Fermentation and proteome profiles of Lactobacillus plantarum strains during growth under food-like conditions
(2014)This study aimed at investigating the proteomic adaptation of Lactobacillus plantarum strains. Cultivation of L. plantarum strains under food-like conditions (wheat flour hydrolyzed, whey milk, tomato juice) affected some ... -
The antimicrobial peptide pheromone Plantaricin A increases antioxidant defenses of human keratinocytes and modulates the expression of filaggrin, involucrin, beta-defensin 2 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha genes
(2012)Plantaricin A (PlnA) is a peptide with antimicrobial and pheromone activities. PlnA was synthesized chemically and used as a pure peptide or synthesized biologically using Lactobacillus plantarum DC400 co‐cultured with ... -
NADP-glutamate dehydrogenase activity in nonstarter lactic acid bacteria: effects of temperature, pH and NaCl on enzyme activity and expression
(2010)Aims: To screen the glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity of nonstarter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) and to determine the effects of temperature, pH and NaCl values used for cheese ripening on enzyme activity and expression ... -
Contribution of selected adjunct or attenuated non-starter lactobacilli to ripening of Italian Caciotta cheese
(2010)Non-starter adventitious lactobacilli grow in cheese, reaching elevated numbers during late ripening. The interest may concern the use of non-starter lactobacilli as an adjunct in the form of fresh or attenuated cells. The ... -
Mechanism of degradation of immunogenic gluten epitopes from Triticum turgidum L. var. durum by sourdough lactobacilli and fungal proteases
(2010)As shown by R5 antibody-based sandwich and competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), selected sourdough lactobacilli, in combination with fungal proteases, hydrolyzed gluten (72 h at 37°C) of various cultivars ... -
Quorum sensing in sourdough Lactobacillus plantarum DC400: induction of plantari cin A (PlnA) under co-cultivation with other lactic acid bacteria and effect on PlnA on bacterial and Caco-2 cells
(2010)This work aimed at showing the effect of pheromone plantaricin A (PlnA) by Lactobacillus plantarum DC400 towards other sourdough lactic acid bacteria and the potential of PlnA to protect the function of the human intestinal ... -
Manufacture of Italian Caciotta-type cheeses with adjuncts and attenuated adjuncts of selected non-starter lactobacilli
(2011)Selected Lactobacillus paracasei FC2-5, Lactobacillus casei LC01 and Lactobacillus curvatus 2770 were used for cheese making as adjunct cultures (AC) or attenuated adjunct cultures (AAC). AAC were obtained by sonication ... -
Proteomics of the bacterial cross-talk by quorum sensing
(2011)Words such as language and behavior are frequently used to depict “quorum sensing” (QS) in the literature. Simplifying the concept, language and cross-talk between bacteria, and between bacteria and animal or plants hosts ... -
Drivers that establish and assembly the lactic acid bacteria biota in cheeses
(2018)Background: Cheeses are inherently microbiologically and biochemically dynamic. Numerous biotic and abiotic drivers govern the establishment and assembly of a core microbiota in cheese, which, for internally-ripened cheeses, ...
