Lactiplantibacillus plantarum Attenuates Diet-Induced Obesity and Insulin Resistance Through Gut Microbiota-Driven PPAR/PI3K-Axis Modulation.

ABSTRACT: LPPerfectus001 (LPP; GDMCC 62334) is a strain isolated from traditional pickled vegetables and identified as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum by 16s rRNA sequencing and biochemical analysis. Whole-genome sequencing and functional prediction revealed that it is rich in carbohydrate metabolism and lipid metabolism genes, as well as short-chain fatty acid synthesis genes. Preliminary experiments on high-sugar and high-fat zebrafish showed that LPP has the potential to improve glucose and lipid metabolism. Subsequently, in a high-fat/high-fructose obese rat experiment, a 7-week intervention with LPP was conducted. Without altering energy intake, the high-dose LPP (LPPH) significantly reduced body weight and fat mass (p < 0.05), improved insulin sensitivity (reduced HOMA-IR and fasting blood gluco
