Project description:Age-dependent changes of the gut-associated microbiome have been linked to increased frailty and systemic inflammation. This study found that age-associated changes of the gut microbiome of BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice could be reverted by co-housing of aged (22 months old) and adult (3 months old) mice for 30-40 days or faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) from adult into aged mice. This was demonstrated using high-throughput sequencing of the V3-V4 hypervariable region of bacterial 16S rRNA gene isolated from faecal pellets collected from 3-4 months old adult and 22-23 months old aged mice before and after co-housing or FMT.

Project description:The intestine is a site of diverse functions including digestion, nutrient absorption, immune surveillance, and microbial symbiosis. As such, intestinal homeostasis is vital for overall wellbeing. Faecal microRNAs (miRNAs) offer valuable non-invasive insights into the transcriptional state of the intestine. However, typical faecal miRNA yields and profiles remain incompletely characterised. Here, we develop an optimised protocol for faecal miRNA detection, and describe a reproducible murine faecal miRNA profile across several studies by performing a meta-analysis. By examining faecal miRNA changes during chronic infection with the gastrointestinal helminth, Trichuris muris, we identify the altered expression of miRNAs associated with fibrosis, barrier integrity and wound healing. Fibrosis was confirmed in vivo, suggesting a role for these miRNAs in regulating wound healing during chronic infection where the production of classical wound healing Th2 cytokines are low. Further implementations of this technique can identify novel hypotheses and therapeutic strategies in diverse disease contexts.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is strongly affected by diet, with red and processed meat increasing risk. To understand the role of microbiome in this phenomenon and to identify specific microbiome/metabolomics profiles associated with CRC risk, will be studied: 1) healthy volunteers fed for 3 months with: a high-CRC risk diet (meat-based MBD), a normalized CRC risk diet (MBD plus alpha-tocopherol, MBD-T), a low-CRC risk diet (pesco-vegetarian, PVD). At the beginning and at the end of the intervention, gut microbiome profiles (metagenomics and metabolomics), and CRC biomarkers (genotoxicity, cytotoxicity, peroxidation in faecal water; lipid/glycemic indexes, inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress), 2) Colon carcinogenesis: the same diets will be fed (3 months) to carcinogen-induced rats or to Pirc rats, mutated in Apc, the key gene in CRC; faecal microbiome profiles, will be correlated to carcinogenesis measuring preneoplastic lesions, colon tumours, and faecal and blood CRC biomarkers as in humans; 3) To further elucidate the mechanisms underlying the effect of different microbiomes in determining CRC risk, faeces from rats fed the experimental diets will be transplanted into carcinogen-induced germ-free rats, measuring how microbiome changes correlate with metabolome and disease outcomes. The results will provide fundamental insight in the role of microbiome in determining the effect of the diet, in particular red/processed meat intake, on CRC risk

Project description:Ivermectin and Diethylcarbamizine (DEC) are used in the elimination programs for lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis. It has been proposed that the drugs may have an effect on the host immune system that aids in parasite killing/elimination. We tested this directly by exposing human neutrophils and monocytes to the drugs in vitro.

Project description:The gastrointestinal ecosystem is a highly complex environment with a profound influence on human health. Inflammation in the gut, linked to an altered gut microbiome has been associated with the development of multiple human conditions including type 1 diabetes (T1D). Viruses infecting the gastrointestinal tract, especially enteroviruses, are also thought to play an important role in T1D pathogenesis possibly via overlapping mechanisms. Here, we apply an integrative approach to combine comprehensive faecal virome, microbiome and metaproteome data sampled before and at the onset of islet autoimmunity in 40 children. We show strong age and antibody related effects across the datasets. Mastadenovirus infection was associated with profound functional changes in the faecal metaproteome. Multiomic factor analysis modelling revealed proteins associated with carbohydrate transport from the genus Faecalibacterium were associated with islet autoimmunity. These findings demonstrate functional remodelling of the gut microbiota accompanies both islet autoimmunity and viral infection.

Project description:The intestinal microbiota plays a key role in shaping host homeostasis by regulating metabolism, immune responses and behaviour. Its dysregulation has been associated with metabolic, immune and neuropsychiatric disorders and is accompanied by changes in bacterial metabolic regulation. Although proteomic is well suited for analysis of individual microbes, metaproteomic of faecal samples is challenging due to the physical structure of the sample, presence of contaminating host proteins and coexistence of hundreds of species. Furthermore, there is a lack of consensus regarding preparation of faecal samples, as well as downstream bioinformatic analyses following metaproteomic data acquisition. Here we assess sample preparation and data analysis strategies applied to mouse faeces in a typical LC-MS/MS metaproteomic experiment. We show that low speed centrifugation (LSC) of faecal samples leads to high protein identification rates but possibly enriched for a subset of taxa. During database search, two-step search strategies led to dramatic and underestimated accumulation of false positive protein identifications. Regarding taxonomic annotation, the MS-identified peptides of unknown origin were annotated with highest sensitivity and specificity using the Unipept software. Comparison of matching metaproteome and metagenome data revealed a positive correlation between protein and gene abundances. Notably, nearly all functional categories of detected protein groups were differentially abundant in the metaproteome compared to what would be expected from the metagenome, highlighting the need to perform metaproteomic when studying complex microbiome samples.

Project description:The aim of the current study is to identify genes that show differential expression within the gastric lymph node of parasite resistant and susceptible sheep. For this we exploited parasite-naïve Blackface lambs with diversity in their predicted genetic resistance to T. circumcincta, which were trickle-infected with L3 larvae to mimic natural infection. This regime resulted in lambs with a spectrum of resistance as assessed by adult worm counts, faecal egg counts and IgA levels. Gastric lymph node tissue was used for transcription profiling of resistant and susceptible lambs to identify genes and physiological pathways associated with the differential activation of the immune response linked to the different disease outcomes.

Project description:We developed an approach named Rapid Assay of Individual Microbiome (RapidAIM) to screen xenobiotics against individual microbiomes. To evaluate technical reproducibility, we tested 43 compounds against an individual's microbiome. The individual microbiome is cultured in triplicates in 96-well plates for 24 hours and the samples are then analyzed using a metaproteomics-based analytical approach to gain functional insight into the individual microbiomes responses following drug treatments.The tested compounds significantly affected overall microbiome abundance, microbiome composition and functional pathways at multiple taxonomic levels. The microbiome responses to berberine, metformin, diclofenac, fructooligosaccharide and most antibiotics were consistent among most individual microbiomes. Interestingly, most of our tested NSAIDs, statins, and histamine-2 blockers induced individually distinct responses. Our workflow offers an effective solution to systematically study the effects of many different compounds on individual microbiomes.
