In modern society, more and more people suffer from mild or severe depression. It has been reported that malondialdehyde (MDA) level in the plasma of depressed patients is significantly increased. After receiving conventional antidepressant treatment, the patient's MDA level decreased to the same as that of healthy people. Therefore, researchers believe that oxidative stress may play an important role in the occurrence and development of depression, and the activity of antidepressant therapy may be mediated by improving oxidative stress/antioxidant function. We attempt to express an antioxidant enzyme system (peroxidase gene efeB) in the cell or on the surface of the engineered probiotic bacteria to inhibit the production of malondialdehyde (MDA) by human cells and prevent cell oxidation from causing health damage to the body. So as to prevent or alleviate the condition of depression.

The oxidation rate of peroxisome increases in proportion to the increase of oxygen tension. Especially in the case of high oxygen concentrations, the oxidation reaction of peroxisomes dominates. This characteristic allows peroxisomes to protect cells from the toxic effects of high concentrations of oxygen. efeB reduces the oxidative stress in the cell by competing with mitochondria for oxygen, and reduces the MDA produced during the oxidation of lipids.

Peroxidase EfeB, originally studied as a substrate of the E. coli "double arginine" translocation system, is the first recognized peroxidase for bacterial dye decolorization. Subsequent studies have shown that EfeB is a peroxidase with heme as a prosthetic group, and has a specific iron transport function.We use E. coli as the starting strain and construct an engineered strain of efeB to explore the effects of efeB on bacterial growth, malondialdehyde concentration, ROS synthesis and antioxidant pathways under different oxidative stress conditions.

Bacteria A contains plasmid A, pUC57-efeB, and the bacteria D contains plasmid D, pUC57. Cultivate them in H2O2 solutions of different concentrations.When the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is 0 mM, the relative biomass of bacteria A and bacteria D are the same. As the concentration of hydrogen peroxide increases to 1mM, the relative biomass of bacteria A increases while the relative biomass of bacteria D remains the same, which shows that without efeB, bacteria is unable to grow when ROS is present. As the concentration of hydrogen peroxide increases to 2mM, the relative biomass of bacteria A decreases by half while the relative biomass of bacteria D decreases to 0mM. This shows that bacteria with the efeB gene is able to survive when the level of ROS increases. As the concentration of hydrogen peroxide increases to 4mM, the relative biomass of both bacteria A and bacteria D are zero. This shows that when the level of ROS is too high, bacteria are unable to survive regardless of the presence of the efeB gene.
