  • The Critical Role of Dietary Foliage in Maintaining the Gut Microbiome And

Greene 1,2, Erin A. McKenney3,4, Thomas M. O’Connell5 & Christine M. Drea1,2,3 The gut microbiome (GMB) of folivores metabolizes dietary fber into nutrients, including short- chain fatty acids (SCFAs); however, experiments probing the consequences of foliage quality on host GMBs are lacking. We therefore examined GMB structure and function via amplicon sequencing and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy in 31 captive sifakas (Propithecus coquereli) during dietary manipulations associated with husbandry. Supplementing standard diets with diverse foliage blends, versus with a single plant species, promoted more diverse GMBs, enriched for taxa implicated in plant-fber metabolism, but depleted in taxa implicated in starch metabolism and bile tolerance. The consumption of diverse blends was associated with greater concentrations of colonic SCFAs. Abundant foliage, via forest access, promoted compositionally distinct and more stable GMBs, but reduced concentrations of SCFAs, possibly refecting selection of high-quality leaves. In 11 subjects denied forest access, we examined the temporal pace of microbial shifts when supplemental foliage was abruptly switched between diverse blends and single species. The sifaka GMB responded within days, with community diversity and composition closely tracking foliage diversity. By providing experimental evidence that the folivore GMB is sensitive to minor changes in dietary foliage, we reveal the fragility of specialist GMBs, with implications for managing the wellbeing of endangered wildlife.

  • The Intestinal Microbial Community Dissimilarity in Hepatitis B Virus
    Deng et al. Gut Pathog (2019) 11:58 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13099-019-0337-2 Gut Pathogens RESEARCH Open Access The intestinal microbial community dissimilarity in hepatitis B virus-related liver cirrhosis patients with and without at alcohol consumption Yong‑Dong Deng1, Xue‑Bin Peng1, Rong‑Rong Zhao1, Chao‑Qun Ma2, Jian‑ning Li1 and Li‑Qiong Yao3* Abstract Background: Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection‑reduced liver functions are associated with intestinal microbial community dissimilarity. This study aimed to investigate the microbial community dissimilarity in patients with difer‑ ent grades of HBV‑related liver cirrhosis. Results: Serum endotoxin was increased with Child–Pugh (CP) class (A, B, and C). Veillonellaceae and Lachnospiraceae families were reduced in patients compared with controls. Megamonas and Veillonella genus was reduced and increased in patients compared with controls, respectively, especially in CPB and CPC groups. Correlation analysis showed that endotoxin content was signifcantly correlated with alcohol consumption (95% CI 0.100, 0.493), CP class (95% CI 0.289, 0.687) and Lachnospiraceae family level (95% CI 0.539, 0.122). Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio was correlated with the level of Lachnospiraceae family (95% CI 0.013,− 0.481),− Veillonellaceae family (95% CI 0.284, 0.696), Megamonas genus (95% CI 0.101, 0.518) and Veillonella genus (95% CI 0.134, 0.545). All aforementioned bacteria were independent risk or protective factors for hepatitis. Alcohol consumption changed microbial community. Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that elevated Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio, reduced Megamonas genus level and increased Veillonella genus level were indicators for HBV‑related liver cirrhosis.

A quantitative molecular evaluation of fatty acids in human and animal platelets has already evidenced similarities between people suffering from depression and German Shepherds, suggesting that domestication has led dogs to be similar to humans. In order to verify whether humans and dogs suffering from similar pathologies also share similar microorganisms at the intestinal level, in this study the gut-microbiota composition of 12 German Shepherds was compared to that of 15 dogs belonging to mixed breeds which do not suffer from depression. Moreover, the relation between the microbiota of the German Shepherd’s group and that of patients with depression has been investigated.

  • Gut Microbiota Composition in Relation to Intake of Added Sugar, Sugar‑Sweetened Beverages and Artifcially Sweetened Beverages in the Malmö Ofspring Study
    European Journal of Nutrition https://doi.org/10.1007/s00394-020-02392-0 ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTION Gut microbiota composition in relation to intake of added sugar, sugar‑sweetened beverages and artifcially sweetened beverages in the Malmö Ofspring Study Stina Ramne1 · Louise Brunkwall1 · Ulrika Ericson1 · Nicola Gray2 · Gunter G. C. Kuhnle3 · Peter M. Nilsson1 · Marju Orho‑Melander1 · Emily Sonestedt1 Received: 22 April 2020 / Accepted: 21 September 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Purpose It has been suggested that a high intake of sugar or sweeteners may result in an unfavorable microbiota composition; however, evidence is lacking. Hence, in this exploratory epidemiological study, we aim to examine if intake of added sugar, sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) or artifcially sweetened beverages (ASBs) associate with the gut microbiota composition. Methods Participants (18–70 years) in the Malmö Ofspring Study have provided blood, urine, and fecal samples and com- pleted both web-based 4 day food records and short food frequency questionnaires. The gut microbiota was assessed by 16S rRNA sequencing, processed in QIIME and matched to Greengenes (v.13.8), giving 64 included genera after fltering. Intake of added sugar (n = 1371) (also supported by the overnight urinary sugar biomarker in a subgroup n = 577), SSBs (n = 1086) and ASBs (n = 1085) were examined as exposures in negative binomial regressions. Results Various genera nominally associated with intake of added sugar, SSBs, and ASBs. Only the negative association between SSB intake and Lachnobacterium remained signifcant after multiple testing correction. A positive association between SSB intake and the Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio was also observed. Conclusion In this wide population, the cross-sectional associations between added sugar and sweet beverage intake and the gut microbiota are modest, but the results suggest that SSB intake is associated negatively with the genus Lachnobacterium and positively with the Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio.

  • Altered Diversity and Composition of Gut Microbiota in Wilson's Disease
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Altered diversity and composition of gut microbiota in Wilson’s disease Xiangsheng Cai1,2,3,9*, Lin Deng4,9, Xiaogui Ma1,9, Yusheng Guo2, Zhiting Feng5, Minqi Liu2, Yubin Guan1, Yanting Huang1, Jianxin Deng6, Hongwei Li7, Hong Sang8, Fang Liu7* & Xiaorong Yang1* Wilson’s disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder of chronic copper toxicosis with high mortality and disability. Recent evidence suggests a correlation between dysbiosis in gut microbiome and multiple diseases such as genetic and metabolic disease. However, the impact of intestinal microbiota polymorphism in WD have not been fully elaborated and need to be explore for seeking some microbiota beneft for WD patients. In this study, the 16S rRNA sequencing was performed on fecal samples from 14 patients with WD and was compared to the results from 16 healthy individuals. The diversity and composition of the gut microbiome in the WD group were signifcantly lower than those in healthy individuals. The WD group presented unique richness of Gemellaceae, Pseudomonadaceae and Spirochaetaceae at family level, which were hardly detected in healthy controls. The WD group had a markedly lower abundance of Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and Verrucomicrobia, and a higher abundance of Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria and Fusobacteria than that in healthy individuals. The Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratio in the WD group was signifcantly lower than that of healthy control. In addition, the functional profle of the gut microbiome from WD patients showed a lower abundance of bacterial groups involved in the host immune and metabolism associated systems pathways such as transcription factors and ABC-type transporters, compared to healthy individuals.

ISBN: 978-90-8504-663-9 Abstract The human gastrointestinal tract is densely populated by hundreds of microbial (primarily bacterial, but also archaeal and fungal) species that are collectively named the microbiota. This microbiota performs various functions and contributes significantly to the digestion and the health of the host. It has previously been noted that the diversity of the gastrointestinal microbiota is disturbed in relation to several intestinal and not intestine related diseases. However, accurate and detailed defining of such disturbances is hampered by the fact that the diversity of this ecosystem is still not fully described, primarily because of its extreme complexity, and high inter-individual variability.
