Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is rapidly becoming the most common liver disease worldwide, yet the pathogenesis of NAFLD is only partially understood. Here, we investigated the role of the gut bacteria in NAFLD by stimulating the gut bacteria via feeding mice the fermentable dietary fiber guar gum and suppressing the gut bacteria via chronic oral administration of antibiotics. Guar gum feeding profoundly altered the gut microbiota composition, in parallel with reduced diet-induced obesity and improved glucose tolerance. Strikingly, despite reducing adipose tissue mass and inflammation, guar gum enhanced hepatic inflammation and fibrosis, concurrent with markedly elevated plasma and hepatic bile acid levels. Consistent with a role of elevated bile acids in the liver phenotype, treatment of mice with taurocholic acid stimulated hepatic inflammation and fibrosis. In contrast to guar gum, chronic oral administration of antibiotics effectively suppressed the gut bacteria, decreased portal secondary bile acid levels, and attenuated hepatic inflammation and fibrosis. Neither guar gum or antibiotics influenced plasma lipopolysaccharide levels. In conclusion, our data indicate a causal link between changes in gut microbiota and hepatic inflammation and fibrosis in a mouse model of NAFLD, possibly via alterations in bile acids.

Project description:Background & Aims: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NALFLD)-associated changes in gut microbiota are important drivers of disease progression toward fibrosis. Therefore, reversing microbiota alterations could ameliorate NAFLD progression. Oat beta-glucan, a non-digestible polysaccharides, has shown promising therapeutic effects on hyperlipidemia associated with NAFLD, but its impact on gut microbiota and most importantly NAFLD fibrosis remains unknown. Methods: We performed detailed metabolic phenotyping including body composition, glucose tolerance, and lipid metabolism as well as comprehensive characterization of the gut-liver axis in a western-style diet (WSD)-induced model of NAFLD and assessed the effect of a beta-glucan intervention on early and advanced liver disease. Gut microbiota was modulated using broad-spectrum antibiotic (Abx) treatment. Results: Oat beta-glucan supplementation did not affect WSD-induced body weight gain, glucose intolerance, and the metabolic phenotype remained largely unaffected. Interestingly, oat beta-glucan dampened NAFLD inflammation, associated with significantly reduced monocyte-derived macrophages (MoMFs) infiltration, fibroinflammatory gene expression, and strongly reduced fibrosis development. Mechanistically, this protective effect was not mediated by changes in bile acid composition or signaling, but was dependent on gut microbiota and was lost upon Abx treatment. Specifically, oat beta-glucan partially reversed unfavorable changes in gut microbiota, resulting in an expansion of protective taxa, including Ruminococcus, and Lactobacillus followed by reduced translocation of TLR ligands. Conclusions: Our findings identify oat beta-glucan as a highly efficacious food supplement that dampens inflammation and fibrosis development in diet-induced NAFLD. These results, along with its favorable dietary profile, suggest that it may be a cost-effective and well-tolerated approach to preventing NAFLD progression and should be assessed in clinical studies.

Project description:Air pollution, particularly environmental tobacco smoke, poses significant health risks, especially to pregnant women and their infants. This study explores the difference in response to cigarette smoke (CS) exposure between pregnant and non-pregnant mice by examining lung transcriptomic profiles, neutrophil numbers, key mediators of neutrophil chemotaxis, and gut microbiota composition. Pregnant and non-pregnant mice were exposed to either air or CS. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was analyzed for inflammatory cells and mediators. RNA sequencing was conducted on lung tissue to identify transcriptomic alterations.

Project description:Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) induces alterations in the gut microbiota composition, significantly impacting neuroinflammation post-ICH. However, the impact of gut microbiota absence on neuroinflammation following ICH-induced brain injury remain unexplored. Here, we observed that the gut microbiota absence was associated with reduced neuroinflammation, alleviated neurological dysfunction, and mitigated gut barrier dysfunction post-ICH. In contrast, recolonization of microbiota from ICH-induced SPF mice by transplantation of fecal microbiota (FMT) exacerbated brain injury and gut impairment post-ICH. Additionally, microglia with transcriptional changes mediated the protective effects of gut microbiota absence on brain injury, with Apoe emerging as a hub gene. Subsequently, Apoe deficiency in peri-hematomal microglia was associated with improved brain injury. Finally, we revealed that gut microbiota influence brain injury and gut impairment via gut-derived short-chain fatty acids (SCFA).

Project description:Periodontitis increases the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the precise mechanisms are unclear. Here, gut dysbiosis induced by orally administered Porphyromonas gingivalis, a representative periodontopathic bacterium, was implicated in the deterioration of NAFLD pathology. C57BL/6 mice were administered with the vehicle, P. gingivalis or Prevotella intermedia, with weaker periodontal pathogenicity, followed by feeding on a choline-deficient, high fat diet (CDAHFD60). CDAHFD60 feeding induced hepatic steatosis, and combined bacterial administration further aggravated NAFLD pathology with increased fibrosis. Liver gene expression analyses revealed that genes involved in the NAFLD pathology were perturbed with distinctive expression profiles induced by different bacteria. These differences may be due to quantitative and qualitative differences in the influx of gut bacterial products because the serum endotoxin level, gut microbiota composition, and serum metabolite profile caused by ingested P. intermedia and P. gingivalis were different. These findings provide insights into mechanisms linking periodontitis and NAFLD.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a sexually dimorphic disease influenced by dietary factors. Here, we assess the metabolic and hepatic effects of dietary amino acid (AA) source in Western diet (WD)-induced NAFLD in male and female mice. The AA source was either casein or a free AA mixture mimicking the composition of casein. As expected, males fed a casein-based WD displayed glucose intolerance, fasting hyperglycemia, and insulin-resistance and developed NAFLD associated with changes in hepatic gene expression and dysbiosis. In contrast, males fed the AA-based WD showed no steatosis, a similar gene expression profile as males fed a control diet, and a distinct microbiota composition compared to males fed a casein-based WD. Females were protected against WD-induced liver damage, hepatic gene expression, and gut microbiota changes regardless of the AA source. Thus, free dietary AA intake prevents the unhealthy metabolic outcomes of a WD in a sex-specific manner.

Project description:Advanced age is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, which is usually referred to as inflammaging. Elderly are also known to have an altered gut microbiota composition. However, whether inflammaging is a cause or consequence of an altered gut microbiota composition is not clear. In this study gut microbiota from young or old conventional mice was transferred to young germ-free mice. Four weeks after gut microbiota transfer immune cell populations in spleen, Peyer’s patches, and mesenteric lymph nodes from conventionalized germ-free mice were analyzed by flow cytometry. In addition, whole-genome gene expression in the ileum was analyzed by microarray. Gut microbiota composition of donor and recipient mice was analyzed with 16S rDNA sequencing. Here we show by transferring aged microbiota to young germ-free mice that certain bacterial species within the aged microbiota promote inflammaging. This effect was associated with lower levels of Akkermansia and higher levels of TM7 bacteria and Proteobacteria in the aged microbiota after transfer. The aged microbiota promoted inflammation in the small intestine in the germ-free mice and enhanced leakage of inflammatory bacterial components into the circulation was observed. Moreover, the aged microbiota promoted increased T cell activation in the systemic compartment. In conclusion, these data indicate that the gut microbiota from old mice contributes to inflammaging after transfer to young germ-free mice.

Project description:This trial evaluates the effects a moderate-to-vigorous exercise intervention has on the bacterial make-up of the gastrointestinal tract (gut microbiota) in survivors of stage II-III colorectal cancer (CRC). Data shows that the gut microbiota composition and function may be drivers of CRC. High levels of exercise are associated with improved CRC prognosis and survival. While data suggests that exercise has the potential to influence gut microbiota composition and function, it is not known whether these effects contribute to improved CRC prognosis. This clinical trial evaluates the effects an exercise intervention has on gut microbiota and how these effects relate to CRC progression and patient-reported outcomes.
