Project description:The human gut microbiota is a metabolic organ whose cellular composition is determined by a dynamic process of selection and competition. To identify microbial genes required for establishment of human symbionts in the gut, we developed an approach (insertion-sequencing, or INSeq) based on a mutagenic transposon that allows capture of adjacent chromosomal DNA to define its genomic location. We used massively parallel sequencing to monitor the relative abundance of tens of thousands of transposon mutants of a saccharolytic human gut bacterium, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, as they established themselves in wild-type and immunodeficient gnotobiotic mice, in the presence or absence of other human gut commensals. In vivo selection transforms this population, revealing functions necessary for survival in the gut: we show how this selection is influenced by community composition and competition for nutrients (vitamin B12). INSeq provides a broadly applicable platform to explore microbial adaptation to the gut and other ecosystems. Keywords: Other 57 samples analyzed, 1 of these is the reference (input) sample

Project description:BACKGROUND: Metagenomic studies carried out in the past decade have led to an enhanced understanding of the gut microbiome in human health, however, the Indian gut microbiome is not well explored yet. We analysed the gut microbiome of 110 healthy individuals from two distinct locations (North-Central and Southern) in India using multi-omics approaches, including 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, whole genome shotgun metagenomic sequencing, and metabolomic profiling of faecal and serum samples. </br> RESULTS: The gene catalogue established in this study emphasizes the uniqueness of the Indian gut microbiome in comparison to other populations. The gut microbiome of the cohort from North-Central India, which was primarily consuming a plant-based diet, was found to be associated with Prevotella, and also showed an enrichment of Branched Chain Amino Acid (BCAA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis pathways. In contrast, the gut microbiome of the cohort from Southern India, which was consuming an omnivorous diet, showed associations with Bacteroides, Ruminococcus and Faecalibacterium, and had an enrichment of Short Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) biosynthesis pathway and BCAA transporters. This corroborated well with the metabolomics results, which showed higher concentration of BCAAs in the serum metabolome of the North-Central cohort and an association with Prevotella. In contrast, the concentration of BCAAs were found higher in the faecal metabolome of the Southern-India cohort, and showed a positive correlation with the higher abundance of BCAA transporters. </br> CONCLUSIONS: The study reveals the unique composition of Indian gut microbiome, establishes the Indian gut microbial gene catalogue, and compares it with the gut microbiome of other populations. The functional associations revealed using metagenomic and metabolomic approaches provide novel insights on the gut-microbe-metabolic axis, which will be useful for future epidemiological and translational researches.

Project description:Metaproteomics offers a direct avenue to identify microbial proteins in microbiota, enabling compositional and functional characterization of microbiota. Due to the complexity and heterogeneity of microbial communities, in-depth and accurate metaproteomics faces tremendous limitations. One challenge in metaproteomics is the construction of a suitable protein sequence database to interpret the highly complex metaproteomic data, especially in the absence of metagenomic sequencing data. Herein, we present a high-abundance protein-guided hybrid spectral library strategy for in-depth data independent acquisition (DIA) metaproteomic analysis (HAPs-hyblibDIA). A dedicated high-abundance protein database of gut microbial species is constructed and used to mine the strains information of microbiota samples by directDIA. Then, sample-specific protein sequence database is built based on the strains information using Uniprot protein sequence for subsequent analysis of DIA data using directDIA or hybrid spectral library-based DIA analysis strategies. We evaluated the accuracy and sensitivity of the method using synthetic microbial community samples and human gut microbiome samples. It was demonstrated that the strategy can successfully identify species in microbiota samples, and that the peptides identified by HAPs-hyblibDIA shared a great common part with the peptides identified using metagenomic sequencing-derived database. At the peptide and species level, our results can serve as a complement to the results obtained by metagenomic sequencing-derived database. Furthermore, we validated the applicability of the HAPs-hyblibDIA strategy in a cohort of human gut microbiota samples of colorectal cancer patients and control, highlighting its usability in biomedical research.

Project description:The gut microbiota plays an important role in host health. Microbiota dysbiosis has been implicated in the global epidemic of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and could impair host metabolism by noxious metabolites. It has been well established that the gut microbiota is shaped by host immune factors. However, the effect of T cells on the gut microbiota is yet unknown. Here, we performed a metagenomic whole-genome shotgun sequencing (mWGS) study of the microbiota of TCRb-/- mice, which lack alpha/beta T cells.

Project description:The indigenous human gut microbiota is a major contributor to the human superorganism with established roles in modulating nutritional status, immunity, and systemic health including diabetes and obesity. The complexity of the gut microbiota consisting of over 1012 residents and approximately 1000 species has thus far eluded systematic analyses of the precise effects of individual microbial residents on human health. In contrast, health benefits have been shown upon ingestion of certain so-called probiotic Lactobacillus strains in food products and nutritional supplements, thereby providing a unique opportunity to study the global responses of a gut-adapted microorganism in the human gut and to identify the molecular mechanisms underlying microbial modulation of intestinal physiology, which might involve alterations in the intestinal physico-chemical environment, modifications in the gut microbiota, and/or direct interaction with mucosal epithelia and immune cells. Here we show by transcriptome analysis using DNA microarrays that the established probiotic bacterium, L. plantarum 299v, adapts its metabolic capacity in the human digestive tract for carbohydrate acquisition and expression of exo-polysaccharide and proteinaceous cell surface compounds. This report constitutes the first application of global gene expression profiling of a gut-adapted commensal microorganism in the human gut. Comparisons of the transcript profiles to those obtained for L. plantarum WCFS1 in germ-free mice revealed conserved L. plantarum responses indicative of a core transcriptome expressed in the mammalian gut and provide new molecular targets for determining microbial-host interactions affecting human health.

Project description:The role of gut microbiome dysbiosis in the pathogenesis of psoriasis has gained increasing attention in recent years. Secukinumab, targeting interleukin (IL)-17, has a promising efficacy in psoriasis treatment. However, it remains unclear the gut microbiota alteration and related functional changes caused by successful secukinumab therapy in psoriatic patients. In our study, we compared fecal microbiome profile between psoriatic patients after secukinumab successful treatment (AT) and the other two groups, psoriatic patients without therapy (BT) and healthy people (H), respectively by using next-generation sequencing targeting 16S ribosomal RNA. Then, shotgun metagenomic sequencing was firstly used to characterize bacterial gut microbial communities and related functional change in AT group. We found that the diversity and structure of the microbial community in AT group were significantly changed compared to that of BT group and H group. AT group showed a microbiota profile characterized by increased proportions of the phylum Firmicute, families Ruminococcaceae, and a reduction in the phylum Bacteroidota (elevated F/B ratio). To detect functional alteration, we discovered that secukinumab treatment may construct a more stable homeostasis of gut microbiome with functional alteration. There were different KEGG pathways such as downregulated cardiovascular diseases pathway and upregulated infectious diseases in AT group. By metagenomic analysis, metabolic functional pathway was changed after secukinumab therapy. It seems that gut microbiota investigation during biologic drug treatment is useful for predicting the efficacy and risks of drug treatment in disease.
