Project description:Intestinal barrier dysfunction, driven by increased oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) activity that leads to tissue hypoxia, contributes to the progression of cirrhosis, particularly impacting the upper intestine. This study explores the interplay between intestinal OXPHOS, gut microbiota changes, and the effects of fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) in cirrhotic patients. We investigated 32 age-matched men across three groups: healthy controls, compensated cirrhosis, and decompensated cirrhosis. Each underwent endoscopy with duodenal and ascending colon biopsies. Subsequently, in a follow-up study, nine patients with hepatic encephalopathy, previously enrolled in a randomized controlled trial for FMT capsules, underwent repeat pre and post-FMT upper endoscopy. Our bioinformatics analysis highlighted a significant upregulation of nuclear-encoded OXPHOS genes in both intestinal regions of cirrhosis patients compared to controls, with further dysregulation in the decompensated group. We also observed a strong correlation between shifts in gut microbiota composition, Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores, and OXPHOS activity. Following FMT, patients displayed a significant reduction in OXPHOS gene expression in the duodenum, suggesting that FMT may restore intestinal barrier function and offer a therapeutic avenue to mitigate liver disease progression. The findings indicate that managing intestinal OXPHOS and microbiota through FMT could be relevant in modulating microbially-based therapies.

Project description:Peritoneal macrophages (PM) are thought to regulate peritoneal inflammation and control bacterial infections in decompensated liver cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to characterize human PM heterogeneity. Employing CD206 surface expression, we identified subsets of human large (LPM) and small (SPM) PM, which differed in granularity and maturation states. FACS-sorted LPM from patients with decompensated cirrhosis revealed discrete transcriptome clusters, comprising more than 4000 differentially regulated genes involved in cell cycle, metabolism, and immune signaling.

Project description:Objectives Non-invasive staging of decompensated cirrhosis is an unmeet clinical need. The aims of this study were to characterize and validate a novel miRNA signature to stage decompensated cirrhosis and predict the portal pressure and cardiac dysfunction response to non-selective beta-blockers (NSBB). Design Serum samples from patients with decompensated cirrhosis (n=36) and healthy controls (n=36) were tested for a novel signature of five miRNAs (miR-452-5p, miR-429, miR-885-5p, miR-181b-5p, and miR-122-5p) identified in the secretome of primary human hepatocytes, and three miRNAs (miR-192-5p, miR-34a-5p and miR-29a-5p) previously discovered as biomarkers of chronic liver disease. All patients had ascites, that was refractory in 18 (50%), and were placed on NSBB for variceal bleeding prophylaxis. In all patients, serum miRNAs, hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG), and echocardiogram study was performed before and 1 month after NSBB. Results Cirrhotic patients had lower serum levels of miR-429, miR-885-5p, miR-181b-5p, miR-122-5p, miR-192-5p and miR-29a-5p (p<0.05). miR-452-5p and miR-429 expression were lower in NSBB responders (p=0.006). miR-181b-5p expression was greater in refractory- than in diuretic sensitive ascites (p=0.008) and correlated with serum creatinine. miR-452-5p and miR-885-5p were inversely correlated with baseline systemic vascular resistance (ρ=-0.46 p=0.007; and ρ=-0.41 p=0.01 respectively), and with diminished systolic contractility in patients with refractory ascites after NSBB (ρ=-0.55 p=0.02; and ρ=-0.55 p=0.02, respectively). Conclusion Analysis of a miRNA signature in serum distinguishes patients with decompensated cirrhosis who show more severe systemic circulatory dysfunction and compromised systolic function after beta-blockade, and those more likely to benefit from NSBB.

Project description:Dysbiotic configurations of the human gut microbiota have been linked with colorectal cancer (CRC). Human small non-coding RNAs are also implicated in CRC and recent findings suggest that their release in the gut lumen contributes to shape the gut microbiota. Bacterial small RNAs (bsRNAs) may also play a role in carcinogenesis but their role is less explored. Here, we performed small RNA and shotgun sequencing on 80 stool specimens of patients with CRC, or adenomas, and healthy subjects collected in a cross-sectional study to evaluate their combined use as a predictive tool for disease detection. We reported a considerable overlap and correlation between metagenomic and bsRNA quantitative taxonomic profiles obtained from the two approaches. Furthermore, we identified a combined predictive signature composed by 32 features from human and microbial small RNAs and DNA-based microbiome able to accurately classify CRC from healthy and adenoma samples (AUC= 0.87). In summary we reported evidence that host-microbiome dysbiosis in CRC can be observed also by altered small RNA stool profiles. Integrated analyses of the microbiome and small RNAs in the human stool may provide insights for designing more accurate tools for diagnostic purposes.

Project description:Whole blood from 7 patients with stable cirrhosis, 7 patients with acutely decompensated cirrhosis without ACLF and 17 patients with ACLF (8 related to sepsis and 9 unrelated to sepsis) was sampled into tempus tubes (Applied biosystems, Ambion). The same method was used to sample whole blood from 7 healthy subjects and from 8 patients with septic shock without cirrhosis that were used as comparators.RNA was then extracted using the PerfectPure RNA blood kit (3 PRIME) according to manufactuter instructions. 100 ng of RNA per sample were then hybridized on Human Transcriptome Array 2.0

Project description:Dysregulation of the gut microbiome has been implicated in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis. To determine the diagnostic capacity of this association, stool microbiomes were compared across 163 well-characterized participants encompassing non-NAFLD controls, NAFLD-cirrhosis patients and their first-degree relatives. Interrogation of shotgun metagenomic and untargeted metabolomic profiles using the Random Forest machine learning algorithm and differential abundance analysis identified discrete metagenomic and metabolomic signatures that were similarly effective in detecting cirrhosis (diagnostic accuracy 0.91, AUC). Combining the metagenomic signature with age and serum albumin levels accurately distinguished cirrhosis in etiologically and genetically distinct cohorts from geographically separated regions. Additional inclusion of serum aspartate aminotransferase levels, which are increased in cirrhosis patients, enabled discrimination of cirrhosis from earlier stages of fibrosis. These findings demonstrate that a core set of gut microbiome species may offer universal utility as a non-invasive diagnostic test for cirrhosis.

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.
