Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have the potential to degrade intestinal oxalate and this is increasingly being studied as a promising probiotic solution to manage kidney stone disease. In this study, oxalate degrading LAB were isolated from human faeces and south Indian fermented foods, subsequently assessed for potential probiotic propertyin vitroandin vivo. Based on preliminary characteristics, 251 out of 673 bacterial isolates were identified as LAB. A total of 17 strains were found to degrade oxalate significantly between 40.38% and 62.90% and were subjected to acid and bile tolerance test. Among them, nine strains exhibited considerable tolerance up to pH 3.0 and at 0.3% bile. These were identified asLactobacillus fermentumandLactobacillus salivariususing 16S rDNA sequencing. Three strains,Lactobacillus fermentumTY5,Lactobacillus fermentumAB1, andLactobacillus salivariusAB11, exhibited good adhesion to HT-29 cells and strong antimicrobial activity. They also conferred resistance to kanamycin, rifampicin, and ampicillin, but were sensitive to chloramphenicol and erythromycin. The faecal recovery rate of these strains was observed as 15.16% (TY5), 6.71% (AB1), and 9.3% (AB11) which indicates the colonization ability. In conclusion, three efficient oxalate degrading LAB were identified and their safety assessments suggest that they may serve as good probiotic candidates for preventing hyperoxaluria.

OBJECTIVE To report 2 cases of lactic acidemia associated with the use of metformin in patients with normal renal function. CASE SUMMARY An 82-year-old African American man and a 76-year-old white man developed an elevated serum lactic acid concentration a few weeks after initiation of metformin therapy for type 2 diabetes. After the patients discontinued metformin, the serum lactic acid concentration normalized in both cases. An objective causality assessment revealed that the adverse drug event was probably related to the use of metformin. DISCUSSION Metformin interferes with the production and elimination of lactic acid by a variety of mechanisms that are not well understood. Few systematic data are available on changes in plasma lactic acid concentrations in patients with type 2 diabetes and normal renal function. Clinical significance of a high serum lactic acid concentration needs clarification. CONCLUSIONS Metformin therapy can be associated with subclinical elevation of lactic acid concentration in the absence of renal insufficiency or other contraindications to using this agent in patients with type 2 diabetes. Periodic monitoring of basic metabolic panels may prevent this potentially serious complication of metformin therapy.

Metabolic syndrome is associated with alterations in the structure of the gut microbiota leading to low-grade inflammatory responses. An increased penetration of the impaired gut membrane by bacterial components is believed to induce this inflammation, possibly involving epigenetic alteration of inflammatory molecules such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs). We evaluated changes of the gut microbiota and epigenetic DNA methylation of TLR2 and TLR4 in three groups of subjects: type 2 diabetics under glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist therapy, obese individuals without established insulin resistance, and a lean control group. Clostridium cluster IV, Clostridium cluster XIVa, lactic acid bacteria, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Bacteroidetes abundances were analysed by PCR and 454 high-throughput sequencing. The epigenetic methylation in the regulatory region of TLR4 and TLR2 was analysed using bisulfite conversion and pyrosequencing. We observed a significantly higher ratio of Firmicutes/ Bacteroidetes in type 2 diabetics compared to lean controls and obese. Major differences were shown in lactic acid bacteria, with the highest abundance in type 2 diabetics, followed by obese and lean participants. In comparison, F. prausnitzii was least abundant in type 2 diabetics, and most abundant in lean controls. Methylation analysis of four CpGs in the first exon of TLR4 showed significantly lower methylation in obese individuals, but no significant difference between type 2 diabetics and lean controls. Methylation of seven CpGs in the promoter region of TLR2 was significantly lower in type 2 diabetics compared to obese subjects and lean controls. The methylation levels of both TLRs were significantly correlated with body mass index. Our data suggest that changes in gut microbiota and thus cell wall components are involved in the epigenetic regulation of inflammatory reactions. An improved diet targeted to induce gut microbial balance and in the following even epigenetic changes of pro-inflammatory genes may be effective in the prevention of metabolic syndrome.

It was previously found that when it is treated type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) by metformin, hyperlactemia does not develop or occurs extremely rarely, and due to concomitant pathology. Clinicians usually do not monitor blood lactate levels. Goal: to analyze the frequency of hyperlactatemia in patients with DM2, its possible causes and role in this of metformin, clinical manifestations, ways of elimination and prevention. We observed in the dynamics of 38 patients with DM2 receiving metformin in doses of 1500–3000 mg / day. All patients were tested the level of lactate in the blood. Hyperlactatemia was detected in 6 cases (12.8% of patients), of which two patients (5.3%) showed lactic acidosis: the blood lactate level of them was 4.0 μmol/L and 4.6 μmol/L. A correlation between the level of lactic acid and the dose of metformin has not been established. All observed patients had polymorbidity and compelled polypharmacy. Hypothyroidism was observed in 42.1% of patients; in patients with lactic acidosis hypothyroidism was decompensated, i.e. it was chronic oxygen starvation of tissues. Conclusion: Observations confirmed that treatment of DM2 with metformin is rarely complicated by lactic acidosis and even moderate hyperlactatemia. Complications of diabetes, concomitant pathology and compelled polypharmacy, including metformin, disrupt the metabolism of lactic acid, its elimination, utilization in gluconeogenesis processes; in ≈12.8% of cases, the level of lactate in the blood rises. The risk of lactic acidosis, i.e. death threat occurs in ≈5.3% of patients. Along with the etiological factors of lactic acidosis widely presented in publications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, in ≈42.1% of cases, lactate accumulation is promoted by hypothyroidism, the decompensation of which creates chronic oxygen starvation of tissues. To check periodically the level of lactic acid and monitor the function of the thyroid gland it is necessary in all patients with DM2, even if they are not treated with metformin.

Lactic acid bacteria are the type of bacteria that has benefits in food and health industries as a biopreservative, fermentative, or probiotics. Bali cattle are known as potential host for specific lactic acid bacteria. The aim of this study is to identify phenotypically lactic acid bacteria 9A isolated from bali cattle’s colon, that producing a substance which known has potency as antimicrobial. In this study, phenotypic identification included conventional method and API 50 CHL. The result of this study showed that lactic acid bacteria isolate 9A was Streptococcus sp., whereas identification by kit API 50 CHL showed isolate 9A as Lactobacillus fermentum with 83% identity. The difference between the results of conventional method and kit API 50 CHL, may indicate the difference in sensitivity and specificity of the two methods, hence it needs further confirmation.
