“…Previously, L. plantarum nF1 showed superior probiotic effects and antioxidant properties over other kimchi-isolated LAB. Lee et al (2016b) reported that both live and heat-treated L. plantarum nF1 ameliorates nitric oxide production against inflammation on macrophages due to the cell wall component. Because heat-treated probiotics are mainly composed of cell wall components such as lipoteichoic acid and peptidoglycans without viability, the efficacy of heat-treated probiotics might come from the immune control function from the components (Makino et al, 2006).…”

“…Because heat-treated probiotics are mainly composed of cell wall components such as lipoteichoic acid and peptidoglycans without viability, the efficacy of heat-treated probiotics might come from the immune control function from the components (Makino et al, 2006). Nanometric heat-treated L. plantarum nF1 was reported to improve Il12, Tnfa, and Ifng production in immunosuppressed mice (Lee et al, 2016b;Choi et al, 2018). Administering nF1-fortified yogurt (the same composition as PY1) improved immune function by increasing NK activity and IL-12 and IFN-γ production in immunocompromised elderly subjects (over 60 yr of age; Lee et al, 2017).…”

Influenza A virus (IAV) infection is a global public health concern. It causes respiratory diseases ranging from mild illness to fatal disease. Natural killer (NK) cells are an innate immune component that kill infected cells and secrete cytokines to modulate the adaptive immune system; they constitute the first-line defense and play important roles in controlling IAV infection. This study evaluated the effect of daily administration of heat-treated Lactobacillus plantarum nF1-fortified yogurt on immunity and protection against IAV infection. Mice administered with heat-treated L. plantarum nF1-fortified yogurt showed elevated NK cell-related cytokine expression levels. Daily administration of the L. plantarum nF1-fortified yogurt before IAV infection also enhanced splenic NK activity, lung inflammatory cytokine responses, and survival rate. Thus, daily administration of nF1-fortified yogurt enhances host immunity and helps prevent IAV infection.These authors contributed equally to this study. 2 Corresponding authors: moonsong@ korea .ac .kr and kwangwon@ korea .ac .kr 10676 KIM ET AL.

“…The fermentation process has also been shown to improve the elution yields of active components from natural resources, especially the hard structures of the plants, along with the bioconversion of its metabolites, which increase its efficacies by promoting synergistic effects with various components in the extracts [19,20]. Lactobacillus family members have generally been employed for this purpose because the extracts obtained from the fermentation of plant resources with Lactobacillus species exert many useful effects on treating skin disorders through metabolites obtained during fermentation processes [21][22][23]. Therefore, in this study, the fermentation of the skin of Aloe vera leaves by L. plantarum was performed to show the possibility of preventing skin aging through the activation of mitochondria and increased its antioxidant activities.…”

This study is the first to show that increased mitochondrial activities improved the antiaging effects of Aloe vera leaf skin fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum on UVb-irradiated skin fibroblasts. The fermented extract (AF) increased the activities of mitochondrial reductase and the complex II and significantly reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, even under UVb stress conditions, and also increased DPPH free radical scavenging activities compared with the hot water extract of outer layers of aloe leaf (AW) and quercetin itself. AF exerted a synergistic effect with quercetin and bioactive substances derived from the fermentation process. Moreover, mitochondrial activation of UVb-irradiated human skin fibroblasts by 0.3% (w/v) of the AF plays important roles in increasing collagen production up to 125 ± 5.45% and decreasing MMP-1 secretion down to 69.41 ± 2.63% of the control levels. The AF enhanced the upregulation of collagen gene expression, and this change was also greater than those induced by the AW and quercetin. Therefore, this study concludes that fermentation of the skin of aloe leaves increases the activation of mitochondria and inhibits the photo-aging of UVb-irradiated skin fibroblasts.

“…In this study, the fermentation process of A. arborescens with lactic acid bacteria is introduced to improve the cosmeceutical activities of this species. More specifically, the anti-skin wrinkling effects and the reduced toxicity of A. arborescens fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum were investigated because this lactic acid bacterium exhibits a relatively high ability to enhance the biological activities of A. arborescens in many applications compared with other Lactobacillus species [30,31].…”

This work clearly shows that Aloe arborescens but not gels from Aloe vera, a common juice-type product of Aloe, exerted anti-skin wrinkling effects, and these effects were greatly enhanced by lactic acid fermentation with Lactobacillus plantarum. Treatment with the extract from the fermentation process (FE) at a dose of 0.5% highly activated human fibroblast cells by up to 175%, whereas 140% activation and 105% activation were observed with the extract obtained using conventional water extraction (WE) and the gel from A. vera (GE), respectively. The treatment of human fibroblasts with FE at a dose of 0.5% increased collagen production by up to 170% and inhibited MMP-1 synthesis to 48%, which is likely due to its high antioxidant activity because the WE and GE showed markedly lower effects compared with those of the FE. Interestingly, the FE exhibited a profile dominated by relatively low-molecular-weight (MW) polysaccharides: 20% of the total polysaccharides in the FE were in the MW weight range of 600 to 900, whereas 95% of the total polysaccharides in the GE were in the MW range of 200,000 to 300,000. This result suggests that the larger polysaccharide molecules in the extract might be broken down during lactic acid fermentation, and the easy penetration of the small molecules in the extract into fibroblast cells thus results in improved anti-skin wrinkling effects. This conclusion is also supported by the finding that the FE and WE, but not the GE, contained similar amounts of barbaloin, a strong antioxidant eluted from A. arborescens through the fermentation process. Therefore, this study strongly indicates that the enhanced anti-skin wrinkling effects of the FE are most likely due to synergistic effects between the barbaloin and the low-MW polysaccharides retained after the fermentation process.
