Prebiotics are indigestible dietary components that improve host health by stimulating the growth and metabolic activity of beneficial intestinal microbes. The whole grains are rich in non-digestible carbohydrates, which may confer prebiotic potential. Among them, millet and quinoa have gained attention as dietary alternatives due to the growing popularity of gluten-free diets. In this study, we examined the effects of proso millet and quinoa on the human gut microbiota using an in vitro fecal incubation model. Both grains altered alpha diversity metrics, including microbial richness, evenness, and phylogenetic diversity. Beta diversity analysis showed that the proso millet and quinoa treatment groups exhibited distinct clustering patterns compared to the control, highlighting their impact on microbial community structure. Taxonomic analysis showed an increase in beneficial genera, including Bifidobacterium, and a decrease in taxa such as Enterobacteriaceae and Flavonifractor. To assess metabolic changes associated with microbial fermentation, short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) intensities were measured. The intensities of acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid were significantly higher in the proso millet- and quinoa-treated groups compared to the control group. Spearman correlation analysis showed that the abundances of Bifidobacterium and Blautia were significantly positively associated with SCFA intensities. Furthermore, predicted functional pathway analysis identified enrichment of carbohydrate-related pathways in proso millet and quinoa treatments. Quinoa supplementation led to a broader enhancement of metabolic pathways, including glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, starch and sucrose metabolism, and pentose phosphate pathways, whereas proso millet enriched galactose metabolism, and starch and sucrose metabolism. These findings suggest that proso millet and quinoa influence gut microbial diversity, composition, and function.

Two novel, Gram-stain-negative, anaerobic, and non-motile bacterial strains, designated KFT8T and CG01T, were isolated from the feces of healthy individuals without diagnosed diseases and characterized using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that both strains belong to the genus Bacteroides, with < 99.0% similarity in their 16S rRNA gene sequences to B. facilis NSJ-77T and B. nordii JCM 12987T. Within the genus Bacteroides, strain KFT8T exhibited the highest Orthologous Average Nucleotide Identity value of 94.7% and a digital DNA-DNA hybridization value of 63.7% with B. ovatus ATCC 8483T, whereas strain CG01T showed the highest values of 95.3% and 63.3%, respectively, with B. nordii JCM 12987T. The values between the two novel strains were 74.8% and 21.4%, respectively, which are below the species delineation thresholds, supporting their classification as novel species. The major fatty acid of strain KFT8T was C18:1 ω9c, whereas strain CG01T predominantly contained summed feature 11 (comprising iso-C17:0 3OH and/or C18:2 DMA). The only respiratory quinone was MK-11, the major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. Both strains produced succinic acid and acetic acid as common metabolic end-products of fermentation, while lactic acid and formic acid were detected individually in each strain. Based on polyphasic characterization, strains KFT8T (= KCTC 15614T = JCM 36011T) and CG01T (= KCTC 15613T = JCM 36010T) represent two novel species within the genus Bacteroides, for which the names Bacteroides celer sp. nov. and Bacteroides mucinivorans sp. nov. are proposed, respectively. Additionally, genome-based analyses and phenotypic comparisons revealed that B. koreensis and B. kribbi represent the same strain, showing genomic relatedness to B. ovatus that exceeds the threshold for species delineation. Consequently, we propose the reclassification of B. koreensis Shin et al. 2017 and B. kribbi Shin et al. 2017 as later heterotypic synonyms of B. ovatus Eggerth and Gagnon 1933 (Approved Lists 1980).

Over the past two decades, as the importance of gut microbiota to human health has become widely known, attempts have been made to treat diseases by correcting dysbiosis of gut microbiota through fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Apart from current knowledge of gut microbiota, FMT to treat disease has a long history, from the treatment of food poisoning in the fourth century to the treatment of Clostridioides difficile infections in the twentieth century. In 2013, FMT was recognized as a standard treatment for recurrent C. difficile because it consistently showed high efficacy. Though recurrent C. difficile is the only disease internationally recognized for FMT efficacy, FMT has been tested for other diseases and shown some promising preliminary results. Different FMT methods have been developed using various formulations and administration routes.
Despite advances in FMT, some issues remain to be resolved, such as donor screening, manufacturing protocols, and unknown components in the fecal microbiota. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms, clinical indications, methods, and challenges of current FMT. We also discuss the development of alternative therapies to overcome the challenges of FMT.

Abstract

-
Makgeolli, a traditional Korean liquor, contains components such as lactic acid bacteria and dietary fiber, which can induce changes in the gut microbiome. Since variations in microbiome responses may exist between enterotypes-classifications based on the dominant bacterial populations in the gut-we hypothesized that the consumption of makgeolli leads to enterotype-dependent differences in gut microbial structures among healthy participants. This study aimed to determine the effect of makgeolli consumption on gut microbial structures by stratifying all participants into two enterotype groups: Bacteroides-dominant type (B-type, n = 7) and Prevotella-dominant type (P-type, n = 4). The B-type showed an increase in alpha diversity, while no significant difference was observed in the P-type following makgeolli consumption. The composition of gut microbiota significantly changed in the B-type, whereas no noticeable alteration was observed in the P-type after makgeolli consumption. Notably, Prevotella exhibited the most significant changes only in the P-type. In line with the increased abundance of Prevotella, the genes associated with carbohydrate metabolism, including pentose/glucuronate interconversions, fructose/mannose metabolism, starch/sucrose metabolism and amino sugar/nucleotide sugar metabolism were significantly enriched following makgeolli consumption in the P-type. These findings suggest that makgeolli consumption induces enterotype-dependent alterations in gut microbial composition and metabolic pathways, highlighting the potential for personalized dietary interventions.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a type of cardiovascular disease that influences millions of human beings worldwide and has a great rate of mortality and morbidity. Spironolactone has been used as a critical drug for the treatment of cardiac failure and it ameliorates cardiac dysfunction post-MI. Despite these findings, whether there is a relationship between the therapeutic effects of spironolactone and the gut microorganism after MI has not been determined. In our research, we used male C57BL/6 J mice to explore whether the gut microbiota mediates the beneficial function of spironolactone after myocardial infarction.
We demonstrated that deletion of the gut microbiota eliminated the beneficial function of spironolactone in MI mice, displaying exacerbated cardiac dysfunction, cardiac infarct size. In addition, the gut microbiota was altered by spironolactone after sham or MI operation in mice. We also used male C57BL/6 J mice to investigate the function of a probiotic in the myocardial infarction. In summary, our findings reveal a precious role of the gut flora in the therapeutic function of spironolactone on MI.

2-piperidone is a crucial industrial raw material of high-value nylon-5 and nylon-6,5. Currently, a major bottleneck in the biosynthesis of 2-piperidone is the identification of highly efficient 2-piperidone synthases. In this study, we aimed to identify specific strains among 51 human gut bacterial strains capable of producing 2-piperidone and to elucidate its synthetic mechanism. Our findings revealed that four gut bacterial strains, namely Collinsella aerofaciens LFYP39, Collinsella intestinalis LFYP54, Clostridium bolteae LFYP116, and Clostridium hathewayi LFYP18, could produce 2-piperidone from 5-aminovaleric acid (5AVA).
Additionally, we observed that 2-piperidone could be synthesized from proline through cross-feeding between Clostridium difficile LFYP43 and one of the four 2-piperidone producing strains, respectively. To identify the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the conversion of 5AVA to 2-piperidone, we utilized a gain-of-function library and identified avaC (5-aminovaleric acid cyclase) in C.
intestinalis LFYP54. Moreover, homologous genes of avaC were validated in the other three bacterial strains. Notably, avaC were found to be widely distributed among environmental bacteria. Overall, our research delineated the gut bacterial strains and genes involved in 2-piperidone production, holding promise for enhancing the efficiency of industrial biosynthesis of this compound.

Abstract

The human gut houses a diverse and dynamic microbiome critical for digestion, metabolism, and immune development, exerting profound efects on human health. However, these microorganisms pose a potential threat by breaching the gut barrier, entering host tissues, and triggering infections, uncontrolled infammation, and even sepsis. The intestinal epithelial cells form the primary defense, acting as a frontline barrier against microbial invasion. Antimicrobial proteins (AMPs), produced by these cells, serve as innate immune efectors that regulate the gut microbiome by directly killing or inhibiting microbes. Abnormal AMP production, whether insufcient or excessive, can disturb the microbiome equilibrium, contributing to various intestinal diseases. This review delves into the complex interactions between AMPs and the gut microbiota and sheds light on the role of AMPs in governing host-microbiota interactions. We discuss the function and mechanisms of action of AMPs, their regulation by the gut microbiota, microbial evasion strategies, and the consequences of AMP dysregulation in disease. Understanding these complex interactions between AMPs and the gut microbiota is crucial for developing strategies to enhance immune responses and combat infections within the gut microbiota. Ongoing research continues to uncover novel aspects of this intricate relationship, deepening our understanding of the factors shaping gut health. This knowledge has the potential to revolutionize therapeutic interventions, ofering enhanced treatments for a wide range of gut-related diseases.

Abstract

Candida albicans is the primary etiological agent associated with candidiasis in humans. Unrestricted growth of C. albicans can progress to systemic infections in the worst situation. This study investigates the antifungal activity of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and mode of action against C. albicans. HCQ inhibited the planktonic growth and yeast to hyphal form morphogenesis of C. albicans significantly at 0.5 mg/ml concentration. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC(50)) of HCQ for C. albicans adhesion and biofilm formation on the polystyrene surface was at 2 mg/ml and 4 mg/ml respectively. Various methods, such as scanning electron microscopy, exploration of the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway, cell cycle analysis, and assessment of S oxygen species (ROS) generation, were employed to investigate HCQ exerting its antifungal effects. HCQ was observed to reduce ergosterol levels in the cell membranes of C. albicans in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, HCQ treatment caused a substantial arrest of the C. albicans cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase, which impeded normal cell growth. Gene expression analysis revealed upregulation of SOD2, SOD1, and CAT1 genes after HCQ treatment, while genes like HWP1, RAS1, TEC1, and CDC 35 were downregulated. The study also assessed the in vivo efficacy of HCQ in a mice model, revealing a reduction in the pathogenicity of C. albicans after HCQ treatment. These results indicate that HCQ holds for the development of novel antifungal therapies.

Abstract

Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) can infect various epithelial mucosal cells, ultimately causing different symptoms in infected organ systems. With more than 110 types classified into seven species (A-G), HAdV-D species possess the highest number of viruses and are the fastest proliferating. The emergence of new adenovirus types and increased diversity are driven by homologous recombination (HR) between viral genes, primarily in structural elements such as the penton base, hexon and fiber proteins, and the E1 and E3 regions. A comprehensive analysis of the HAdV genome provides valuable insights into the evolution of human adenoviruses and identifies genes that display high variation across the entire genome to determine recombination patterns. Hypervariable regions within genetic sequences correlate with functional characteristics, thus allowing for adaptation to new environments and hosts. Proteotyping of newly emerging and already established adenoviruses allows for prediction of the characteristics of novel viruses. HAdV-D species evolved in a direction that increased diversity through gene recombination. Bioinformatics analysis across the genome, particularly in highly variable regions, allows for the verification or re-evaluation of recombination patterns in both newly introduced and pre-existing viruses, ultimately aiding in tracing various biological traits such as virus tropism and pathogenesis. Our research does not only assist in predicting the emergence of new adenoviruses but also offers critical guidance in regard to identifying potential regulatory factors of homologous recombination hotspots.

Due to the ever-increasing demand for meat, it has become necessary to identify cheap and sustainable sources of protein for animal feed. Feathers are the major byproduct of poultry industry, which are rich in hard-to-degrade keratin protein.
Previously we found that intact feathers can be digested into free amino acids, short peptides, and nano-/micro-keratin particles by the strain Bacillus licheniformis WHU in water, and the resulting feather hydrolysates exhibit prebiotic effects on mice. To explore the potential utilization of feather hydrolysate in the feed industry, we investigated its effects on the gut microbiota of broilers and fish. Our results suggest that feather hydrolysates significantly decrease and increase the diversity of gut microbial communities in broilers and fish, respectively. The composition of the gut microbiota was markedly altered in both of the animals. The abundance of bacteria with potentially pathogenic phenotypes in the gut microbial community of the fish significantly decreased. Staphylococcus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Neisseria spp., Achromobacter spp. were significantly inhibited by the feather hydrolysates. In addition, feather hydrolysates significantly improved proteolytic activity in the guts of broilers and fish. In fish, the expression levels of ZO-1 and TGF-α significantly improved after administration of feather hydrolysates. The results presented here suggest that feather hydrolysates generated by B. licheniformis WHU could be an alternative protein source in aquaculture and could exert beneficial effects on fish.

Tuberculosis (TB), a bacterial infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), is a significant
global public health problem. Mycobacterium tuberculosis expresses a unique family of PE_PGRS proteins that have been
implicated in pathogenesis. Despite numerous studies, the functions of most PE_PGRS proteins in the pathogenesis of
mycobacterium infections remain unclear. PE_PGRS45 (Rv2615c) is only found in pathogenic mycobacteria. In this study,
we successfully constructed a recombinant Mycobacterium smegmatis (M. smegmatis) strain which heterologously expresses
the PE_PGRS45 protein. We found that overexpression of this cell wall-associated protein enhanced bacterial viability under
stress in vitro and cell survival in macrophages. MS_PE_PGRS45 decreased the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines such
as IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12p40, and TNF-α. We also found that MS_PE_PGRS45 increased the expression of the anti-inflammatory
cytokine IL-10 and altered macrophage-mediated immune responses. Furthermore, PE_PGRS45 enhanced the survival rate
of M. smegmatis in macrophages by inhibiting cell apoptosis. Collectively, our findings show that PE_PGRS45 is a virulent
factor actively involved in the interaction with the host macrophage.

Mycorrhizal fungi are key components of forest ecosystems and play essential roles in host health. The host specificity of
mycorrhizal fungi is variable and the mycorrhizal fungi composition for the dominant tree species is largely known but
remains unknown for the less common tree species. In this study, we collected soil samples from the roots of six understudied
ectomycorrhizal tree species from a preserved natural park in the Republic of Korea over four seasons to investigate the
host specificity of mycorrhizal fungi in multiple tree species, considering the abiotic factors. We evaluated the mycorrhizal
fungal composition in each tree species using a metabarcoding approach. Our results revealed that each host tree species
harbored unique mycorrhizal communities, despite close localization. Most mycorrhizal taxa belonged to ectomycorrhizal
fungi, but a small proportion of ericoid mycorrhizal fungi and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi were also detected. While common
mycorrhizal fungi were shared between the plant species at the genus or higher taxonomic level, we found high host
specificity at the species/OTU (operational taxonomic unit) level. Moreover, the effects of the seasons and soil properties
on the mycorrhizal communities differed by tree species. Our results indicate that mycorrhizal fungi feature host-specificity
at lower taxonomic levels.

Norovirus (NoV) is the most common viral cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide. Vitamin A has demonstrated the
potential to protect against gastrointestinal infections. However, the effects of vitamin A on human norovirus (HuNoV)
infections remain poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate how vitamin A administration affects NoV replication.
We demonstrated that treatment with retinol or retinoic acid (RA) inhibited NoV replication in vitro based on their effects
on HuNoV replicon-bearing cells and murine norovirus-1 (MNV-1) replication in murine cells. MNV replication in vitro
showed significant transcriptomic changes, which were partially reversed by retinol treatment. RNAi knockdown of CCL6,
a chemokine gene that was downregulated by MNV infection but upregulated by retinol administration, resulted in increased
MNV replication in vitro. This suggested a role of CCL6 in the host response to MNV infections. Similar gene expression
patterns were observed in the murine intestine after oral administration of RA and/or MNV-1.CW1. CCL6 directly decreased
HuNoV replication in HG23 cells, and might indirectly regulate the immune response against NoV infection. Finally, relative
replication levels of MNV-1.CW1 and MNV-1.CR6 were significantly increased in CCL6 knockout RAW 264.7 cells. This
study is the first to comprehensively profile transcriptomes in response to NoV infection and vitamin A treatment in vitro,
and thus may provide new insights into dietary prophylaxis and NoV infections.

Norovirus is one of the leading causes of acute gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide. This study aimed to identify the epidemiological
characteristics of norovirus outbreaks and to provide evidence for public health entities. Specimens and epidemiological
survey data were collected to determine if there were differences in the attack rate of norovirus in terms of the
year, season, transmission route, exposure setting, and region and to determine whether there were relationships between
the reporting interval, the number of illnesses in a single outbreak and the duration of the outbreak. Norovirus outbreaks
were reported throughout the year, with seasonal characteristics (i.e., high rates in spring and winter). Among all regions in
Shenyang with the exception of Huanggu and Liaozhong, norovirus outbreaks had been reported, and the primary genotype
was GII.2[P16]. Vomiting was the most common symptom. The main places of occurrence were childcare institutions and
schools. The person-to-person route was the main transmission route. The median duration of norovirus was 3 days (IQR
[interquartile range]: 2–6 days), the median reporting interval was 2 days (IQR: 1–4 days), the median number of illnesses
in a single outbreak was 16 (IQR: 10–25); there was a positive correlation between these parameters. Norovirus surveillance
and genotyping studies still need to be further strengthened to increase knowledge regarding the pathogens and their variant
characteristics, to better characterize the patterns of norovirus outbreaks and to provide information for outbreak prevention.
Norovirus outbreaks should be detected, reported and handled early. Public health entities and the government should
develop corresponding measures for different seasons, transmission routes, exposure settings, and regions.

Abstract

We previously showed that both high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) and natural killer (NK) cells contribute to respiratory
syncytial virus (RSV)-induced persistent airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). Meanwhile,
Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12) and its specific receptor (chemokine receptor 4, CXCR4) play important
roles in recruitment of immune cells. CXCL12 has been reported to form a complex with HMGB1 that binds to CXCR4 and
increases inflammatory cell migration. The relationship between HMGB1, NK cells and chemokines in RSV-infected model
remains unclear. An anti-HMGB1 neutralizing antibody and inhibitor of CXCR4 (AMD3100) was administered to observe
changes of NK cells and airway disorders in nude mice and BALB/c mice. Results showed that the mRNA expression and
protein levels of HMGB1 were elevated in late stage of RSV infection and persistent airway inflammation and AHR were
diminished after administration of anti-HMGB1 antibodies, with an associated significant decrease in CXCR4+
NK cells. In
addition, CXCL12 and CXCR4 were reduced after HMGB1 blockade. Treatment with AMD3100 significantly suppressed
the recruitment of NK cells and alleviated the airway disorders. Thus, CXCL12/CXCR4 axis is involved in the recruitment
of NK cells by HMGB1, contributing to persistent airway inflammation and AHR during the late stage of RSV infection.

Abstract

The influenza A virus (IAV) has caused several pandemics,
and therefore there are many ongoing efforts to identify novel
antiviral therapeutic strategies including vaccines and antiviral
drugs. However, influenza viruses continuously undergo
antigenic drift and shift, resulting in the emergence of mutated
viruses. In turn, this decreases the efficiency of existing vaccines
and antiviral drugs to control IAV infection. Therefore,
this study sought to identify alternative therapeutic strategies
targeting host cell factors rather than viruses to avoid infection
by mutated viruses. Particularly, we investigated the role
of KIF20A that is one of kinesin superfamily proteins in the
replication of IAV. The KIF20A increased viral protein levels in
IAV-infected cells by regulating the initial entry stage during
viral infection. Furthermore, the KIF20A inhibitor significantly
suppressed viral replication, which protected mice from morbidity
and mortality. Therefore, our findings demonstrated
that KIF20A is highly involved in the viral replication process
and viral propagation both in vitro and in vivo, and could thus
be used as a target for the development of novel antiviral drugs.

Glaciers, formed from the gradual accumulation of snow,
can be continuous records representing past environments
and recognized as a time capsule of our planetary evolution.
Due to extremely harsh conditions, glacial ice has long been
considered an uninhabitable ecosystem for microorganisms
to sustain their life. However, recent developments in microbiological
analysis techniques revealed the presence of unexpectedly
diverse microbial strains. Glacial microorganisms
could also provide valuable information, including not only
biological diversity and structure but also molecular systematics,
metabolic profiles, and evolutionary changes from the
past climate and ecosystem. However, there are several obstacles
in investigating the glacier environment, such as low
regional accessibility, technical difficulties of ice coring, potential
contamination during the sampling process, and low
microbial biomass. This review aims to summarize recent
knowledge on decontamination methods, biomass, diversity
based on culture-dependent and -independent methods, application
of biological proxies, greenhouse gas production
and adaptive strategies in glaciers from various regions and to
imply further directions for a comprehensive understanding
of habitatility in an icy world including outer of our planet.

The maturation of infant gut microbiota has lifelong implications
on health, which has been proposed as the major events
during the first year of life. However, little is known about
their dynamic colonization and influencing elements among
the first two-year infancy as well as into the adulthood. So
based on the 16S rRNA sequencing data among 30 healthy
breast-feeding mother-infant pairs with normal ranges of
growth and development indicators from birth to two years
old, the dynamic colonization of gut microbiota and its influencing
factors were discussed using this birth cohort. Among
these, we identified that the diversity of gut microbiota was
significantly increased from six-month to two-year subgroups.
The significantly dynamic trends of gut microbiota at the phylum
(genus) level were that the percents of Firmicutes (Faecalibacterium,
Blautia, Enterococcus, Subdoligranulum, Agathobacter,
unidentified_Erysipelotrichaceae, Staphylococcus,
unidentified_Ruminococcaceae, and Fusicatenibacter), Bacteroidetes
and Verrucomicrobia were increased, while Actinobacteria
(Bifidobacterium) and Proteobacteria (unidentified-
Enterobacteriaceae and Klebsiella) were decreased with
the increased ages from six months to two years old, which
might simultaneously modulate the host pathways, such as
the higher percents of chemoheterotrophy and fermentation,
and lower percentages of nitrate_reduction, aerobic_chemoheterotrophy
and so on. Furthermore, there were significant
associations between maternal (milk microbiota, pre-pregnancy
BMI, BMI increment during the pregnancy)/infant
characteristics (BMI at birth and BMI gain), and the compositions
of gut microbiota. However, no differences of gut
microbiota were shown between the different sex and productive
mode subgroups. Overall, the colonization of gut microbiota
is significantly matured into the adulthood with the
increased ages to two-years old and regulated by the above
maternal/infant characteristics, which will provide a new direction
for the host-gut microbiota interplay during the first
two years of life.

Antibiotic-resistant Cutibacterium acnes and dysbiosis of the
skin microbiome are of increasing concern in acne treatment.
Enterococcus faecalis, a widely used probiotic, has shown benefits
for acne treatment by exerting antimicrobial activity
against C. acnes. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the
efficacy and safety of an E. faecalis CBT SL-5-extract-containing
lotion in patients with mild-to-moderate acne. Twenty
patients were enrolled in this randomized, placebo-controlled,
split-face comparative study. Patients were treated with E.
faecalis lotion on one side of the face and a vehicle lotion on
the other side for 4 weeks. The efficacy outcome measures included
improvement in the investigators’ assessment of acne
severity, patient satisfaction, changes in skin parameters and
diversity of the skin microbiome. The investigators’ assessment
score was significantly improved on the test side compared
to the control side, after 2 weeks (p = 0.009) and 6 weeks (p <
0.0005). However, TEWL and skin hydration were not significantly
different between the two groups. The phylogenetic
diversity of the skin microbiota decreased over time in the skin
samples of test side. In conclusion, E. faecalis CBT SL-5 extract
can be a feasible and well-tolerated option for improving acne
severity and skin microbiome dysbiosis in mild-to-moderate
acne patients.

Abstract

-
Laccase3 is an important virulence factor of the fungus Cryphonectria
parasitica. Laccase3 gene (lac3) transcription is
induced by tannic acid, a group of phenolic compounds found
in chestnut trees, and its induction is regulated by the hypovirus
CHV1 infection. CpHsp24, a small heat shock protein
gene of C. parasitica, plays a determinative role in stress adaptation
and pathogen virulence. Having uncovered in our previous
study that transcriptional regulation of the CpHsp24
gene in response to tannic acid supplementation and CHV1
infection was similar to that of the lac3, and that conserved
phenotypic changes of reduced virulence were observed in
mutants of both genes, we inferred that both genes were implicated
in a common pathway. Building on this finding, in this
paper we examined whether the CpHsp24 protein (CpHSP24)
was a molecular chaperone for the lac3 protein (LAC3). Our
pull-down experiment indicated that the protein products
of the two genes directly interacted with each other. Heterologous
co-expression of CpHsp24 and lac3 genes using Saccharomyces
cerevisiae resulted in more laccase activity in the cotransformant
than in a parental lac3-expresssing yeast strain.
These findings suggest that CpHSP24 is, in fact, a molecular
chaperone for the LAC3, which is critical component of fungal
pathogenesis.

Abstract

As a microsymbiont of soybean, Bradyrhizobium japonicum
plays an important role in symbiotic nitrogen fixation and
sustainable agriculture. However, the survival of B. japonicum
cells under water-deplete (e.g., drought) and water-replete
(e.g., flood) conditions is a major concern affecting their
nitrogen-fixing ability by establishing the symbiotic relationship
with the host. In this study, we isolated a water stress tolerant
rhizobium from soybean root nodules and tested its
survival under water-deplete conditions. The rhizobium was
identified as Bradyrhizobium japonicum and named strain
5038. Interestingly, both plate counting and live/dead fluorescence
staining assays indicate that a number of viable but
non-culturable cells exist in the culture medium upon the rehydration
process which could cause dilution stress. Bradyrhizobium
japonicum 5038 cells increased production of exopolysaccharide
(EPS) and trehalose when dehydrated, suggesting
that protective responses were stimulated. As expected,
cells reduced their production upon the subsequent rehydration.
To examine differential gene expression of B. japonicum
5038 when exposed to water-deplete and subsequent waterreplete
conditions, whole-genome transcriptional analysis was
performed under 10% relative humidity (RH), and subsequent
100% RH, respectively. A total of 462 differentially expressed
genes (DEGs, > 2.0-fold) were identified under the 10% RH
condition, while 3,776 genes showed differential expression
during the subsequent rehydration (100% RH) process. Genes
involved in signal transduction, inorganic ion transport, energy
production and metabolisms of carbohydrates, amino
acids, and lipids were far more up-regulated than downregulated
in the 10% RH condition. Notably, trehalose biosynthetic
genes (otsAB, treS, and treYZ), genes ligD, oprB, and
a sigma factor rpoH were significantly induced by 10% RH.
Under the subsequent 100% RH condition, genes involved in
transcription, translation, cell membrane regulation, replication
and repair, and protein processing were highly up-regulated.
Interestingly, most of 10%-RH inducible genes displayed
rehydration-repressed, except three genes encoding heat shock
(Hsp20) proteins. Therefore, this study provides molecular
evidence for the switch of gene expression of B. japonicum
cells when encountered the opposite water availability from
water-deplete to water-replete conditions.

Abstract

Three rod-shaped, Gram-stain-positive, and catalase-positive,
phenotypically closely related isolates (HY052T, HY050, and
HY045) were obtained from fecal samples collected from bats
in Guangxi province and Chongqing city of China. Circular,
smooth, light-yellow colonies appeared on brain heart infusion
plate after 24–48 h incubation at 28°C. The optimal pH
for growth was between 6.0 and 7.5. Based on 16S rRNA, the
three isolates were phylogenetically related to Agromyces terreus
DS-10T, Agromyces aureus AR33T, Agromyces salentinus
20-5T, Agromyces allii UMS-62T, Agromyces lapidis CD55T,
and Agromyces italicus CD1T. Moreover, based on 296 core
genes, the phylogenomic tree indicated that the three isolates
clustered together, closest to Agromyces cerinus VKM Ac-
1340T and Agromyces fucosus VKM Ac-1345T but separated
distantly from other Agromyces species. The average nucleotide
identity values between strain HY052T and other Agromyces
species ranged from 79.3% to 87.9%, lower than the
95–96% threshold. Furthermore, the genome of strain HY052T
contains a circular chromosome of 3,437,203 bp with G + C
content of 69.0 mol%. Main fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0
and anteiso-C17:0. The polar lipids comprised diphosphatidylglycerol,
phosphatidylglycerol, and unidentified glycolipids.
Rhamnose, ribose, and glucose were the primary cell wall sugars.
The major peptidoglycan amino acids included alanine,
glutamic acid, glycine, and 2,4-diaminobutyric acid. An additional
remarkable difference from other Agromyces species
is that MK-12 was the sole menaquinone in strain HY052T.
Based on results from the polyphasic characterizations performed
in this study, our isolates are proposed to be members
of a novel species in genus Agromyces, named Agromyces
laixinhei. The type strain is HY052T (= CGMCC 1.17175T =
JCM 33695T).

Abstract

A polyphasic taxonomic approach was used to characterize
two novel bacterial strains, HDW17AT and HDW17BT, isolated
from the intestine of the diving beetle Cybister lewisianus,
and the dark diving beetle Hydrophilus acuminatus,
respectively. Both strains were Gram-positive and facultative
anaerobic cocci forming cream-colored colonies. The isolates
grew optimally at 25°C, pH 7, in the presence of 0.3% (wt/vol)
NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences
and genome sequences showed that the isolates were
members of the genus Vagococcus, and strain HDW17AT was
closely related to Vagococcus fessus CCUG 41755T (98.9% of
16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and 74.3% of average
nucleotide identity [ANI]), whereas strain HDW17BT was
closely related to Vagococcus fluvialis NCFB 2497T (98.9% of
16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and 76.6% of ANI). Both
strains contained C16:0, and C18:1 ω9c as the major cellular fatty
acids, but C16:1 ω9c was also observed only in strain HDW17BT
as the major cellular fatty acid. The respiratory quinone of the
isolates was MK-7. The major polar lipid components were
phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and diphosphatidylglycerol.
The genomic DNA G + C content of strains
HDW17AT and HDW17BT were 36.6 and 34.4%, respectively.
Both strains had cell wall peptidoglycan composed of the
amino acids L-alanine, glycine, D-glutamic acid, L-tryptophan,
L-lysine, and L-aspartic acid, and the sugars ribose, glucose,
and galactose. Based on phylogenetic, phenotypic, chemotaxonomic,
and genotypic analyses, strains HDW17AT and
HDW17BT represent two novel species in the genus Vagococcus.
We propose the name Vagococcus coleopterorum sp.
nov. for strain HDW17AT (= KACC 21348T = KCTC 49324T
= JCM 33674T) and the name Vagococcus hydrophili sp. nov.
for strain HDW17BT (= KACC 21349T = KCTC 49325T =
JCM 33675T).

Abstract

Terminators and introns are vital regulators of gene expression
in many eukaryotes; however, the functional importance
of these elements for controlling gene expression in Agaricomycetes
remains unclear. In this study, the effects of Ceriporiopsis
subvermispora terminators and introns on the expression
of a recombinant hygromycin B phosphotransferase
gene (hph) were characterized. Using a transient transformation
system, we proved that a highly active terminator (e.g.,
the gpd terminator) is required for the efficient expression of
the hph gene. Mutational analyses of the C. subvermispora
gpd terminator revealed that hph expression was dictated by
an A-rich region, which included a putative positioning element,
and polyadenylation sites. In contrast, our results indicated
that introns are not required for the expression of
hph directed by the Csβ1-tub and Csgpd promoters in C.
subvermispora. This study provides insights into the functions
and cis-element requirements of transcriptional terminators
in Agaricomycetes, which may be relevant for designing
recombinant genes for this important fungal class.

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) predisposes newborns
to inflammatory and metabolic disturbance. Disequilibrium
of gut microbiota in early life has been implicated
in the incidence of inflammation and metabolic diseases in
adulthood. This study aimed to investigate the difference in
gut microbiota colonization, cytokines and plasma metabolome
between IUGR and normal birth weight (NBW) piglets
in early life. At birth, reduced (P < 0.05) body, jejunum, and
ileum weights, as well as decreased (P < 0.05) small intestinal
villi and increased (P < 0.05) ileal crypt depth were observed
in IUGR piglets compared with their NBW counterparts. Imbalanced
inflammatory and plasma metabolome profile was
observed in IUGR piglets. Furthermore, altered metabolites
were mainly involved in fatty acid metabolism and inflammatory
response. At 12 h after birth and after suckling colostrum,
reduced (P < 0.05) postnatal growth and the small intestinal
maturation retardation (P < 0.05) continued in IUGR
piglets in comparison with those in NBW littermates. Besides,
the gut microbiota structure was significantly altered
by IUGR. Importantly, the disruption of the inflammatory
profile and metabolic status mainly involved the pro-inflammatory
cytokines (IL-1β and IFN-γ) and amino acid metabolism.
Moreover, spearman correlation analysis showed
that the increased abundance of Escherichia-Shigella and decreased
abundance of Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 in IUGR
piglets was closely associated with the alterations of slaughter
weight, intestinal morphology, inflammatory cytokines, and
plasma metabolites. Collectively, IUGR significantly impairs
small intestine structure, modifies gut microbiota colonization, and disturbs inflammatory and metabolic profiles during
the first 12 h after birth. The unbalanced gut microbiota
mediated by IUGR contributes to the development of inflammation
and metabolic diseases.

Abstract
PDF
-
Statin response shows great interindividual variations. Recently,
emerging studies have shown that gut microbiota is
linked to therapeutic responses to drugs, including statins.
However, the association between the gut bacteria composition
and statin response is still unclear. In this study, gut
microbiota of 202 hyperlipidemic patients with statin sensitive
(SS) response and statin resistant (SR) response in
East China were investigated by high throughput sequencing
to compare the gut bacteria composition and biodiversity
in distinct statin response patients. Higher biodiversity was
detected in Group SS than Group SR. Specifically, group SS
showed significantly increased proportion of genera Lactobacillus
(P = 0.001), Eubacterium (P = 0.004), Faecalibacterium
(P = 0.005), and Bifidobacterium (P = 0.002) and decreased
proportion of genus Clostridium (P = 0.001) compared
to Group SR. The results indicated that higher gut biodiversity
was associated with statin sensitive response. The
increased genera Lactobacillus, Eubacterium, Faecalibacterium,
Bifidobacterium, and decreased genus Clostridium in
patient gut microbiota may predict patient's statin response,
and hence may guide statin dosage adjustments.

Abstract

Diarrhea is a fatal disease to neonatal calves, and rotavirus is
the main pathogen associated with neonatal calf diarrhea.
Although previous studies have reported that the gut microbiota
is changed in calves during diarrhea, less is known
about whether rotavirus infection alters the structure of the
gut microbiota. Here, we characterized fecal microbial communities
and identified possible relationships between the
gut microbiota profiles and physiological parameters. Five
fecal specimens of rotavirus-infected calves from 1 to 30 days
after birth and five fecal specimens of age-matched healthy
calves were used for the microbial community analysis using
the Illumina MiSeq sequencer. Rotavirus infection was
associated with reduced rotavirus infection significantly reduced
the richness and diversity of the bacterial community.
Weighted unique fraction metric analysis exhibited significant
differences in community membership and structure between
healthy and rotavirus-infected calves. Based on relative abundance
analysis and linear discriminant analysis effect size, we
found that the representative genera from Lactobacillus, Subdoligranulum,
Blautia, and Bacteroides were closely related to
healthy calves, while the genera Escherichia and Clostridium
were closely affiliated to rotavirus-infected calves. Furthermore,
canonical correlation analysis and Pearson correlation
coefficient results revealed that the increased relative abundances
of Lactobacillus, Subdoligranulum, and Bacteroides
were correlated with normal levels of physiological characteristics
such as white blood cells, blood urea nitrogen, serum
amyloid protein A, and glucose concentration in serum. These
results
suggest that rotavirus infection alters the structure
of the gut microbiota, correlating changes in physiological

Abstract
PDF
-
Massive DNA sequencing studies have expanded our insights
and understanding of the ecological and functional
characteristics of the gut microbiome. Advanced sequencing
technologies allow us to understand the close association of
the gut microbiome with human health and critical illnesses.
In the future, analyses of the gut microbiome will provide
key information associating with human individual health,
which will help provide personalized health care for diseases.
Numerous molecular biological analysis tools have been rapidly
developed and employed for the gut microbiome researches;
however, methodological differences among researchers
lead to inconsistent data, limiting extensive share of
data. It is therefore very essential to standardize the current
method
ologies and establish appropriate pipelines for human
gut microbiome research. Herein, we review the methods
and procedures currently available for studying the human
gut microbiome, including fecal sample collection, metagenomic
DNA extraction, massive DNA sequencing, and data
analyses with bioinformatics. We believe that this review will
contribute to the progress of gut microbiome research in
the clinical and practical aspects of human health.

Abstract
PDF

The group of butyrate-producing bacteria within the human
gut microbiome may be associated with positive effects on
memory improvement, according to previous studies on dementia-
associated diseases. Here, fecal samples of four elderly
Japanese diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) were
used to isolate butyrate-producing bacteria. 226 isolates were
randomly picked, their 16S rRNA genes were sequenced,
and assigned into sixty OTUs (operational taxonomic units)
based on BLASTn results. Four isolates with less than 97%
homology to known sequences were considered as unique
OTUs of potentially butyrate-producing bacteria. In addition,
12 potential butyrate-producing isolates were selected
from the remaining 56 OTUs based on scan-searching against
the PubMed and the ScienceDirect databases. Those belonged
to the phylum Bacteroidetes and to the clostridial clusters I,
IV, XI, XV, XIVa within the phylum Firmicutes. 15 out of
the 16 isolates were indeed able to produce butyrate in culture
as determined by high-performance liquid chromatography
with UV detection. Furthermore, encoding genes for butyrate
formation in these bacteria were identified by sequencing
of degenerately primed PCR products and included the
genes for butyrate kinase (buk), butyryl-CoA: acetate CoAtransferase
(but), CoA-transferase-related, and propionate
CoA-transferase. The results showed that eight isolates possessed
buk, while five isolates possessed but. The CoA-transfer-
related gene was identified as butyryl-CoA:4-hydroxybutyrate
CoA transferase (4-hbt) in four strains. No strains
contained the propionate CoA-transferase gene. The biochemical
and butyrate-producing pathways analyses of butyrate
producers presented in this study may help to characterize
the butyrate-producing bacterial community in the gut of AD patients.

Abstract
PDF

Gut microbial diversity and the core microbiota of the Jinhua
pig, which is a traditional, slow-growing Chinese breed with
a high body-fat content, were examined from a total of 105
fecal samples collected from 6 groups of pigs at 3 weaning
ages that originated from 2 strains and were raised on 3 different
pig farms. The bacterial community was analyzed following
high-throughput pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA genes,
and the fecal concentrations of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs)
were measured by gas chromatograph. Our results showed
that Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were the dominant phyla,
and Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Clostridium, SMB53, and
Bifidobacterium were the most abundant genera. Fifteen predominant
genera present in every Jinhua pig sample constituted
a phylogenetic core microbiota and included the probiotics
Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, and the SCFAproducing
bacteria Clostridium, Prevotella, Bacteroides, Coprococcus,
Roseburia, Ruminococcus, Blautia, and Butyricicoccus.
Comparisons of the microbiota compositions and
SCFA concentrations across the 6 groups of pigs demonstrated
that genetic background and weaning age affected the
structure of the gut microbiota more significantly than the
farm. The relative abundance of the core genera in the pigs,
including Lactobacillus, Clostridium, Prevotella, Bacteroides,
Roseburia, Ruminococcus, Blautia, and Butyricicoccus varied
dramatically in pigs among the 2 origins and 3 weaning
ages, while Oscillospira, Megasphaera, Parabacteroides, and
Corynebacterium differed among pigs from different farms.
Interestingly, there was a more significant influence of strain
and weaning age than of rearing farm on the SCFA concentrations.
Therefore, strain and weaning age appear to be the
more important factors shaping the intestinal microbiome
of pigs.

Abstract
PDF
-
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a result of chronic inflammation
caused, in some part, by dysbiosis of intestinal
microbiota, mainly commensal bacteria. Gut dysbiosis can
be caused by multiple factors, including abnormal immune
responses which might be related to genetic susceptibility,
infection, western dietary habits, and administration of antibiotics.
Consequently, the disease itself is characterized as
having multiple causes, etiologies, and severities. Recent studies
have identified > 200 IBD risk loci in the host. It has been
postulated that gut microbiota interact with these risk loci
result
ing in dysbiosis, and this subsequently leads to the development
of IBD. Typical gut microbiota in IBD patients
are characterized with decrease in species richness and many
of the commensal, and beneficial, fecal bacteria such as Firmicutes
and Bacteroidetes and an increase or bloom of Proteobacteria.
However, at this time, cause and effect relationships
have not been rigorously established. While treatments
of IBD usually includes medications such as corticosteroids,
5-aminosalicylates, antibiotics, immunomodulators, and anti-
TNF agents, restoration of gut dysbiosis seems to be a safer
and more sustainable approach. Bacteriotherapies (now called
microbiota therapies) and dietary interventions are effective
way to modulate gut microbiota. In this review, we summarize
factors involved in IBD and studies attempted to treat IBD
with probiotics. We also discuss the potential use of microbiota
therapies as one promising approach in treating IBD.
As therapies based on the modulation of gut microbiota becomes
more common, future studies should include individual
gut microbiota differences to develop personalized therapy
for IBD.

Abstract
PDF
-
It is increasingly evident that bidirectional interactions exist
among the gastrointestinal tract, the enteric nervous system,
and the central nervous system. Recent preclinical and clinical
trials have shown that gut microbiota plays an important role
in these gut-brain interactions. Furthermore, alterations in gut
microbiota composition may be associated with pathogenesis
of various neurological disorders, including stress, autism, depression,
Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Therefore,
the concepts of the microbiota-gut-brain axis is emerging.
Here, we review the role of gut microbiota in bidirectional
interactions between the gut and the brain, including
neural, immune-mediated, and metabolic mechanisms. We
highlight recent advances in the understanding of probiotic
modulation of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders
via the gut-brain axis.

Abstract
PDF
-
In China’s swine industry, copper is generally supplemented
above the National Research Council (NRC) requirement
(2012) because of its antimicrobial properties and the potential
for growth promotion. Yet few are concerned about
whether this excess supplementation is necessary. In this
study, the 16S rRNA pyrosequencing was designed and used
to investigate the effect of dietary copper level on the diversity
of the fecal microbial community and the correlation of
copper level with the serum level of inflammatory cytokines
in Sprague-Dawley rat models. The results showed that the
diet containing a high level of Cu (120 and 240 mg/kg) changed
the microbial richness and diversity of rat feces associated
with the increased copper content in the rat ileac and colonic
digesta. Furthermore, a Pearson’s correlation analysis indicated
that an accumulation of unabsorbed copper in the chyme
was correlated with the microbial composition of the rat feces,
which was linked with TNF-α in serum. The results suggest
that dietary copper level may have a direct impact on circulating
inflammatory cytokines in the serum, perhaps inducing
an inflammatory response by altering the microbial composition
of rat feces. Serum TNF-α could be the chief responder
to excessive copper exposure.

Abstract

The gut bacterial community of wood-feeding beetles has
been examined for its role on plant digestion and biocontrol
method
development. Monochamus alternatus and Psacothea
hilaris, both belonging to the subfamily Lamiinae, are woodfeeding
beetles found in eastern Asia and Europe and generally
considered as destructive pests for pine and mulberry
trees, respectively. However, limited reports exist on the gut
bacterial communities in these species. Here, we characterized
gut bacterial community compositions in larva and imago of
each insect species reared with host tree logs and artificial
diets as food sources. High-throughput 454 pyrosequencing
of bacterial 16S rRNA gene revealed 225 operational taxonomic
units (OTUs) based on a 97% sequences similarity cutoff
from 138,279 sequence reads, the majority of which were
derived from Proteobacteria (48.2%), Firmicutes (45.5%), and
Actinobacteria (5.2%). The OTU network analysis revealed
7 modules with densely connected OTUs in specific gut samples,
in which the distributions of Lactococcus-, Kluyvera-,
Serratia-, and Enterococcus-related OTUs were distinct between
diet types or developmental stages of the host insects.
The gut bacterial communities were separated on a detrended
correspondence analysis (DCA) plot and by c-means fuzzy
clustering analysis, according to diet type. The results from
this study suggest that diet was the main determinant for gut
bacterial community composition in the two beetles.

Abstract
PDF
-
The human gastrointestinal tract is colonized by multitudes
of microorganisms that exert beneficial effects on human
health. Mounting evidence suggests that intestinal microbiota
contributes to host resistance against enteropathogenic
bacterial infection. However, molecular details that account
for such an important role has just begun to be understood.
The commensal microbes in the intestine regulate gut homeostasis
through activating the development of host innate
immunity and producing molecules with antimicrobial activities
that directly inhibit propagation of pathogenic bacteria.
Understanding the protective roles of gut microbiota
will provide a better insight into the molecular basis that underlies
complicated interaction among host-pathogen-symbiont.
In this review, we highlighted recent findings that help
us broaden our knowledge of the intestinal ecosystem and
thereby come up with a better strategy for combating enteropathogenic
infection.
