Research themes
The VALMIS team is interested in studying microbes of industrial interest (yeast and bacteria used for food processing or used as probiotics in human and animal care) and especially their interactions with environment (host organism, other microbes, wine and food matrix).
A first part of the team is focused on molecular mechanisms used by microbes during wine making to face hostile conditions arising during this industrial process (including acidification, presence of ethanol, low nutrient availability). They also investigate relationships existing between wine-associated microbial communities and wine alterations linked to the development of deleterious microbes.
A second part of the team, including clinicians, is interested in bacterial and yeast probiotics. Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. Our team explores stress resistance mechanisms induced by probiotics microbes during their transit through the gastrointestinal tract and the ability of these microbes to secrete biologically active molecules interacting with the host immune system or with the intestinal microbiota. Effects of these probiotics are assessed in various disease states including inflammatory bowel diseases and infection (with gut pathogens such as Salmonella spp. or Candida albicans).
A recent research topic of our team is to develop probiotics microorganisms (natural or genetically engineered strains), or innovative formulation of these microbes, able to sustain intestinal homeostasis, especially by stimulating the autophagic process. To date, activation of autophagy by pathogenic microorganisms and their subsequent elimination by this process have been extensively studied. Far less is known regarding the regulation of autophagy by the whole intestinal microbiota, individual commensal microorganisms or probiotics. Thus, our research project focus on two main axis: (1) to understand the role played by the whole intestinal microbiota on autophagy during basal state and during disease states (infection or inflammatory bowel diseases) and (2) to select commensal, probiotic strains or to genetically engineer bacterial strains to enhance autophagic activity in the gut, and thereby reinforcing intestinal homeostasis. We characterize the effects of these microorganisms on the autophagic process in vitro by using polarized intestinal epithelial cells lines and in vivo using mice (germ free vs conventional) and zebra fish model organism.
