Project description:Chronic acid suppression by proton pump inhibitor (PPI) has been hypothesized to alter the gut microbiota via a change in intestinal pH. To evaluate the changes in gut microbiota composition by long-term PPI treatment. Twenty-four week old F344 rats were fed with (n = 5) or without (n = 6) lansoprazole (PPI) for 50 weeks. Then, profiles of luminal microbiota in the terminal ileum were analyzed. Pyrosequencing for 16S rRNA gene was performed by genome sequencer FLX (454 Life Sciences/Roche) and analyzed by metagenomic bioinformatics.
Project description:To explore the effects of gut microbiota of young (8 weeks) or old mice (18~20 months) on stroke, feces of young (Y1-Y9) and old mice (O6-O16) were collected and analyzed by 16s rRNA sequencing. Then stroke model was established on young mouse receive feces from old mouse (DOT1-15) and young mouse receive feces from young mouse (DYT1-15). 16s rRNA sequencing were also performed for those young mice received feces from young and old mice.
Project description:To compare the similarities and differences in species diversity of the gut microbiota between the patients with melasma and healthy subjects. The feces were collected for 16S rRNA sequencing analysis of the gut microbiota.
Project description:Fecal samples collected on day 5 from randomly selected colitic SD rats were analyzed for gut microbiota by sequencing the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. The orally administered Dex-P-laden NPA2 coacervate (Dex-P/NPA2) significantly restores the diversity of gut microbiota compared with colitic SD rats in the Dex-P/PBS group and the untreated colitic rats (Control).
Project description:Gut microbial profiling of uterine fibroids (UFs) patients comparing control subjects. The gut microbiota was examined by 16S rRNA quantitative arrays and bioinformatics analysis. The goal was to reveal alterations in the gut microbiome of uterine fibroids patients.
Project description:Given the criticle role of gut bacteria involve in number of diseases, the gut microbiota from young and aged people were estimated using 16s rRNA next-generation sequencing. This study will benefit to identify the role of gut bacteria on the pathegenic mechasim of aging relative diseases.
Project description:A study aiming to determine if mice humanized by different donors have different gut microbiota and colonic gene expression patterns in response to the administration of a commonly prescribed, broad-spectrum antibiotic (co-amoxiclav). Male, germ-free mice were humanized by one of two healthy, unrelated human donors. 56 days later, gut microbiota and colonic transcriptome samples were analyzed at baseline, by 454 pyrosequencing and Agilent microarray, respectively. Antibiotics were then administered for 7 days, following by repeated sampling of both the microbiota and colonic RNA at days 8, 11 and 18. Results of the microbiota analysis revealed marked shifts in the composition of one donor group in response to antibiotics and not the other donor group. Transcriptomics revealed a more conserved response, however the magnitude of the effect was greater in the donor group that had a greater shift in the microbiota.
Project description:To determine microbiota composition associated with loss of KDM5 in intestine, we carried out 16S rRNA seq analyses of dissected intestine from wildtype and kdm5 mutant. [GSM2628181-GSM2628190]. A total of 78 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There were about 15 genera much less abundant in kdm5 mutant compared to wildtype. The kdm5 mutant were sensitive to pathogen. To confirm the microbiota associated with loss of KDM5 in intestine, 16S rRNA of new flies were sequenced and analyzed by Majorbio Bio-Pharm Technology Co. Ltd. (Shanghai, China) [GSM3243472-GSM3243481]. A total of 107 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There were about 20 genera much less abundant in kdm5 mutant compared to wildtype. To confirm the microbiota associated with loss of KDM5 drosophila feeding with Lactobacillus plantarum, 16S rRNA of kdm5 mutant flies were sequenced and analyzed by Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co., Ltd. (Tianjin, China) [GSM3263522-GSM3263527]. A total of 92 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. To confirm the microbiota associated with KDM5 knockdown in intestine, 16S rRNA of Myo1A-Gal4TS/+ and Myo1A-Gal4TS/+;+/kdm5RNAi flies were sequenced and analyzed by Biomarker Co. Ltd. (Beijing, China). [GSM3507915-GSM3507924]. A total of 50 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There was a significant different based on the genus level between two groups.
Project description:Here we report 16s rRNA data in gut microbiota of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with HBV induced HCC (HBVC) and non-HBV induced HCC (NHBVC) compared with healthy volunteers. A total of 2047 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. Our data shows that the NHBVC patients harbor lower anti-inflammatory bacteria and more pro-inflammatory bacteria, while the HBVC patients harbor more anti-inflammatory bacteria.
Project description:Microbiota dysbiosis has been reported to contribute to the pathogenesis of colitis, to demonstrate whether IL-17D protects against DSS-induced colitis through regulation of microflora, we performed 16S rRNA sequencing in feces from WT and Il17d-deficient mice. Our data indicate that Il17d deficiency results in microbiota dysibiosis in both steady state and DSS-induced colitis.
