In this study, 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to identify strains to the species level that were originally classified as Prevotella or Por - phyromonas spp by conventional phenotype assessment methods. Of 264 qual - ified strains from ceftiofur clinical trials, 241 isolates were definitively identified by 16S rRNA sequencing as Porphyromonas levii . Similarly, of 275 qualified strains from tulathromycin clinical trials, 156 isolates were definitively identified by 16S rRNA sequencing as P. levii . The predominance of P. levii in this study supports the role of this organism as an associative agent of bovine foot rot and may have implications for routine laboratory diagnosis. *Research sponsored by Pfizer Animal Health, Inc. †Correspondence should be sent to Mr. Zurenko: phone, 269-372-3683; fax, 269-353-5567; e-mail, gezurenko@ micromyx.com.

The Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes (F/B) ratio is widely accepted to have an important influence in maintaining normal intestinal homeostasis. Increased or decreased F/B ratio is regarded as dysbiosis, whereby the former is usually observed with obesity, and the latter with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Probiotics as live microorganisms can confer health benefits to the host when administered in adequate amounts. There is considerable evidence of their nutritional and immunosuppressive properties including reports that elucidate the association of probiotics with the F/B ratio, obesity, and IBD. Orally administered probiotics can contribute to the restoration of dysbiotic microbiota and to the prevention of obesity or IBD. However, as the effects of different probiotics on the F/B ratio differ, selecting the appropriate species or mixture is crucial. The most commonly tested probiotics for modifying the F/B ratio and treating obesity and IBD are from the genus Lactobacillus. In this paper, we review the effects of probiotics on the F/B ratio that lead to weight loss or immunosuppression.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Microbiota of human precolostrum and its potential role as a source of bacteria to the infant mouth Received: 24 October 2018 Lorena Ruiz1,2, Rodrigo Bacigalupe3, Cristina García-Carral2,4, Alba Boix-Amoros3, Accepted: 2 April 2019 Héctor Argüello5, Camilla Beatriz Silva2,6, Maria de los Angeles Checa7, Alex Mira3 & Published: xx xx xxxx Juan M. Rodríguez 2 Human milk represents a source of bacteria for the initial establishment of the oral (and gut) microbiomes in the breastfed infant, however, the origin of bacteria in human milk remains largely unknown. While some evidence points towards a possible endogenous enteromammary route, other authors have suggested that bacteria in human milk are contaminants from the skin or the breastfed infant mouth. In this work 16S rRNA sequencing and bacterial culturing and isolation was performed to analyze the microbiota on maternal precolostrum samples, collected from pregnant women before delivery, and on oral samples collected from the corresponding infants. The structure of both ecosystems demonstrated a high proportion of taxa consistently shared among ecosystems, Streptococcus spp. and Staphylococcus spp. being the most abundant. Whole genome sequencing on those isolates that, belonging to the same species, were isolated from both the maternal and infant samples in the same mother-infant pair, evidenced that in 8 out of 10 pairs both isolates were >99.9% identical at nucleotide level. The presence of typical oral bacteria in precolostrum before contact with the newborn indicates that they are not a contamination from the infant, and suggests that at least some oral bacteria reach the infant’s mouth through breastfeeding.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Structural and functional characterization of shaft, anchor, and tip proteins of the Mfa1 fmbria Received: 11 May 2017 Accepted: 12 January 2018 from the periodontal pathogen Published: xx xx xxxx Porphyromonas gingivalis Michael Hall1, Yoshiaki Hasegawa2, Fuminobu Yoshimura2 & Karina Persson1 Very little is known about how fmbriae of Bacteroidetes bacteria are assembled. To shed more light on this process, we solved the crystal structures of the shaft protein Mfa1, the regulatory protein Mfa2, and the tip protein Mfa3 from the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis. Together these build up part of the Mfa1 fmbria and represent three of the fve proteins, Mfa1-5, encoded by the mfa1 gene cluster. Mfa1, Mfa2 and Mfa3 have the same overall fold i.e., two β-sandwich domains. Upon polymerization, the frst β-strand of the shaft or tip protein is removed by indigenous proteases. Although the resulting void is expected to be flled by a donor-strand from another fmbrial protein, the mechanism by which it does so is still not established. In contrast, the frst β-strand in Mfa2, the anchoring protein, is frmly attached by a disulphide bond and is not cleaved. Based on the structural information, we created multiple mutations in P. gingivalis and analysed their efect on fmbrial polymerization and assembly in vivo. Collectively, these data suggest an important role for the C-terminal tail of Mfa1, but not of Mfa3, afecting both polymerization and maturation of downstream fmbrial proteins. Humans co-exist with microorganisms that play signifcant roles in our biology. Te largest bacterial population is found in the gut, where species of Bacteroidetes are the most common Gram-negative anaerobes1.

  • Type of the Paper (Article
    Supplementary Materials S1 Clinical details recorded, Sampling, DNA Extraction of Microbial DNA, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, Bioinformatic pipeline, Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction Clinical details recorded In addition to the microbial specimen, the following clinical features were also recorded for each patient: age, gender, infection type (primary or secondary, meaning initial or revision treatment), pain, tenderness to percussion, sinus tract and size of the periapical radiolucency, to determine the correlation between these features and microbial findings (Table 1). Prevalence of all clinical signs and symptoms (except periapical lesion size) were recorded on a binary scale [0 = absent, 1 = present], while the size of the radiolucency was measured in millimetres by two endodontic specialists on two- dimensional periapical radiographs (Planmeca Romexis, Coventry, UK). Sampling After anaesthesia, the tooth to be treated was isolated with a rubber dam (UnoDent, Essex, UK), and field decontamination was carried out before and after access opening, according to an established protocol, and shown to eliminate contaminating DNA (Data not shown). An access cavity was cut with a sterile bur under sterile saline irrigation (0.9% NaCl, Mölnlycke Health Care, Göteborg, Sweden), with contamination control samples taken. Root canal patency was assessed with a sterile K-file (Dentsply-Sirona, Ballaigues, Switzerland). For non-culture-based analysis, clinical samples were collected by inserting two paper points size 15 (Dentsply Sirona, USA) into the root canal. Each paper point was retained in the canal for 1 min with careful agitation, then was transferred to −80ºC storage immediately before further analysis. Cases of secondary endodontic treatment were sampled using the same protocol, with the exception that specimens were collected after removal of the coronal gutta-percha with Gates Glidden drills (Dentsply-Sirona, Switzerland).

The oral cavity has the second largest microbiota after the intestines, and its open structure creates a special environment. With the development of technology such as next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics, exten- sive in-depth microbiome studies have become possible. They can also be applied in the clinical field in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Many microbiome studies have been performed on oral and systemic diseases, showing a close association between the two. Understanding the oral microbiome and host interaction is expected to provide future directions to explore the functional and metabolic changes in diseases, and to uncover the molecular mechanisms for drug development and treatment that facilitate personalized medicine. The aim of this review was to provide comprehension regarding research trends in oral microbiome studies and establish the link between oral microbiomes and systemic diseases based on the latest technique of genome-wide analysis.
