Project description:Background: As a worldwide threat to mental health, depression affects about 322 million people globally. Recently, the role of gut microbiota dysbiosis on the pathogenesis of depression has received widespread attention, but the underlying mechanism remains elusive.Results: Corticosterone (CORT)-treated mice showed depressive-like behaviors, a reduction in hippocampal neurogenesis, and an altered composition of gut microbiota (GM). Fecal microbial transplantation (FMT) from CORT-treated mice transferred depressive-like phenotypes and their dominant GM, especially bifidobacterium and lactobacillus, to the recipients. Fecal metabolic profiling showed that the relative abundances of fecal ceramides were significantly increased in CORT-treated and the recipient mice. Metagenomic sequencing exposed that bifidobacterium and lactobacillus might be responsible for gut ceramides production in CORT-treated mice. We then found that treatment with ceramides via oral gavage was sufficient to recapitulate the depressive-like phenotypes in wild -type mice. Finally, RNA-sequencing data exposed that most of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between ceramides-treated mice and the control group were enriched in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway. Conclusion: We conclude that chronic exposure to CORT leads to an altered GM composition and consequent ceramides production, thus leading to subtle mitochondrial OXPHOS dysfunction in hippocampus, which may contribute to the development of depressive disorders.

Project description:Major depressive disorder is caused by gene-environment interactions and the gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in the development of depression. However, the mechanisms by which the gut microbiota modulates depression remain elusive. Herein, we detected the differentially expressed hippocampal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) between mice inoculated with gut microbiota from major depressive disorder patients or healthy controls, to identify the effects of gut microbiota-dysbiosis on gene regulation patterns at the transcriptome level. We also performed functional analysis to explore the microbial-regulated pathological mechanisms of depression. Two hundred mRNAs, 358 lncRNAs and 4 miRNAs were differentially expressed between the two groups. Functional analysis of these differentially expressed mRNAs indicated dysregulated inflammatory response to be the primary pathological change. Intersecting the differentially expressed mRNAs with targets of differentially expressed miRNAs identified 47 intersected mRNAs, which were mainly related to neurodevelopment. Additionally, we constructed a microbial-regulated lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on RNA-RNA interactions. According to the competitive endogenous RNA hypothesis, two neurodevelopmental ceRNA sub-networks implicating in depression were identified. This study provides new understanding of the pathogenesis of depression induced by gut microbiota-dysbiosis and may act as a theoretical basis for the development of gut microbiota-based antidepressants.

Project description:Gut microbiota dysbiosis characterizes systemic metabolic alteration, yet its causality is debated. To address this issue, we transplanted antibiotic-free conventional wild-type mice with either dysbiotic (“obese”) or eubiotic (“lean”) gut microbiota and fed them either a NC or a 72%HFD. We report that, on NC, obese gut microbiota transplantation reduces hepatic gluconeogenesis with decreased hepatic PEPCK activity, compared to non-transplanted mice. Of note, this phenotype is blunted in conventional NOD2KO mice. By contrast, lean microbiota transplantation did not affect hepatic gluconeogenesis. In addition, obese microbiota transplantation changed both gut microbiota and microbiome of recipient mice. Interestingly, hepatic gluconeogenesis, PEPCK and G6Pase activity were reduced even once mice transplanted with the obese gut microbiota were fed a 72%HFD, together with reduced fed glycaemia and adiposity compared to non-transplanted mice. Notably, changes in gut microbiota and microbiome induced by the transplantation were still detectable on 72%HFD. Finally, we report that obese gut microbiota transplantation may impact on hepatic metabolism and even prevent HFD-increased hepatic gluconeogenesis. Our findings may provide a new vision of gut microbiota dysbiosis, useful for a better understanding of the aetiology of metabolic diseases. all livers are from NC-fed mice only.

Project description:The gut microbiota plays a vital role in maintaining the physiological function of host health and the pathogenesis of various diseases. However, its relationship with maternal age-associated decline in oocyte quality remains elusive. Here, we report that establishment of gut microbiota from young donors in aged mice by fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an effective method to rejuvenate the quality of maternally aged oocytes. Specifically, young gut microbiota promoted the ovulation and maturation of aged oocytes, and inhibited occurrence of cytoplasm fragmentation and spindle/chromosome abnormalities, hence enhancing the oocyte quality and female fertility. By integrating metagenome and untargeted metabolome of intestinal digesta, as well as targeted metabolome of ovaries and micro-transcriptome of oocytes, we identified that Bacteroides_caecimuris-modulated glutamic acid levels mediated the restorative effects of young gut microbiota on the aged oocytes through strengthening the mitochondria function. In addition, we demonstrated that in vivo supplementation of glutamic acid also enhanced the quality of aged oocytes, and the improvement of oocyte quality by glutamic acid was conserved across species. Altogether, our findings highlight the importance of gut microbiota in the oocyte aging and provide potential improvement strategies for age-related decline in oocyte quality and female fertility.
