Sex Differences in Colonization of Gut Microbiota from a Man with Short
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Sex differences in colonization of gut microbiota from a man with short-term vegetarian and inulin- Received: 28 June 2016 Accepted: 11 October 2016 supplemented diet in germ-free Published: 31 October 2016 mice Jing-jing Wang1, Jing Wang2, Xiao-yan Pang2, Li-ping Zhao2, Ling Tian1,* & Xing-peng Wang1,* Gnotobiotic mouse model is generally used to evaluate the efficacy of gut microbiota. Sex differences of gut microbiota are acknowledged, yet the effect of recipient’s gender on the bacterial colonization remains unclear. Here we inoculated male and female germ-free C57BL/6J mice with fecal bacteria from a man with short-term vegetarian and inulin-supplemented diet. We sequenced bacterial 16S rRNA genes V3-V4 region from donor’s feces and recipient’s colonic content. Shannon diversity index showed female recipients have higher bacteria diversity than males. Weighted UniFrac principal coordinates analysis revealed the overall structures of male recipient’s gut microbiota were significantly separated from those of females, and closer to the donor. Redundancy analysis identified 46 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) differed between the sexes. The relative abundance of 13 OTUs were higher in males, such as Parabacteroides distasonis and Blautia faecis, while 33 OTUs were overrepresented in females, including Clostridium groups and Escherichia fergusonii/Shigella sonnei. Moreover, the interactions of these differential OTUs were sexually distinct. These findings demonstrated that the intestine of male and female mice preferred to accommodate microbiota differently. Therefore, it is necessary to designate the gender of gnotobiotic mice for complete evaluation of modulatory effects of gut microbiota from human feces upon diseases. -

Computational Methods for the Identification and Quantification Of
Computational methods for the identification and quantification of microbial organisms in metagenomes Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktors der Naturwissenschaften (Dr. rer. nat.) am Fachbereich Mathematik und Informatik der Freien Universit¨atBerlin von Martin Michael Serenus Lindner Berlin August 2014 Betreuer: PD Dr. Bernhard Renard Erstgutachter: PD Dr. Bernhard Renard Zweitgutachter: Jun.-Prof. Dr. Tobias Marschall Tag der Disputation: 15. Oktober 2014 ii Abstract Metagenomics allows analyzing genomic material taken directly from the environ- ment. In contrast to classical genomics, no purification of single organisms is per- formed and therefore the extracted genomic material reflects the composition of the original microbial community. The possible applications of metagenomics are mani- fold and the field has become increasingly popular due to the recent improvements in sequencing technologies. One of the most fundamental challenges in metagenomics is the identification and quantification of organisms in a sample, called taxonomic profiling. In this work, we present approaches to the following current problems in taxo- nomic profiling: First, differentiation between closely related organisms in metage- nomic samples is still challenging. Second, the identification of novel organisms in metagenomic samples poses problems to current taxonomic profiling methods, especially when there is no suitable reference genome available. The contribution of this thesis comprises three major projects. First, we introduce the Genome Abundance Similarity Correction (GASiC) algorithm, a method that allows differentiating between and quantifying highly similar microbial organisms in a metagenomic sample. The method first estimates the similarities between the available reference genomes with a simulation approach. Based on the similarities, GASiC corrects the observed abundances of each reference genome using a non- negative lasso approach. -
Microbiota-Directed Fibre Activates Both Targeted and Secondary

In this context, we have tailored an acetylated galactoglucomannan (AcGGM) fibre to match unique enzymatic capabilities of Roseburia and Faecalibacterium species, both renowned butyrate-producing gut commensals. Here, we test the accuracy of AcGGM within the complex endogenous gut microbiome of pigs, wherein we resolve 355 metagenome-assembled genomes together with quantitative metaproteomes. In AcGGM-fed pigs, both target populations differentially express AcGGM-specific polysaccharide utilization loci, including novel, mannan-specific esterases that are critical to its deconstruction. However, AcGGM-inclusion also manifests a “butterfly effect”, whereby numerous metabolic changes and interdependent cross-feeding pathways occur in neighboring non-mannanolytic populations that produce short-chain fatty acids. Our findings show how intricate structural features and acetylation patterns of dietary fibre can be customized to specific bacterial populations, with potential to create greater modulatory effects at large. 1 Faculty of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Food Science, Norwegian University of Life Sciences, 1432 Ås, Norway. -

Measures altering gut microbiota like oral intake of probiotics or berberine (BBR), a bacteriostatic agent, merit metabolic homoeostasis. We hence conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled trial with newly diagnosed T2D patients from 20 centres in China. Four-hundred- nine eligible participants were enroled, randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) and completed a 12-week treatment of either BBR-alone, probiotics+BBR, probiotics-alone, or placebo, after a one-week run-in of gentamycin pretreatment. The changes in glycated haemoglobin, as the primary outcome, in the probiotics+BBR (least-squares mean [95% CI], −1.04[−1.19, −0.89]%) and BBR-alone group (−0.99[−1.16, −0.83]%) were significantly greater than that in the placebo and probiotics-alone groups (−0.59[−0.75, −0.44]%, −0.53[−0.68, −0.37]%, P < 0.001). BBR treatment induced more gastrointestinal side effects. -

However, despite its importance, the genomic and biological adaptations available at the end of the article underpinning symbiont transmission remain poorly understood. The Firmicutes are a dominant phylum within the intestinal microbiota that are capable of producing resistant endospores that maintain viability within the environment and germinate within the intestine to facilitate transmission. However, the impact of host transmission on the evolutionary and adaptive processes within the intestinal microbiota remains unknown. Results: We analyze 1358 genomes of Firmicutes bacteria derived from host and environment-associated habitats. Characterization of genomes as spore-forming based on the presence of sporulation-predictive genes reveals multiple losses of sporulation in many distinct lineages. Loss of sporulation in gut Firmicutes is associated with features of host-adaptation such as genome reduction and specialized metabolic capabilities. Consistent with these data, analysis of 9966 gut metagenomes from adults around the world demonstrates that bacteria now incapable of sporulation are more abundant within individuals but less prevalent in the human population compared to spore-forming bacteria. -

Turnbaugh4,14 ✉ Published online: 23 June 2021 Check for updates Diet is a major factor that shapes the gut microbiome1, but the consequences of diet-induced changes in the microbiome for host pathophysiology remain poorly understood. We conducted a randomized human intervention study using a very-low-calorie diet (NCT01105143). Although metabolic health was improved, severe calorie restriction led to a decrease in bacterial abundance and restructuring of the gut microbiome. Transplantation of post-diet microbiota to mice decreased their body weight and adiposity relative to mice that received pre-diet microbiota. Weight loss was associated with impaired nutrient absorption and enrichment in Clostridioides difcile, which was consistent with a decrease in bile acids and was sufcient to replicate metabolic phenotypes in mice in a toxin-dependent manner. These results emphasize the importance of diet–microbiome interactions in modulating host energy balance and the need to understand the role of diet in the interplay between pathogenic and benefcial symbionts. Very-low-calorie diets (VLCDs) involve extreme calorie restriction Data Fig. 1g). Glucose regulation reverted after CONVD despite the (approximately 800 kcal per day, typically in liquid form2). -
