Effect of low-frequency alternating magnetic field on exopolysaccharide production and antioxidant capacity of Pleurotus citrinopileatus by submerged fermentation. Int Microbiol 2024:10.1007/s10123-024-00604-9. [PMID: 39422857 DOI: 10.1007/s10123-024-00604-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 09/26/2024] [Accepted: 10/02/2024] [Indexed: 10/19/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of low-frequency alternating magnetic field (LF-AMF) on the production of extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) by submerged fermentation of Pleurotus citrinopileatus. The fermentation conditions optimized by the central composite design method were as follows: fermentation time of 6.18 days, temperature of 28.28 °C, shaking speed of 149.04 r/min, and inoculum amount of 8.43%. Under these conditions, a LF-AMF was applied to the submerged fermentation of P. citrinopileatus. When the intensity of LF-AMF was 40 Gs, the initial intervention time was 24 h after inoculation, and the treatment time was 6 h at one time, the mycelial biomass of P. citrinopileatus increased by 11.30%, and the EPS yield increased by 23.09% compared with the fermentation without LF-AMF treatment. The morphology of mycelium after LF-AMF treatment was observed by scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the surface of mycelium was wrinkled, and the structure of mycelium was loose, which might be more conducive to the production of EPS. Mycelium diameter decreased, and ATPase activity increased, indicating that LF-AMF had a positive effect on the production of EPS by P. citrinopileatus fermentation. Moreover, LF-AMF could improve the permeability of the mycelial cell membrane, facilitate the exchange of intracellular and extracellular substances, and increase the metabolic capacity of P. citrinopileatus. In vitro antioxidant test of EPS showed that LF-AMF treatment also improved its antioxidant capacity.

Curr Res Food Sci 2022; 5:2228-2242. [PMID: 36425595 PMCID: PMC9678808 DOI: 10.1016/j.crfs.2022.11.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2022] [Revised: 10/07/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced by the edible medicinal fungus Monascus purpureus (EMP) become the center of growing interest due to their techno-functional properties and their numerous applications in the food industries; however, the low EPS yields limit its application. In this study, the effect of genistein supplementation on the production, rheological and antioxidant properties of EPS by M. purpureus and its biosynthesis mechanism were explored. The results indicated that the addition of genistein (3 g/L) generated a 110% and 59% increase in the maximum mycelial biomass and EPS yield, respectively. The genistein supplementation group (G-EMP) had higher molar percentages of Xyl and Man, and significantly decreased molecule weight and particle size of EPS, which resulted in stronger antioxidant effect and cell growth promotion. Rheological analysis showed that both EMP and G-EMP demonstrated pseudoplastic fluid behavior and G-EMP exhibited strong gel-like elastic behavior (G' > G"). Furthermore, genistein not only facilitated the production of EPS by regulating cell membrane permeability, enhancing cellular respiratory metabolism and monosaccharide precursor synthesis pathways, and enhancing antioxidant enzyme activity to reduce oxidative stress damage, but also affected the composition of the monosaccharides by increasing enzyme activity in the underlying synthesis pathways. These findings expand the application of M. purpureus resources and provide a paradigm for future study of the structural and functional characteristics of EPS. Genistein (3 g/L) significantly stimulate yield of biomass and exopolysaccharides (EPS) from M. purpureus. The physicochemical and rheological properties of EPS were significantly changed. Their antioxidant and cytoprotective effect were compared. A possible mechanism for the response of genistein to increase EPS yield is proposed.

Comparative transcriptome analysis of Monascus purpureus at different fermentation times revealed candidate genes involved in exopolysaccharide biosynthesis. Food Res Int 2022; 160:111700. [PMID: 36076402 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2022.111700] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Revised: 06/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS), metabolites of the medicinal edible fungus Monascus purpureus, have antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the biosynthetic mechanism of EPS from M. purpureus is still unclear, which hinders its utilization. In this study, the fermentation conditions of M. purpureus were optimized and comparative transcriptomic analysis was performed to understand the mechanisms and effects of fermentation on EPS synthesis. The optimal medium composition was 40 g/L mannose, 4 g/L yeast powder, 1 g/L MgSO4·7H2O, 0.8 g/L KH2PO4, 1.6 g/L K2HPO4·3H2O, and 2 mL/L Tween 80, and the optimal cultivation conditions were an inoculum of 7 %, culture temperature 30 °C, initial pH 6.0, and 180 rpm for 4 d. A total of 8095 unigenes were obtained, and 17 key enzymes for EPS synthesis were identified. Interestingly, 12 carbohydrate metabolism subcategories were enriched in the group with 4 days of fermentation compared to 2 days, with most of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) being upregulated, but only nine carbohydrate metabolism subcategories were enriched with longer fermentation time, with all DEGs being downregulated. This study provides a theoretical basis for enhancing the EPS content and reveals the dynamics of EPS synthesis in M. purpureus, providing important targets for future EPS molecular modifications and gene knockdown studies.
