Allegretti 2 Key Points A higher microbiome load, possibly originating from different body sites, may be playing a pathogenic role in IgA nephropathy. Several microbiome taxonomic differences between patients with IgA nephropathy and healthy controls are observed in blood and stool. Striking differences between the blood and gut microbiome confirm that the blood microbiome does not directly reflect the gut microbiome. Abstract Background IgA nephropathy (IgAN) has been associated with gut dysbiosis, intestinal membrane disruption, and translocation of bacteria into blood. Our study aimed to understand the association of gut and blood microbiomes in patients with IgAN in relation to healthy controls. Methods We conducted a case-control study with 20 patients with progressive IgAN, matched with 20 healthy controls, and analyzed bacterial DNA quantitatively in blood using 16S PCR and qualitatively in blood and stool using 16S metagenomic sequencing. We conducted between-group comparisons as well as comparisons between the blood and gut microbiomes. Results Higher median 16S bacterial DNA in blood was found in the IgAN group compared with the healthy controls group (7410 versus 6030 16S rDNA copies/ml blood, P50.04). a-andb-Diversity in both blood and stool was largely similar between the IgAN and healthy groups. In patients with IgAN, in comparison with healthy controls, we observed higher proportions of the class Coriobacteriia and species of the genera Legionella, Enhydrobacter,andParabacteroides in blood, and species of the genera Bacteroides, Escherichia-Shigella,andsome Ruminococcus in stool. Taxa distribution were markedly different between the blood and stool samples of each subject in both IgAN and healthy groups, without any significant correlation between corresponding gut and blood phyla. Conclusions Important bacterial taxonomic differences, quantitatively in blood and qualitatively in both blood and stool samples, that were detected between IgAN and healthy groups warrant further investigation into their roles in the pathogenesis of IgAN. Although gut bacterial translocation into blood may be one of the potential sources of the blood microbiome, marked taxonomic differences between gut and blood samples in each subject in both groups confirms that the blood microbiome does not directly reflect the gut microbiome. Further research is needed into other possible sites of origin and internal regulation of the blood microbiome.

In this study, natural attenuation and biostimulation of PCBs and microbial communities responsible for PCB transformations were investigated in Ohio River sediments. Natural attenuation of PCBs was negligible in sediments, which was likely attributed to low temperature conditions during most of the year, as well as low amounts of available nitrogen, phosphorus, and organic carbon.

ABSTRACT Current-day metagenomics increasingly requires taxonomic classification of long DNA sequences and metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of unknown microorganisms. We show that the standard best-hit approach often leads to classifications that are too specific. We present tools to classify high- quality metagenomic contigs (Contig Annotation Tool, CAT) and MAGs (Bin Annotation Tool, BAT) and thoroughly benchmark them with simulated metagenomic sequences that are classified against a reference database where related sequences are increasingly removed, thereby simulating increasingly unknown queries. We find that the query sequences are correctly classified at low taxonomic ranks if closely related organisms are present in the reference database, while classifications are made higher in the taxonomy when closely related organisms are absent, thus avoiding spurious classification specificity.

Abstract: (1) Background: The intestinal microbiota plays an essential role in maintaining the host’s health. Dysbiosis of the equine hindgut microbiota can alter the fermentation patterns and cause metabolic disorders. (2) Methods: This study compared the fecal microbiota composition of horses with intestinal disease and their healthy counterparts living in Korea using 16S rRNA sequencing from fecal samples. A total of 52 fecal samples were collected and divided into three groups: horses with large intestinal disease (n = 20), horses with small intestinal disease (n = 8), and healthy horses (n = 24). (3) Results: Horses with intestinal diseases had fewer species and a less diverse bacterial population than healthy horses.

Bajaj 4, Sae Kyung Joo5, Junsun Yu1, Seoyeon Park1, ✉ Hyena Kang1, Jeong Hwan Park6, Jung Ho Kim6, Dong Hyeon Lee 5, Seonhwa Lee7, Won Kim 5 & ✉ GwangPyo Ko 1,3,8,9 1234567890():,; Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with obesity but also found in non- obese individuals. Gut microbiome profiles of 171 Asians with biopsy-proven NAFLD and 31 non-NAFLD controls are analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing; an independent Western cohort is used for external validation. Subjects are classified into three subgroups according to histological spectra of NAFLD or fibrosis severity. Significant alterations in microbiome diversity are observed according to fibrosis severity in non-obese, but not obese, subjects. Ruminococcaceae and Veillonellaceae are the main microbiota associated with fibrosis severity in non-obese subjects. Furthermore, stool bile acids and propionate are elevated, especially in non-obese subjects with significant fibrosis. Fibrosis-related Ruminococcaceae and Veillo- nellaceae species undergo metagenome sequencing, and four representative species are administered in three mouse NAFLD models to evaluate their effects on liver damage. This study provides the evidence for the role of the microbiome in the liver fibrosis pathogenesis, especially in non-obese subjects. 1 Department of Environmental Health Sciences, Graduate School of Public Health, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Republic of Korea. 2 Institute of Health and Environment, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Republic of Korea.

Safra Campus, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel 9 Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK ABSTRACT Background: The chicken is the most abundant food animal in the world. However, despite its importance, the chicken gut microbiome remains largely undefined. Here, we exploit culture-independent and culture-dependent approaches to reveal extensive taxonomic diversity within this complex microbial community. Results: We performed metagenomic sequencing of fifty chicken faecal samples from Submitted 4 December 2020 two breeds and analysed these, alongside all (n = 582) relevant publicly available Accepted 22 January 2021 chicken metagenomes, to cluster over 20 million non-redundant genes and to Published 6 April 2021 construct over 5,500 metagenome-assembled bacterial genomes.
