Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is an indigenous intestinal bacterium and has potential to be applied as probiotic supplement. Low pH is one of the main stresses that E. faecalis has to deal with to colonize in the gastrointestinal tract. Previous study indicated low concentration of flavonoids may enhance the tolerance of probiotic to environmental stress. In the present research, transcriptome analysis was employed to investigate the influence of Cyclocarya paliurus flavonoids (CPF) on E. faecalis exposed to low pH environment. The results revealed that under the stress of low pH, genes related to cell wall and membrane, transmembrane transport, metabolism process, energy production, and conversion stress proteins were significantly differentially expressed. And certain undesired changes of which (such as genes for MFS transporter were downregulated) could be partially mitigated by CPF intervention, indicating their capacity to improve the low pH tolerance of E. faecalis. Results from this study deepened our understanding of the beneficial role of CPF on the probiotic in the gastrointestinal environment.
