Project description:Human breast milk contains a diverse community of bacteria but factors that produce variation in the breast milk microbiome are largely unknown. We evaluated if 1) maternal factors including breastfeeding practices modified the diversity and abundance of bacterial communities in breast milk and 2) if subclinical mastitis (SCM), an asymptomatic inflammatory condition occurring during lactation, induced a distinctive microbiota signature.

Project description:Understanding how the human gut microbiota and host are impacted by probiotic bacterial strains requires carefully controlled studies in humans, and in mouse models of the gut ecosystem where potentially confounding variables that are difficult to control in humans can be constrained. Therefore, we characterized the fecal microbiomes and metatranscriptomes of adult female monozygotic twin pairs through repeated sampling 4 weeks prior to, 7 weeks during, and 4 weeks following consumption of a commercially-available fermented milk product (FMP) containing a consortium of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis, two strains of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, and Streptococcus thermophilus. In addition, gnotobiotic mice harboring a 15-species model human gut microbiota whose genomes contain 58,399 known or predicted protein-coding genes were studied prior to and after gavage with all five sequenced FMP strains. 140 samples total. Evaluation of changes in a model community's structure over time after exposure to a consortium of 5 fermented milk product (FMP) strains.

Project description:Inappropriate cross talk between mammals and their gut microbiota may trigger intestinal inflammation and drive extra-intestinal immune-mediated diseases. Studies with germ-free or gnotobiotic animals represent the gold standard for research on bacterial-host interaction but they are not readily accessible to the wide scientific community. We aimed at refining a protocol that in a robust manner would deplete murine intestinal microbiota and prove to have significant biologic validity. Previously published protocols for depleting mice of their intestinal microbiota by administering broad-spectrum antibiotics in drinking water were difficult to reproduce. We show that twice daily delivery of antibiotics by gavage depleted mice of their cultivable fecal microbiota and reduced the fecal bacterial DNA load by approximately 400 fold while ensuring the animals’ health. Mice subjected to the protocol for 17 days displayed enlarged ceca, reduced Peyer’s patches and small spleens. Antibiotic treatment significantly reduced the expression of antimicrobial factors and altered the expression of 517 genes in total in the colonic epithelium. Genes involved in cell cycle were significantly altered concomitant with reduced epithelial proliferative activity in situ assessed by Ki-67 expression, suggesting that commensal microbiota drives cellular proliferation in colonic epithelium. We present a robust protocol for depleting mice of their cultivatable intestinal microbiota with antibiotics by gavage and show that the biological effect of this depletion is phenotypic characteristics and epithelial gene expression profile similar to those of germ-free mice. Comparison of genome-wide gene expression of colon intestinal epithelial cells from mice subjected to microbiota depletion protocol against to control mice.

Project description:The factors that govern the retention and abundance of specific microbial lineages within a developing intestinal microbiota remain poorly defined. Human milk oligosaccharides consumed by nursing infnats pass undigested to the distal gut where they may be consumed by microbes. We investigated the transcriptional response of Bacterides fragilis, a prominent gut resident, to the presence of HMOs. In vitro transcriptional profiles of Bacteroides fragilis obtained from biological duplicate cultures taken at middle log phase in minimal media glucose (MM-Glu) and in minimal media with human milk oligosaccharides (MM-HMO).

Project description:The breast milk plays a crucial role in shaping the initial intestinal microbiota and mucosal immunity of the infant. Interestingly, breastfeeding has proven to be protective against the early onset of immune-mediated diseases including type 1 diabetes (T1D). Studies have shown that exosomes from human breast milk (HM) are enriched in immune-modulating miRNAs suggesting that exosomal miRNAs transferred to the infant could play a critical role in the development of the infant’s immune system. In this study, we extracted exosome exosomal microRNAs (exomiRs) from breast milk of type 1 diabetic and healthy lactating mothers, in order to identify any differences in the exomiR content between the two groups

Project description:Studies of normal human mammary gland development and function have mostly relied on cell culture, limited surgical specimens, and rodent models. Although RNA extracted from human milk has been used to assay the mammary transcriptome non-invasively, the transcriptome derived from the milk fat layer has not been compared with the mammary-derived transcriptome nor have sources of RNA been quantified in milk. In this study the effects of milk collection and processing on RNA quality and origin were assessed in humans and rhesus macaques. Total RNA in milk was quantitated in acridine orange-stained milk using an automated whole slide scanner and custom-built Globulator software. Total RNA extracted from milk fat, cells in milk, and mammary biopsies of lactating rhesus macaques were compared using RNA sequencing and analysis. Compared with human milk, milk from macaques contained similar amounts of RNA-containing cytoplasmic crescents, but more cells. Total RNA extracted from milk fractions was also evaluated for factors that affect RNA quality. Degradation of RNA extracted from human milk fat was positively correlated with geographic distance from collection site, storage time, and sample type. There were no differences in RNA degradation in macaque milk collected after 10 min or 4 hr accumulation, suggesting that degradation of RNA extracted from milk fat may not occur in the mammary gland. Using RNA-Seq, RNA extracted from macaque milk fat and cells in milk more accurately represented RNA from mammary epithelial cells (cells that produce milk) than did RNA from mammary tissue. Mammary epithelium-specific transcripts were more abundant in macaque milk fat whereas adipose or stroma-specific transcripts were more abundant in mammary tissue. Functional analyses confirmed the validity of milk as a source of RNA from mammary epithelial cells. Analysis of highly abundant putative microRNAs in macaque milk fat revealed a potentially novel non-coding RNA species that is conserved in humans. RNA extracted from the milk fat during lactation accurately portrayed the RNA profile of milk-producing mammary epithelial cells. However, this sample type clearly requires protocols that minimize RNA degradation.

Project description:We have reported that microRNAs are present in human, bovine, and rat milk whey. Milk whey miRNAs were resistant to acidic condition and to RNase. Thus, milk miRNAs were thought to be present packaged into membrane vesicles like exosome. However, body fluid miRNAs have been reported that there are in different forms. To clarify which miRNAs species are exist in exosome and which species are exist in another form, we used bovine raw milk and purified total RNA from exosome fraction and ultracentrifugated supernatant fraction, and analyzed by miRNA microarray.
