 ℃. The plates were changed daily. On the 5th day of sample intervention, nematodes were picked and transferred to new corresponding NGM plates, 20 nematodes / plate, with three replicates per group. The plates were then placed in a 34 ℃ incubator, and the number of surviving nematodes was recorded after 48 hours of incubation at 34 ℃. The results are as follows: Figure 2 D in the middle.

[0052] (5) Assay for lipofuscin accumulation in nematodes The L4 stage larvae synchronized in step (1) were transferred to NGM culture media inoculated with OP50+ intervention. Simultaneously, an equal amount was inoculated onto NGM culture media coated only with OP50 as a blank control (Con group). The media were incubated at 20 ℃, with the plates changed daily. On the 8th day of the intervention, 30 nematodes from each group were picked, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde solution, transferred to 3% agarose slides, and observed and imaged using a fluorescence microscope. The fluorescence intensity was statistically analyzed using ImageJ software. The results are as follows: Figure 2 B in the middle.

[0053] Figure 2Results A, B, C, and D indicate that, compared to the control group (Con group) fed only with *E. coli*, all four single-strain intervention groups significantly prolonged the average lifespan of nematodes while improving several key lifespan-related indicators, including reducing lipofuscin accumulation, increasing egg production, and enhancing heat stress resistance. These results demonstrate that live bacteria YG2013 and YG8091, along with inactivated bacteria YG1033 and AKK2645, can extend lifespan and delay natural aging by enhancing antioxidant and heat stress resistance without negatively impacting reproductive capacity. Compared to the single-strain intervention groups (2013, 8091, 1033, and 2645 groups), only the Mix2 group showed further statistically significant improvements in nematode average lifespan, lipofuscin accumulation, egg production, and heat stress resistance. p <0.05). This indicates that live bacteria YG2013 and inactivated bacteria AKK2645 have a synergistic effect in delaying natural aging and prolonging lifespan, and this effect is strain-specific.

[0054] Test Example 2: AKK2645 and its combined bacterial agents prolonged the lifespan of *C. elegans* N2 in an insulin resistance model. This experiment used the Caenorhabditis elegans N2 strain, which was purchased from the official website of CGC (Caenorhabditis Genetics Center) in the United States.

[0055] (1) Determination of nematode lifespan Nematode larvae synchronized to the L4 stage were transferred to NGM solid medium fed with OP50 (Con group), NGM solid medium containing 2% glucose fed with OP50 (Glu group), and NGM solid medium containing 2% glucose fed with OP50 and corresponding interventions (2013 group, 2645 group, and Mix AE group) respectively (the amount of food and intervention added to each group is shown in Table 1), and cultured in a constant temperature incubator at 20℃. During the experiment, the medium was replaced with fresh medium every two days, and the number of nematode deaths was recorded daily until all individuals died. Finally, the lifespan data of nematodes under different treatment conditions were statistically analyzed, and their survival curves were plotted, as shown in Table 1. Figure 3 As shown in A in the diagram.

[0056] Table 1. Amounts of food and intervention added to each group in the insulin resistance model ; (2) Oil Red O staining of nematodes (lipid content) L4 stage larvae were transferred to NGM medium containing the interventions shown in Table 1 and cultured for 3 days. Nematodes from each group were collected, washed three times with M9-T buffer containing 0.1% Triton X-100, and then fixed with 60% isopropanol solution for 5 minutes. After removing the supernatant, Oil Red O staining solution was added, and staining was performed at room temperature in the dark for 1 hour. After staining, the nematodes were washed five times with PBS buffer, transferred to a glass slide, and imaged using an inverted microscope in bright field. The staining results were then quantitatively and statistically analyzed using ImageJ software. Figure 3 As shown in B in the diagram.

[0058] (3) Determination of lipofuscin in nematodes The L4-stage larvae synchronized in step (1) of Test Example 1 were transferred to NGM culture media containing the interventions shown in Table 1 for each group, with the culture medium changed every two days. On day 8 of the intervention, 30 nematodes were picked from each group, washed with M9 buffer, and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde solution. The fixed nematodes were then transferred to slides coated with 3% agarose, and autofluorescence images were observed and acquired using a fluorescence microscope. The fluorescence intensity of lipofuscin in the images was quantitatively statistically analyzed using ImageJ software, and the results are as follows: Figure 3 C in the middle.

[0059] Figure 3 Figures A, B, and C indicate that, compared to the control group (Con group), the glucose-treated (Glu) nematodes exhibited significantly shorter lifespans, increased lipid content, and increased lipofuscin accumulation, indicating the successful establishment of the insulin resistance model. Under various probiotic intervention conditions, the shortened lifespan, increased lipid content, and lipofuscin accumulation in the model nematodes were all alleviated to varying degrees, demonstrating that both live bacteria YG2013 and inactivated bacteria AKK2645 can prolong the lifespan of nematodes under insulin resistance. Furthermore, compared to the single-strain treatment groups (2013 group or 2645 group), Mix B, Mix C, and Mix D in the mixed groups showed stronger improving effects in prolonging lifespan, reducing lipofuscin accumulation, and decreasing lipid accumulation, with Mix C showing the most significant effect. These results indicate that within the range of 1:4 to 4:1 ratio of live bacteria YG2013 to inactivated bacteria AKK2645, the two have a synergistic effect in prolonging the lifespan of nematodes under insulin resistance, with the optimal effect observed at a 1:1 ratio.

[0060] Example 3: AKK2645 and its composition prolong the lifespan of *Caenorhabditis elegans* in an AD model (Alzheimer's disease model). Experimental animals: The transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans strains CL4176 and CL2006 (two different AD models) were used in this experiment and were purchased from the official website of CGC (Caenorhabditis Genetics Center) in the United States.

[0061] (1) Synchronization treatment of Caenorhabditis elegans CL4176 and CL2006 Take a culture dish with a high concentration of adult nematodes in the oviposition stage, rinse with M9 buffer, collect the nematodes into a 15 mL centrifuge tube, let it stand for 5 min to allow it to settle naturally, then centrifuge at 1,500 rpm for 1 min, discard the supernatant, and retain about 1 mL of liquid. Add lysis buffer (prepared by mixing 5 M sodium hydroxide solution, 5% sodium hypochlorite solution, and M9 buffer at a volume ratio of 1:2:7), lyse for 5 min, then centrifuge at 5,000 rpm for 2 min, discard the supernatant and adult fragments, and collect the eggs. Wash the eggs five times with an equal volume of M9 buffer, and finally transfer the eggs to NGM medium and incubate them in a 16℃ biochemical incubator for 36 h and 72 h, respectively, to obtain L1 and L4 stage larvae for subsequent experiments.

[0062] (2) Lifespan determination of nematode CL2006 CL2006 nematodes synchronized to stage L4 were transferred to NGM medium containing or without live YG2013 bacteria, inactivated AKK2645 bacteria, or their combinations (food and intervention amounts for each group are shown in Table 2). Lifespan experiments were conducted at 25°C. Starting with L4 nematodes as day 0, the medium was replaced with fresh medium every two days until all nematodes died. A total of 90 nematodes (30 per dish) were used in three culture dishes. The number of dead nematodes was recorded daily; those unresponsive to mechanical stimulation were considered dead. Finally, the lifespan data of nematodes under each treatment condition were statistically analyzed, and survival curves were plotted. The results are shown in Table 2. Figure 4 A in the middle.

[0063] Table 2. Food and intervention amounts in each group of the CL2006 AD model of Nematode ; (3) Detection of paralysis rate of nematode CL4176 CL4176 nematodes synchronized to the L1 stage were inoculated onto solid NGM medium with the combinations shown in Table 3. After incubation at 16°C for 36 h, the temperature was raised to 25°C to induce Aβ protein expression in muscle cells. Abnormal Aβ aggregation led to motor dysfunction in CL4176 nematodes, manifesting as progressive paralysis, thus establishing a nematode model of Alzheimer's disease. The experiment was conducted in triplicate, with approximately 30 nematodes per replicate. Starting 36 h after raising the temperature to 25°C, the number of paralyzed individuals in the entire nematode population was observed and recorded every 2 h until all nematodes exhibited the paralyzed phenotype. The results are shown in Table 3. Figure 4 B in the middle.

[0065] Table 3. Food and intervention amounts in each group of the CL4176 AD model of Nematode ; Figure 4 Results A and B in the study showed that, compared with the model group, both groups 2013 and 2645 prolonged the lifespan of nematode CL2006 and increased the non-paralysis rate of nematode CL4176 to varying degrees, indicating that both live bacteria YG2013 and inactivated bacteria AKK2645 have the effect of increasing the lifespan of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, compared with single strains, the Mix BD group further prolonged the lifespan of nematodes and reduced the paralysis rate, suggesting that the ratio of live bacteria YG2013 to inactivated bacteria AKK2645 within the range of 1:4 to 4:1 has a synergistic effect in prolonging lifespan in Alzheimer's disease, with the best effect observed when the bacterial count of live YG2013 and inactivated AKK2645 is 1:1.

[0067] This invention utilizes the complementary mechanism of Akkermansia muciniphila (AKK) and Bifidobacterium lactis, especially Bifidobacterium lactis 2013 and Akkermansia muciniphila 2645, which exhibit synergistic anti-aging effects in multiple scenarios. It can delay natural aging and extend lifespan by enhancing antioxidant and heat stress capabilities without negatively impacting reproductive capacity. It can also extend lifespan in insulin resistance and Alzheimer's disease states, demonstrating the advantages of multi-pathway and systemic intervention.

[0068] The bacterial strains selected in this invention (Ackermania myxophila and Bifidobacterium lactis) are both native to the human intestinal flora, with good biocompatibility and high safety; among them, AKK bacteria are inactivated, which further avoids the potential risks of live bacteria and is more suitable for long-term use.
