“…437 Lactobacteria species Lactobacillus Firm-4 and Firm-5, L. helveticus, L. kunkeei, L. helsingborgensis, L. kimbladii, L. mellis, L. mellifer, L. melliventris, L. apis, L. kullaberme, L. johnsonii, L. micheneri, L. timberlakei, L. quenuiae, and L. plantarum are represented in the gut of honey bees in the greatest diversity and are characterized by an enhanced antioxidant potential. 158,[438][439][440] The antioxidant potential of lactobacteria may be associated with the expression of antioxidant enzyme genes such as catalase, thioredoxin reductase, catalase, glutathione reductase superoxide dismutase, glutathione S-transferase, as well as other products with antioxidant properties, such as lipoteichoic acid. 158,441 In the gut of wintering honey bees, the number of lactobacteria species with enhanced antioxidant potential, such as L. mellifer, L. apis, and L. melliventris, is increased.…”

“…443 In the gut of honey bees, Lactobacillus species of L. plantarum (strains H28, H24, KX519413, KX519414, LP8, LP25, LP86, LP95, LP100) and L. kunkeei were characterized by an increased antioxidant potential that protects against different pesticides. 436,440,[444][445][446] All of these strains of lactobacteria from the gut of honey bees with an increased antioxidant potential can be selected as perspective strains for creating pharmabiotics. 445 There are new prospects for the use of components of lactobacteria, rather than their use in living form cultures.…”

In the last decade, metagenomic studies have shown the key role of the gut microbiome in maintaining immune and neuroendocrine systems. Malfunction of the gut microbiome can induce inflammatory processes, oxidative stress, and cytokine storm. Dysfunction of the gut microbiome can be caused by short-term (virus infection and other infectious diseases) or long-term (environment, nutrition, and stress) factors. Here, we reviewed the inflammation and oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases and coronavirus infection (COVID-19). Here, we reviewed the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) involved in the processes of formation of oxidative stress and inflammation in viral and neurodegenerative diseases. Moreover, the coronavirus uses ACE2 receptors of the RAAS to penetrate human cells. The coronavirus infection can be the trigger for neurodegenerative diseases by dysfunction of the RAAS. Pharmabiotics, postbiotics, and nextgeneration probiotics, are considered as a means to prevent oxidative stress, inflammatory processes, neurodegenerative and viral diseases through gut microbiome regulation.

“…The same authors have shown that feeding honey bee larvae with LAB ( L. melliventris , L. helsingborgensis , and A. kunkeei ) in sugar syrup over 5 months, reduced larval mummification in chalkbrood disease by over 80% [ 176 ]. Iorizzo et al [ 154 , 178 ] proved that L. kunkeei K7, K18, K34, K40, K41, K45, K55, K64, and K112 (current name Apilactobacillus kunkeei ) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum P8, P25, P86, P95, and P100 not only inhibited A. apis but were also suitable in the preparation of a “probiotic syrup” to reinstate the symbiotic communities of the honey bee intestine in case of dysbiosis and to perform a prophylactic action against A. apis.…”

Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are agriculturally important pollinators. Over the past decades, significant losses of wild and domestic bees have been reported in many parts of the world. Several biotic and abiotic factors, such as change in land use over time, intensive land management, use of pesticides, climate change, beekeeper’s management practices, lack of forage (nectar and pollen), and infection by parasites and pathogens, negatively affect the honey bee’s well-being and survival. The gut microbiota is important for honey bee growth and development, immune function, protection against pathogen invasion; moreover, a well-balanced microbiota is fundamental to support honey bee health and vigor. In fact, the structure of the bee’s intestinal bacterial community can become an indicator of the honey bee’s health status. Lactic acid bacteria are normal inhabitants of the gastrointestinal tract of many insects, and their presence in the honey bee intestinal tract has been consistently reported in the literature. In the first section of this review, recent scientific advances in the use of LABs as probiotic supplements in the diet of honey bees are summarized and discussed. The second section discusses some of the mechanisms by which LABs carry out their antimicrobial activity against pathogens. Afterward, individual paragraphs are dedicated to Chalkbrood, American foulbrood, European foulbrood, Nosemosis, and Varroosis as well as to the potentiality of LABs for their biological control.

Potential for Lager Beer Production from Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains Isolated from the Vineyard Environment

Saccharomyces pastorianus, genetic hybrids of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the Saccharomyces eubayanus, is one of the most widely used lager yeasts in the brewing industry. In recent years, new strategies have been adopted and new lines of research have been outlined to create and expand the pool of lager brewing starters. The vineyard microbiome has received significant attention in the past few years due to many opportunities in terms of biotechnological applications in the winemaking processes. However, the characterization of S. cerevisiae strains isolated from winery environments as an approach to selecting starters for beer production has not been fully investigated, and little is currently available. Four wild cryotolerant S. cerevisiae strains isolated from vineyard environments were evaluated as potential starters for lager beer production at laboratory scale using a model beer wort (MBW). In all tests, the industrial lager brewing S. pastorianus Weihenstephan 34/70 was used as a reference strain. The results obtained, although preliminary, showed some good properties of these strains, such as antioxidant activity, flocculation capacity, efficient fermentation at 15 °C and low diacetyl production. Further studies will be carried out using these S. cerevisiae strains as starters for lager beer production on a pilot scale in order to verify the chemical and sensory characteristics of the beers produced.
