Project description:Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an inflammatory genetic disease characterized by elevated systemic reactivity against commensal gut microbiota and high levels of gut Candida albicans. The current study investigated the effects of Lactobacillus acidophillus INMIA 9602 Er 317/402 strain (probiotic “Narine”) on the relative abundance of gut enteric bacteria, lactobacilli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enteroccocus faecalis in Candida albicans-carrier and non-carrier FMF patients in remission with the main MEFV mutation patterns M694V/V726A- the prevalent MEFV gene mutation within FMF patients in the Armenian cohort. Our data revealed that M694V/V726A mutations in PURIN inflammasome leading to FMF disease brought to gender specific differences in microbial community structure in FMF patients. Possibly, long-term colchicine use suppresses the PURIN inflammasome/inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent IL-1β release influencing on overgrowth of C. albicans in gut microbiota of FMF patients. The comparison of Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) of enteric bacteria in C. albicans-carrier and non-carrier female patients revealed the statistically significant increase in OTUs of enterobacteria in C. albicans-carriers. In contrast to this, there were no differences in abundance of Enteroccocus faecalis between female FMF C. albicans-carriers compared with non-carriers, while male FMF C. albicans-carriers have increased abundance of E. faecalis in their gut microbiota compared with that of male patients with none carriers. The gut microbiota of FMF patients (both male and female) with C. albicans below baseline level contains high abundance of lactobacilli compared with C. albicans-carriers. The adoption of Lactobacillus acidophilus INMIA 9602 Er 317/402 leads to changes in gut microbiota composition of FMF patients. It reduces, in particularly, the abundance of enterobacteria in females, and Enteroccocus faecalis in men parallel with reducing the numbers of yeast in gut microbiota of FMF patients. We hypothesize that colchicine treatment changes the already-altered gut microbiota of FMF patients, thereby affecting the regulation of immune system by inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome. Colchicine could lead to overgrowth of C. albicans in gut microbiota of FMF patients, whereas the Lactobacillus acidophilus INMIA 9602 Er 317/402 works on activation of inflammasome by new changes in gut microbiota of patients.

Project description:The understanding of the effects of compounds on the gut microbiome is limited and in particular we don’t know whether structurally similar compounds have similar or distinct effects on the gut microbiome. Here we selected berberine (BBR), an isoquinoline quaternary alkaloid, and sixteen structural analogues, and evaluated their effects on in vitro cultured individual gut microbiomes. The responses of the individual microbiomes were evaluated by metaproteomic profiles and by assessing butyrate production. BBR and eight analogues led to changes in proteins involved in microbial defense and stress responses, and enrichment of proteins from Verrumicrobia, Proteobacteria and Bacteroides phyla. It also led to a decrease in proteins from the Firmicutes phylum and its Clostridiales order which correlated to decrease proteins involved in the butyrate production pathway and butyrate concentration. Three of the compounds, Sanguinarine, Chelerythrine and Ethoxysanguinarine activated bacterial protective mechanisms, enriched Proteobacteria, increased opacity proteins and markedly reduced butyrate production. Dihydroberberine had a similar function to BBR in enriching the Akkermansia genus. In addition, it showed less overall adverse impacts on the functionality of the gut microbiome, including a better maintenance of the butyrate level. Our study shows that ex vivo microbiome assay can assess differential regulating effects of compounds with subtle differences and reveals that compound analogues can have distinct effects on the microbiome.

Project description:Major depressive disorder is caused by gene-environment interactions and the gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in the development of depression. However, the mechanisms by which the gut microbiota modulates depression remain elusive. Herein, we detected the differentially expressed hippocampal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) between mice inoculated with gut microbiota from major depressive disorder patients or healthy controls, to identify the effects of gut microbiota-dysbiosis on gene regulation patterns at the transcriptome level. We also performed functional analysis to explore the microbial-regulated pathological mechanisms of depression. Two hundred mRNAs, 358 lncRNAs and 4 miRNAs were differentially expressed between the two groups. Functional analysis of these differentially expressed mRNAs indicated dysregulated inflammatory response to be the primary pathological change. Intersecting the differentially expressed mRNAs with targets of differentially expressed miRNAs identified 47 intersected mRNAs, which were mainly related to neurodevelopment. Additionally, we constructed a microbial-regulated lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on RNA-RNA interactions. According to the competitive endogenous RNA hypothesis, two neurodevelopmental ceRNA sub-networks implicating in depression were identified. This study provides new understanding of the pathogenesis of depression induced by gut microbiota-dysbiosis and may act as a theoretical basis for the development of gut microbiota-based antidepressants.

Project description:We have previously demonstrated that the gut microbiota can play a role in the pathogenesis of conditions associated with exposure to environmental pollutants. It is well accepted that diets high in fermentable fibers such as inulin can beneficially modulate the gut microbiota and lessen the severity of pro-inflammatory diseases. Therefore, we aimed to test the hypothesis that hyperlipidemic mice fed a diet enriched with inulin would be protected from the pro-inflammatory toxic effects of PCB 126.

Project description:Background: Hypertension is one of the most common metabolic diseases in the elderly and its pathogenesis is associated with microbiota dysbiosis. Recent evidence suggests that oral microbiota dysbiosis is also an important factor in the development of hypertension. However, the relationship between hypertension and oral flora in the elderly has not been adequately investigated. Objective: The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the structure of the oral microbiota and its correlation with hypertension in elderly hypertensive patients. To provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of hypertension. Methods: 206 subjects aged 60 ~ 89 years were selected and divided into normal (CON) and hypertensive (HTN) groups, according to the 2018 Chinese Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension. The oral microbiome composition of saliva samples was determined by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Results: Although there was no significant difference in α and β diversity between the two groups, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were the most important factors influencing the structure of the oral microbiota. At the phylum level, the relative abundance of the spirochete phylum and the mutualistic bacterial phylum was higher in the HT group than in the CON group (p < 0.05). Diastolic blood pressure was negatively correlated with Streptococcus. Furthermore, we analyzed HTN patients with 120 mmHg<systolic blood pressure<160 mmHg and systolic blood pressure>160 mmHg separately and found that the abundance of Saccharibacteria_(TM7) was significantly increased in the HTN_2 group. Conclusions: Our study identified specific oral microbiota in elderly hypertensive patients, confirming the relationship between oral microbiota and hypertension. This enhances our understanding of the important role of oral microbiota in the pathogenesis of hypertension and accumulates more evidence for microbial involvement in the development of hypertension.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease in middle-aged and elderly people. The disorder of gut microbiota is involved in the pathophysiological process of various neurological diseases, and many studies have confirmed that gut microbiota is involved in the progression of PD. As one of the most effective methods to reconstruct gut microbiota, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been considered as an important treatment for PD. However, the mechanism of FMT treatment for PD is still lacking, which requires further exploration and can facilitate the application of FMT. As a model organism, Drosophila is highly conserved with mammalian system in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. In this study, there were significant differences in the gut microbiota of conventional Drosophila colonized from PD patients compared to those transplanted from normal controls. And we constructed rotenone-induced PD model in Drosophila followed by FMT in different groups, and investigated the impact of gut microbiome on transcriptome of the PD host. Microbial analysis by 16S rDNA sequencing showed that gut microbiota could affect bacterial structure of PD, which was confirmed by bacterial colonization results. In addition, transcriptome data suggested that gut microbiota can influence gene expression pattern of PD. Further experimental validations confirmed that lysosome and neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction are the most significantly influenced functional pathways by PD-derived gut microbiota. In summary, our data reveals the influence of PD-derived gut microbiota on host transcriptome and helps better understanding the interaction between gut microbiota and PD through gut-brain axis. The present study will facilitate the understanding of the mechanism underlying PD treatment with FMT in clinical practice.
