Probiotics are widely used for protection against stress-induced intestinal dysfunction. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in gastrointestinal disorders. It is established that probiotics alleviate oxidative stress; however, the mechanism of action has not been elucidated. We developed an in vitro intestinal porcine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) model of oxidative stress to explore the antioxidant effect and potential mode of action of Lactobacillus plantarum ZLP001. The IPEC-J2 cells were preincubated with and without L. plantarum ZLP001 for 3 h and then exposed to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for 4 h. Pretreatment with L. plantarum ZLP001 protected IPEC-J2 cells against H2O2-induced oxidative damage as indicated by cell viability assays and significantly alleviated apoptosis elicited by H2O2. L. plantarum ZLP001 pretreatment decreased reactive oxygen species production and the cellular malondialdehyde concentration and increased the mitochondrial membrane potential compared with H2O2 treatment alone, suggesting that L. plantarum ZLP001 promotes the maintenance of redox homeostasis in the cells. Furthermore, L. plantarum ZLP001 regulated the expression and generation of some antioxidant enzymes, thereby activating the antioxidant defense system. Treatment with L. plantarum ZLP001 led to nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) enrichment in the nucleus compared with H2O2 treatment alone. Knockdown of Nrf2 significantly weakened the alleviating effect of L. plantarum ZLP001 on antioxidant stress in IPEC-J2 cells, suggesting that Nrf2 is involved in the antioxidative effect of L. plantarum ZLP001. Collectively, these results indicate that L. plantarum ZLP001 is a promising probiotic bacterium that can potentially alleviate oxidative stress.

“…Similarly, Devi et al. (2019) reported that probiotic supplementation of B. subtilis elevated antioxidant enzymes level in L. rohita . In line with the previous statements thus, L. fermentum URLP18‐supplemented diet promotes gut‐associated microbiota in the host and modulates the complex network of antioxidant gene expressions.…”

Effects of dietary supplementation of Lactobacillus fermentum URLP18 on growth, innate immunity and survival against Aeromonas hydrophila ATCC 7966 challenge in freshwater fish Cyprinus carpio (common carp)

et al. 2020

Probiotics utilization in aquaculture is getting great potential due to their functional attributes. The present study elucidates the effects of dietary supplementation of probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum URLP18 on growth performance, antioxidants, haematological indices, immune regulatory gene expression and disease resistance in juveniles of Cyprinus carpio. Fish were fed for 60 days with basal diet (BD) and diet supplemented with L. fermentum URLP18 at 2 × 108 CFU/g (DI) and 2 × 106 CFU/g (DII). Dietary supplementation of the selected probiotic showed significant increases in weight gain, specific growth rate, protein efficiency ratio, feed efficiency ratio (FER) and decreases in feed conversion ratio of C. carpio fed diet containing 2 × 108 CFU/g (DI). L. fermentum URLP18‐supplemented groups showed better haematological parameters such as red blood cell, white blood cell count, haematocrit (Hct) and haemoglobin (Hb) level relative to the BD group. A significant increase in the total serum protein and lower liver enzyme profile (ALT and AST) was noticed in probiotic‐supplemented groups. Pro‐inflammatory gene expression was significantly upregulated in L. fermentum URLP18 group. Likewise, supplementation of L. fermentum URLP18 at 2 × 108 CFU/g showed resistant against Aeromonas hydrophila infection and highest survival rate (88.09%) was observed. In conclusion, diet‐supplemented L. fermentum URLP18 at 2 × 108 CFU/g showed improved diet digestibility and resulted in better growth performance and FER in C. carpio. Haematological indices and total serum protein, antioxidant gene expression profile depicted the role of L. fermentum URLP18 through enhanced non‐specific immunity and health status of C. carpio.

“…Antioxidant status in fish, as determined by several antioxidant enzymes including CAT, SOD, GPx, and MDA have been considered as the first line of defensive biomarkers to protect cells and tissues from oxidative damage, caused by some free radicals such as superoxide anion (O 2-), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and hydroxyl radical (OH) [80,81]. Glutathione peroxidase, GPx is an important antioxidant enzyme showing strong radical-scavenging capacity against free radicals and lipid peroxides [82].…”

Total replacement of fishmeal with poultry by-product meal affected the growth, muscle quality, histological structure, antioxidant capacity and immune response of juvenile barramundi, Lates calcarifer

2020

The present study investigates if the total replacement of dietary fishmeal (FM) with poultry by-product meal (PBM), supplemented with methionine influences the muscle fatty acids composition, normal gut morphology, histological traits of the liver, muscle, and gill, liver enzymes, immune and antioxidant response, and stress-related gene in juvenile barramundi, Lates calcarifer in relation to growth and feed utilization. Barramundi (3.58±0.01g) were randomly distributed into six 300 L seawater recirculating tanks (25 fish/tank) and fed two formulated isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets for 6 weeks. The control diet had FM as the sole animal protein source, whereas other test diet had only PBM as an animal protein source. Dietary PBM affected the fish performance and feed utilization. Regarding muscle fatty acid profile, total saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids elevated while total PUFA particularly n-3 LC-PUFA and EPA decreased in PBM fed fish than control diet fed fish. Liver, muscle, gill, and intestinal histology showed no obvious alteration in control diet fed fish, however, more lipid droplets and hepatic vacuolization in the liver, necrotic myotome in muscle, hyperplasia in secondary lamellae in gill and short and broken folds in the intestine were observed in PBM fed fish. Similar to light microscopy observation of intestinal morphology, the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed shorter and smaller microvilli in fish fed PBM. Histopathological alterations in the liver of PBM fed fish were further associated with the elevated levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) and the significant upregulation of stress-related genes, HSP70 and HSP90. Also, a negative influence on lysozyme activity, and antioxidant enzymatic activities were recorded in fish fed PBM. Overall, it can be concluded that a total substitution of FM protein by methionine supplemented PBM negatively influenced the growth performance, liver health, histological traits of different organs, immune and antioxidant response, and expression of stress-related genes in juvenile barramundi.
