Project description:The goal of this study was to understand the link between maternal oral dysbiosis and the gut health of offspring. We demonstrate that maternal oral dysbiosis can have lasting health impacts on offspring. Ligature-induced periodontitis in mothers promotes the expansion of oral pathobionts in the mouth, which are transmitted to the infant gut, rendering offspring more susceptible to enteritis. Notably, although these maternal oral pathobionts are eradicated as the microbiota matures, the imprinted susceptibility to enteritis persists into adulthood.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is closely related to gut dysbiosis. We investigated the effects of imbalanced gut microbiota on the progression of intestinal adenoma in Apcmin/+ mice model using fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Administration of feces from CRC patients increased tumor proliferation and decreased apoptosis in tumor cells. Abnormal expression of genes related to Wnt-protein binding and lipid metabolic process was observed.

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.

Project description:Background: Schizophrenia (SZ) is a chronic, severe mental disorder that presents significant challenges to diagnosis and effective treatment. Emerging evidence suggests that gut microbiota may play a role in the disease's pathogenesis. However, fewer studies have directly investigated the potential links between oral microbiota and SZ. Purpose: This study aimed to explore the relationship between salivary microbiota dysbiosis and SZ, examining microbial and metabolic alterations that may contribute to SZ pathophysiology. Methods: Salivary samples from 30 hospitalized patients diagosed with SZ and 10 healthy controls were collected. The microbial and metabolic profiles were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metabolomic profiling. Clinical parameters, including oral health status, were also evaluated to minimize variability in sampling. Results: Patients with SZ exhibited significantly poorer oral health compared to healthy controls, with more missing teeth and worse periodontal status. Microbiota sequencing revealed notable alterations in the overall structure and composition of the salivary microbiome in SZ patients, characterized by increased abundance of specific genera such as Neisseria and Porphyromonas. Metabolomic analysis indicated significant differences between the SZ and control groups, with upregulation of key metabolic pathways, including “β-alanine metabolism” and “vitamin digestion and absorption”. Correlations between microbial dysbiosis and elevated levels of certain metabolites, such as L-methionine sulfoxide (L-MetO) and tyramine, were observed, suggesting links to oxidative stress. Conclusion: The study highlights the presence of significant dysbiosis and metabolic dysfunction in the salivary microbiota of SZ patients, suggesting that alterations in the oral microbiome may contribute to SZ pathogenesis. These results provide new insights into potential diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for SZ. Further studies with larger sample sizes are required to validate these findings.

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:Gut dysbiosis is closely involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, it remains unclear whether IBD-associated gut dysbiosis plays a primary role in disease manifestation or is merely secondary to intestinal inflammation. Here, we established a humanized gnotobiotic (hGB) mouse system to assess the functional role of gut dysbiosis associated with two types of IBD - Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). In order to explore the functional impact of dysbiotic microbiota in IBD patients on host immune responses, we analyzed gene expression profiles in colonic mucosa of hGB mice colonized with healty (HC), CD, and UC microbiota.

Project description:The larynx is essential for swallowing, breathing, coughing, and voice production, supported by its unique microbial and immunological environment. Our previous research highlighted the role of resident laryngeal microbiota in shaping local immune responses. With growing interest in the gut-lung axis—the bidirectional communication between gut and respiratory immunity—the potential influence of gut microbiota on laryngeal immunity warrants exploration. We hypothesized that a gut-larynx axis may exist, where both resident laryngeal and gut microbiota contribute to immune modulation in the larynx. To investigate this, we treated conventionally raised, wild-type C57BL/6J mice with an oral antibiotic regimen known to disrupt gut microbiota, comparing them to untreated controls. Following treatment, the gut microbiota was significantly disrupted, while the laryngeal microbiota remained largely unchanged. However, antibiotic-treated mice exhibited marked changes in epithelial and immune cell proportions, as well as fibroblasts. Differential gene expression across cell types highlighted pathways related to epithelial barrier integrity, immune signaling, and bacterial response. Additionally, gut dysbiosis affected gene regulatory networks, with the activity of regulons Etv4(+), Irf3(+), Hltf(+), Mga(+), and Nfil3(+) showing significant changes. Notably, cell-cell communication was also altered, especially in immune-epithelial interactions, with integrin-mediated signaling emerging as a key ligand-receptor pathway in these intercellular communications. These findings suggest that gut and laryngeal microbiota may work synergistically to modulate immune responses in the larynx, underscoring the importance of considering gut-larynx interactions in studies of respiratory immunity.

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.
