Gut Microbiome and Response to Cardiovascular Drugs.

ABSTRACT: The gut microbiome is emerging as an important contributor to both cardiovascular disease risk and metabolism of xenobiotics. Alterations in the intestinal microbiota are associated with atherosclerosis, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and heart failure. The microbiota have the ability to metabolize medications, which can results in altered drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics or formation of toxic metabolites which can interfere with drug response. Early evidence suggests that the gut microbiome modulates response to statins and antihypertensive medications. In this review, we will highlight mechanisms by which the gut microbiome facilitates the biotransformation of drugs and impacts pharmacological efficacy. A better understanding of the complex interactions of the gut microbiome, host factors, and response to medications will be important for the development of novel precision therapeutics for targeting CVD.

Interaction between drugs and the gut microbiome.

Project description:The human gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem that can mediate the interaction of the human host with their environment. The interaction between gut microbes and commonly used non-antibiotic drugs is complex and bidirectional: gut microbiome composition can be influenced by drugs, but, vice versa, the gut microbiome can also influence an individual's response to a drug by enzymatically transforming the drug's structure and altering its bioavailability, bioactivity or toxicity (pharmacomicrobiomics). The gut microbiome can also indirectly impact an individual's response to immunotherapy in cancer treatment. In this review we discuss the bidirectional interactions between microbes and drugs, describe the changes in gut microbiota induced by commonly used non-antibiotic drugs, and their potential clinical consequences and summarise how the microbiome impacts drug effectiveness and its role in immunotherapy. Understanding how the microbiome metabolises drugs and reduces treatment efficacy will unlock the possibility of modulating the gut microbiome to improve treatment.

Designing bugs as drugs: exploiting the gut microbiome.

Project description:The extensive investigation of the human microbiome and the accumulating evidence regarding its critical relationship to human health and disease has advanced recognition of its potential as the next frontier of drug development. The rapid development of technologies, directed at understanding the compositional and functional dynamics of the human microbiome, and the ability to mine for novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers are leading innovative efforts to develop microbe-derived drugs that can prevent and treat autoimmune, metabolic, and infectious diseases. Increasingly, academics, biotechs, investors, and large pharmaceutical companies are partnering to collectively advance various therapeutic modalities ranging from live bacteria to small molecules. We review the leading platforms in current development focusing on live microbial consortia, engineered microbes, and microbial-derived metabolites. We will also touch on how the field is addressing and challenging the traditional definitions of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, dosing, toxicity, and safety to advance the development of these novel and cutting-edge therapeutics into the clinic.

The gut microbiome in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Project description:The gut microbiota has been linked to cardiovascular diseases. However, the composition and functional capacity of the gut microbiome in relation to cardiovascular diseases have not been systematically examined. Here, we perform a metagenome-wide association study on stools from 218 individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD) and 187 healthy controls. The ACVD gut microbiome deviates from the healthy status by increased abundance of Enterobacteriaceae and Streptococcus spp. and, functionally, in the potential for metabolism or transport of several molecules important for cardiovascular health. Although drug treatment represents a confounding factor, ACVD status, and not current drug use, is the major distinguishing feature in this cohort. We identify common themes by comparison with gut microbiome data associated with other cardiometabolic diseases (obesity and type 2 diabetes), with liver cirrhosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Our data represent a comprehensive resource for further investigations on the role of the gut microbiome in promoting or preventing ACVD as well as other related diseases.The gut microbiota may play a role in cardiovascular diseases. Here, the authors perform a metagenome-wide association study on stools from individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and healthy controls, identifying microbial strains and functions associated with the disease.

Elevated Systemic and Intestinal Inflammatory Response Are Associated With Gut Microbiome Disorder After Cardiovascular Surgery.

Project description:Systemic inflammatory response after cardiovascular surgery is associated with poor prognosis, to which gut barrier impairment is related. To investigate whether perioperative changes of the gut microbiome are associated with systemic and intestinal inflammatory response, we examined changes of the gut microbiome, intestinal homeostasis, and systemic inflammatory response in cardiovascular patients before (Pre) surgery and on the first defecation day [postoperative time 1 (Po1)] or a week [postoperative time 2 (Po2)] postsurgery. Markedly, the enhanced systemic inflammatory response was observed in Po1 and Po2 compared with that in Pre. In line with inflammatory response, impaired gut barrier and elevated gut local inflammation were observed in Po1 and Po2. Microbiome analysis showed a remarkable and steady decline of alpha diversity perioperatively. In addition, microbial composition in the postoperation period was characterized by significant expansion of Enterococcus along with a decrease in anaerobes (Blautia, Faecalibacterium, Bifidobacterium, Roseburia, Gemmiger, [Ruminococcus], and Coprococcus), which were typically health-associated bacteria. Spearman correlation analysis showed microbiome disorder was associated with enhanced systemic inflammatory response and intestinal dysbiosis. These results suggest that microbiome disorder was related to disturbed gut homeostatic and subsequently elevates plasma endotoxin and systemic inflammatory response after cardiovascular surgery. This study not only highlights gut microbiome would be considered in future clinical practice but also proposes a promising perspective of potential diagnostic and therapeutic options for perioperative management of cardiovascular surgery patients.

Gut microbiome and anticancer immune response: really hot Sh*t!

Project description:The impact of gut microbiota in eliciting innate and adaptive immune responses beneficial for the host in the context of effective therapies against cancer has been highlighted recently. Chemotherapeutic agents, by compromising, to some extent, the intestinal integrity, increase the gut permeability and selective translocation of Gram-positive bacteria in secondary lymphoid organs. There, anticommensal pathogenic Th17 T-cell responses are primed, facilitating the accumulation of Th1 helper T cells in tumor beds after chemotherapy as well as tumor regression. Importantly, the redox equilibrium of myeloid cells contained in the tumor microenvironment is also influenced by the intestinal microbiota. Hence, the anticancer efficacy of alkylating agents (such as cyclophosphamide) and platinum salts (oxaliplatin, cis-platin) is compromised in germ-free mice or animals treated with antibiotics. These findings represent a paradigm shift in our understanding of the mode of action of many compounds having an impact on the host-microbe mutualism.

Cardiovascular drugs and the genetic response.

Project description:The emergence of personalized medicine mandates a complete understating of DNA sequence variation that modulates drug response. Initial forays have been made in the cardiac arena, yet much remains to be elucidated in the pharmacogenetics of cardiac drugs. Most progress has been made in describing DNA sequence variation related to the anticoagulant warfarin and the antiplatelet drug clopidogrel. This includes a description of DNA sequence variation that underlies pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic variability, the impact of such variation on predicting hard outcomes, and the ability of genotype-guided prescription to facilitate rapid titration to a therapeutic range while avoiding unnecessary high plasma levels. Nuanced prescription will require a complete inventory of DNA sequence variants that underlie drug-related side effects.

Gut Microbiome Modulates Response to Cancer Immunotherapy.

Project description:With the advent of next-generation sequencing approaches, there has been a renaissance in the microbiome field. Microbial taxonomy and function can now be characterized relatively easily and rapidly-no longer mandating complex culturing approaches. With this renaissance, there is now a strong and growing appreciation for the role of the microbiome (referring to microbes and their genomes) in modulating many facets of physiology-including overall immunity. This is particularly true of the gut microbiome, and there is now an evolving body of the literature demonstrating a role for gut microbes in modulating responses to cancer treatment-particularly immunotherapy. Gut microbes can modulate immunity and anti-tumor responses via a number of different interactions, and these will be discussed herein. Additionally, data regarding the impact of gut microbes on cancer immunotherapy response will be discussed, as will strategies to manipulate the microbiome to enhance therapeutic responses. These efforts to date are not completely optimized; however, there is evidence of efficacy though much additional work is needed in this space. Nonetheless, it is clear that the microbiome plays a central role in health and disease, and strategies to manipulate it in cancer and overall precision health are being explored.

Genetic determinants of response to cardiovascular drugs.

Project description:Purpose of reviewTo survey genetic variation contributing to variable responsiveness and toxicity to important cardiovascular drugs and highlight recent developments in the field of cardiovascular pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine.Recent findingsPreviously recognized pharmacogenomic associations with drug efficacy have been further validated (e.g. with clopidogrel and warfarin) and shown to influence clinically important outcomes. The clinical significance of variants modulating toxicity (e.g. SLCO1B1 with simvastatin) has also been confirmed. The genetic contribution to variable efficacy and toxicity of other important classes of cardiovascular drugs, such as beta-blockers, is becoming increasingly recognized. Prospective trials testing whether the use of genomic information improves clinical care are underway. Guidance based on the most well-established pharmacogenomic findings has appeared in prescribing labeling and is in the early stages of being implemented into routine clinical care.SummaryClinically validated gene variants that modulate responsiveness to cardiovascular drugs continue to be discovered and validated. Early steps are underway to translate these discoveries into clinical care.

Hepatocellular carcinoma immunotherapy: The impact of epigenetic drugs and the gut microbiome.

Project description:The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been increasing for decades. This disease has now risen to become the sixth most common malignancy overall, while ranking as the third most frequent cause of cancer mortality. While several surgical interventions and loco-regional treatment options are available, up to 80% of patients present with advanced disease not amenable to standard therapies. Indeed, traditional cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents are notoriously ineffective and essentially play no role in the management of affected patients. This has led to an enormous need for more effective systemic therapeutic options. In recent years, immunotherapy has emerged as a potentially viable and exciting new alternative for the treatment of HCC. Although the current immunotherapeutic options remain imperfect, various strategies can be employed to further improve their efficacy. New findings have revealed epigenetic modulation can be effective as a new approach for improving HCC immunotherapy. Studying the gut microbiome (gut-liver axis) can also be an interesting subject in this regard. Here, we explore the latest insights into the role of immunotherapy treatmenting HCC, both mono and in combination with other agents. We also focus on the impact of epigenetic drugs and the microbiome in the overall effectiveness of HCC immunotherapy.
