Project description:Skin wound repair constitutes a sophisticated biological process involving spatiotemporally coordinated molecular cascades, with emerging evidence highlighting the dynamic regulatory role of skin microbiota. Utilizing a broad-spectrum antibiotic-treated (ABX) murine model, we identified Prevotella copri as a core functional commensal in the wound microecosystem that orchestrates tissue regeneration through metabolite-host crosstalk. ABX-induced microbial remodeling significantly enriched P. copri relative abundance, accelerated wound closure, and upregulated pro-regenerative factors VEGF and FGF-2. Metabolomic profiling revealed that P. copri-secreted sphingosine undergoes bioconversion to C18-ceramide via the non-canonical CerS1 pathway, driving keratinocyte hyperproliferation and neoangiogenesis. Pharmacological inhibition of CerS1 with P053 suppressed ceramide synthesis and delayed healing, mechanistically validating the sphingosine-CerS1-ceramide axis. Crucially, P. copri exhibits dual regulatory modalities: ecologically, β-lactamase-mediated antibiotic resistance establishes microbial dominance, while metabolically, sphingolipid-driven spatiotemporal signaling remodels the regenerative microenvironment. This paradigm shifts the pathocentric view of wound microbiota, proposing a synergistic strategy combining "functional microbiota enrichment" and "metabolic axis targeting". Our findings elucidate a microecology-metabolism circuit that transitions wound management from passive anti-infection to precision intervention, providing a molecular blueprint for developing microbiome-reprogramming therapies in regenerative medicine.

Project description:Vancomycin is a widely prescribed antibiotic used in the treatment of Gram-positive bacterial infections. We recently showed that this antibiotic disrupted protective anti-fungal immune responses via microbiome dysbiosis, enhancing susceptibility to invasive candidiasis. Antibiotics are an independent risk factor for developing this life-threatening fungal infection, but whether microbiota-independent mechanisms also drive this association is not clear. Here, we have compared transcriptional responses of mouse bone-marrow derived macrophages at an early time point post-infection (2 hours), comparing back to baseline, using untreated or vancomycin-treated macrophages.

Project description:We analyzed the effects of antibiotics using a popular model of gut microbiota depletion in mice by a cocktail of antibiotics. We combined intestinal transcriptome together with metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiota to develop a new bioinformatics approach that probes the links between microbial components and host functions. We found that most antibiotic-induced alterations can be explained by three factors: depletion of the microbiota; direct effects of antibiotics on host tissues; and the effects of remaining antibiotic-resistant microbes. While microbe depletion led to down-regulation of immunity, the two other factors primarily inhibited mitochondrial gene expression and amounts of active mitochondria, and induced cell death. By reconstructing and analyzing a transkingdom network, we discovered that these toxic effects were mediated by virulence/quorum sensing in antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This series includes gene expression in the ileum of control, antibiotics (ABx)-treated, germfree, germfree-ABx-treated and mice colonized with normal or Abx-resistant microbiota. common reference design with a pool of small intestine RNA labeled with Cy3

Project description:For phytophagous insects, the efficiency of utilization of hemicellulose and cellulose depends on the gut microbiota. Shifts in environmental and management conditions alter the presence and abundance of plant species which may induce adaptations in the diversity of gut microbiota. To test the adaptation of the microbiota to a shift from a natural diverse to a monocultural meadow with Dactylis glomerata the highly abundant grasshopper species, Chorthippus dorsatus, was taken from the wild and kept in captivity and were fed with Dactylis glomerata for five days. The feces were collected and analyzed by metaproteomics. After the diet shift from a diverse source to the single source, the microbiota composition stays relatively stable. The Bacilli as the group of highest abundance did not change on the functional level. In contrast, pronounced shifts of amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism in Clostridia and Proteobacteria were observed. Hence, the adaptation upon short-term change of food source in this grasshopper species is dominated by functional adaptations and not by shifts in the community structure of the microbiota. This suggests that the microbiota of grasshoppers is capable to cope also with the loss of diverse feeding plants at least for a shorter time period.

Project description:The gut microbiota influences both local and systemic inflammation. Inflammation contributes to development, progression and treatment of cancer, but it remains unclear whether commensal bacteria affect inflammation in the sterile tumor microenvironment. Here we show that disruption of the microbiota impairs the response of subcutaneous tumors to CpG-oligonucleotide immunotherapy and platinum chemotherapy. In antibiotic-treated or germ-free mice, tumor-infiltrating myeloid-derived cells responded poorly to therapy, resulting in lower cytokine production and tumor necrosis after CpG-oligonucleotide treatment, and deficient production of reactive oxygen species and cytotoxicity following chemotherapy. Thus, optimal responses to cancer therapy require an intact commensal microbiota that mediates its effects by modulating myeloid-derived cell functions in the tumor microenvironment. These findings underscore the importance of the microbiota in the outcome of disease treatment. Oxaliplatin treatment induces expression of pro-inflammatory genes, which are inhibited by antibiotic pretreatment. Our goal was to ascertain the effect of antibiotic on the tumor gene expression profile prior to treatment and early on after the treatment with chemotherapy (oxaliplatin). The time points were selected t

Project description:A study aiming to determine if mice humanized by different donors have different gut microbiota and colonic gene expression patterns in response to the administration of a commonly prescribed, broad-spectrum antibiotic (co-amoxiclav). Male, germ-free mice were humanized by one of two healthy, unrelated human donors. 56 days later, gut microbiota and colonic transcriptome samples were analyzed at baseline, by 454 pyrosequencing and Agilent microarray, respectively. Antibiotics were then administered for 7 days, following by repeated sampling of both the microbiota and colonic RNA at days 8, 11 and 18. Results of the microbiota analysis revealed marked shifts in the composition of one donor group in response to antibiotics and not the other donor group. Transcriptomics revealed a more conserved response, however the magnitude of the effect was greater in the donor group that had a greater shift in the microbiota.

Project description:Periodontitis is increasingly linked to diverse brain disorders, yet causal mechanisms remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that ligature-induced oral dysbiosis in mice is sufficient to perturb central function. Six weeks of periodontitis produced anxiety-like behavior and motor deficits, accompanied by microglial depletion, reduced neuronal activity and region-selective transcriptional down-regulation in the frontal cortex. Pharmacological microglial ablation phenocopied, and glucocorticoid-receptor blockade rescued, these abnormalities, implicating microglia and activation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed significant shifts in oral and gut microbiota that were partially normalized by a broad-spectrum antibiotic cocktail. Antibiotics alone elevated corticosterone but did not affect microglia or behavior, indicating that dysbiosis and glucocorticoids act synergistically on the brain dysfunction. Antibiotic treatment restored microglial density and behaviors in ligature mice, despite plasma corticosterone levels remaining elevated and comparable to those in antibiotic-treated controls. Our findings suggest oral dysbiosis as a tractable driver of neuroimmune dysfunction and redefine periodontitis as a systemic disorder with direct consequences for brain health.

Project description:Protection against pathogens is a major function of the gut microbiota. Although bacterial natural products have emerged as crucial components of host-microbiota interactions, their exact role in microbiota-mediated protection is largely unexplored. We addressed this knowledge gap with the nematodeCaenorhabditis elegansand its microbiota isolatePseudomonas fluorescensMYb115 that is known to protect againstBacillus thuringiensis (Bt) infection. We find that MYb115-mediated protection depends on sphingolipids that are derived from an iterative type I polyketide synthase (PKS), thereby describing a noncanonical pathway of bacterial sphingolipid production. We provide evidence that MYb115-derived sphingolipids affectC. eleganstolerance to Bt infection by altering host sphingolipid metabolism. This work establishes sphingolipids as structural outputs of bacterial PKS and highlights the role of microbiota-derived sphingolipids in host protection against pathogens.
