The Microbiota Continuum Along the Female Reproductive Tract and Its Relation to Uterine-Related Diseases
ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-017-00901-0 OPEN The microbiota continuum along the female reproductive tract and its relation to uterine-related diseases Chen Chen1,2, Xiaolei Song1,3, Weixia Wei4,5, Huanzi Zhong 1,2,6, Juanjuan Dai4,5, Zhou Lan1, Fei Li1,2,3, Xinlei Yu1,2, Qiang Feng1,7, Zirong Wang1, Hailiang Xie1, Xiaomin Chen1, Chunwei Zeng1, Bo Wen1,2, Liping Zeng4,5, Hui Du4,5, Huiru Tang4,5, Changlu Xu1,8, Yan Xia1,3, Huihua Xia1,2,9, Huanming Yang1,10, Jian Wang1,10, Jun Wang1,11, Lise Madsen 1,6,12, Susanne Brix 13, Karsten Kristiansen1,6, Xun Xu1,2, Junhua Li 1,2,9,14, Ruifang Wu4,5 & Huijue Jia 1,2,9,11 Reports on bacteria detected in maternal fluids during pregnancy are typically associated with adverse consequences, and whether the female reproductive tract harbours distinct microbial communities beyond the vagina has been a matter of debate. Here we systematically sample the microbiota within the female reproductive tract in 110 women of reproductive age, and examine the nature of colonisation by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and cultivation. We find distinct microbial communities in cervical canal, uterus, fallopian tubes and perito- neal fluid, differing from that of the vagina. The results reflect a microbiota continuum along the female reproductive tract, indicative of a non-sterile environment. We also identify microbial taxa and potential functions that correlate with the menstrual cycle or are over- represented in subjects with adenomyosis or infertility due to endometriosis. The study provides insight into the nature of the vagino-uterine microbiome, and suggests that sur- veying the vaginal or cervical microbiota might be useful for detection of common diseases in the upper reproductive tract. -

Insights Into 6S RNA in Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) Pablo Gabriel Cataldo1,Paulklemm2, Marietta Thüring2, Lucila Saavedra1, Elvira Maria Hebert1, Roland K
Cataldo et al. BMC Genomic Data (2021) 22:29 BMC Genomic Data https://doi.org/10.1186/s12863-021-00983-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Insights into 6S RNA in lactic acid bacteria (LAB) Pablo Gabriel Cataldo1,PaulKlemm2, Marietta Thüring2, Lucila Saavedra1, Elvira Maria Hebert1, Roland K. Hartmann2 and Marcus Lechner2,3* Abstract Background: 6S RNA is a regulator of cellular transcription that tunes the metabolism of cells. This small non-coding RNA is found in nearly all bacteria and among the most abundant transcripts. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitute a group of microorganisms with strong biotechnological relevance, often exploited as starter cultures for industrial products through fermentation. Some strains are used as probiotics while others represent potential pathogens. Occasional reports of 6S RNA within this group already indicate striking metabolic implications. A conceivable idea is that LAB with 6S RNA defects may metabolize nutrients faster, as inferred from studies of Echerichia coli.Thismay accelerate fermentation processes with the potential to reduce production costs. Similarly, elevated levels of secondary metabolites might be produced. Evidence for this possibility comes from preliminary findings regarding the production of surfactin in Bacillus subtilis, which has functions similar to those of bacteriocins. The prerequisite for its potential biotechnological utility is a general characterization of 6S RNA in LAB. Results: We provide a genomic annotation of 6S RNA throughout the Lactobacillales order. It laid the foundation for a bioinformatic characterization of common 6S RNA features. This covers secondary structures, synteny, phylogeny, and product RNA start sites. The canonical 6S RNA structure is formed by a central bulge flanked by helical arms and a template site for product RNA synthesis. -

A prominent hypothesis, mostly based on preCliniCal studies, is that individual differences in the gut miCrobiome Composition and drug- induced dysbiosis may be associated with vulnerability to psychiatriC disorders including substance use disorder. -
Microbial Interactions Within the Cheese Ecosystem and Their Application to Improve Quality and Safety

The assortment, numbers and proportions of LAB and other microbial biotypes making up the microbiota of cheese are affected by a range of biotic and abiotic factors. Cooperative and competitive interactions between distinct members of the microbiota may occur, with rheological, organoleptic and safety implications for ripened cheese. However, the mechanistic details of these interactions, and their functional consequences, are largely unknown. Acquiring such knowledge is important if we are to predict when fermentations will be successful and understand the causes of technological failures. The experimental use of “synthetic” microbial communities might help throw light on the dynamics of different cheese microbiota components and the interplay Citation: Mayo, B.; Rodríguez, J.; between them. Although synthetic communities cannot reproduce entirely the natural microbial di- Vázquez, L.; Flórez, A.B. Microbial versity in cheese, they could help reveal basic principles governing the interactions between microbial Interactions within the Cheese types and perhaps allow multi-species microbial communities to be developed as functional starters. -

Al-Haider1, Khalidah S. Al-Niaeem2* and Amjed K. Resen2 1College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Al-Qasim Green, Iraq. 2*Department of Fisheries and Marine Resources, College of Agriculture, University of Basrah, Basrah, Iraq. Abstract This study was carried out to investigate the occurrence of potentially pathogenic species of Gram-positive bacterium in common carp cultivated in floating cages at Al-Hilla river. A total of 144 fishes were collected from fish farms during the period December 2017- November 2018. Bacteria were identified using the VITEK 2 system and selected biochemical tests. Here we report the first fish’s case of gills due to F. hominis, found in common carp cultivated in floating cages at Al-Hilla river. Antibiotic susceptibility (17 antimicrobial) was using the VITEK 2 system. Significant sensitive was produced only by Ciprofloxacin, Ertapenem and Levofloxacin, when tested in vitro. The plant species susceptibility test was conducted using disc diffusion method on blood agar. Procedure was based on the standardized disc agar diffusion method for antimicrobial susceptibility tests. After incubation, the diameter of the zone of inhibition was measured to determine the sensitivity of the six plant species extracted with alcohol in four different concentrations (10, 15, 20 and 25%). The potential of plant extracts to inhibit the infection caused by F. -

Translational Psychiatry (2021) 11:328 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41398-021-01443-2 Translational Psychiatry ARTICLE Open Access A diet high in sugar and fat influences neurotransmitter metabolism and then affects brainfunctionbyalteringthegutmicrobiota Yinrui Guo 1,XiangxiangZhu2,3,MiaoZeng2,4,LongkaiQi2, Xiaocui Tang2, Dongdong Wang2,MeiZhang4, Yizhen Xie2, Hongye Li3,XinYang5 and Diling Chen 2 Abstract Gut microbiota (GM) metabolites can modulate the physiology of the host brain through the gut–brain axis. We wished to discover connections between the GM, neurotransmitters, and brain function using direct and indirect methods. A diet with increased amounts of sugar and fat (high-sugar and high-fat (HSHF) diet) was employed to disturb the host GM. Then, we monitored the effect on pathology, neurotransmitter metabolism, transcription, and brain circularRNAs (circRNAs) profiles in mice. Administration of a HSHF diet-induced dysbacteriosis, damaged the intestinal tract, changed the neurotransmitter metabolism in the intestine and brain, and then caused changes in brain function and circRNA profiles. The GM byproduct trimethylamine-n-oxide could degrade some circRNAs. The basal level of the GM decided the conversion rate of choline to trimethylamine-n-oxide. A change in the abundance of a single bacterial strain could influence neurotransmitter secretion. These findings suggest that a new link between metabolism, brain circRNAs, and GM. Our data could enlarge the “microbiome–transcriptome” linkage library and provide more information on the gut–brain axis. Hence, our findings could provide more information on the interplay fi 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; between the gut and brain to aid the identi cation of potential therapeutic markers and mechanistic solutions to complex problems encountered in studies of pathology, toxicology, diet, and nutrition development.
