Molecular response of bifidobacteria to a cholesterol rich environment

ABSTRACT: We investigated the capabilities of bifidobacteria to reduce the cholesterol level in the media, which clearly evidenced a high ratio of assimilation of this molecule by specific bifidobacterial strains including Bifidobacterium bifidum PRL2010. The transcriptomics of PRL2010 cells cultivated in the presence of cholesterol evidenced a significant higher expression of carriers as well as reductase encoding genes
