The dysbiosis of gut microbiota observed in COPD patients also suggests a potential bidirectional interaction between the gut and lung. Communication between the gut and lung may occur through circulating inflammatory cells, gut microbial metabolites, and circulating inflammatory mediators, but the mechanism of bidirectional communication between the gut and lung in COPD is still under study. Therefore, more research is still needed in this area. In this review, we summarize recent clinical studies and animal models on the role of the gut-lung axis in the occurrence and development of COPD and its mechanisms, so as to provide ideas for further research in this field. In addition, we also summarized the negative effects of COPD medication on gut microbiota and the gut microbiota risk factors for COPD and proposed the potential prevention and treatment strategies.","PeriodicalId":12909,"journal":{"name":"Gut Microbes","volume":"97 1","pages":"2414805"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142489731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both pathogenic and commensal bacteria differentially bind to IgA with varying outcomes. Little is known regarding IgA dynamics immediately following microbial dysbiosis. Recent work shows that morphine treatment rapidly induces microbial dysbiosis within hours of administration. This microbial shift is characterized by the expansion of pathogenic bacteria with a concurrent decrease in commensal bacteria. Because of this rapid microbial shift, a murine model of chronic morphine treatment was used to gain insight on the host IgA response during early microbial disruption. Within 24 h, morphine treatment induces microbial dysbiosis which disrupts IgA-bacterial homeostasis, resulting in an increased concentration of unbound IgA with a corresponding decrease in the frequency of IgA-bound bacteria. Additionally, the increased concentration of unbound IgA is dependent on the microbiome, as microbial depletion abolishes the increase. At 48 h of morphine treatment, the frequency of IgA-bound bacteria increases and IgA-seq reveals increased IgA targeting of gram-positive bacteria. Both a whole-body TLR2 KO and treatment with the TLR inhibitor OxPAPC resulted in abrogation of IgA binding to bacteria, implicating modulation of IgA binding through TLR signaling. Finally, we identify that a sub-population of IgA+ B cells in the intestinal lamina propria has increased CD11b and TLR2 expression at 24 h of morphine treatment which could be a potential source of the observed IgA that targets gram-positive bacteria. Together, we demonstrate for the first time the role of TLR2 in IgA targeting of intestinal bacteria, and this study sheds light on the IgA dynamics during the initial hours of microbial dysbiosis.","PeriodicalId":12909,"journal":{"name":"Gut Microbes","volume":"235 1","pages":"2417729"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142488288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The major component of the cell envelope is the peptidoglycan, consisting of long linear glycan strands cross-linked by short peptide stems. During cell growth or under stress conditions, peptidoglycan fragments, the muropeptides, are released by bacteria and recognized by the host Pattern Recognition Receptor, promoting the activation of their innate defense mechanisms. The review sums up the salient aspects of microbiota-host interaction with a focus on the NOD-dependent immune response to bacterial peptidoglycan and on the accountability of muropeptide transporters in the crosstalk with the host and in antibiotic resistance.

The most common forms of diabetes are type 1 (T1D), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). T1D and T2D are chronic diseases affecting around 537 million adults worldwide and it is projected that these numbers will increase by 12% over the next two decades, while GDM affects up to 30% of women during pregnancy, depending on diagnosis methods. These forms of diabetes have varied origins: T1D is an autoimmune disease, while T2D is commonly associated with, but not limited to, certain lifestyle patterns and GDM can result of a combination of genetic predisposition and pregnancy factors. Despite some pathogenic differences among these forms of diabetes, there are some common markers associated with their development. For instance, gut barrier impairment and inflammation associated with an unbalanced gut microbiota and their metabolites may be common factors in diabetes development and progression. Here, we summarize the microbial signatures that have been linked to diabetes, how they are connected to diet and, ultimately, the impact on metabolite profiles resulting from host-gut microbiota-diet interactions.

This paper mainly summarizes the interaction between DF and gut microbiota, including the influence of DF on the colonization of gut microbiota based on its different physicochemical properties, and the physiological role of gut microbiota in destroying the complex molecular structure of DF by encoding carbohydrate-active enzymes, thus producing small molecular products that affect the metabolism of the host. Taking cardiovascular disease (Atherosclerosis and hypertension), liver disease, and immune diseases as examples, it is confirmed that some DF, such as fructo-oligosaccharide, galactooligosaccharide, xylo-oligosaccharide, and inulin, have prebiotic-like physiological effects. These effects are dependent on the metabolites produced by the gut microbiota. Therefore, this paper further explores how DF affects the gut microbiota's production of substances such as short-chain fatty acids, bile acids, and tryptophan metabolites, and provides a preliminary explanation of the mechanisms associated with their impact on host health. Finally, based on the structural properties of DF and the large heterogeneity in the composition of the population gut microbiota, it may be a future trend to utilize DF and the gut microbiota to correlate host health for precision nutrition by combining the information from population disease databases.","PeriodicalId":12909,"journal":{"name":"Gut Microbes","volume":"12 1","pages":"2416915"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142449306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Mucus consists primarily of densely glycosylated mucin glycoproteins. Mucin O-glycans influence mucus barrier properties and mucin-microbe interactions and are frequently altered during disease. In this study, we observed time-dependent and regiospecific alterations to intestinal mucin glycosylation patterns and the expression of mucin-associated glycosyltransferase genes during Giardia infection. Glycosylation alterations were observed in Giardia-infected mice in the upper small intestine, the site of parasite colonization, and in the distal colon, where active trophozoites were absent. Alterations occurred as early as day 2 post-infection and persisted in mice after parasite clearance. We also observed small intestinal goblet cell hyperplasia and thinning of the distal colon mucus barrier during early infection, and microbiota alterations and altered production of cecal SCFAs. Giardia-induced alterations to mucin glycosylation were at least in part dependent on microbiota dysbiosis, as transplantation of a dysbiotic mucosal microbiota collected from Giardia-infected mice recapitulated some alterations. This study describes a novel mechanism by which Giardia alters intestinal mucin glycosylation, and implicates the small intestinal microbiota in regulation of mucin glycosylation patterns throughout the gastrointestinal tract.","PeriodicalId":12909,"journal":{"name":"Gut Microbes","volume":"24 1","pages":"2412676"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142443735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
