Project description:CS Baby Biome randomized control trial aims to investigate if the timing of intrapartum antibiotics given to mother influences the infant gut microbiome composition. The study was performed in women delivering via elective CS, who received antibiotics prior to skin incision, or after umbilical cord clamping.

Project description:To extend our understanding of bifidobacterial mutualism and carbohydrate syntrophy in the gut we adopted advanced functional genomics to create single- and double-deletion isogenic strains of the NagA encoding genes of B. breve UCC2003. The resulting strains were examined, as compared to the parent strain, for their ability to metabolise particular host derived carbohydrates. In addition, the B. breve strains were examined for their crossfeeding capability and ability to establish, in the presence of B. bifidum ATCC29521, in the gut of dam fed neonatal mice.
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:This project investigates the impact of different delivery modes and labor on maternal and neonatal health by analyzing 40 participants, including 16 spontaneous vaginal deliveries (VD), 16 prelabor cesarean deliveries (CS), and 8 intrapartum cesarean sections (Intra_CS). Using label-free proteomics and untargeted metabolomics, both amniotic fluid and cord blood samples were analyzed respectively to identify variations in protein and metabolite profiles associated with the mode of delivery. The study aims to uncover biological pathways influenced by labor and delivery mode, providing insights into how these factors shape maternal and neonatal outcomes, with implications for improving perinatal care and long-term health strategies.
Project description:Commensal bacteria have been shown to influence the reactivity of immune cells in the gut and in other organs. This study aims to assess the impact of microbiota on transcription signatures in lung stroma cells. Samples were generated from mice that were either left on plain water, on water with antibiotics, or on water with antibiotics followed by faecal transplant to reverse the antibiotics effect. CD45 negative cells were MACS-purified from the lung, and RNA seq was performed on samples.
