ABSTRACT: The gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem stratified that varies along different sections of the gut. It comprises a wide array of metabolites originating from both food, host, and microbes. Microbially-derived metabolites, such as bile acids, short-chain fatty acids, and indole derivatives, are of significant interest due to their direct interactions with host physiology and regulating function. Most current studies on the gut microbiome focus on fecal samples, which do not fully represent the upper parts of the gut due to its stratification. To collect microbiome samples from the proximal gut microbiome, endoscopic methods or new non-invasive medical devices can be used. To enable comprehensive profiling of the gut metabolome and analyze key metabolites, we developed a combined approach combining untargeted and semi-targeted metabolomics using a Q-Exactive Plus Orbitrap mass spectrometer. Initially, we selected 49 metabolites of interest for the gut metabolome based on four distinct criteria. We validated these metabolites through repeatability and linearity tests and created a compound database using the software TraceFinder (ThermoFisher Scientific). For untargeted metabolomics, we established a workflow for the annotation and discovery of molecules. Finally, 37 metabolites were validated for semi-targeted metabolomics, and we conducted a proof of concept on small intestinal and fecal samples form a clinical trial (NCT05477069). Our combined approach, facilitated by molecular networking, demonstrated the potential to discover new metabolites.

Project description:On going efforts are directed at understanding the mutualism between the gut microbiota and the host in breast-fed versus formula-fed infants. Due to the lack of tissue biopsies, no investigators have performed a global transcriptional (gene expression) analysis of the developing human intestine in healthy infants. As a result, the crosstalk between the microbiome and the host transcriptome in the developing mucosal-commensal environment has not been determined. In this study, we examined the host intestinal mRNA gene expression and microbial DNA profiles in full term 3 month-old infants exclusively formula fed (FF) (n=6) or breast fed (BF) (n=6) from birth to 3 months. Host mRNA microarray measurements were performed using isolated intact sloughed epithelial cells in stool samples collected at 3 months. Microbial composition from the same stool samples was assessed by metagenomic pyrosequencing. Both the host mRNA expression and bacterial microbiome phylogenetic profiles provided strong feature sets that clearly classified the two groups of babies (FF and BF). To determine the relationship between host epithelial cell gene expression and the bacterial colony profiles, the host transcriptome and functionally profiled microbiome data were analyzed in a multivariate manner. From a functional perspective, analysis of the gut microbiota's metagenome revealed that characteristics associated with virulence differed between the FF and BF babies. Using canonical correlation analysis, evidence of multivariate structure relating eleven host immunity / mucosal defense-related genes and microbiome virulence characteristics was observed. These results, for the first time, provide insight into the integrated responses of the host and microbiome to dietary substrates in the early neonatal period. Our data suggest that systems biology and computational modeling approaches that integrate “-omic” information from the host and the microbiome can identify important mechanistic pathways of intestinal development affecting the gut microbiome in the first few months of life.
