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:Crohn's Disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestinal tract. We performed a whole-genome transcriptional analysis using colonic biopsies from CD patients before and after anti-TNF-α therapy. Involved colonic samples from Crohn's disease patients and healthy colonic samples from non-inflammatory controls were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Inclusion criteria for CD patients were: age between 18 and 70, diagnosis of CD established at least 4 months before inclusion and exclusion of concomitant infection. Active disease was defined by endoscopic and clinical score: endoscopic active disease was defined as a CD endoscopic index of severity (CDEIS) of 5 or more and the presence of large ulcers (> 0.5 cm diameter) in at least one of the explored segments. Clinical activity was defined as a CD activity index (CDAI) above 150. Finally, a total of 39 biopsies were analyzed: 17 healthy controls, 10 active CD without anti-TNF therapy, 5 active CD with anti-TNF therapy (non-responders) and 7 inactive CD with anti-TNF therapy (responders).

Abstract:
Clostridium difficile infections are associated with the use
of broad-spectrum antibiotics and result in an exuberant
inflammatory response, leading to nosocomial diarrhea, colitis
and even death. To better understand the dynamics of mucosal
immunity during C. difficile infection from initiation through
expansion to resolution, we built a computational model of the
mucosal immune response to the bacterium. The model was
calibrated using data from a mouse model of C. difficile
infection. The model demonstrates a crucial role of T helper 17
(Th17) effector responses in the colonic lamina propria and
luminal commensal bacteria populations in the clearance of C.
difficile and colonic pathology, whereas regulatory T (Treg)
cells responses are associated with the recovery phase. In
addition, the production of anti-microbial peptides by inflamed
epithelial cells and activated neutrophils in response to C.
difficile infection inhibit the re-growth of beneficial
commensal bacterial species. Computational simulations suggest
that the removal of neutrophil and epithelial cell derived
anti-microbial inhibitions, separately and together, on
commensal bacterial regrowth promote recovery and minimize
colonic inflammatory pathology. Simulation results predict a
decrease in colonic inflammatory markers, such as neutrophilic
influx and Th17 cells in the colonic lamina propria, and length
of infection with accelerated commensal bacteria re-growth
through altered anti-microbial inhibition. Computational
modeling provides novel insights on the therapeutic value of
repopulating the colonic microbiome and inducing regulatory
mucosal immune responses during C. difficile infection. Thus,
modeling mucosal immunity-gut microbiota interactions has the
potential to guide the development of targeted fecal
transplantation therapies in the context of precision medicine
interventions.

Project description:Chronic inflammation and gut microbiota dysbiosis are risk factors for colorectal cancer. In clinical practice, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients have a greatly increased risk of developing colitis associated colorectal cancer (CAC). However, the basis underlying the initiation of CAC remains to be explored. Systematic filtration through existing genome-wide association study (GWAS) and conditional deletion of Zfp90 in CAC mice model indicated that Zfp90 was a putative oncogene in CAC development. Strikingly, depletion of gut microbiota eliminated the tumorigenic effect of Zfp90 in CAC mice model. Moreover, fecal microbiota transplantation demonstrated Zfp90 promoted CAC depending on gut microbiota. Combining 16s rDNA sequencing in feces specimens from CAC mice model, we speculated that Prevotella copri-defined microbiota might mediate the oncogenic role of Zfp90 in the development of CAC. Mechanistic studies revealed Zfp90 accelerated CAC development through Tlr4-Pi3k-Akt-Nf-κb pathway. Our findings elucidated the crucial role of Zfp90-microbiota-Nf-κb axis in creating a tumor-promoting environment and suggested therapeutic targets for CAC prevention and treatment.
