Project description:Antimicrobial resistance poses a substantial threat to human health. The gut microbiome is considered a reservoir for potential spread of resistance genes from commensals to pathogens, termed the gut resistome. The impact of probiotics, commonly consumed by many in health or in conjunction with the administration of antibiotics, on the gut resistome is elusive. Reanalysis of gut metagenomes from healthy antibiotics-naïve humans supplemented with an 11-probiotic-strain preparation, allowing direct assessment of the gut resistome in situ along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, demonstrated that probiotics reduce the number of antibiotic resistance genes exclusively in the gut of colonization-permissive individuals. In mice and in a separate cohort of humans, a course of antibiotics resulted in expansion of the lower GI tract resistome, which was mitigated by autologous faecal microbiome transplantation or during spontaneous recovery. In contrast, probiotics further exacerbated resistome expansion in the GI mucosa by supporting the bloom of strains carrying vancomycin resistance genes but not resistance genes encoded by the probiotic strains. Importantly, the aforementioned effects were not reflected in stool samples, highlighting the importance of direct sampling to analyse the effect of probiotics and antibiotics on the gut resistome. Analysing antibiotic resistance gene content in additional published clinical trials with probiotics further highlighted the importance of person-specific metagenomics-based profiling of the gut resistome using direct sampling. Collectively, these findings suggest opposing person-specific and antibiotic-dependent effects of probiotics on the resistome, whose contribution to the spread of antimicrobial resistance genes along the human GI tract merit further studies.

Project description:The pharmacological significance of B vitamins, essential for various metabolic processes, and the therapeutic potential of probiotics in gastrointestinal health have been well-documented. However, the interactions between these entities remain poorly understood. In this study, we endeavored to elucidate the potential interplay between B vitamins and probiotics utilizing liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry, pharmacokinetic modeling, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Employing healthy and pseudo-germ-free rat models, we revealed that probiotics significantly improve the absorption of B1, B3, B5, and B12, and that the gut microbiota played a mediating role in this enhanced absorption of B vitamins by probiotics. High-throughput genetic sequencing uncovered a synergistic effect of B vitamins and probiotics in modulating the gut microbiota, particularly increasing the abundance of Verrucomicrobia and Akkermansia. Furthermore, in vitro experiments demonstrated that probiotics used in this study had a relatively minor influence on the production and permeability of B vitamins, while B vitamins did not significantly contribute to the growth, auto-aggregation, and adhesion of probiotics. In summary, a complex network connection exists between B vitamins and probiotics, wherein the gut microbiota emerges as a pivotal factor that cannot be overlooked.

Project description:Plants monitor and integrate temperature, photoperiod and light quality signals to respond to continuous changes in their environment. The GIGANTEA (GI) protein is central in diverse signaling pathways, including photoperiodic, sugar and light signaling pathways, stress responses and circadian clock regulation. Previously, GI was shown to activate expression of the key floral regulators CONSTANS (CO) and FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) by facilitating degradation of a family of CYCLING DOF FACTOR (CDF) transcriptional repressors. However, whether CDFs are implicated in other processes regulated by GI remains unclear. We investigated the contribution of the GI-CDF module to traits that depend on GI. Transcriptome profiling indicated that mutations in GI and the CDFs have antagonistic effects on expression of a wider set of genes than CO and FT, whilst other genes are regulated by GI independently of the CDFs. Detailed expression studies followed by phenotypic assays showed that the CDFs function downstream of GI to control responses to freezing temperatures and growth, but are not necessary for proper clock function. Thus GI-mediated regulation of CDFs contributes to several processes in addition to flowering, but is not implicated in all of the phenotypes influenced by GI. Seedlings of Col-0, the cdf1-R cdf2-1 cdf3-1 cdf5-1 quadruple mutant, gi-100 and gi-100 cdf1-R cdf2-1 cdf3-1 cdf5-1 quintuple mutant were grown for 10 days under LD conditions (16h light/8h dark). The aerial part of the seedlings was collected at ZT12 and RNA was prepared from three biological replicas

Project description:GIGANTEA (GI) is an important modulator of plant circadian system. Recent studies have reported that protein GI is localized in both nucleus and cytosol, and nuclear and cytosolic GI exert differential effect on plant circadian clock. We first generated GI-null mutants and transgenic Arabidopsis plants that expressed GI fused to green fluorescent protein gene (GIpro::GI-GFP) and GI-GFP with a nuclear localization signal (GIpro::GI-GFP-NLS) or with a nuclear export signal (GIpro::GI-GFP-NES) under the control of native promoter in GI-null mutants. To investigate differential roles of nuclear and cytosolic GI in regulating plant circadian clock, we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling for wild-type plants and the GI-transgenic plants at morning and evening, and analyzed complementation patterns of gi-2 lesion by nuclear and cytosolic GI. As a result, we identified four complementation patterns representing genes affected by only nuclear GI (GIN) or cytosolic GI (GIC), those by either GIN or GIC, and those by the action of both GIN and GIC. Furthermore, we compared the transgenic plants expressing GIpro::GI-GFP with WT and the other GI-transgenic plants to confirm whether abnormally expressed genes by the gi-2 mutation can be complemented by restoring protein GI. Wild-type plants (Col), GI-null mutants (gi-2), and the other transgenic gi-2 plants expressing GIpro::GI-GFP (called GI plants), GIpro::GI-GFP-NLS (called GI-NLS plants), and GIpro::GI-GFP-NES (called GI-NES plants) were grown for seven days under conditions of 16 h light and 8 h dark (LD) and harvested at 1h (ZT1) and 16 hr (ZT16) after the light is turned on, representing morning and evening, respectively. mRNA levels were measured from three biological replicates of Col, gi-2, GI-NLS, GI-NES, and GI.
