Project description:We aimed to investigate the microbial community composition in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and its effect on prognosis. The relationship between changes in bacterial flora and the prognosis of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage was studied in two cohort studies. Fecal samples from healthy volunteers and patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were subjected to 16S rRNA sequencing at three time points: T1 (within 24 hours of admission), T2 (3 days post-surgery), and T3 (7 days post-surgery) using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology.
Project description:Drosophila melanogaster was used to investigate the influence of microbiota-derived intestinal flora and its metabolites on host transcriptional regulation by adding sodium butyrate to a sterile diet for constructing a sterile Drosophila model. In order to further investigate the effects of sodium butyrate on Drosophila melanogaster at the molecular mechanism level, we detected the abundance and composition of midgut microbial colonies based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, and analyzed the overall structure and metabolic activities of host transcriptional networks by combining transcriptome and non-target metabolomics data.

Project description:Purpose The role of intestinal flora in carcinogenesis and chemotherapy efficacy has been increasingly studied; however, comparisons between oral and intestinal flora remain limited. This study aimed to identify the microbial changes in urothelial carcinoma (UC) by analyzing oral saliva and stool samples from healthy individuals and patients. We also examined the association between microbial composition and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response. Methods A total of 20 healthy individuals and 38 patients with UC were analyzed. Among them, 27 patients with UC underwent ICI treatment. Oral saliva and stool samples were analyzed for 16S rRNA sequences to assess bacterial composition. Operational taxonomic units were generated, and phylogenetic analysis was performed using the 16S Metagenomics app whithin the Illumina BaseSpace Sequence Hub. Results Patients with UC showed higher Veillonellaceae and Prevotellaceae levels in saliva and stool, with lower levels of these bacteria associated with more prolonged overall survival and progression-free survival, particularly Veillonellaceae in stool. A higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio correlated with increased levels of these bacteria. Conclusion Veillonellaceae and Prevotellaceae are potential microbial biomarkers of survival outcomes and ICI efficacy in patients with UC. Non-invasive oral microbial sampling may facilitate personalized cancer treatment strategies.
Project description:Interventions: Case (colorectal cancer) group:a newly diagnosed colorectal cancer( CRC ) by colonoscopy and pathology;Control group:Clinically healthy volunteers with no symptoms or history of intestinal disease(e.g. colonic adenomatous polyps, CRC or inflammatory bowel disease)
Primary outcome(s): composition of gut microbiota;intestinal microbial phytase activity;16s rRNA metagenomic sequencing;diet surveys;phytic acid intake
Study Design: Case-Control study
Project description:<p>There is increased appreciation for the roles of the gut-liver axis in liver and gall diseases. Specific gut microbes are associated with susceptibility to gallstone diseases,while the relationship between intestinal flora and liver metabolism in the formation of gallstones remains unclear. C57BL/6J male mice received a dietary intervention for 8 weeks, with a lithogenic diet given to the test group and a normal diet to the control group. An integrated 16S rRNA gene sequencing and LC/MS-based nontargeted metabolomics approach was performed to explore the impact of the lithogenic diet on the intestinal flora and liver metabolic phenotype, and Spearman correlation analysis established a network between the gut and liver. </p>
