author keywords: probiotic; Lactobacilli; oxidative stress; inflammatory bowel disease
MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Inflammatory Agents / therapeutic use; Colitis / drug therapy; Colitis / pathology; Colon / pathology; Cyclooxygenase 2 / metabolism; Disease Models, Animal; Immunohistochemistry; Interleukin-10 / deficiency; Lactobacillus / enzymology; Mice; Peroxidase / metabolism; Probiotics / therapeutic use; Specific Pathogen-Free Organisms; Superoxide Dismutase / biosynthesis; Superoxide Dismutase / therapeutic use
topics (OpenAlex): Gut microbiota and health; Probiotics and Fermented Foods; Vitamin C and Antioxidants Research
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that L. gasseri producing MnSOD has significant anti-inflammatory activity that reduces the severity of colitis in the IL-10-deficient mouse. (via Semantic Scholar)

2004 article

Expression of a Heterologous Manganese Superoxide Dismutase Gene in Intestinal Lactobacilli Provides Protection against Hydrogen Peroxide Toxicity

Bruno-Bárcena Jose M., Andrus, J. M., Libby, S. L., Klaenhammer, T. R., & Hassan, H. M. (2004, August 1). Applied and Environmental Microbiology, Vol. 70, pp. 4702–4710.

Contributors: J. Bruno-Bárcena* , J. Andrus*, S. Libby*, T. Klaenhammer n & H. Hassan n 

MeSH headings : Cloning, Molecular; Humans; Hydrogen Peroxide / pharmacology; Intestines / microbiology; Lactobacillus / classification; Lactobacillus / drug effects; Lactobacillus / enzymology; Lactobacillus / genetics; Oxidative Stress / drug effects; Protein Biosynthesis; Streptococcus / enzymology; Streptococcus / genetics; Superoxide Dismutase / genetics; Superoxide Dismutase / metabolism; Transcription, Genetic
topics (OpenAlex): Metal-Catalyzed Oxygenation Mechanisms; Redox biology and oxidative stress; Photosynthetic Processes and Mechanisms
TL;DR: The data show that MnSOD protects cells against hydrogen peroxide by removing O2·− and preventing the redox cycling of iron and is the first report of a sodA from S. thermophilus being expressed in other lactic acid bacteria. (via Semantic Scholar)

2003 article

Molecular characterization and functional analysis of the manganese-containing superoxide dismutase gene (sodA) from Streptococcus thermophilus AO54

Andrus, J. M., Bowen, S. W., Klaenhammer, T. R., & Hassan, H. M. (2003, October 16). Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Vol. 420, pp. 103–113.

author keywords: Streptococcus thermophilus; superoxide dismutase; MnSOD; sodA sequence; sodA mutant; SOD-null mutant; oxygen sensitivity; manganese ions; DNA polymerase III
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Gene Expression Regulation, Enzymologic / drug effects; Magnesium Chloride / pharmacology; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutagenesis, Site-Directed; Sequence Alignment; Sequence Analysis, Protein; Species Specificity; Streptococcus / chemistry; Streptococcus / drug effects; Streptococcus / enzymology; Streptococcus / genetics; Structure-Activity Relationship; Superoxide Dismutase / chemistry; Superoxide Dismutase / genetics; Superoxide Dismutase / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Mitochondrial Function and Pathology; Metal-Catalyzed Oxygenation Mechanisms; Metabolomics and Mass Spectrometry Studies
TL;DR: The results suggest that sodA is essential for the aerobic growth of S. thermophilus and in the absence of functional SodA, manganese ions may provide partial protection against oxygen toxicity. (via Semantic Scholar)
