Project description:Microbial fermentation is involved in the processing of a dark tea popular for centuries in Northwest China which has shown many health benefits. This study will examine anti-obesity, hyperlipidemic and hyperglycemic effects of CGMCC No.8730 Eurotium cristatum (EC) fermented dark tea (8730DT).

Project description:Pu-erh tea has attracted increasing attention worldwide because of its special flavor and health effects, but its impact on composition and function of the gut microbiota remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of aqueous extracts of fermented (ripe) and non-fermented (raw) Pu-erh teas on the composition and function of intestinal microbiota of rats with diet-induced obesity. We conducted a comparative metagenomic and metaproteomic investigation of the microbial communities in cecal samples taken from obese rats administrated with or without extracts of raw and ripe Pu-erh tea. By analyzing the composition and diversity of 16S rRNA amplicons and expression profiles of 814 distinct proteins, we found that, despite differences in the chemical compositions of the raw and ripe Pu-erh tea, administration of either at two different doses (0.15 and 0.40 g/Kg body weight), significantly (P<0.05) increased community diversity, and changed the composition of the cecal microbiota by increasing the relative abundances of Firmicutes and decreasing those of Bacteroidetes. Community metabolic processes including sucrose metabolism, glycolysis, syntheses of proteins, rRNA and antibiotics were significantly (P<0.05), or had a tendency (0.10<P<0.05) to be, promoted by enriching relevant enzymes. Furthermore, evidences from population, molecular and metabolic levels have shown that polyphenols of raw Pu-erh tea and their metabolites can promote potentially the growth of Akkermansia municiphila by stimulating the type II and III secretion system protein, elongation factor Tu, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This study has provided new evidences for the prebiotic effects of Pu-erh tea.

Project description:Kombucha Tea (KT), a fermented tea with roots in traditional Chinese medicine, has surged in worldwide popularity due to its purported health benefits. KT contains a symbiotic culture of yeast and bacterial species, many of which are considered human probiotics. The molecular basis of the health benefits of KT has yet to be thoroughly explored in any animal model. We establishC. elegansas a model to query the molecular interactions between Kombucha-associated microbes (KTM) and the host. We find that worms have an established gut microbiome after consuming a KTM-exclusive diet that mirrors the microbial community found in the fermenting culture. Remarkably, animals consuming KTMs display strikingly reduced lipid levels, yet develop and reproduce similarly toE. coli-fed animals. Critically, consumption of a non-fermenting mix of KT microbial isolates (Kombucha microbe mix) resulted in elevated fat accumulation, suggesting that KTMs do not impair nutrient absorption. To identify the host metabolic pathways altered by KTMs, we performed mRNA-seq on KTM-fed animals, finding widespread changes in lipid metabolism genes. Specifically, we found that three lysosomal lipase genes are significantly upregulated in these animals. These lipases, LIPL-1-3, have been previously shown to promote lipophagy via catabolism of lipid droplets. Consistently, KTM-fed animals display reduced levels of triglycerides and smaller lipid droplet sizes. We propose that KTM-fed animals exhibit a fasting-like metabolic state, even in the presence of sufficient nutrient availability, possibly through induction of lipophagy. Elucidating the host metabolic response to KT consumption will provide unprecedented insight into how this popular fermented beverage may impact human health and inform its use in complementary healthcare plans.

Project description:We investigated the effects of cholesterol on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in diethylnitrosamine-injected mice fed high-fat high-cholesterol (HFHC) diet versus high-fat (HF) alone. mRNA microarray analysis was applied for expressional aberrations.

Project description:From a long time ago, supplementation of fermented enzyme foods could have worked health effects on the body in the east nevertheless, only a few studies reported functions of them such as weight loss and metabolic syndrome. Thus, it is necessary to be verified whether supplementation of fermented enzyme foods can act in the body as a functional material. Therefore, we investigated the anti-obesity effects of fermented mixed grain with digestive enzymes (FMG) in high-fat diet induced mice. Sixty C57BL/6J mice were divided into six dietary groups and fed a normal diet (ND), a high-fat diet (HFD), Bacilus Coagulans group, steamed grain group, low-dose fermented mixed grain group(L-FMG), high-dose fermented mixed grain group (H-FMG) supplement for 12 weeks. After sacrificing, body weight and body fat mass in H-FMG group were significantly decreased compared to HFD group with a simultaneous decrease in plasma lipids. Also, H-FMG significantly decreased the blood glucose and improved the glucose tolerance compared to HFD group. Moreover high-dose FMG supplementation dramatically decreased the levels of inflammatory cytokines which secreted from adipocyte. Taken together, our findings suggest that H-FMG ameliorate high fat-diet induced obesity and its complication and could be used as a potential preventive agent for obesity.
