Abstract

Background: Gut microbiota has been extensively demonstrated to modulate host lipid metabolism. Higher intramuscular fat (IMF) accumulation in Chinese indigenous breed pigs is associated with their special gut microbiota structure. However, the specific microbes and metabolic pathways responsible for lipid deposition are still poorly understood.

Results: In the present study, a comparative analysis of the gut microbiota and metabolome in obese Ningxiang (NX) pigs and lean Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire (DLY) pigs was conducted. The results revealed a higher abundance of gut lactobacilli and a correlation of branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism pathway in NX pigs. We proceeded to verify the roles of various lactobacilli strains originating from NX pigs in BCAA metabolism and lipids deposition in SD rats. We demonstrated that L. reuteri is a fundamental species responsible for modulating lipid deposition in NX pigs and that increased circulating levels of BCAA are positively linked to greater lipid deposition. Additionally, it has been verified that L. reuteri originating from NX pigs has the ability to improve BCAA synthesis in the gut and enhance IMF content in lean DLY pigs. The expression of genes related to lipid synthesis was also significantly upregulated.

Conclusions: Taken together, our results imply that NX pig-derived L. reuteri regulates BCAA metabolism and plays a potential role in improving the meat quality of lean pig breeds through modulation of host intramuscular lipid deposition. The results provide a new strategy for improving the meat quality of commercial pigs by influencing host metabolism through supplementing dietary additives. Video Abstract.

期刊介绍： Microbiome is a journal that focuses on studies of microbiomes in humans, animals, plants, and the environment. It covers both natural and manipulated microbiomes, such as those in agriculture. The journal is interested in research that uses meta-omics approaches or novel bioinformatics tools and emphasizes the community/host interaction and structure-function relationship within the microbiome. Studies that go beyond descriptive omics surveys and include experimental or theoretical approaches will be considered for publication. The journal also encourages research that establishes cause and effect relationships and supports proposed microbiome functions. However, studies of individual microbial isolates/species without exploring their impact on the host or the complex microbiome structures and functions will not be considered for publication. Microbiome is indexed in BIOSIS, Current Contents, DOAJ, Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, PubMed Central, and Science Citations Index Expanded.
