Project description:Microbiota-induced cytokine responses participate in gut homeostasis, but the cytokine balance at steady-state and the role of individual bacterial species in setting the balance remain elusive. Using gnotobiotic mouse models, we provide a systematic analysis of the role of microbiota in the induction of cytokine responses in the normal intestine. Colonization by a whole mouse microbiota orchestrated a broad spectrum of pro-inflammatory (Th1, Th17) and regulatory T cell responses. Unexpectedly, most tested complex microbiota and individual bacteria failed to efficiently stimulate intestinal cytokine responses. A potent cytokine-inducing function was however associated with non-culturable host-specific species, the prototype of which was the Clostridia-related Segmented Filamentous Bacterium, and this bacterial species recapitulated the coordinated maturation of T cell responses induced by the whole mouse microbiota. Our study demonstrates the non-redundant role of microbiota members in the regulation of gut immune homeostasis. Germfree (GF) female 8-9-week-old mice were gavaged twice at a 24-hr interval with 0.5 mL of fresh anaerobic cultures of fecal homogenate from SFB mono-associated mice, fresh feces from Cv mice (Cvd) or from a healthy human donor (Hum). All mice were sacrificed on d8, 20 and 60 post-colonization in parallel to age-matched Cv and GF controls. RNA was extracted from ileal tissue, and processed to biotin-labelled cRNA, and then hybridized to the NuGO array (mouse) NuGO_Mm1a520177. Microarray analysis compared gene expression in ileum tissue of all the treatment groups GF, Cv, Cvd, Hum and SFB (N=3 per treatment group per time-point). Data was considered significant when P<0.05 using the Benjamini and Hochberg false discovery method.

Project description:The mammalian gut harbors a diverse microbial community (gut microbiota) that mainly consists of bacteria. Their combined genomes (the microbiome) provide biochemical and metabolic functions that complement host physiology. Maintaining symbiosis seems to be a key requirement for health as dysbiosis is associated with the development of common diseases. Previous studies indicated that the microbiota and the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys epithelium signal bidirectional inducing transcriptional responses to fine-tune and maintain symbiosis. However, little is known about the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys responses to the microbiota along the length of the gut as earlier studies of gut microbial ecology mostly used either colonic or fecal samples. This is of importance as not only function and architecture of the gut varies along its length but also microbial distribution and diversity. Few recent studies have begun to investigate microbiota-induced host responses along the length of the gut. However, these reports used whole tissue samples and therefore do not allow drawing conclusions about specificity of the observed responses. Which cells in the intestinal tissue are responsible for the microbially induced response: epithelial, mesenchymal or immune cells? Where are the responding cells located? Furthermore, the gut microbiota has been implicated in epigenetic regulation of the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys transcriptional profile. We used using extensive microarray analysis of laser capture microdissection (LCM) harvested ileal and colonic tip and crypt fractions from germ-free mice before and during the time course of colonization with a normal microbiota (on days 1, 3, 5 and 7) to investigate the microbiota-induced transcriptional responses and their kinetics in specific and well-defined cell populations of the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys epithelium. Ileum and colon segments were dissected from germ-free 10-12 weeks old female C57Bl/6 mice and on day 1, 3, 5 and 7 after colonization, washed and frozen as OCT blocks. Cryosections were prepared from these OCT blocks and tip/crypt fractions isolated using laser capture microdissection. To investigate the microbiota-induced transcriptional responses specific for specific subpopulations of intestinal epithelial cells and their kinetics, tip and crypt fractions of ileal and colonic epithelium of germ-free 10-12 weeks old female C57Bl/6 mice before and during the time course of colonization with a normal microbiota (on days 1, 3, 5 and 7) were harvested using laser capture microdissection and probed in an extensive microarray analysis.

Project description:Homeostatic interactions between the host and its resident microbiota is important for normal physiological functions and if altered, it could lead to dysbiosis, a change in the structure and function of the microbiota, and as a result to various pathophysiologies. Altered structure in bacterial community is associated with various pathophysiologies, but we are just beginning to understand how these structural changes translate into functional changes. Environmental factors including pathogenic infections can lead to altered interactions between the host and its resident microbiota. We used microarray analysis and a C. elegans model system to gain insights on the mechanisms of functional changes in host-commensal bacteria interaction in the presence or absence of G. duodenalis and identified expression pattern in commensal bacteria that are characteristic of homeostatic and dysbiotic interactions. E. coli HB101 exposed to C. elegans in the presence or absence of G. duodenalis conditioned S-basal complete media for 24 hours were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We collected expression data for E. coli HB101, E. coli HB101 exposed to C. elegans, E. coli HB101 exposed to Giardia conditioned media, and E. coli HB101 exposed to both C. elegans and Giardia conditioned media.

Project description:Leaves are colonised by a complex mix of microbes, termed the leaf microbiota. Even though the leaf microbiota is increasingly recognised as an integral part of plant life and health, our understanding of its interactions with the plant host is still limited. Here, mature, axenically grown Arabidopsis thaliana plants were spray-inoculated with diverse leaf-colonising bacteria. Whole transcriptome sequencing revealed that four days after inoculation, leaf transcriptional changes to colonisation by non-pathogenic and pathogenic bacteria differed in strength but not in the type of response.

Project description:Approximately 15% of US adults have circulating levels of uric acid above its solubility limit, which is causally linked to the inflammatory disease gout. In most mammals, uric acid elimination is facilitated by the enzyme uricase. However, human uricase is a pseudogene, having been inactivated early in hominid evolution. Though it has long been known that a substantial amount of uric acid is eliminated in the gut, the role of the gut microbiota in hyperuricemia has not been studied. Here we identify a gene cluster, widely distributed in the gut microbiome, that encodes a pathway for uric acid degradation. Stable isotope tracing demonstrates that gut bacteria metabolize uric acid to xanthine or short chain fatty acids such as acetate, lactate and butyrate. Ablation of the microbiota in uricase-deficient mice causes profound hyperuricemia, and anaerobe-targeted antibiotics increase the risk of gout in humans. These data reveal a role for the gut microbiota in uric acid excretion and highlight the potential for microbiome-targeted therapeutics in hyperuricemia.

Project description:This pilot research trial studies the effects of chemotherapy on intestinal bacteria/organisms (microbiota) in patients newly diagnosed with breast cancer. Change in intestinal microbiota may be associated with weight gain in patients treated with chemotherapy. Weight gain has been also associated with cancer recurrence. Examining the types and quantity of bacterial composition in the stool of breast cancer patients treated with chemotherapy may help determine whether body weight and composition are associated with changes in the intestinal microbiota and allow doctors to plan better treatment to prevent weight gain and possibly disease recurrence.

Project description:Elucidating the role of gut microbiota in physiological and pathological processes has recently emerged as a key research aim in life sciences. In this respect, metaproteomics (the study of the whole protein complement of a microbial community) can provide a unique contribution by revealing which functions are actually being expressed by specific microbial taxa. However, its wide application to gut microbiota research has been hindered by challenges in data analysis, especially related to the choice of the proper sequence databases for protein identification. Here we present a systematic investigation of variables concerning database construction and annotation, and evaluate their impact on human and mouse gut metaproteomic results. We found that both publicly available and experimental metagenomic databases lead to the identification of unique peptide assortments, suggesting parallel database searches as a mean to gain more complete information. Taxonomic and functional results were revealed to be strongly database-dependent, especially when dealing with mouse samples. As a striking example, in mouse the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio varied up to 10-fold depending on the database used. Finally, we provide recommendations regarding metagenomic sequence processing aimed at maximizing gut metaproteome characterization, and contribute to identify an optimized pipeline for metaproteomic data analysis.
