Project description:The current treatment for Celiac Disease (CD) is adhering to a gluten-free diet (GFD), although its long-term molecular effects are still undescribed. New molecular features detectable in faecal samples may improve and facilitate non-invasive clinical management of CD on GFD. For this purpose, faecal small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) and gut microbiome profiles were concomitantly explored in CD subjects in relation to strict (or not) GFD adherence over time. In the present observational study, we performed small RNA and shotgun metagenomic sequencing in stool from 63 treated CD (tCD) subjects and 66 sex- and age-matched healthy controls. tCD included 51 individuals on strict GFD and with negative transglutaminase (TG) serology (tCD-TG-) and 12 symptomatic with not strict/short-time of GFD adherence and positive TG serology (tCD-TG+). Samples from additional 40 adult healthy individuals and from a cohort of 19 untreated paediatric CD subjects and 19 sex/age matched controls were analyzed to further test the outcomes. Several miRNA, other sncRNA (piRNA and tRNA) and microbiota profiles were altered in tCD subjects(adj.p<0.05). Findings were validated in one external group of controls. In tCD-TG-, GFD duration correlated with five miRNA levels (p<0.05): for miR-4533-3p and miR-2681-3p, the longer the diet adherence, the less the expression differed from controls. tCD-TG+ and untreated paediatric CD patients showed a similar miRNA dysregulation. Immune-response, trans-membrane transport and cell death pathways were enriched in targets of identified miRNAs. Bifidobacterium longum, Ruminococcus bicirculans and Haemophilus parainfluenzae abundances shifted (adj. p<0.05) with a progressive reduction of denitrification pathways with GFD length. Integrative analysis highlighted 121 miRNA-bacterial relationships (adj.p<0.05). Specific faecal sncRNA and microbial patterns characterise CD subjects on GFD, reflecting either the long-term effects or the gut inflammatory status, in case of a not strict/short-time adherence. Our findings suggest novel host-microbial interplays and could help the discovery of biomarkers for the clinical monitoring of GFD over time.

Project description:RNAseq and LC/MS metabolomics analysis of C. difficile strain 630 grown in BHIS media with 50% (vol/vol) faecal water added, compared with control BHIS containing only the additional PBS used for prep of Faecal water. Cells grown in biological triplicates to late log phase (T=6h) prior to harvest. Goal was to determine changes in gene expression caused by exposure to Faecal water, and changes in the metabolite profile of faecal water containing medium when incubated with actively growing C. difficile cells

Project description:In this randomised placebo-controlled trial, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients were treated with faecal material from a healthy donor (n=8, allogenic FMT) or with their own faecal microbiota (n=8, autologous FMT). The faecal transplant was administered by whole colonoscopy into the caecum (30 g of stool in 150 ml sterile saline). Two weeks before the FMT (baseline) as well as two and eight weeks after the FMT, the participants underwent a sigmoidoscopy, and biopsies were collected at a standardised location (20-25 cm from the anal verge at the crossing with the arteria iliaca communis) from an uncleansed sigmoid. In patients treated with allogenic FMT, predominantly immune response-related genes sets were induced, with the strongest response two weeks after FMT. In patients treated with autologous FMT, predominantly metabolism-related gene sets were affected.

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.
