DataSheet_1_Effect of Bacillus subtilis BS-Z15 metabolite mycosubtilin on body weight gain in mice.csv

Our previous study reported that the metabolite of Bacillus subtilis BS-Z15 n-butanol site could reduce body weight gain in mice, showing anti-obesity effects. This study further demonstrated the effects of purified mycosubtilin on the body weight gain and gut microbiota of Kunming mice. 30 male Kunming white mice were randomly selected into three groups at four weeks of age: Control (group A), gavage-administered with saline daily; n-butanol site treated (group B), gavage-administered with n-butanol site metabolites (90 mg/kg); and mycosubtilin treated (group C), gavage-administered with mycosubtilin (6 mg/kg). Different groups’ gut microbiota compositions were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing technology. The results showed that the effects of mycosubtilin and n-butanol sites were consistent; the treatment groups showed a significant reduction in body weight gain as well as triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein contents as compared to the control group (P <0.05). Moreover, the size and contents of epididymal adipocytes were also significantly reduced (P <0.05), and the gavage administration of mycosubtilin could significantly increase the expression levels of lipolysis gene adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) in the mice liver. Mycosubtilin and n-butanol site treatments could significantly alter the composition of the gut microbiota as compared to the physiologic saline treatment. B. subtilis BS-Z15 metabolites may regulate weight gain primarily by mycosubtilin, according to these findings. The mycosubtilin might reduce weight gain in mice by regulating lipid metabolism, thereby reducing fat accumulation and altering the composition of gut microbiota.</p

Histogram representation of enriched category of GO annotation of DEGs in <i>S</i>. <i>parasitica</i> following copper sulfate treatment.

<p>GO categories (y-axis) were grouped into three main ontologies: biological process, cellular component, and molecular function. The x-axis indicates the statistical significance of the enrichment. All annotated genes were classified into three GO domains: biological processes, cellular component, and molecular function. Red histogram represents the biological processes, the yellow histogram represents cellular component, and the blue histogram represents molecular function. Dissimilar expression profiles were obtained from DEGs in the treated and control samples, revealing the obvious effect of copper sulfate on <i>S</i>. <i>parasitica</i> metabolism and physiology.</p
