Description

Title NOVEL LACTIC ACID BACTERIA AND USE THEREOF Technical Field The present invention relates to Lactobacillus reuteri and Bifidobacterium adolescentis, which are novel lactic acid bacteria, and more particularly, to a composition comprising the novel lactic acid bacteria useful in preventing and treating a neurological mental disease or an inflammatory disease.
Also, the present invention relates to a composition for diagnosing the neurological mental disease, comprising a preparation for measuring a level of an intestinal microorganism.
Background In modern society, neurological mental diseases including anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, etc. are on the increase due to a rapid rise in stress, etc. In particular, the trend is that more and more patients are suffering from mental disorders such as depression, anxiety and the like due to various causes such as social and structural ones, etc. in our modern times overflowing with individualism.
In severe cases, patients with mental disorders may end up committing suicide accidents. In particular, it is reported that more than half of depressed patients consider suicide. Indeed, it is known that 10 to 15% of those patients actually commit suicide.
Mental disorders have no clear and objective criteria for judgment yet, such that symptoms thereof may vary depending on respective patients. If there is any suspicion about mental disorders, treatment is required according to accurate diagnosis and examination. However, the reality is that such proper treatment is not done due to negative social attitudes toward hospital treatments for mental disorders.
Also, drugs such as antidepressants, etc. used to treat mental disorders have not shown a satisfactory therapeutic effect thereon and may cause serious side effects such as cardiovascular diseases, suicide and the like, such that those drugs are limited in use.
On the other hand, as a result of study involving a use of natural products, a composition for treating mental disorders using a Fomes fomentarius extract and a Lithospermum erythrorhizon extract is disclosed in Korean patent publication No. 10- 2017-0061457, but there is still a need for continuous research on effective lactic acid bacteria capable of treating mental disorders.
Against such backdrops, the present inventors identified that mental disorders may be diagnosed from a change in intestinal microbial communities, while studying a preventive and therapeutic agent for mental disorders, and further identified that novel lactic acid bacteria isolated from human and mouse feces show an effect of inhibiting a neurodegenerative disease-inducing factor, reducing anxious and depressive behaviors and the like, such that the novel lactic acid bacteria may be helpfully used in preventing or treating neurological mental diseases, particularly neurodegenerative diseases and mental disorders, thereby completed the present invention.
Prior Art References Patent Document (Patent Document 1) Korean patent publication No. 100061457 Detailed Description of the Invention Technical Problem An objective of the present invention is to provide a novel lactic acid bacterium.
Other objective of the present invention is to provide a composition for preventing or treating a neurological mental disease, comprising the novel lactic acid bacterium.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide a composition for preventing or treating an inflammatory disease, comprising the novel lactic acid bacterium.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide a composition for diagnosing the neurological mental disease, comprising a preparation for measuring a level of an intestinal microorganism.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide a method for diagnosing the neurological mental disease, comprising: a step of measuring a level of an intestinal microorganism from feces isolated from an individual suspicious about the neurological mental disease; and a step of comparing the level of the said intestinal microorganism with that of the intestinal microorganism in feces of a control group, rather than that of the neurological mental disease.
Technical Solution In one aspect for achieving the said objectives, the present invention provides a novel lactic acid bacterium.
Particularly, in the present invention, the said novel lactic acid bacterium may be Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 (depository institution: the Korean Culture Center of Microorganisms (KCCM), date of deposit: Aug. 04, 2017, accession number: KCCM12090P) or Bifidobacterium adolescentis NK98 (depository institution: the KCCM, date of deposit: Aug. 03, 2018, accession number: KCCM12297P).
Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 or Bifidobacterium adolescentis NK98 according to the present invention is characterized by being a novel lactic acid bacterium isolated and identified from human or mouse feces.
A 16S rDNA sequence for identification and classification of Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 according to the present invention is the same as SEQ ID NO: 1 attached to the present specification. Thus, Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 according to the present invention may include the 16S rDNA of SEQ ID NO: 1. As a result of analyzing the 16S rDNA sequence of the said SEQ ID NO: 1, such sequence was 99% homologous to that of known Lactobacillus reuteri strains, thus showing the highest molecular phylogenetic relationship with Lactobacillus reuteri. Thus, the said lactic acid bacterium was identified as Lactobacillus reuteri, named as Lactobacillus reuteri NK33, and deposited to the KCCM on Aug. 04, 2017 (accession number: KCCM12090P).
Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 according to the present invention is a gram- positive bacterium and a cell type thereof is bacillus. More particularly, the physiological characteristics of Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 may be analyzed according to a conventional method in the art, wherein the results thereof are as shown in a following table 3. Particularly, Lactobacillus reuteri NK33 may use as a carbon source L-arabinose, D-ribose, D-xylose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-fructose, D-mannose, mannitol, sorbitol, N-acetyl-glucosamine, amygdaline, arbutin, esculin, salicin, cellobiose, maltose, lactose, melibiose, sucrose, trehalose, melezitose, raffinose, gentiobiose, D-turanose and gluconate.
A 16S rDNA sequence for identification and classification of Bifidobacterium adolescentis NK98 according to the present invention is the same as SEQ ID NO: 38 attached to the present specification.

Mode for Invention Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail through preferred Examples and Experimental Examples for better understanding of the present invention. However, the following Examples and Experimental Examples are provided only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention, and thus the present invention is not limited thereto.
Experimental Example 1. Animal model with a mental disorder induced (1) Immobilization stress In order to induce a mental disorder such as anxiety, depression, stress or the like, a mouse was fixed to a 3 x 10 cm cylindrical-shaped immobilization stress apparatus, such that the mouse may not move therein at all.
Particularly, in order to prepare a mouse with anxiety induced by immobilization stress, the said mouse, which had been fixed to the apparatus, was repeatedly subjected to immobilization stress five times, in such a way that the mouse was held with its head up for two hours once every other day, and then a behavioral experiment was performed in two hours after a final immobilization stress.
Also, in order to prepare a mouse with depression induced by immobilization stress, the said mouse, which had been fixed to the apparatus, was repeatedly subjected to continuous immobilization stress once daily for two days, in such a way that the mouse was held with its head up for 12 hours. A lactic acid bacterium was administered once daily for five days, and a behaviroal experiment was performed in one hour after a final administration. (2) Antibiotic stress In order to induce a mental disorder such as anxiety, depression, stress or the like, a mouse was administered ampicillin (100 mg/kg) for two days in a row. An anxiety behavior was measured in 10 days after administration. (3) Experimental method on an animal model with a mental disorder induced For a mouse model with immobilization stress induced, a lactic acid bacterium or physiological saline solution was administered thereto depending on an experimental group once daily for three days from Day 7 after starting the immobilization stress. For a mouse model with antibiotic stress induced, a lactic acid bacterium or physiological saline solution was administered thereto depending on an experimental group once daily for three days from Day 7 after starting the antibiotic stress.
An anxiety behavior was measured in five hours after administering the lactic acid bacterium or physiological saline solution, and blood indicators (corticosterone, IL-6, TNF-a, etc.) were measured by collecting blood in one hour after finishing an elevated plus maze test.
Experimental Example 2. Behavior measurement method for stress diagnosis (1) Elevated plus maze (EPM) test An elevated plus maze is an experimental apparatus to measure a degree of a mental disorder such as stress, anxiety or the like. An elevated plus maze experimental apparatus used in the present experiment is a black plexiglass apparatus, in which two open arms (30 x 7 cm) and two enclosed arms (30 x 7 cm) with 20 cm-high walls stand 50 cm high above a floor, each extending 7 cm away from a center platform. In the present test, a mouse was placed in the elevated plus maze in a room, where a video camera of 20 Lux was installed high up there, and then a movement of the mouse was recorded.
Particularly, a C57BL/6 mouse (male, 19-22 g) was placed in the middle of the elevated plus maze, in such a way that a head of the mouse faced toward an open arm.
Time spent in open and closed arms as well as the number of arm entries were measured for five minutes. An arm entry was defined as a case in which the mouse entered an arm with all four feet.
Out of a whole test time, the time spent in open arms (OT) was calculated via [Time spent in open arms (OT) / (Time spent in open arms (OT) + Time spent in closed arms)] x 100. And open arm entries (OE) were calculated via [Open arm entries (OE) / (Open arm entries (OE) + Closed arm entries)] x 100. After the end of each behavioral experiment, remaining smell was eliminated by means of 70% ethanol.
According to a known interpretation of test results, it was interpreted that a mental disorder symptom such as anxiety, depression or the like occurs, if OT and OE decrease. (2) Light/dark transition test An apparatus used for a light/dark transition test consisted of a bright area (21 x 42 x 25 cm, 390 Lux white diode) and a dark area (21 x 42 x 25 cm, 2 Lux), which were of a size and partitioned off with a door (7.5 x 7.5 cm). A mouse was placed in a bright area and observed for five minutes, during which time in bright area and the number of transitions into the bright area were measured. After the end of each behavioral experiment, remaining smell was eliminated by means of 70% ethanol.
According to a known interpretation of test results, it was interpreted that a mental disorder symptom such as anxiety, depression or the like occurs, if the time in bright area and the number of transitions into the bright area decrease. (3) Marble burying test A mouse was placed in a transparent cage filled with sawdust 5 cm deep, and stayed there for 15 minutes. Then, 25 marbles (transparent, 2 cm in diameter) were placed on the sawdust at an interval of 5 cm. The mouse was placed again in the middle of one side and the number of marbles that the mouse buried for 30 minutes was measured.
According to a known interpretation of test results, it was interpreted that a mental disorder symptom such as anxiety, depression or the like occurs, if the mouse’s behavior of burying and hiding marbles increases. (4) Forced swimming test (FST) According to a method of Porsolt et al. (Porsolt RD, Le Pichon, Jalfre M (1977) Depression: A new animal model sensitive to antidepressant treatments, Nature, Vol. 266; pp. 730-732), water at 25±1°C was filled into a water tank 40 cm in height and 20 cm in diameter, until a water level reached 25 cm high. A laboratory mouse was put into each tank and stayed there for total six minutes, out of which first two minutes were not measured as an adaptive time, and then for the last four minutes, an immobility time of the laboratory animal was measured. The immobility means a state that the mouse is floating in the water motionlessly except the least movement to keep its head only above the water. (5) Tail suspension test (TST) According to a method of Steru et al. (Steru L, Chermat R, Thierry B, Simon P (1985) The tail suspension test: A new method for screening antidepressants in mice, Psychopharmacology, Vol. 85; pp. 367-370), a mouse was hanged up in a container 35 cm in diameter and 50 cm in height by placing a fixing device approximately 1 cm from the tip of a tail thereof of a mouse, such that the mouse was suspended 50 cm above a floor. For six minutes in total, an immobility time of the laboratory animal was measured.
Experimental Example 3. Experiment on identification of an intestinal microbial community A real-time PCR or 454 pyrosequencing was performed to measure the shares of firmicutes, proteobacteria, actinobacteria, bacteroidetes and the like in an intestinal microbial community.
Particularly, DNA of feces obtained from an animal model was isolated by means of QIAamp DNA stool mini kit (Qiagen, Germany). Pyrosequencing was performed by means of a barcoded primer (V1 to V3 domains of a bacterial 16S rDNA gene). qPCR was analyzed by means of a primer shown in a following table 1.
