Project description:Approximately 15% of US adults have circulating levels of uric acid above its solubility limit, which is causally linked to the inflammatory disease gout. In most mammals, uric acid elimination is facilitated by the enzyme uricase. However, human uricase is a pseudogene, having been inactivated early in hominid evolution. Though it has long been known that a substantial amount of uric acid is eliminated in the gut, the role of the gut microbiota in hyperuricemia has not been studied. Here we identify a gene cluster, widely distributed in the gut microbiome, that encodes a pathway for uric acid degradation. Stable isotope tracing demonstrates that gut bacteria metabolize uric acid to xanthine or short chain fatty acids such as acetate, lactate and butyrate. Ablation of the microbiota in uricase-deficient mice causes profound hyperuricemia, and anaerobe-targeted antibiotics increase the risk of gout in humans. These data reveal a role for the gut microbiota in uric acid excretion and highlight the potential for microbiome-targeted therapeutics in hyperuricemia.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is the 3rd most prevalent cause of cancer related deaths in United states alone, with over 55000 patients being diagnosed in 2019 alone and nearly as many succumbing to it. Late detection, lack of effective therapy and poor understanding of pancreatic cancer systemically contributes to its poor survival statistics. Obesity and high caloric intake linked co-morbidities like type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been attributed as being risk factors for a number of cancers including pancreatic cancer. Studies on gut microbiome has shown that lifestyle factors as well as diet has a huge effect on the microbial flora of the gut. Further, modulation of gut microbiome has been seen to contribute to effects of intensive insulin therapy in mice on high fat diet. In another study, abnormal gut microbiota was reported to contribute to development of diabetes in Db/Db mice. Recent studies indicate that microbiome and microbial dysbiosis plays a role in not only the onset of disease but also in its outcome. In colorectal cancer, Fusobacterium has been reported to promote therapy resistance. Certain intra-tumoral bacteria have also been shown to elicit chemo-resistance by metabolizing anti-cancerous agents. In pancreatic cancer, studies on altered gut microbiome have been relatively recent. Microbial dysbiosis has been observed to be associated with pancreatic tumor progression. Modulation of microbiome has been shown to affect response to anti-PD1 therapy in this disease as well. However, most of the studies in pancreatic cancer and microbiome have remained focused om immune modulation. In the current study, we observed that in a T2D mouse model, the microbiome changed significantly as the hyperglycemia developed in these animals. Our results further showed that, tumors implanted in the T2D mice responded poorly to Gemcitabine/Paclitaxel (Gem/Pac) standard of care compared to those in the control group. A metabolomic reconstruction of the WGS of the gut microbiota further revealed that an enrichment of bacterial population involved in drug metabolism in the T2D group.

Project description:The mammalian gut harbors a diverse microbial community (gut microbiota) that mainly consists of bacteria. Their combined genomes (the microbiome) provide biochemical and metabolic functions that complement host physiology. Maintaining symbiosis seems to be a key requirement for health as dysbiosis is associated with the development of common diseases. Previous studies indicated that the microbiota and the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys epithelium signal bidirectional inducing transcriptional responses to fine-tune and maintain symbiosis. However, little is known about the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys responses to the microbiota along the length of the gut as earlier studies of gut microbial ecology mostly used either colonic or fecal samples. This is of importance as not only function and architecture of the gut varies along its length but also microbial distribution and diversity. Few recent studies have begun to investigate microbiota-induced host responses along the length of the gut. However, these reports used whole tissue samples and therefore do not allow drawing conclusions about specificity of the observed responses. Which cells in the intestinal tissue are responsible for the microbially induced response: epithelial, mesenchymal or immune cells? Where are the responding cells located? Furthermore, the gut microbiota has been implicated in epigenetic regulation of the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys transcriptional profile. We used using extensive microarray analysis of laser capture microdissection (LCM) harvested ileal and colonic tip and crypt fractions from germ-free mice before and during the time course of colonization with a normal microbiota (on days 1, 3, 5 and 7) to investigate the microbiota-induced transcriptional responses and their kinetics in specific and well-defined cell populations of the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys epithelium. Ileum and colon segments were dissected from germ-free 10-12 weeks old female C57Bl/6 mice and on day 1, 3, 5 and 7 after colonization, washed and frozen as OCT blocks. Cryosections were prepared from these OCT blocks and tip/crypt fractions isolated using laser capture microdissection. To investigate the microbiota-induced transcriptional responses specific for specific subpopulations of intestinal epithelial cells and their kinetics, tip and crypt fractions of ileal and colonic epithelium of germ-free 10-12 weeks old female C57Bl/6 mice before and during the time course of colonization with a normal microbiota (on days 1, 3, 5 and 7) were harvested using laser capture microdissection and probed in an extensive microarray analysis.

Project description:The role of environmental factors and gender disparities as determinants of health is incontrovertible. In the digestive sphere, it is noteworthy that one of the most prevalent diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has a predominance in females. The origin of IBS is related to mucosal microinflammation phenomena, psychosocial stress, and in the last years, alterations in gut microbiota. Recent observations from our group in healthy subjects, demonstrate that both chronic psychosocial stress, and female gender per se determine a significant intestinal epithelial barrier dysfunction in response to intercurrent stimuli, which, in susceptible individuals, could result in an early stage in the development of more lasting changes and the onset of clinical manifestations of IBS. Although the intimate mechanisms involved in stress-induced intestinal pathophysiology are not well known, diverse studies suggest that gut microbiota alteration, through epigenetic modifications of the main stress-mediators could be one of them. However, solid scientific evidence demonstrating the influence of stress on gut microbiota and epigenetics of the main stress-mediators is missing. Therefore, we want to investigate and characterize gender-dependent epigenetic modifications involved in intestinal barrier dysfunction in response to acute stress. The identification of gender-dependent abnormal epigenetic patterns related to female gender dysfunction can make a breakthrough in the understanding of the pathophysiology of the regulation of intestinal permeability, and promote positive diagnostic and therapeutic future progress in IBS.

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:Insect gut microbiota plays important roles in acquiring nutrition, preventing pathogens infection, immune responses, and communicating with the environment. Gut microbiota can be affected by some external factors such as foods, temperature, and antibiotics. Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an important destructive pest of grain crops all over the world. The function of gut microbiota in S. frugiperda remains to be investigated. In this study, we fed the S. frugiperda with the antibiotic mixture (penicillin, gentamicin, rifampicin, and streptomycin) to perturb the gut microbiota, and further examined the effect of dysbiosis in gut microbiota on the gene expression of S. frugiperda by RNA sequencing. We found the composition and diversity of the gut bacterial community were changed in S. frugiperda after antibiotics treatmen, and the expression of genes related to energy and metabolic process were affected after antibiotics exposure in S. frugiperda. Our work will help understand the role of gut microbiota in insects.

Project description:Obesity is a leading cause of primary hypertension in children, and a high-fat intake and the gut microbiota may be involved in the pathogenesis of obesity-related hypertension (OrHTN), but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we show that high-fat diet (HFD) feeding alters the gut microbiota composition in OrHTN rats, resulting in a reduced abundance of the butyrate-producing bacteria Ruminococcus and a subsequent decrease in plasma butyrate levels. Histone 3 lysine 9 butyrylation (H3K9bu) levels decreased in the kidneys of OrHTN rats, which downregulates the expression of the hypertension-related MAS1 gene. Furthermore, sodium butyrate affected H3K9bu modification levels in a concentration-dependent manner, with decreased H3K9bu and downregulated MAS1 expression at low concentrations in human proximal tubular epithelial cells. Our results suggest that a HFD contributes to the development of OrHTN by altering the gut microbiota and its metabolites, leading to the downregulation of H3K9bu and hypertension-related gene expression.
