Project description:Study comparing the effects on APAP, high fat diet and gut microbiome composition on urine, serum and colonic content/fecal metabolomes from male C57BL6/J mice. Microbiome conditions include mice that were germ-free (GF), fecal microbiota colonized (convention mouse FMT) and conventional mice with gentamicin or vancomycin shifted gut microbiomes. LC-MS/MS data acquisition was completed in positive and/or negative ionization mode.

Project description:Purpose: Gut microbiota-derived metabolites play a pivotal role in the maintenance of local gut homeostasis and can even induce systemic effects via accumulation in the bloodstream. Here, we demonstrate that mono-colonization of germ-free (GF) mice with Clostridium sporogenes protects mice from inflamation and death induced by DSS colitis. Method: 8-12-week-old male mice (GF, SPF and GF colonized with C. sporogenes (CS)) were treated with 2.5% DSS in drinking water for 5 days and colon tissue was isolated on day 7. RNA was isolated from the colon tissue and RNA sequenzing was performed. Results: Mono-colonization of GF mice with Clostridium sporogenes protected the mice from DSS colitis induced death, while producing high amounts of indole-3-propionic acid (IPA), branched chain (BCFA) and short-chain (SCFA) fatty acids. In comparison to CS mice, SPF mice showed much higher levels of inflammatory related genes and a worse histological score. Conclusion: Histological stainings and the RNAseq both showed high levels of protection of C. sporogenes colonized mice in colitis, compared to SPF and GF animals. The data provide evidence for a therapeutic potential of C. sporogenes for IBD patients.

Project description:Lactobacillus NK2 (L.NK2) is a commensal microbe, isolated from the mouse intestinal feces in our lab. To examine the potential role of L. NK2 in the gut immunity, we monocolonized GF mice with L.NK2. And, we conducted a microarray experiment to compare the transcriptomes of GF and L.NK2-colonized mice intestines under the same experimental condition We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) and Peyer's patches cells (PP) of GF and L.NK2-colonized mice.

Project description:While microbiome and pregnancy are known to alter drug disposition, the interplay of the two physiological factors to impact expression and/or activity of drug processing genes (DPGs) has yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the effects of microbiome on host hepatic DPGs during pregnancy using conventional (CV) and germ-free (GF) mice. Four groups of female mice were used, namely CV non-pregnant (CVNP), GF non-pregnant (GFNP), CV pregnant (CVP), and GF pregnant (GFP) mice. Pregnant mice examined were on gestation day 15. Transcriptomic and targeted proteomics of hepatic DPGs were profiled using a multi-omics approach. Plasma bile acid and steroid hormone levels were quantified using LC-MS/MS. Cyp3a activities were measured by mouse liver microsome incubations. While the overall trend in pregnancy-induced changes in the expression or activity of hepatic DPGs in CV and GF mice was similar, significant differences in the magnitude of changes were observed. For certain genes, we noticed opposite effects of pregnancy on mRNA and protein expression of DPGs in both CV and GF mice. For instance, the mRNA levels of Cyp3a11, the murine homolog of human CYP3A4, were decreased by 1.7-fold and 3.3-fold by pregnancy in CV and GF mice, respectively. However, the protein levels of Cyp3a11 were increased similarly ~2-fold by pregnancy in both CV and GF mice. Yet, microsome incubations revealed a marked induction of Cyp3a activity by pregnancy that was >5-fold greater in CV mice than that in GF mice. Plasma bile acid and steroid hormone levels were also significantly altered by microbiome and pregnancy, respectively, which may contribute to the differential effects of pregnancy in CV and GF mice. This is the first study to show that microbiome can alter hepatic DPGs in pregnancy.

Project description:Maturation of the gut microbiota coincides with neurodevelopmental processes such as myelination, essential for efficient neural signal transmission. While its role in adult prefrontal cortex (PFC) myelination is known, effects on early-life myelin formation, growth, and integrity remain unclear. Here, we track gene expression in the PFC of germ-free (GF) and non-germ-free (conventional) mice. Alongside metabolomics (HP/LC) from the same region across early life development, in males and females. Metabolomics data available here <URL PLACEHOLDER> In GF mice, we observed sex- and age-dependent alterations in pathways linked to neuronal activity and myelination, with myelin-related transcriptomic changes correlating with functional shifts in neurotransmission- and metabolism-related metabolites over time. Myelin growth and integrity were also affected in a sex- and time-dependent manner. As microglia regulate neuronal activity and engulf myelin, we examined microbiota-microglia interactions and found altered expression of genes involved in microglia maturation and synaptic pruning in both species. In zebrafish larvae, the microbiota influenced the spatial distribution of microglia and oligodendrocytes within the brain and spinal cord. These findings reveal conserved microbiota-mediated modulation of neuronal activity, myelination, and glial maturation in early life, providing a foundation for future studies into these mechanisms.

Project description:<p>Emerging evidence suggests a significant role of gut microbiome in bone health. Aging is well recognized as a crucial factor influencing the gut microbiome. In this study, we investigated whether age-dependent microbial change contributes to age-related bone loss in CB6F1 mice. The bone phenotype of 24-month-old germ-free (GF) mice were indistinguishable compared to their littermates colonized by fecal transplant at 1-month-old. Moreover, bone loss from 3 to 24-month-old was comparable between GF and specific pathogen-free (SPF) mice. Thus, GF mice were not protected from age-related bone loss. 16S rRNA gene sequencing of fecal samples from 3-month and 24-month-old SPF males indicated an age-dependent microbial shift with an alteration in energy and nutrient metabolism potential. An integrative analysis of 16S predicted metagenome function and LC-MS fecal metabolome revealed an enrichment of protein and amino acid biosynthesis pathways in aged mice. Microbial S-adenosyl methionine metabolism was increased in the aged mice, which has previously been associated with the host aging process. Collectively, aging caused microbial taxonomic and functional alteration in mice. To functionally prove that the young and old microbiome impacts differently on the bone, we colonized GF mice with fecal microbiome from 3-month or 24-month-old SPF donor mice for 1 and 8 months. The effect of microbial colonization on bone phenotypes was independent of the microbiome donors' age. In conclusion, our study indicates age-related bone loss occurs independent of gut microbiome.</p>
