Synbiotics and Gastrointestinal Function Related Quality of Life After Colectomy for Cancer

ABSTRACT: The aim of this double-blinded prospective randomised trial is to explore the potential benefits of early postoperative administration of Synbiotics (combination of prebiotics and probiotics) to patients who have undergone colectomy for cancer. The patients are randomised to either synbiotics or placebo administration at the day they are able to tolerate po liquid diet and for 15 days thereafter. Primary end points of the study will be: Assessment of gastrointestinal function-related quality of life at 1, 3 and 6 months postoperatively by the use of the validated questionnaire GIQLI (Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index) Secondary end points will be: -Assessment of functional bowel disorders (diarrhea, constipation, etc) at 1, 3 and 6 months postoperatively based on the respective domains of the validated instrument EORTC QLQ-C30

Metabotyping Patients' Journeys Reveals Early Predisposition to Lung Injury after Cardiac Surgery

Project description:Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide and patients with severe symptoms undergo cardiac surgery. Even after uncomplicated surgeries, some patients experience postoperative complications such as lung injury. We hypothesized that the procedure elicits metabolic activity that can be related to the disease progression, which is commonly observed two-three days postoperatively. More than 700 blood samples were collected from 50 patients at nine time points pre-, intra-, and postoperatively. Dramatic metabolite shifts were observed during and immediately after the intervention. Prolonged surgical stress was linked to an augmented anaerobic environment. Time series analysis showed shifts in purine-, nicotinic acid-, tyrosine-, hyaluronic acid-, ketone-, fatty acid, and lipid metabolism. A characteristic ‘metabolic biosignature’ was identified correlating with the risk of developing postoperative complications two days before the first clinical signs of lung injury. Hence, this study demonstrates the link between intra- and postoperative time-dependent metabolite changes and later postoperative outcome. In addition, the results indicate that metabotyping patients’ journeys early, during or just after the end of surgery, may have potential impact in hospitals for the early diagnosis of postoperative lung injury, and for the monitoring of therapeutics targeting disease progression.

Respiratory Health Outcomes in Neonates (RHiNO) Study Urine Proteomics

Project description:Urine sampled from preterm-born (<34 weeks gestation) school-aged (7-12yrs) children and term born (>/=37 weeks gestation). Spirometry, exercise testing and cardiovascular assessment performed at time of sampling. Preter-born children with low lung function entered a randomised placebo controlled trial of inhaler therapies.

Transcriptional and Functional Characterization of genetic elements involved in galacto-oligosaccharide utilisation by Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003

Project description:It is increasingly recognised that the gastrointestinal microbiota plays a critical role in human health and promising evidence is accumulating that with dietary strategies, of prebiotic intervention, microbiota imbalances can be corrected and host health improved. Several prebiotics are widely used commercially in foods including inulin, fructo-oligosaccharides, galacto-oligosaccharides and resistant starches and there is convincing evidence, in particular for galacto-oligosaccharides, that prebiotics can modulate the microbiota and promote the growth of bifidobacteria in the intestinal tract of infants and adults. In this study we describe the identification and functional characterisation of the genetic loci responsible for the transport and metabolism of purified galacto-oligosaccharides (PGOS) by our model bifidobacterial strain, B. breve UCC2003. We further demonstrate that the extracellular endogalactanase specified by several B. breve strains, including B. breve UCC2003, is essential for metabolism of PGOS components with a long retention time and high degree of polymerisation. These PGOS components are transported into the bifidobacterial cell via various ABC transport systems and sugar permeases where they are further metabolised to galactose and glucose monomers that feed into the bifid shunt. This research described here advances our understanding of GOS metabolism by bifidobacteria and for the future there is great potential for exploiting bifidobacterial beta-galactosidase to create targeted prebiotics that can enrich for selected Bifiobacteria sp. and other beneficial microbes among the gut microbiota.

RNA-Sequencing Analysis of the Effects of UVA Radiation on Keratinocytes

Project description:Normal human epidermal keratinocytes were treated with sham or UVA (20J/cm2) radiation in duplicate. 6h after irradiation, samples were purified using Qiagen Rneasy kit, RNA quality assessment was performed using Agilent Bioanalyzer, and library preparation was performed using oligodT selection. RNA-Seq was performed on Illumina HiSeq2000 platform with 50 bp single-end reads. Analysis used the Tuxedo pipeline. Results were validated by qRT-PCR.

Whole Blood Gene Expression Profiling in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Colon Cancer Surgery

Project description:We performed whole blood gene expression profiling in 26 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer stage I-III UICC. Saples were taken the day before surgery (-1), day one postoperatively (+1) and day 10 postoperatively (+10). The aim of the study was to investigate whether gene expression was altered after laparoscopic colon cancer surgery.

3’ RNA-seq of distal colon cells from mice treated or not with DSS and whose mothers were supplemented or not during pregnancy with the prebiotics GOS and inulin

Project description:Our study in mice investigated the potential effects of the prebiotics GOS and inulin administrated during gestation on the development of DSS-induced chronic colitis in the offspring. Mothers were given or not during gestation a diet enriched in the prebiotics GOS and inulin. Eight to ten weeks old male offspring were treated or not with 3 cycles of DSS in drinking water, one cycle consisting of 2 days with DSS and 5 days without DSS.

Probiotic and Prebiotic Supplementation of Antiretroviral Therapy Improves Gastrointestinal Immunity in SIV-infected Macaques

Project description:HIV infection results in damage to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, microbial translocation and immune activation, which are not completely ameliorated with suppression of viremia by antiretroviral (ARV) therapy. Furthermore, increased morbidity and mortality of ARV-treated HIV-infected individuals is associated with these dysfunctions. Thus, in order to enhance GI tract immunity, we treated SIV-infected pigtail macaques with ARVs supplemented with probiotics and prebiotics or with ARVs alone. In the colon, this synbiotic treatment resulted in increased expression of genes associated with antigen presenting cells (APCs), increased frequency and functionality of APCs, enhanced reconstitution and functionality of CD4+ T-cells and reduced fibrosis of lymphoid follicles. Thus, supplementing ARV treatment with synbiotic treatment in HIV-infected individuals may improve GI tract immunity and thereby mitigate inflammatory sequelae, ultimately improving prognosis. CD45+ (clone MB4-6D6) leukocytes were sorted from thawed colon samples from 4 ARV + probiotics animals and 4 ARV alone animals

Objective Perfusion Rate Assessment by Near-infrared Fluorescence in Ileal Pouch Formation and Ileal-pouch-anal Anastomosis

Project description:In this prospective, non-randomized cohort study, real-time intraoperative visualization using near-infrared-fluorescence by indocyanine green injection (ICG-NIRF) is performed at three time points during ileal pouch reconstruction. Postoperatively, a detailed software-based assessment of each pouch recording is performed to determine the objective ICG-NIRF perfusion rate, which is then correlated with the 30 day postoperative clinical outcome including occurrence of anastomotic leak of the pouch.
