Abstract

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a physical activity promoter that includes lactic acid bacteria from the human gut and/or a treated product of such lactic acid bacteria, or a food product composition for promoting physical activity containing same. In order to resolve the foregoing problem, the present inventors administered killed Lactobacillus Gasseri OLL2809 lactic acid bacteria to mice, and thereupon had the novel discovery that in addition to the effect of inhibiting eosinophilic infiltration, the effect of increasing the amount of action was also present. In other words, the present inventors perfected the present invention having discovered that ingesting Lactobacillus Gasseri OLL2809 or a fermented product/treated product thereof promotes physical activity, and specifically increases the amount of activity and also increases muscle mass.

Description

身体活動を促進させる乳酸菌Lactic acid bacteria that promote physical activity
 本発明は、ラクトバチルス・ガセリを有効成分とする身体活動促進剤、またはこれらを含有する身体活動促進用食品組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to a physical activity promoter containing Lactobacillus gasseri as an active ingredient, or a food composition for promoting physical activity containing these.
 不規則な生活やストレスの多い現代社会においては、生活習慣病の予防を始めとする健康維持やストレス解消のために適度な運動やスポーツをすることが推奨されている。 In a modern society with a lot of irregular life and stress, it is recommended that moderate exercise and sports be performed to maintain health and prevent stress, including prevention of lifestyle-related diseases.
 しかし、普段あまり体を動かすことのない人が急に運動やスポーツをした場合、すぐに筋肉疲労が起こったり、運動後に激しい筋肉疲労等に悩まされることがしばしば起こり、このことが日常的に運動を続けることが出来ない理由となっている場合がある。 However, when a person who does not usually move their body suddenly exercises or plays a sport, muscle fatigue often occurs immediately or suffers from severe muscle fatigue after exercise. May be the reason why you cannot continue.
 また、高齢者においては、適度な運動を実践する、あるいはリハビリテーションを実践する等が運動能力低下を防ぐ手段として用いられているが、モチベーションの維持の困難さや怪我の恐れもあり、現実的にはなかなか難しく、より効果的な方法が望まれている。 In elderly people, practicing moderate exercise or practicing rehabilitation is used as a means to prevent a decline in motor ability. However, in reality, it may be difficult to maintain motivation or injuries. It is quite difficult and a more effective method is desired.
 一方、近年「脳腸相関」という定義が注目されている。脳腸相関は、腸内で生じた様々な信号が、神経系や、ホルモンやサイトカインなどの共通の情報伝達物質、受容体を介して、中枢神経系へ伝達され、その情報処理過程に影響を及ぼすことをいう(非特許文献1)。 On the other hand, in recent years, the definition of “brain-intestinal correlation” has attracted attention. The brain-intestine correlation involves the transmission of various signals generated in the intestine to the central nervous system via the nervous system, common information transmitters such as hormones and cytokines, and receptors, affecting the information processing process. (Non-patent Document 1).
 この脳腸相関に基づくと、腸内細菌叢と神経系も双方向的に関連するものであり、例えば、プロバイオティクス機能を持つ微生物を摂取すれば、それが腸内細菌叢に作用し、腸内細菌叢の健常化をはかりながら、中枢系に作用して脳への活性化効果が期待できると考えられる。 Based on this cerebral-intestinal correlation, the intestinal flora and nervous system are also interactively related. For example, if you ingest microorganisms with probiotic function, they act on the intestinal flora, It is thought that the effect on the brain can be expected by acting on the central system while making the intestinal flora healthy.
 乳酸菌などの微生物と運動に注目した先行技術には、特許文献1(特開2004-269361)や、特許文献2(WO2007/023896)などがある。特許文献2には、ラクトバチルス ヒルガルディーK-3株の細菌から醗酵法で生産されるGABAにGH分泌促進作用を見出し、これにより、筋肉、骨格の増強、脂肪の減少、皮膚の若返り、免疫力の回復などの生理効果が期待できることが開示されている。また、特許文献2には、ラクトバチルス・ヘルベティカス CM4株で発酵した発酵乳が、(a)抗酸化酵素発現作用、(b)熱ショックタンパク質発現作用、(c)好中球の走化性及び組織浸潤抑制作用を有することから、遅発性筋肉痛の抑制に有効であることが開示されている。 Prior arts focusing on microorganisms such as lactic acid bacteria and movement include Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-269361) and Patent Document 2 (WO 2007/023896). In Patent Document 2, GABA produced by fermentation method from bacteria of Lactobacillus hihilgardi K-3 strain has been found to promote GH secretion, thereby enhancing muscle, skeletal enhancement, fat reduction, skin rejuvenation, immunity It is disclosed that a physiological effect such as recovery of the skin can be expected. Patent Document 2 discloses that fermented milk fermented with Lactobacillus helveticus koji CM4 strain has (a) antioxidant enzyme expression action, (b) heat shock protein expression action, (c) neutrophil chemotaxis and It has been disclosed that it has an action to suppress tissue infiltration and is effective in suppressing delayed myalgia.
 しかしながら、これらは、乳酸菌発酵によって生成される物質が、ホルモン分泌を促したり運動後の筋肉痛を緩和するものであって、脳腸相関による活動量の増加を促すものではなかった。 However, these substances produced by fermentation of lactic acid bacteria promote hormone secretion or relieve muscle pain after exercise, and do not promote an increase in activity due to brain-intestinal correlation.

 本発明において、「身体活動が促進する(身体活動が促進される)」とは、特にその態様が制限されるものではないが、具体的には投与対象又は摂取対象において「(身体)活動量が増加する」又は「筋肉量が増加する」という態様を好ましい例として例示することができる。 In the present invention, “physical activity is promoted (physical activity is promoted)” is not particularly limited in its aspect, but specifically, “(physical) activity amount in the administration subject or ingestion subject”. A preferred example is an embodiment in which “increases” or “increases muscle mass”.
 また、身体活動が促進され、身体活動量が多い者は、虚血性心疾患、高血圧、糖尿病、肥満、骨粗鬆症、結腸がんなどの罹患率や死亡率が低いことが認められている。すなわち、本発明において「身体活動促進」とは、虚血性心疾患、高血圧、糖尿病、肥満、骨粗鬆症、結腸がんなどの罹患率や死亡率を低下させることも意味する。 In addition, it is recognized that persons with increased physical activity and a large amount of physical activity have low morbidity and mortality such as ischemic heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis and colon cancer. That is, in the present invention, “promoting physical activity” also means reducing the morbidity and mortality of ischemic heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, colon cancer and the like.
 また、身体活動の促進により、メンタルヘルスや生活の質(QOL)の改善に効果をもたらすことが認められている。すなわち、本発明において「身体活動促進」とは、精神状態を改善させること、又は生活の質を改善させることも意味する。 Also, it has been recognized that promoting physical activity has an effect on improving mental health and quality of life (QOL). That is, in the present invention, “promoting physical activity” also means improving mental state or improving quality of life.
 また、身体活動の促進により、体重減少効果及び内臓脂肪量減少効果をもたらすことも知られている。すなわち、本発明において「身体活動促進」とは、体重を減少させること、又は内臓脂肪量を減少させることも意味する。 It is also known that physical activity promotes weight loss and visceral fat mass reduction. That is, in the present invention, “promoting physical activity” also means reducing body weight or reducing visceral fat mass.
 更に高齢者においても、歩行など日常生活における身体活動が促進されることにより、寝たきりや死亡を減少させる効果のあることが示されている。すなわち、本発明において「身体活動促進」とは、身体活動量の減少する高齢者において、活動量減少抑制による筋肉、骨、関節、脳機能を維持させることも意味する。 Furthermore, it has been shown that even elderly people have an effect of reducing bedriddenness and death by promoting physical activities in daily life such as walking. That is, in the present invention, “promoting physical activity” also means maintaining the muscle, bone, joint, and brain functions by suppressing the decrease in the amount of activity in the elderly with a decreased amount of physical activity.
 身体活動の促進効果は、実施例に記載の通り、投与対象又は摂取対象において(身体)活動量の平均値を、投与群(摂取群)及び非投与群(非摂取群)の間で比較することにより確認することができる。対象がマウスである場合には、マウスの活動期である暗期における行動量を測定することにより、身体活動量を測定することができる。基準となる週とその次の週の行動量の差を「行動量変化量」とし、行動量変化量を基準となる週の行動量で除することにより「行動量変化率」を算出でき、身体活動の促進効果の程度を確認することができる。「行動量変化率」が0%より大きい場合に、投与した乳酸菌は身体活動の促進効果を有すると認定することができる。本発明において、身体活動の促進効果により向上する「行動量変化率」の値の範囲については、特に制限はないが、好ましくは1%以上、より好ましくは5%以上、さらに好ましくは10%以上の変化率の範囲を例示することができる。 As described in the Examples, the physical activity promoting effect is compared between the administration group (ingestion group) and the non-administration group (non-ingestion group) of the average value of (physical) activity in the administration subject or ingestion subject. This can be confirmed. When the subject is a mouse, the amount of physical activity can be measured by measuring the amount of action in the dark period, which is the active period of the mouse. The difference in the amount of behavior between the reference week and the next week is defined as the “behavior amount change amount”. The degree of physical activity promotion effect can be confirmed. When the “behavioral change rate” is greater than 0%, the administered lactic acid bacteria can be recognized as having an effect of promoting physical activity. In the present invention, there is no particular limitation on the range of the “activity change rate” that is improved by the physical activity promoting effect, but it is preferably 1% or more, more preferably 5% or more, and even more preferably 10% or more. The range of the change rate can be exemplified.
 また、身体活動の促進効果は、投与対象又は摂取対象において筋肉量、体重、又は内臓脂肪量を、投与群(摂取群)及び非投与群(非摂取群)の間で比較することにより確認することができる。筋肉量を測定する部位は、四肢(上腕、前腕、大腿、下腿)又は体幹等、いずれの部位であってもよい。本発明において筋肉量の増加を確認する場合には、実施例に記載の通り、ある特定の筋肉部位(例えば、腓腹筋)の筋肉量の重さ(重量)を測定し、投与群(摂取群)の筋肉量及び非投与群(非摂取群)の筋肉量を比較する。投与群(摂取群)の筋肉量が、非投与群(非摂取群)の筋肉量よりも重い場合に、投与した乳酸菌は身体活動の促進効果を有すると認定することができる。 The effect of promoting physical activity is confirmed by comparing muscle mass, body weight, or visceral fat mass between the administration group (ingestion group) and the non-administration group (non-ingestion group) in the administration subject or ingestion subject. be able to. The part where the muscle mass is measured may be any part such as an extremity (upper arm, forearm, thigh, lower leg) or trunk. When confirming an increase in muscle mass in the present invention, as described in the Examples, the weight (weight) of the muscle mass of a specific muscle site (for example, gastrocnemius) is measured, and the administration group (intake group) And the muscle mass of the non-administration group (non-ingestion group). When the muscle mass of the administration group (ingestion group) is heavier than the muscle mass of the non-administration group (non-ingestion group), the administered lactic acid bacteria can be identified as having an effect of promoting physical activity.
 また、対象がヒトの場合には、運動強度指数であるメッツ(METs:metabolic equivalent)や、メッツに運動時間を掛けたメッツ・時(エクササイズ、Ex:exercise)という指標を用い、身体活動を行った時間や、その身体活動の種類により、身体活動量を測定することが可能である。メッツ(METs)とは運動によるエネルギー消費量が安静時の何倍にあたるかを示す、身体活動の強度を示す単位であり、「1METs(メッツ)=座って安静にしている状態」、「3METs(メッツ)=通常歩行」等、各運動強度を表すことができる。エクササイズ(Ex)とは、「身体活動の強度[METs]×身体活動の実施時間[時]」で示される身体活動の量を表す単位であり、本単位に体重(Kg)及び基準値(1.05等)を掛け合わせることにより、消費カロリー(kcal)を算出することができる。身体活動の促進効果は、上記の方法により算出された消費カロリーの量を比較することによっても確認を行うことができる。 In addition, when the subject is a human, physical activity is performed using an index called Mets (metabolic equivalent), which is an exercise intensity index, or Mets-time (Ex: exercise) multiplied by exercise time. The amount of physical activity can be measured according to the time spent and the type of physical activity. Metz (METs) is a unit of physical activity that indicates how many times the amount of energy consumed by exercise is compared to resting. “1METs = state of sitting and resting”, “3METs ( Each exercise intensity can be expressed such as “METS) = Normal walking”. Exercise (Ex) is a unit that expresses the amount of physical activity indicated by “intensity of physical activity [METs] × duration of physical activity [hours]”. This unit includes body weight (Kg) and reference value (1.05). Etc.) can be calculated to calculate calorie consumption (kcal). The physical activity promotion effect can also be confirmed by comparing the calorie consumption calculated by the above method.
 また、身体活動促進剤の体内投与後の生残性は、胃酸・胆汁酸耐性試験によって確認できる。培養も、Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2809について上述したのと同様の方法によって可能である。 Survival after administration of the physical activity promoter can be confirmed by a gastric acid / bile acid tolerance test.

〔実施例1〕
Hereinafter, as an example of the present invention, the results of Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2809 (Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2809, accession number: NITE BP-72) will be described in detail. However, the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[Example 1]
 6週齢のBALB/c雄性マウスを1週間馴化した後、実験に供した。実験開始1週間前に、測定値のばらつきを少なくするため、行動量による群分けを行なった。各群は1群8匹とした。実験開始日より、乳酸菌投与群として、乳酸菌Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2809の死菌体を2mg/body/day(2mg当たり、1x108から5 x108コ)、または、蒸留水投与群として蒸留水を 25日間経口投与し、マウスの活動期である暗期における行動量を測定した。行動量の測定は、赤外線の行動量測定装置(シンファクトリー社製)にて1週間に2回、24時間測定した。試験開始26日目に、マウスをエーテル麻酔下で頬の顔面静脈から採血し、腓腹筋を摘出し筋肉重量を測定した。統計処理は水投与群と乳酸菌投与群間でStudent's t-testを行なった。 Six weeks old BALB / c male mice were acclimated for one week and then subjected to experiments. One week before the start of the experiment, in order to reduce the variation in the measured values, grouping was performed based on the amount of behavior. Each group consisted of 8 animals per group. From the start of the experiment, the lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2809 dead cells were administered at 2 mg / body / day (1x10 8 to 5 x10 8 per 2 mg), or distilled water was administered orally for 25 days The amount of behavior in the dark period, which is the active period of mice, was measured. The amount of behavior was measured twice a week for 24 hours with an infrared behavior amount measuring device (manufactured by Shin Factory). On the 26th day from the start of the test, blood was collected from the facial veins of the cheeks under ether anesthesia, and the gastrocnemius muscle was removed and the muscle weight was measured. For statistical processing, Student's t-test was performed between the water administration group and the lactic acid bacteria administration group.
 行動量は、投与2週目(2回の測定の平均値)と3週目(2回の測定の平均値)について、投与2週目と投与3週目での測定値の変化率(%)で比較した。 The amount of behavior is the change rate (%) between the second week of administration and the third week of administration for the second week (average value of two measurements) and the third week (average value of two measurements). ).
 その結果、乳酸菌投与群の行動量変化率は水投与群に比べて有意な高値を示すことが明らかとなった(図1:p=0.049)。また、剖検時は乳酸菌投与群の体重あたり右腓腹筋重量は水投与群と比べて有意な高値を示した(図2:p=0.016)。 As a result, it was found that the rate of change in the amount of behavior in the lactic acid bacteria administration group was significantly higher than that in the water administration group (FIG. 1: p = 0.049). At necropsy, the weight of the right gastrocnemius per body weight of the lactic acid bacteria administration group was significantly higher than that of the water administration group (FIG. 2: p = 0.016).
 以上の結果から、Lactobacillus gasseriを投与することにより、投与対象の身体活動が促進されることが確認された。本技術は実施例に示したLactobacillus gasseriに限定されるものではなく、広くLactobacillus gasseri乳酸菌種に応用できる可能性が高い。 From the above results, it was confirmed that administration of Lactobacillus gasseri promotes physical activity of the administration target. The present technology is not limited to Lactobacillus gasseri shown in the Examples, and is likely to be widely applicable to Lactobacillus gasseri lactic acid bacteria species.
 本発明の身体活動促進剤は、後述する実施例において確認されるとおり、投与した対象の活動量を増加し、その筋肉量を増加する。このことから、本発明により、生活習慣病の予防を始めとする健康維持やストレス解消に有効な、新たな身体活動促進剤、またはこれを含有する身体活動促進用食品組成物を提供することが可能になった。 The physical activity promoter of the present invention increases the amount of activity of the administered subject and increases its muscle mass, as confirmed in the examples described later. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a new physical activity promoter or a food composition for promoting physical activity containing the same, which is effective for health maintenance and stress relief including prevention of lifestyle-related diseases.
