Project description:There were 3 patients with CHB and 3 patients with SC HBV in microarray analysis. As for the liver function parameters, the average HBsAg and HBeAg levels of CHB group were obviously higher than SC HBV group. The obtained RNAs expression profiles were analyzed by microarray analysis. A total of 513 lncRNAs, 256 mRNAs and 48 miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed (DE) in patients with CHB compared with patients with SC HBV (fold change > 1.2 and P < 0.05).

Project description:Mammalian feces can be collected non-invasively during field research and provides valuable information on the ecology and evolution of the host individuals. Undigested food objects, genome/metagenome, steroid hormones, and stable isotopes obtained from fecal samples provide evidence on diet, host/symbiont genetics, and physiological status of the individuals. However, proteins in mammalian feces have hardly been studied, which hampers the molecular investigations into the behavior and physiology of the host individuals. Here, we apply mass spectrometry-based proteomics to fecal samples (n = 10) that were collected from infant, juvenile, and adult captive Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata) to describe the proteomes of the host, food, and intestinal microbes. The results show that fecal proteomics is a useful method to investigate dietary changes along with breastfeeding and weaning, to reveal the organ/tissue and taxonomy of dietary items, and to estimate physiological status inside intestinal tracts. These types of insights are difficult or impossible to obtain through other molecular approaches. Most mammalian species are facing extinction risk and there is an urgent need to obtain knowledge on their ecology and evolution for better conservation strategy. The fecal proteomics framework we present here is easily applicable to wild settings and other mammalian species, and provides direct evidence of their behavior and physiology.

Project description:Alterations in intestinal microbiota and intestinal short chain fatty acids profiles have been associated with the pathophysiology of obesity and insulin resistance. Whether intestinal microbiota dysbiosis is a causative factor in humans remains to be clarified We examined the effect of fecal microbial infusion from lean donors on the intestinal microbiota composition, glucose metabolism and small intestinal gene expression. Male subjects with metabolic syndrome underwent bowel lavage and were randomised to allogenic (from male lean donors with BMI<23 kg/m2, n=9) or autologous (reinfusion of own feces, n=9) fecal microbial transplant. Insulin sensitivity and fecal short chain fatty acid harvest were measured at baseline and 6 weeks after infusion. Intestinal microbiota composition was determined in fecal samples and jejunal mucosal biopsies were also analyzed for the host transcriptional response. Insulin sensitivity significantly improved six weeks after allogenic fecal microbial infusion (median Rd: from 26.2 to 45.3 μmol/kg.min, p<0.05). Allogenic fecal microbial infusion increased the overall amount of intestinal butyrate producing microbiota and enhanced fecal harvest of butyrate. Moreover, the transcriptome analysis of jejunal mucosal samples revealed an increased expression of genes involved in a G-protein receptor signalling cascade and subsequently in glucose homeostasis. Lean donor microbial infusion improves insulin sensitivity and levels of butyrate-producing and other intestinal microbiota in subjects with the metabolic syndrome. We propose a model wherein these bacteria provide an attractive therapeutic target for insulin resistance in humans. (Netherlands Trial Register NTR1776).

Project description:miRNAs have been found to circulate in the blood in a cell-free form; their potential as readily accessible disease markers is currently evaluated. Here, we investigated if miRNA expression profile in peripheral blood can be useful as disease parameter in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC), chronic hepatitis B (CHB), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and normal liver (NL). RNA from exosome rich fraction was extracted from serum of patients with 64 CHC, 4 CHB, 7 NASH, and 12 healthy volunteers. miRNA expression profile was analyzed by microarray. Histological evaluation for the degree of inflammation and fibrosis in liver disease patients was also performed. miRNA expression profile according to the degree of liver fibrosis and inflammation was established. Diagnosis of fibrosis, inflammation by using miRNA expression pattern was shown with accuracy 67.2~89.1%, 67.2~76.5%, respectively. Moreover, miRNA expression profile in several liver diseases was also established. Classification among CHC, CHB, NASH, and NL was well tolerated and reproducible. The expression pattern of miRNA in peripheral blood showed not only the useful parameter of the grade and stage of liver disease, but also diagnostic tool for liver disease.

Project description:Objective Crohn’s Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) are chronic inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Reliable diagnosis of these diseases requires a comprehensive examination of the patient, which include invasive endoscopy. This study assesses whether non-invasive LC-MS/MS based analysis of microbial and human proteins from feces may support the diagnosis of the diseases. Design In order to mimic a representative clinical background for this study, we investigated 17 healthy controls, 11 CD patients, 14 UC patients, also 13 Irritable Bowel Disease (IBS) patients, 8 Colon Adenoma (CA) patients, and 8 Gastric Carcinoma (GCA) patients. The proteins were extracted from the fecal samples with liquid phenol in a ball mill. Subsequently, the proteins were digested tryptically to peptides and analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled to an Orbitrap MS/MS. For protein identification and interpretation of taxonomic and functional results, the MetaProteomeAnalyzer software and the UniProtKB/SwissProt database and several metagenomes from human fecal samples were used. Results Cluster analysis and ANOSIM show a separation of healthy controls from patients with CD and UC as well as from patients with GCA. Among others, UC and CD correlated with an increase of neutrophil extracellular traps and immunoglobulins G (IgG) as well as a decrease of IgA. A specific marker metaprotein for CD was an increase of the human enzyme sucrose-isomaltase. IBS and CA patient’s fecal metaproteome showed only minor alterations. Conclusion Metaproteome analysis distinguished between patients with UC, CD and healthy controls and is therefore useful as a non-invasive tool for routine diagnostics in hospitals.

Project description:Exposure to high-dose radiation causes life-threatening serious intestinal damage. Histological analysis is the most accurate method for judging the extent of intestinal damage after death. However, it is difficult to predict the extent of intestinal damage to body samples. Here we focused on extracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) released from cells and investigated miRNA species that increased or decreased in serum and feces using a radiation-induced intestinal injury mouse model. A peak of small RNA of 25–200 nucleotides was detected in mouse serum and feces 72 h after radiation exposure, and miRNA presence in serum and feces was inferred. MiRNAs expressed in the small intestine and were increased by more than 2.0-fold in serum or feces following a 10 Gy radiation exposure were detected by microarray analysis and were 4 in serum and 19 in feces. In this study, miR-375-3p, detected in serum and feces, was identified as the strongest candidate for a high-dose radiation biomarker in serum and/or feces using a radiation-induced intestinal injury model.

Project description:Diet can regulate gene and microRNA (miRNA) expression and various biological processes in the gut. Dietary interventions have been proposed as therapeutic approaches for several diseases, including cancer. In a pilot study, we showed that a low-inflammatory Mediterranean diet reduced markers of local and systemic inflammation in 27 patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). We evaluated the changes induced by a low-inflammatory Mediterranean dietary intervention on fecal miRNome and intestinal tissue transcriptome in FAP subjects and assessed whether these changes could be associated with the beneficial effects observed in the pilot study. The diet modulated 41 fecal miRNAs, and this modulation remained for three months after the intervention. miR-5092-5p, miR-4527, and miR-3612-3p were positively correlated with adherence to the Mediterranean diet, while miR-6867-5p and miR-760-5p were negatively correlated with serum calprotectin levels. The altered miRNAs target genes mainly related to inflammatory pathways, DNA repair, metabolism, and cytoskeleton organization. Seventy genes were differentially expressed between adenoma and normal tissue. Most were different before the dietary intervention, but reached similar levels after the diet. Functional enrichment analysis identified the proinflammatory ERK1/2, cell cycle regulation and nutrient response pathways as commonly regulated by differentially expressed miRNAs and genes. These findings suggest that fecal miRNAs modulated by the diet reflect an epigenetic regulation occurring in tissues that seems to influence inflammatory pathways. miRNAs and genes with oncogenic and tumor suppressor functions are also regulated, highlighting the potential cancer-preventive effect of the low-inflammatory Mediterranean diet.
