Abstract
This study investigated the anti-obesity effects of lactic acid bacteria ferments cultured in industrial medium with ethanol extract of ramie leaf (Boehmeria nivea L.). On the 4th day of fermentation, the maximum live cell counts were 8.75-8.85 log CFU/mL, pH was 3.74-3.79, and total acidity was 2.07-2.19%. The fermentation of lactic acid bacteria on the fourth day resulted in the amount of lactic acid reaching 1,676.03-1,910.12 mg%. The lipase inhibitory activities of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) JBLAB0101 (FRLPLA) and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG, (FRLLGG)) ferments were 30.10%, and 25.63%, respectively, at a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL. The lipid accumulation, leptin production, PPAR-γ and SREBP-1c mRNA levels were decreased to 37.54%, 54.64%, 24.18%, and 31.32%, respectively, at 200 μg/mL concentration of FRLPLA. These results suggest that anti-obesity effect could be increased by lactic acid bacteria in industrial medium with extract of ramie leaf.
