Comparing the effects of microbiota-directed therapeutic foods in gnotobiotic mice, gnotobiotic piglets and undernourished children

ABSTRACT: We illustrate an approach for integrating preclinical gnotobiotic animal models with human studies to understand the contributions of perturbed gut microbiota development to childhood undernutrition, and to identify new microbiota-directed therapeutic concepts/leads. Combining metabolomic and proteomic analyses of serially collected plasma samples with metagenomic analyses of serially collected fecal samples, we characterized the biological state of Bangladeshi children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) as they transitioned to moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) after standard treatment. Gnotobiotic mice were subsequently colonized with a defined consortium of bacterial strains representing different stages of microbiota development in healthy children from Bangladesh. Administering different combinations of Bangladeshi complementary food ingredients to colonized mice and germ-free controls revealed diet-dependent changes in representation and metabolism of targeted weaning-phase strains, including accompanying increases in branched-chain amino acids, plus diet- and colonization-dependent augmentation of IGF-1/mTOR signaling. Host and microbial effects of microbiota-directed complementary food (MDCF) prototypes were subsequently examined in gnotobiotic mice colonized with post-SAM MAM microbiota and in gnotobiotic piglets colonized with a defined consortium of targeted age- and growth-discriminatory bacteria. Finally, ar andomized, double-blind study revealed a lead MDCF that affected the representation of targeted bacterial taxa and increased levels of biomarkers and mediators of growth, bone formation, neurodevelopment, and immune function.

Effects of the human intestinal bacterium Eggerthella lenta on the liver proteome of gnotobiotic mice.

Project description:In this study, the minimal consortium Oligo-Mouse Microbiota (OMM)12 was used to study the function of Coriobacteriia under defined conditions in gnotobiotic mice. OMM12 mice with or without adding the dominant gut bacterium Eggerthella lenta were fed with diets varying in fat content or supplemented with primary bile acids. Changes in the host liver proteomes were studied using untargeted proteomics.

Functional characterization of inflammatory bowel disease-associated gut dysbiosis in gnotobiotic mice

Project description:Gut dysbiosis is closely involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, it remains unclear whether IBD-associated gut dysbiosis plays a primary role in disease manifestation or is merely secondary to intestinal inflammation. Here, we established a humanized gnotobiotic (hGB) mouse system to assess the functional role of gut dysbiosis associated with two types of IBD - Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). In order to explore the functional impact of dysbiotic microbiota in IBD patients on host immune responses, we analyzed gene expression profiles in colonic mucosa of hGB mice colonized with healty (HC), CD, and UC microbiota.

The impact of a consortium of fermented milk strains on the gut microbiome of gnotobiotic mice and monozygotic twins. (COPRO-Seq)

Project description:Understanding how the human gut microbiota and host are impacted by probiotic bacterial strains requires carefully controlled studies in humans, and in mouse models of the gut ecosystem where potentially confounding variables that are difficult to control in humans can be constrained. Therefore, we characterized the fecal microbiomes and metatranscriptomes of adult female monozygotic twin pairs through repeated sampling 4 weeks prior to, 7 weeks during, and 4 weeks following consumption of a commercially-available fermented milk product (FMP) containing a consortium of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis, two strains of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, and Streptococcus thermophilus. In addition, gnotobiotic mice harboring a 15-species model human gut microbiota whose genomes contain 58,399 known or predicted protein-coding genes were studied prior to and after gavage with all five sequenced FMP strains. 140 samples total. Evaluation of changes in a model community's structure over time after exposure to a consortium of 5 fermented milk product (FMP) strains.

Commensal bacteria protect against food allergen sensitization

Project description:Analysis of colonic epithelial cell gene expression in germ-free, Bacteroides uniformis-colonized, and Clostridia-colonized gnotobiotic mice. Bacteria were isolated from our SPF mouse facility and were used to selectively colonize germ-free mice. Germ free mice were left germ free or were colonized with Bacteroides uniformis or a consortium of Clostridia. Total RNA was extraced from colonic epithelial cells.

To determine transcriptome of gnotobiotic mice fed fiber-rich and fiber-free diets

Project description:Despite accepted health benefits of dietary fiber, little is known about the mechanisms by which fiber deprivation impacts the gut microbiota and alters disease risk. Using a gnotobiotic model, in which mice were colonized with a synthetic human gut microbiota, we elucidated the functional interactions between dietary fiber, the gut microbiota and the colonic mucus barrier, which serves as a primary defence against pathogens. We show that during chronic or intermittent dietary fiber deficiency, the gut microbiota resorts to host-secreted mucus glycoproteins as a nutrient source, leading to erosion of the colonic mucus barrier. Dietary fiber deprivation promoted greater epithelial access and lethal colitis by the mucosal pathogen, Citrobacter rodentium, but only in the presence of a fiber-deprived microbiota that is pushed to degrade the mucus layer. Our work reveals intricate pathways linking diet, gut microbiome and intestinal barrier dysfunction, which could be exploited to improve health using dietary therapeutics. Germ-free mice (Swiss Webster) were colonized with synthetic human gut microbiota comprising of 14 species belonging to five different phyla (names of bacterial species: Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Bacteroides ovatus, Bacteroides caccae, Bacteroides uniformis, Barnesiella intestinihominis, Eubacterium rectale, Marvinbryantia formatexigens, Collinsella aerofaciens, Escherichia coli HS, Clostridium symbiosum, Desulfovibrio piger, Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Roseburia intestinalis). These mice were fed either a fiber-rich diet or a fiber-free diet for about 6 weeks. The mice were then sacrificed and their cecal tissues were immediately flash frozen for RNA extraction. The extracted RNA was subjected to microarray analysis based on Mouse Gene ST 2.1 strips using the Affy Plus kit. Expression values for each gene were calculated using robust multi-array average (RMA) method.
