The influence of long-term use of proton pump inhibitors on the gut microbiota: an age-sex-matched case-control study.

ABSTRACT: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used to treat gastro-esophageal reflux and prevent gastric ulcers, and have been considered as low risk. However, recent studies have identified possible associations between PPI use and gut microbiota, suggesting that PPIs use increases the risk of enteric infections, including Clostridium difficile infection. To investigate gut microbiota in Japanese PPIs users, we conducted 16S metagenomics analysis of fecal samples collected from PPI users and healthy adults. In total, 36 PPI users and 36 PPI non-users (as control subjects) matched by age and sex were recruited and fecal samples were obtained to analyze the gut microbiome using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. There were significant differences in the microbial structure between PPI non-users and PPI users. In contrast, the analysis of ?-diversity revealed no significant differences between PPI non-users and PPI users. When comparing in genus level between these two groups, the genera Streptococcus was significantly abundant and the genera Faecalibacterium was significantly decreased in PPI users. Our findings indicate a probable association between PPI use and the alternation of microbiota. These alterations might provide a mechanism by which PPIs predispose enteric infection such as Clostridium difficile infection.

Project description:Pharmaceutical expenditure is currently rising by 16% per annum in China, greater in recent years. Initiatives to moderate growth include drug pricing regulations, essential medicine lists and encouraging generic prescribing. These are principally concentrated in hospitals, which currently account for over 80% of total pharmaceutical expenditure. However, no monitoring of prescribing and perverse incentives encouraging physicians and hospitals to profit from drug procurement encourages irrational prescribing. This includes greater utilisation of originators versus generics as well as injectables when cheaper oral equivalents are available. The objective of the paper is to assess changes in proton pump inhibitor (PPI) utilisation and expenditure in China as more generics become available including injectables.Observational retrospective study of PPI utilisation and procured expenditure between 2004 and 2013 in the largest teaching hospital in Chongqing District as representative of China.Appreciable increase in PPI utilisation during the study period rising 10.4 fold, with utilisation of generics rising faster than originators. Oral generics reached 84% of total oral preparations in 2013 (defined daily dose basis), with generic injectables 93% of total injectables by 2013. Injectables accounted for 42% of total PPI utilisations in 2008 and 2009 before falling to below 30%. Procured prices for oral preparations reduced over time (-34%). Generic oral omeprazole in 2010 was 87% below 2004 originator prices, mirroring reductions seen in Western Europe. Injectable prices also decreased over time (-19%). However, injectables typically 4.3 to 6.8 fold more expensive than equivalent orals - highest for injectable lansoprazole at 13.4 to 18.0 fold. High utilisation of more expensive oral PPIs as well as injectables meant that PPI expenditure increased 10.1 fold during the study period. Lower use of injectables, and only oral generic omeprazole, would result in accumulated savings of CNY249.65 million, reducing total accumulated expenditure by 84%.Encouraging to see high utilisation of generic PPIs and low prices for oral generics. However, considerable opportunities to enhance prescribing efficiency through greater use of oral generic omeprazole.

Project description:The aim of this study was to 1) investigate the effects of 27 CYP3A4 variants on the metabolism of osimertinib and 2) study the interactions between osimertinib and others as well as the underlying mechanism. A recombinant human CYP3A4 enzymatic incubation system was developed and employed to determine the kinetic profile of CYP3A4 variants. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was applied to detect the concentration of the main metabolite, AZ5104. The results demonstrated that the relative clearance rates of CYP3A4.19, 10, 18, 5, 16, 14, 11, 2, 13, 12, 7, 8, and 17 in catalyzing osimertinib were significantly reduced to a minimum of 25.68% compared to CYP3A4.1, while those of CYP3A4.29, 32, 33, 28, 15, 34, and 3 were obviously enhanced, ranging from 114.14% to 284.52%. The activities of the remaining variants were almost equal to those of CYP3A4.1. In addition, 114 drugs were screened to determine the potential interaction with osimertinib based on the rat liver microsome (RLM) reaction system. Sixteen of them inhibited the production of AZ5104 to 20% or less, especially proton pump inhibitors, among which the IC50 of rabeprazole was 6.49 ± 1.17 μM in RLM and 20.39 ± 2.32 μM in human liver microsome (HLM), with both following competitive and non-competitive mixed mechanism. In an in vivo study, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into groups, with six animals per group, receiving osimertinib with or without rabeprazole, omeprazole, and lansoprazole. We found that the AUC(0-t), AUC(0-∞), and Cmax of osimertinib decreased significantly after co-administration with rabeprazole orally, but they increased remarkably when osimertinib was administered through intraperitoneal injection. Taken together, our data demonstrate that the genetic polymorphism and proton pump inhibitors remarkably influence the disposition of osimertinib, thereby providing basic data for the precise application of osimertinib.

Project description:Besides being part of anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment regimens, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are increasingly being used to treat dyspepsia. However, little is known about the effects of PPIs on the human gastric microbiota, especially those related to H. pylori infection. The goal of this study was to characterize the stomach microbial communities in patients with dyspepsia and to investigate their relationships with PPI use and H. pylori status. Using 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing, we analyzed the mucosa-associated microbial populations of 24 patients, of whom 12 were treated with the PPI omeprazole and 9 (5 treated and 4 untreated) were positive for H. pylori infection. The Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Fusobacteria, and Actinobacteria phyla accounted for 98% of all of the sequences, with Helicobacter, Streptococcus, and Prevotella ranking among the 10 most abundant genera. H. pylori infection or PPI treatment did not significantly influence gastric microbial species composition in dyspeptic patients. Principal-coordinate analysis of weighted UniFrac distances in these communities revealed clear but significant separation according to H. pylori status only. However, in PPI-treated patients, Firmicutes, particularly Streptococcaceae, were significantly increased in relative abundance compared to those in untreated patients. Consistently, Streptococcus was also found to significantly increase in relation to PPI treatment, and this increase seemed to occur independently of H. pylori infection. Our results suggest that Streptococcus may be a key indicator of PPI-induced gastric microbial composition changes in dyspeptic patients. Whether the gastric microbiota alteration contributes to dyspepsia needs further investigation.ImportanceAlthough PPIs have become a popular treatment choice, a growing number of dyspeptic patients may be treated unnecessarily. We found that patients treated with omeprazole showed gastric microbial communities that were different from those of untreated patients. These differences regarded the abundances of specific taxa. By understanding the relationships between PPIs and members of the gastric microbiota, it will be possible to envisage new strategies for better managing patients with dyspepsia.
