Project description:Rationale: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infections and hospitalizations in infants worldwide. Known risk factors, however, incompletely explain the variability of RSV disease severity among children. We postulate that severity of RSV infection is influenced in part by modulation of the host immune response by the local microbial ecosystem at the time of infection. Objectives: To define whether different nasopharyngeal microbiota profiles are associated with distinct host transcriptome profiles and severity in children with RSV infection. Methods: We analyzed the nasopharyngeal microbiota profiles of young children with mild and severe RSV disease and healthy matched controls by 16S-rRNA sequencing. In parallel, we analyzed whole blood gene expression profiles to study the relationship between microbial community composition, the RSV-induced host transcriptional response and clinical disease severity. Measurements and Main results: We identified five nasopharyngeal microbiota profiles characterized by enrichment of H. influenzae, Streptococcus, Corynebacterium, Moraxella or S. aureus. RSV infection and RSV hospitalization were positively associated with H. influenzae and Streptococcus, and negatively associated with S. aureus abundance, independent of age. The host response to RSV was defined by overexpression of interferon-related genes, and this was independent of the microbiota composition. On the other hand, transcriptome profiles of RSV infected children with H. influenzae and Streptococcus-dominated microbiota were characterized by greater overexpression of genes linked to toll-like receptor-signaling and neutrophil activation and were more frequently hospitalized Conclusions: Our data suggest an immunomodulatory role for the resident nasopharyngeal microbial community early in RSV infection, potentially affecting RSV disease severity.

Project description:Viral infections are among the most common causes for fever without an apparent source (FWS) in young children; however, many febrile children are treated with antibiotics despite the absence of bacterial infection. Adenovirus, human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and enterovirus are detected in children with FWS more often than other viral species. Virus and bacteria interact with pattern recognition receptors in circulating blood leukocytes and trigger specific host transcriptional programs that mediate immune response, and unique transcriptional signatures may be ascertained to discriminate between viral and bacterial causes for children with FWS. Microarray analyses were conducted on peripheral blood samples obtained from 51 pediatric patients with confirmed adenovirus, human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), enterovirus or bacterial infection. Whole blood transcriptional profiles could clearly distinguish febrile children from healthy controls, and febrile children with viral infections from afebrile children carrying the same virus. Molecular pathways regulating host immune response were the most affected in febrile children with infection. Pattern recognition programs were prominently activated in all febrile children with infection, while differential activation of transcriptional programs was observed among viral species. Interferon signaling pathway was uniquely activated in children with febrile viral infection, while a different set of pathways was uniquely activated in children with bacterial infection. Transcriptional signatures were identified and classified febrile children with viral or bacterial infection with 87% overall accuracy, an improvement from the current clinical practice of deducing from white blood cell (WBC) count status. Similar degree of accuracy was observed when we validated the signature probes on data sets from an independent study with different microarray platforms. The current study confirms the clinical utility of blood transcriptional analysis, suggests the composition of transcriptional signatures which can be used to ascertain the infectious etiology of febrile young children without an apparent source, thus limit the overuse of antibiotics on febrile children presenting with this common clinical complaint. Total RNA samples extracted from whole blood of young children were processed for hybridization onto Illumina Human-HT12 version 4 beadchips, and differential expression of the transcripts was analyzed between sick children with either viral or bacterial infection and healthy children.

Project description:To explore the effects of gut microbiota of young (8 weeks) or old mice (18～20 months) on stroke, feces of young (Y1-Y9) and old mice (O6-O16) were collected and analyzed by 16s rRNA sequencing. Then stroke model was established on young mouse receive feces from old mouse (DOT1-15) and young mouse receive feces from young mouse (DYT1-15). 16s rRNA sequencing were also performed for those young mice received feces from young and old mice.

Project description:Advanced age is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, which is usually referred to as inflammaging. Elderly are also known to have an altered gut microbiota composition. However, whether inflammaging is a cause or consequence of an altered gut microbiota composition is not clear. In this study gut microbiota from young or old conventional mice was transferred to young germ-free mice. Four weeks after gut microbiota transfer immune cell populations in spleen, Peyer’s patches, and mesenteric lymph nodes from conventionalized germ-free mice were analyzed by flow cytometry. In addition, whole-genome gene expression in the ileum was analyzed by microarray. Gut microbiota composition of donor and recipient mice was analyzed with 16S rDNA sequencing. Here we show by transferring aged microbiota to young germ-free mice that certain bacterial species within the aged microbiota promote inflammaging. This effect was associated with lower levels of Akkermansia and higher levels of TM7 bacteria and Proteobacteria in the aged microbiota after transfer. The aged microbiota promoted inflammation in the small intestine in the germ-free mice and enhanced leakage of inflammatory bacterial components into the circulation was observed. Moreover, the aged microbiota promoted increased T cell activation in the systemic compartment. In conclusion, these data indicate that the gut microbiota from old mice contributes to inflammaging after transfer to young germ-free mice.

Project description:We used 16S V3/V4 region amplification to evaluate the composition of bacteria species in mouse fecal pellets. Fecel pellets were collected from young-adult (12 weeks old) wild type C57Bl/6 mice and aged (72 weeks old) wild type C57Bl/6 mice after 21 days of vehicle or antibiotics treatment (to induce gut microbiota depletion). In one sequencing round, we sequenced a total of 12 different fecal samples (3 young control, 3 aged control, 3 young depleted gut microbiota (ABX) and 3 aged depleted gut microbiota (ABX)). Amplicons were indexed using the Nextera XT Index Kit and pooled into a library for Illumina sequencing.

Project description:We transplanted gut microbiota via fecal transfer from TD and ASD children into germ-free wild-type mice, and reveal that colonization with ASD microbiomes induces hallmark changes in sociability, vocalization, and stereotypies. The brains of mice receiving gut microbiota from ASD individuals display alternative splicing patterns for genes dysregulated in the human ASD brain.
