Project description:Aging is associated with declining immunity and inflammation as well as alterations in the gut microbiome with a decrease of beneficial microbes and increase in pathogenic ones. The aim of this study was to investigate aging associated gut microbiome in relation to immunologic and metabolic profile in a non-human primate (NHP) model. 12 old (age>18 years) and 4 young (age 3-6 years) Rhesus macaques were included in this study. Immune cell subsets were characterized in PBMC by flow cytometry and plasma cytokines levels were determined by bead based multiplex cytokine analysis. Stool samples were collected by ileal loop and investigated for microbiome analysis by shotgun metagenomics. Serum, gut microbial lysate and microbe-free fecal extract were subjected to metabolomic analysis by mass-spectrometry. Our results showed that the old animals exhibited higher inflammatory biomarkers in plasma and lower CD4 T cells with altered distribution of naïve and memory T cell maturation subsets. The gut microbiome in old animals had higher abundance of Archaeal and Proteobacterial species and lower Firmicutes than the young. Significant enrichment of metabolites that contribute to inflammatory and cytotoxic pathways was observed in serum and feces of old animals compared to the young. We conclude that aging NHP undergo immunosenescence and age associated alterations in the gut microbiome that has a distinct metabolic profile.

Project description:Opioid analgesics are frequently prescribed in the United States and worldwide. However, serious side effects such as addiction, immunosuppression and gastrointestinal symptoms limit long term use. In the current study using a chronic morphine-murine model a longitudinal approach was undertaken to investigate the role of morphine modulation of gut microbiome as a mechanism contributing to the negative consequences associated with opioids use. The results revealed a significant shift in the gut microbiome and metabolome within 24 hours following morphine treatment when compared to placebo. Morphine induced gut microbial dysbiosis exhibited distinct characteristic signatures profiles including significant increase in communities associated with pathogenic function, decrease in communities associated with stress tolerance. Collectively, these results reveal opioids-induced distinct alteration of gut microbiome, may contribute to opioids-induced pathogenesis. Therapeutics directed at these targets may prolong the efficacy long term opioid use with fewer side effects.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is the 3rd most prevalent cause of cancer related deaths in United states alone, with over 55000 patients being diagnosed in 2019 alone and nearly as many succumbing to it. Late detection, lack of effective therapy and poor understanding of pancreatic cancer systemically contributes to its poor survival statistics. Obesity and high caloric intake linked co-morbidities like type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been attributed as being risk factors for a number of cancers including pancreatic cancer. Studies on gut microbiome has shown that lifestyle factors as well as diet has a huge effect on the microbial flora of the gut. Further, modulation of gut microbiome has been seen to contribute to effects of intensive insulin therapy in mice on high fat diet. In another study, abnormal gut microbiota was reported to contribute to development of diabetes in Db/Db mice. Recent studies indicate that microbiome and microbial dysbiosis plays a role in not only the onset of disease but also in its outcome. In colorectal cancer, Fusobacterium has been reported to promote therapy resistance. Certain intra-tumoral bacteria have also been shown to elicit chemo-resistance by metabolizing anti-cancerous agents. In pancreatic cancer, studies on altered gut microbiome have been relatively recent. Microbial dysbiosis has been observed to be associated with pancreatic tumor progression. Modulation of microbiome has been shown to affect response to anti-PD1 therapy in this disease as well. However, most of the studies in pancreatic cancer and microbiome have remained focused om immune modulation. In the current study, we observed that in a T2D mouse model, the microbiome changed significantly as the hyperglycemia developed in these animals. Our results further showed that, tumors implanted in the T2D mice responded poorly to Gemcitabine/Paclitaxel (Gem/Pac) standard of care compared to those in the control group. A metabolomic reconstruction of the WGS of the gut microbiota further revealed that an enrichment of bacterial population involved in drug metabolism in the T2D group.

Project description:The majority of people in the U.S. manage health through at least one prescription drug. Drugs classified as non-antibiotics can adversely affect the gut microbiome and disrupt intestinal homeostasis. Here, we identified medications associated with an increased risk of GI infections across a population cohort of more than 1 million individuals monitored over 15 years. Notably, the cardiac glycoside digoxin and other drugs identified in this epidemiological study are sufficient to alter microbiome composition and risk of Salmonella enterica subsp. Typhimurium (S. Tm) infection in mice. The impact of digoxin treatment on S. Tm infection is transmissible via the microbiome, and characterization of this interaction highlights a digoxin-responsive b-defensin that alters microbiome composition and consequent immune surveillance of the invading pathogen. Combining epidemiological and experimental approaches thus provides an opportunity to uncover drug-host-microbiome-pathogen interactions that increase infection risk in human populations.

Project description:The gut-uterus axis plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of endometrial cancer (EC). However, the correlations between the endometrial microbiome and endometrial tumor transcriptome in patients with EC and the impact of the endometrial microbiota on hematological indicators have not been thoroughly clarified. In this prospective study, endometrial tissue samples collected from EC patients (n = 30) and healthy volunteers (n = 10) were subjected to 16S rRNA sequencing of the microbiome. The 30 paired tumor and adjacent nontumor endometrial tissues from the EC group were subjected to RNAseq. Result: We found that Pelomonas and Prevotella were enriched in the EC group with a high tumor burden. Further transcriptome analysis identified 8 robust associations between Prevotella and fibrin degradation-related genes expressed within ECs. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the increasing abundance of Prevotella in endometrial tissue combined with high serum DD and FDP contents may be important factors associated with tumor burden.

Project description:The gastric barrier plays a major role in the maintanance of the distal intestinal microbiome composition. It has been shown before that the use of gastric acid suppression medication, such as proton pump inhibitors, are associated with distinctive alterations of the intestinal microbiome. Foremost, the invasion of predominantly oral bacteria, like Veillonella and Streptococcus species, were a resurring finding in previous reports.
Gastric cancer treatment includes the total or subtotal resection of the stomach which can influence the gastric acid production. However, the influence by alterations in gastric milieu after this treatment on the composition of the intestinal microbiome is not well studied.
Therefore, the intestinal microbiome of patients after total or subtotal gastrectomy and its influence on intestinal inflammation and gut permeability will be studied.

Project description:Early detection of spoilage microorganisms and food pathogens is of major importance in preventing food recalls and foodborne outbreaks. Although constant effort is invested in developing sensitive methods for rapid microbial detection, none of the current methods enables the detection of food pathogens within a few hours; therefore, development of innovative early-warning food-testing strategies are needed. Herein, we assessed a novel strategy that harnesses the microbiome signature of a food product to determine deviations in the abundance of particular community members and detect production defects. Employing the production process of barbecued (BarBQ) pastrami as a model, we characterized the microbiome profiles of the product along the production line using next-generation sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, concentrating on the live microbiota. Following the establishment of a microbiome dataset representing a properly produced product, we were able to identify shifts in the microbiome profile of a defective batch produced under potassium lactate deficiency. With the identification of Vibrio and Lactobacillus as potential indicator bacteria for potassium lactate deficiency, rapid qPCR assays were designed for their quantification. Aligned with the microbiome profiling results, these qPCR assays were effective for rapid identification of a defective production event. This implies the use of rapid quantification targeting microbiome profile-derived indicator bacteria for in-house detection of defective batches and identification of food-safety and quality events with results obtained on the same day. The suggested strategy should pave the way toward safer and more efficient food-production systems.

Project description:DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that is altered in cancer and aging tissues. The effects of extrinsic factors on DNA methylation remain incompletely understood. Microbial dysbiosis is a hallmark of colorectal cancer, and infections have been linked to aberrant DNA methylation in cancers of the GI tract. To determine the microbiota’s impact on DNA methylation, we studied the DNA methylation of colorectal mucosa in germ-free (GF, no microbiome) and specific pathogen free (SPF, controlled microbiome) mice, as well as in interleukin 10 KO mice (Il10-/-) which are prone to inflammation and tumorigenesis in the presence of a microbiome. We compared DNA methylation changes to those seen in aging, and after exposure to the colon carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM). DNA methylation changes associated with aging were accelerated in the Il10-/- /SPF mice. By contrast, AOM induced profound hypomethylation that was distinct from the effects of aging or of the microbiome. CpG sites modified by the microbiome were over-represented among DNA methylation changes in colorectal cancer. Thus, the microbiome affects the DNA methylome of colorectal mucosa in patterns reminiscent of what is observed in colorectal cancer.
