Project description:Rationale: Recent studies suggest a potential link between gut bacterial microbiota dysbiosis and PAH, but the exact role of gut microbial communities, including bacteria, archaea, and fungi, in PAH remains unclear. Objectives: To investigate the role of gut microbiota dysbiosis in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and to assess the therapeutic potential of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in modulating PAH progression. Methods: Using shotgun metagenomics, we analyzed gut microbial communities in IPAH patients and healthy controls. FMT was performed to transfer gut microbiota from IPAH patients or MCT-PAH rats to normal rats and from healthy rats to MCT-PAH rats. Hemodynamic measurements, echocardiography, histological examination, metabolomic and RNA-seq analysis were conducted to evaluate the effects of FMT on PAH phenotypes. Measurements and Main Results: Gut microbiota analysis revealed significant alterations in the bacterial, archaeal, and fungal communities in IPAH patients compared to healthy controls. FMT from IPAH patients induced PAH phenotypes in recipient rats. Conversely, FMT from healthy rats to IPAH rats significantly ameliorated PAH symptoms, restored gut microbiota composition, and normalized serum metabolite profiles. Specific microbial species were identified with high diagnostic potential for IPAH, improving predictive performance beyond individual or combined microbial communities. Conclusions: This study establishes a causal link between gut microbiota dysbiosis and IPAH and demonstrates the therapeutic potential of FMT in reversing PAH phenotypes. The findings highlight the critical role of bacterial, archaeal, and fungal communities in PAH pathogenesis and suggest that modulation of the gut microbiome could be a promising treatment strategy for PAH.

Project description:We compared the microbiota of paired mouse caecal contents and faeces by applying a multi-omic approach, including 16S rDNA sequencing, shotgun metagenomics, and shotgun metaproteomics. The aim of the study was to verify whether faecal samples are a reliable proxy for the mouse colonic luminal microbiota, as well as to identify changes in taxonomy and functional activity between caecal and faecal microbial communities, which have to be carefully considered when using stool as sample for mouse gut microbiota investigations.

Project description:The human gut microbiota is an important metabolic organ, yet little is known about how its individual species interact, establish dominant positions, and respond to changes in environmental factors such as diet. In this study, gnotobiotic mice were colonized with an artificial microbiota comprising 12 sequenced human gut bacterial species and fed oscillating diets of disparate composition. Rapid, reproducible, and reversible changes in the structure of this assemblage were observed. Time-series microbial RNA-Seq analyses revealed staggered functional responses to diet shifts throughout the assemblage that were heavily focused on carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism. High-resolution shotgun metaproteomics confirmed many of these responses at a protein level. One member, Bacteroides cellulosilyticus WH2, proved exceptionally fit regardless of diet. Its genome encoded more carbohydrate active enzymes than any previously sequenced member of the Bacteroidetes. Transcriptional profiling indicated that B. cellulosilyticus WH2 is an adaptive forager that tailors its versatile carbohydrate utilization strategy to available dietary polysaccharides, with a strong emphasis on plant-derived xylans abundant in dietary staples like cereal grains. Two highly expressed, diet-specific polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) in B. cellulosilyticus WH2 were identified, one with characteristics of xylan utilization systems. Introduction of a B. cellulosilyticus WH2 library comprising >90,000 isogenic transposon mutants into gnotobiotic mice, along with the other artificial community members, confirmed that these loci represent critical diet-specific fitness determinants. Carbohydrates that trigger dramatic increases in expression of these two loci and many of the organism’s 111 other predicted PULs were identified by RNA-Seq during in vitro growth on 31 distinct carbohydrate substrates, allowing us to better interpret in vivo RNA-Seq and proteomics data. These results offer insight into how gut microbes adapt to dietary perturbations at both a community level and from the perspective of a well-adapted symbiont with exceptional saccharolytic capabilities, and illustrate the value of artificial communities. 611 samples total (221 from experiment 1, 390 from experiment 2). Evaluation of changes in an artificial gut community's structure over time as a result of dietary oscillation.

Project description:Gut microbiome research is rapidly moving towards the functional characterization of the microbiota by means of shotgun meta-omics. Here, we selected a cohort of healthy subjects from an indigenous and monitored Sardinian population to analyze their gut microbiota using both shotgun metagenomics and shotgun metaproteomics. We found a considerable divergence between genetic potential and functional activity of the human healthy gut microbiota, in spite of a quite comparable taxonomic structure revealed by the two approaches. Investigation of inter-individual variability of taxonomic features revealed Bacteroides and Akkermansia as remarkably conserved and variable in abundance within the population, respectively. Firmicutes-driven butyrogenesis (mainly due to Faecalibacterium spp.) was shown to be the functional activity with the higher expression rate and the lower inter-individual variability in the study cohort, highlighting the key importance of the biosynthesis of this microbial by-product for the gut homeostasis. The taxon-specific contribution to functional activities and metabolic tasks was also examined, giving insights into the peculiar role of several gut microbiota members in carbohydrate metabolism (including polysaccharide degradation, glycan transport, glycolysis and short-chain fatty acid production). In conclusion, our results provide useful indications regarding the main functions actively exerted by the gut microbiota members of a healthy human cohort, and support metaproteomics as a valuable approach to investigate the functional role of the gut microbiota in health and disease.

Project description:The gut microbiota plays an important role in host health. Microbiota dysbiosis has been implicated in the global epidemic of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and could impair host metabolism by noxious metabolites. It has been well established that the gut microbiota is shaped by host immune factors. However, the effect of T cells on the gut microbiota is yet unknown. Here, we performed a metagenomic whole-genome shotgun sequencing (mWGS) study of the microbiota of TCRb-/- mice, which lack alpha/beta T cells.

Project description:The composition of the gut microbiota is directly associated with response to checkpoint inhibitors in cancer. How diet impacts the gut microbiota and downstream immune response to cancer remains unclear. Here, we show that consumption of a common artificial sweetener, sucralose, supports microbial dysbiosis, restricts T cell metabolism and function, and limits immunotherapy response in cancer. Microbial dysbiosis is associated with a reduction in Arginine, and amino acid supplementation or fecal microbiome transfer completely restores T cell function and immunotherapy response. Thus, artificial sweetener consumption destabilizes the gut microbiota, resulting in compromised T cell function and ablated immunotherapy response in cancer.
