Abstract:
Gut microbiota undergoes profound alterations in alcohol cirrhosis. Microbiota-derived products, e.g., short chain fatty acids (SCFA), regulate the homeostasis of the gut-liver axis. The objective was to evaluate the composition and functions of the intestinal microbiota in patients with alcohol-decompensated cirrhosis. Fecal samples of 18 patients and 18 healthy controls (HC) were obtained. Microbial composition was characterized by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, SCFA quantification was performed by gas chromatography (GC), and metagenomic predictive profiles were analyzed by PICRUSt2. Gut microbiota in the cirrhosis group revealed a significant increase in the pathogenic/pathobionts genera Escherichia/Shigella and Prevotella, a decrease in beneficial bacteria, such as Blautia, Faecalibacterium, and a decreased α-diversity (p < 0.001) compared to HC. Fecal SCFA concentrations were significantly reduced in the cirrhosis group (p < 0.001). PICRUSt2 analysis indicated a decrease in acetyl-CoA fermentation to butyrate, as well as an increase in pathways related to antibiotics resistance, and aromatic amino acid biosynthesis. These metabolic pathways have been poorly described in the progression of alcohol-related decompensated cirrhosis. The gut microbiota of these patients possesses a pathogenic/inflammatory environment; therefore, future strategies to balance intestinal dysbiosis should be implemented. These findings are described for the first time in the population of western Mexico.

Abstract:
The adaptive ability of reindeer to the harsh conditions of the Russian Arctic is not determined solely by the genome of the macroorganism and, of course, includes an extensive genetic and metabolic repertoire of the microbiome.The aim. To compare the taxonomic and predicted metabolic profiles of the rumen microbiome of adult reindeer living in the natural pastures of the Yamalo-Nenets and Nenets Autonomous districts of the Russian Federation.Materials and methods. Expeditions to the Yamal-Nenets and Nenets Autonomous districts of the Russian Arctic in 2017 were carried out to take samples of the rumen. The contents of the rumen were taken from clinically healthy reindeer individuals (at least 3 times repetition). To analyze the animal scar microbiota and determine metabolic profiles, 16S rRNA NGS sequencing was performed on a MiSeq device (Illumina, USA). Bioinformatic data analysis was performed using QIIME2 software ver. 2020.8. The noise sequences were filtered by DADA2. Silva 138 reference database was used for taxonomy analysis. Reconstruction and prediction of the functional content of the metagenome was carried out using the software complex PICRUSt2 (v. 2.3.0).Results. During NGS sequencing, a total of 223 768 sequences of the 16S rRNA gene of the reindeer scarring microbiome were studied. Significant (p ≤ 0.05) differences between the groups in 10 bacterial phyla and superphyla were revealed: Actinobacteriota, Spirochaetes, Chloroflexi, Verrucomicrobia, Bdellovibrionota, Synergistetes, Fusobacteriota, Myxococcota, Cyanobacteria, Campilobacterota. The results of the reconstruction and prediction of the functional content of the metagenome using the PICRUSt2 bioinformatic analysis made it possible to identify 328 potential metabolic pathways. Differences between the groups were revealed in 16 predicted metabolic pathways, among which the pathways of chlorophyllide and amino acid biosynthesis dominated.

Abstract:
Traditionally made Kochujang (TMK) is a long-term fermented soybean and rice mixture with red pepper and salts. The ambient bacteria in rice straw and nutrient components of Kochujang influence the bacteria community. We aimed to investigate the bacterial composition and quality of TMK from different provinces of Korea: Chungcheung (CC), Jeolla (JL), Kyungsang (KS), and GeongGee plus Kangwon (GK) provinces, and Jeju island (JJ). Furthermore, Bacillus spp. isolated from TMK were studied to have anti-cerebrovascular disease activity and probiotic properties. Seventy-three TMK samples from different regions were collected to assess the biogenic amine contents, bacteria composition using next-generation methods, and bacterial functions using Picrust2. Bacillus spp. was isolated from the collected TMK, and their antioxidant, fibrinolytic, and angiotensin I conversion enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities and probiotic properties were examined. KS TMK had lower sodium contents than the other TMK. There were no significant differences in histamine and tyramine contents among the TMK samples in different provinces. The predominant bacteria in TMK was Bacillus spp., but KS included much less Bacillus spp. and higher Enterococcus and Staphylococcus than the other TMK. Gene expression related to lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis was higher in KS TMK than the other TMK in Picrust2. The predominant Bacillus spp. isolated from TMK was B. subtilis and B. velezensis. B. subtilis SRCM117233, SRCM117245, and SRCM117253 had antioxidant activity, whereas B. subtilis had higher fibrinolytic activity than other Bacillus spp. Only B. velezensis SRCM117254, SRCM117311, SRCM117314, and SRCM117318 had over 10% ACE inhibitory activity. In conclusion, KS had less Bacillus related to lower sodium contents than the other TMK. The specific strains of B. subtilis and B. velezensis had antioxidant, fibrinolytic, and ACE inhibitory activity, and they can be used as a starter culture to produce better quality controlled Kochujang with anti-cerebrovascular disease activities.

Abstract:
The experimental objective was to characterize the impact of insoluble corn-based fiber, xylanase, and an arabinoxylan-oligosaccharide on ileal digesta and mucosa microbiome of pigs. Three replicates of 20 gilts were blocked by initial body weight, individually-housed, and assigned to 1 of 4 dietary treatments: a low-fiber control (LF), a 30% corn bran high-fiber control (HF), HF+100 mg/kg xylanase (HF+XY), and HF+50 mg/kg arabinoxylan oligosaccharide (HF+AX). Gilts were fed their respective treatments for 46 days. On day 46, pigs were euthanized and ileal digesta and mucosa were collected. The V4 region of the 16S rRNA was amplified and sequenced, generating a total of 2,413,572 and 1,739,013 high-quality sequences from the digesta and mucosa, respectively. Sequences were classified into 1,538 mucosa and 2,495 digesta operational taxonomic units (OTU). Hidden-state predictions of 25 enzymes were made using Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States 2 (PICRUST2). Compared to LF, HF increased Erysipelotrichaceae_UCG-002, and Turicibacter in the digesta, Lachnospiraceae_unclassified in the mucosa, and decreased Actinobacillus in both (Q<0.05). Relative to HF, HF+XY increased 19 and 14 of the 100 most abundant OTUs characterized from digesta and mucosa, respectively (Q<0.05). Notably, HF+XY increased the OTU_23_Faecalibacterium by nearly 6 log2-fold change, compared to HF. Relative to HF, HF+XY increased genera Bifidobacterium, and Lactobacillus, and decreased Streptococcus and Turicibacter in digesta (Q<0.05), and increased Bifidobacterium and decreased Escherichia-Shigella in the mucosa (Q<0.05). Compared to HF, HF+AX increased 5 and 6 of the 100 most abundant OTUs characterized from digesta and mucosa, respectively, (Q<0.05), but HF+AX did not modulate similar taxa as HF+XY. The PICRUST2 predictions revealed HF+XY increased gene-predictions for enzymes associated with arabinoxylan degradation and xylose metabolism in the digesta, and increased enzymes related to short-chain fatty acid production in the mucosa. Collectively, these data suggest xylanase elicits a stimbiotic and prebiotic mechanism.

Abstract:
Since doenjang quality depends on the bacterial composition, which ambient bacteria in the environment and production conditions influence, a complete understanding of the bacteria community in traditionally madetraditionally made doenjang (TMD) from different regions is needed. We aimed to investigate the bacteria composition and quality of TMD in the following areas: Chonbuk (CB), Chonnam (CN), Kyungsang (KS), Kangwon (KW), Chungchung (CC) provinces, and Jeju island (JJ) of Korea. Twenty-nine TMD samples from different regions were used to assess biogenic amine contents, bacteria composition using next-generation methods, and metabolic functions of the bacteria using Picrust2. Bacillus spp. were isolated, and their antioxidant and fibrinolytic activities were determined. Most TMD contained high amounts of beneficial bacteria (Bacillus, Lactobacillus, Pediococcus and Weissella). However, some KS samples contained harmful bacteria (Cronobacter, Proteus and Acinetobacter) and less beneficial B. velezensis bacteria. There was no similarity among the regional groups, and each TMD showed a different bacteria composition. Shannon index, α-diversity index, was lower in TMD from JJ and CB than the other areas, but there was no β-diversity among TMD from the six area groups. Picrust2 analysis revealed that the functional potential for arachidonic acid metabolism was lowest in JJ and CN, that for supporting insulin action was highest in KS and JJ, and that for carbohydrate digestion and absorption was lowest in CB and JJ among all groups (p < 0.05) according to the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes Orthology. Histamine contents were lower in CN and CC, and tyramine contents did not differ significantly. B. velezensis, B. subtilis, B. licheniformis, B. siamensis, and B. amyloliquefaciens were isolated from TMD. None of the isolated Bacillus spp. contained the B. cereus gene. B. subtilis from CN had the highest fibrinolytic activity, and B. velezensis from CB had the highest antioxidant activity. In conclusion, TMD mainly contained various Bacillus spp., and the predominant one was B. velezensis, which had antioxidant and fibrinolytic activity regardless of the regional origin.

Abstract:
Bacterial diversity and community composition are of great importance in wastewater treatment; however, little is known about the diversity and community structure of bacteria in tropical municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Therefore, in this study, activated sludge samples were collected from the return sludge, anaerobic sludge, anoxic sludge, and aerobic sludge of an A2O WWTP in Haikou, China. Illumina MiSeq high-throughput sequencing was used to examine the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) of bacteria in the samples. The microbial community diversity in this tropical WWTP was higher than in temperate, subtropical, and plateau WWTPs. Proteobacteria, Bacteroidota, Patescibacteria, and Chloroflexi were the dominant phyla. Nitrification bacteria Nitrosomonas, and Nitrospira were also detected. Tetrasphaera, instead of Candidatus Accumulibacter, were the dominant polyphosphate accumulating organisms (PAOs), while, glycogen accumulating organisms (GAOs), such as Candidatus Competibacter and Defluviicoccus were also detected. The bacterial community functions predicted by PICRUSt2 were related to metabolism, genetic information processing, and environmental information processing. This study provides a reference for the optimization of tropical municipal WWTPs.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. The endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response (UPRER) signal transducer activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) is a clinically relevant pre-cancerous marker in CRC and colitis-associated CRC. We established the interrelated role of the microbiota and ATF6 signalling as a novel tumor-promoting mechanism in our transgenic mouse model of spontaneous microbiota-dependent ATF6-driven CRC (nATF6IEC). Methods To elucidate the transcriptional program initiated by acute and chronic ATF6 signalling, mRNA sequencing analyses of murine colonic intestinal epithelial cells were performed 4 days or 5 weeks after induction of ATF6, respectively. Germfree (GF) mice served to dissect microbiota contribution to the transcriptional response. CRC patient datasets (TCGA) were used to estimate ATF6 activity and validate ATF6-driven signatures. To investigate the impact of ATF6 signalling on metabolites, untargeted metabolomics of faeces and targeted lipidomics of tissue were performed. Mucosal microbiota was spatially characterised by 16S rRNA profiling at mm resolution along the colonic longitudinal axis. Based on 16S rRNA data, Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities Reconstruction of Unobserved States (PICRUSt2) was used to infer microbiota lipid-specific functional content. Results We identified an ATF6-UPR core of 368 differentially expressed genes fully activated by acute ATF6 signalling. Functional analysis using KEGG pathways showed that chronic ATF6 signalling predominantly alters UPR-related and metabolic pathways, with 22% of metabolic pathway genes classified as lipid metabolism. GF mice confirmed that the microbiota enhances ATF6-induced metabolic changes. Kaplan-Meier analyses significantly associate our microbiota-dependent ATF6-driven and lipid-specific ATF6-driven gene signatures with decreased disease-free survival in CRC patients since primary therapy. Moreover, ATF6 activity correlates with the presence of CRC-associated bacteria in TCGA samples. Tumor-susceptible mice show alterations in lipid metabolites, particularly long-chain fatty acids (FA) and elongation of saturated FA. PICRUSt2 revealed bacterial lipid detoxification mechanisms, with an increased total abundance of oleate hydratase-positive species. Conclusion Chronic ATF6-signalling alters host lipid metabolism and the lipid milieu in tumor-developing nATF6IEC mice. ATF6-driven microbiota changes are concomitant with bacterial lipid detoxification mechanisms in the tumor niche. We postulate that chronic ATF6 signalling represents a clinically relevant pathologic response that alters the intestinal lipid milieu and thus selects for a tumor-promoting microbiota.

Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND Dysbiotic intestinal microbiomes dominated by facultative anaerobes are strongly associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). More recently, data from Baumler and colleagues support a model where mitochondrial dysfunction causes disease-associated dysbiosis by increasing oxygen (O2) availability to the microbiome. We posit that the restoration of epithelial mitochondrial respiration contributes to the restoration of a healthy microbiome dominated by facultative anaerobes such as Firmicutes [that produce short chain fatty acids (SCFA)]. Here, we tested a novel compound (AuPhos) that increases an O2 consumption in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) thereby reducing O2 availability to the microbiome and promotes a healthy anaerobic environment (and blooms of firmicutes). METHOD Inbred C57BL/6 mice (n=3) were given oral vehicle (0.5% DMSO/Tween-80) or AuPhos (2.5 or 25mg/Kg;q3d) for two weeks, and colon and stool samples were extracted at day-15 sacrifice. Microbial DNA was isolated from stool samples using PoweFecal kit followed by 16S rRNA metagenomic sequencing. Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and PICRUST2 were performed to reveal differentially abundant bacterial species and functional potentials of bacterial communities, respectively. Similar microbial profiling was performed on AuPhos-fed acute colitis mice (2% DSS-7d; Recovery-16d). Effect of AuPhos on microbial metabolism was determined by 1H NMR for detecting SCFA synthesis by gut microbiota in stool samples (n=3) collected after 3 consecutive doses. AuPhos-induced hypoxia in IECs was assessed by Hypoxyprobe-1 kit. RESULT Metagenomic analysis showed reduction in relative abundance of (O2 consuming) Proteobacteria and facultatively anaerobic Enterobacteriaceae in the gut, in AuPhos-fed mice. Conversely, AuPhos treatment dose- dependently increased the relative abundance of signature anaerobic bacteria e.g. Firmicutes including Clostridia (Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Roseburia sp.), Bifidobacterium, etc. PICRUST2 and LDA revealed that AuPhos decreased bacterial LPS biosynthetic pathway and increased overall fatty acid biosynthesis pathways. AuPhos increased butyrate and propionate levels by &gt;35% and acetate by 60% (n=3) compared to stools from vehicle-treated mice. In DSS-colitis mice, AuPhos reduced the relative abundance of inflammatory Proteobacteria, which includes facultative anaerobic Enterobacteriaceae family and increased Firmicutes over time (p&lt;0.05). Interestingly, hypoxia staining showed AuPhos-induced O2 utilization in colonic surface IECs, facilitating obligate anaerobe-promoting environment in the gut. CONCLUSION These finding suggest that AuPhos is a “first-in-class” oral therapeutic that has a potential to correct microbial dysbiosis in IBD by reducing epithelial oxygenation and thereby promoting a healthy microbiome dominated by obligate anaerobes.

Abstract:
Some bacterial taxa when stimulated by water additions will break dormancy, grow, and become dominant members of the community and contribute significant pulses of CO2 associated with the rewetting event. These pulses of activity are associated with high levels of bacterial productivity in soils. (Aanderud et al. 2011) We examined the bacterial taxa that resuscitate and become metabolically active following two forms of water stress (soil drying-rewetting and freeze-thaw cycles) and we captured and measured the CO2 emanating from those soils. Specifically, We used target metagenomics, which uses a specific gene pool within bacteria that is associated with a function of an ecological process, in this case active (16S rRNA communities) bacteria and all bacteria (16S rRNA communities) during drying-rewetting and freeze-thaw cycles. We measured an array of community dynamics (i.e., evenness, richness, diversity, relative abundance of taxa, and network analyses between taxa) as dry soils are rewetted and as frozen soils thaw multiple times in three cold desert soils. Soils from all three locations exhibited some similar bacterial taxa and gene function but were large in part their own community derived from the evolutionary history of the continent in which they reside.

Abstract:
Soluble dietary fibers (SDF) are fermented more than insoluble dietary fibers (IDF), but their effect on colonic bacterial community structure and function remains unclear. Thus, bacterial community composition and function in the colon of BALB/c mice (n = 7) fed with a high level (approximately 20%) of typical SDF, oat-derived beta-glucan (G), microcrystalline cellulose (M) as IDF, or their mixture (GM), were compared. Mice in group G showed a lowest average feed intake (p < 0.05) but no change on the average body weight gain (p > 0.05) compared to other groups, which may be associated with the highest concentration of colonic propionate (p < 0.05) in these mice. The bacterial alpha-diversity of group G was significantly lower than other groups (p < 0.01). In group G, the relative abundance of bacteria belonging to the phylum Bacteroidetes was significantly increased, whereas bacteria from the phylum Firmicutes were significantly decreased (p < 0.01). The core bacteria for different treatments showed distinct differences. Bacteroides, Dehalobacterium, and Prevotella, including known acetogens and carbohydrate fermenting organisms, were significantly increased in relative abundance in group G. In contrast, Adlercreutzia, Odoribacter, and Coprococcus were significantly more abundant in group M, whereas Oscillospira, Desulfovibrio, and Ruminoccaceae, typical hydrogenotrophs equipped with multiple carbohydrate active enzymes, were remarkably enriched in group GM (p < 0.05). The relative abundance of bacteria from the three classes of Proteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria (including Enterobacteriaceae) and Deltaproteobacteria, were significantly more abundant in group G, indicating a higher ratio of conditional pathogenic bacteria in mice fed dietary beta-glucan in current study. The predicted colonic microbial function showed an enrichment of "Energy metabolism" and "Carbohydrate metabolism" pathways in mice from group G and M, suggesting that the altered bacterial community in the colon of mice with the two dietary fibers probably resulted in a more efficient degradation of dietary polysaccharides. Our result suggests that the influence of dietary beta-glucan (SDF) on colonic bacterial community of mice was more extensively than MCC (IDF). Co-supplementation of the two fibers may help to increase the bacterial diversity and reduce the conditional pathogens in the colon of mice.

Ľudské telo je prostredím pre život neuveriteľného množstva mikróbov. Niektoré z nich môžu spôsobovať rôzne choroby, ale ďalšie, napríklad črevný mikrobióm, sú pre život a zdravie človeka nepostrádateľné. Nanešťastie, črevný mikrobióm nie je detailne preštudovaný, pretože obsahuje tisíce rôznych druhov baktérií, z ktorých väčšina sa nedá kultivovať v laboratórnych podmienkach. Riešením tohto problému sú nové rýchle metódy sekvenovania v kombináciou s bioinformatickými nástrojmi na výpočet funkčného profilu baktérií vo vzorke. V tejto práci si predstavíme existujúce nástroje predpovedajúce funkčný profil, a následne navrhneme nový nástroj, ktorý môže implementovať konsenzus nad výsledkami existujúcich nástrojov, alebo sa môže jednať o úplne nový nástroj.
