Project description:The ability of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LOC1 and LOC3, originally isolated from fresh tea leaves, to modulate the response of murine macrophages to the activation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by the stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was evaluated.
Project description:The study evaluates the effect of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum IMC 510® supplementation on anthropometric and biochemical parameters, GM composition and gastrointestinal and general symptoms of overweight/obese subjects.
Project description:Using Drosophila we identified a glia-secreted antimicrobial peptide IM33, which alters gut microbiota to modulate sleep. To understand how the gut commensal Lactiplantibacillus plantarum functions in the brain to regulate sleep, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing.
Project description:Identification of proteins contained in extracellular vesicles of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum PCM 2675. Dataset is related to publication http://dx.doi.org/10.20517/evcna.2024.49. This work was financially supported by the National Science Centre, Poland (no. 2021/43/D/NZ6/01464).
Project description:The study was conducted on a model of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, one of the most studied species widely used in the food industry as a probiotic microorganism and/or microbial starter culture. As a result of step-by-step selection from the L. plantarum 8p-a3 strain isolated from the «Lactobacterin» probiotic, the L. plantarum 8p-a3-Clr-Amx strain was obtained, showing increased resistance, compared with the parent strain, to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (MIC 20 mcg/ml) and clarithromycin (MIC 10 mcg/ml). The L. plantarum strain DMC-S1 was isolated from the intestine of Drosophila melanogaster Canton-S line. Extracellular vesicles of this bacterium can play a significant role in the drug-resistance development and host-microbe interactions.
Project description:This study was conducted to analyze phenotypic and proteomic differences of two Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains (WCFS1, model strain from human saliva, and CIP104448, stool isolate) when a biofilm was produced under static conditions (well researched), or with the addition of flow (novel).
Project description:Lactiplantibacillus plantarum BRD3A exhibited promising bactericidal effects on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, inhibiting their biofilm growth. These findings indicate the potential of Lp. plantarum BRD3A as an alternative source to conventional antibiotics.
