Project description:In the current study, five late gestation multiparous ewes were restricted to a 30% feeding level to create a model of malnutrition, while five other ewes were fed normally as controls. All ewes were sacrificed and cecal samples were collected for transcriptome sequencing to study metabolic changes.

Project description:Undernutrition may change cecal microbiota-epithelium interactions to influence cecal feed fermentation, nutrient absorption and metabolism, and immune function. Sixteen late-gestation Hu-sheep were randomly divided into control (normal feeding) and treatment (feed restriction) groups to establish an undernourished sheep model. Cecal digesta and epithelium were collected to analyze microbiota-host interactions based on 16S rRNA gene and transcriptome sequencing. Results showed that cecal weight and pH were decreased, volatile fatty acids and microbial proteins concentrations were increased, and epithelial morphology was changed upon undernutrition. Undernutrition reduced the diversity, richness, and evenness of cecal microbiota. The relative abundances of cecal genera involved in acetate production (Rikenellaceae dgA-11 gut group, Rikenellaceae RC9 gut group, and Ruminococcus) and negatively correlated with butyrate proportion (Clostridia vadinBB60 group_norank) were decreased, while genera related to butyrate (Oscillospiraceae_uncultured and Peptococcaceae_uncultured) and valerate (Peptococcaceae_uncultured) production were increased in undernourished ewes. These findings were consistent with the decreased molar proportion of acetate and the increased molar proportions of butyrate and valerate. Undernutrition changed the overall transcriptional profile and substance transport and metabolism in cecal epithelium. Undernutrition suppressed extracellular matrix-receptor interaction and intracellular phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway then disrupted biological processes in cecal epithelium. Moreover, undernutrition repressed phagosome antigen processing and presentation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, and intestinal immune network. In conclusion, undernutrition affected cecal microbial diversity and composition and fermentation parameters, inhibited extracellular matrix-receptor interaction and the PI3K signaling pathway, and then disrupted epithelial proliferation and renewal and intestinal immune functions. Our findings exposed cecal microbiota-host interactions upon undernutrition and contribute to their further exploration. IMPORTANCE Undernutrition is commonly encountered in ruminant production, especially during pregnancy and lactation in females. Undernutrition not only induces metabolic diseases and threatens pregnant mothers' health, but also inhibits fetal growth and development, leading to weakness or even death of fetuses. Cecum works importantly in hindgut fermentation, providing volatile fatty acids and microbial proteins to the organism. Intestinal epithelial tissue plays a role in nutrient absorption and transport, barrier function, and immune function. However, little is known about cecal microbiota and epithelium interactions upon undernutrition. Our findings showed that undernutrition affected bacterial structures and functions, which changed fermentation parameters and energy regimens, and therefore affected the substance transport and metabolism in cecal epithelium. Extracellular matrix-receptor interactions were inhibited, which repressed cecal epithelial morphology and cecal weight via the PI3K signaling pathway and lowered immune response function upon undernutrition. These findings will help in further exploring microbe-host interactions.

Project description:Transcriptomics and functional bioinformatics were used to investigate the potential interactions of undernutrition and the presence of the conceptus at the time of maternal recognition of pregnancy on uterine indicators of metabolism and reproduction. Adult Rasa Aragonesa ewes were allocated to one of two planes of nutrition during 28 days: maintenance energy intake (control; 5 cyclic, 6 pregnant ewes) providing 7.8 MJ of metabolisable energy per ewe and 0.5 maintenance intake (undernourished; 6 cyclic, 7 pregnant ewes) providing 3.9 MJ of metabolisable energy per ewe. RNA from uterine tissue was harvested at slaughter on day 14 of estrus or pregnancy, and hybridized to the Agilent 15K Sheep Microarray chip. Functional bioinformatics analyses were performed using the Dynamic Impact Approach (DIA) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis. Among metabolic pathways, citrate cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, pentose and glucuronate interconversions and biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids were upregulated in control pregnant compared with control cyclic ewes. However, these pathways were not altered in undernourished ewes. The presence of an embryo in undernourished ewes upregulated fatty acid and glycogenic amino acid metabolism. RIG-I and Toll like receptors and chemokine signaling pathways were upregulated by the presence of the embryo in both control and undernourished ewes, but in the latter group the impact was lower. Undernutrition alone upregulated carbohydrate metabolism, but different pathways were altered in cyclic versus pregnant ewes. Citrate cycle, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and pentose and glucuronate interconversions were upregulated in undernourished cyclic compared with control cyclic ewes. Glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, pyruvate and propanoate metabolism, beta-alanine and phenylalanine metabolism were upregulated in undernourished pregnant compared with control pregnant ewes, whereas biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids and replication and repair were downregulated. Undernutrition alone led to an overall weak activation of immune system pathways both in cyclic and pregnant ewes. However, undernourished cyclic compared with control cyclic ewes had a high activation of NOD-like and RIG-1 like receptor signaling pathways, whereas undernourished pregnant compared with control pregnant ewes only had a weak upregulation of T cell receptor signaling pathways. Overall, data revealed that metabolic and immune adaptations of the uterus to nutrient restriction are dependent on the presence of the conceptus.

Project description:In utero undernutrition is associated with obesity and insulin resistance, although its effect on skeletal muscle remains poorly defined. We report that, in mice, adult offspring from undernourished dams have decreased energy expenditure, decreased skeletal muscle mitochondrial content, and altered energetics in isolated mitochondria and permeabilized muscle fibers. Strikingly, when these mice are put on a 40% calorie restricted diet they lose half as much weight as calorie restricted controls. Our results reveal for the first time that in utero undernutrition alters metabolic physiology having a profound effect on skeletal muscle energetics and response to calorie restriction in adulthood.

Project description:The interplay between the intestinal microbiota and host is critical to intestinal ontogeny and homeostasis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) may be an underlying link. Intestinal miRNAs are microbiota-dependent and when shed in the lumen, affect resident microorganisms. Yet, longitudinal relationships between intestinal tissue miRNAs, luminal miRNAs, and luminal microorganisms have not been elucidated, especially in early life. Here, we investigated the postnatal cecal miRNA and microbiota populations, their relationship, and their impact on intestinal maturation in specific and opportunistic pathogen free mice; we also assessed if they can be modified by an intervention with allochthonous probiotic lactobacilli. We report that cecal and cecal content miRNA and microbiota signatures are temporally regulated, correlated, and modifiable by probiotics with implications for intestinal maturation. These findings help with understanding causal relationships within the gut ecosystem and provide a basis for preventing and managing their alterations in diseases throughout life.
