Currently, it has been shown that supplementation of prebiotics or probiotics can modify the composition of GM and prevent the onset of prostate cancer. The microbiota can also affect drug metabolism and toxicity, which may improve the response to cancer treatment. The composition of the microbiome is crucial for therapeutic efficacy and a potential target for modulating treatment response. However, their clinical application is still limited. Additionally, GM-based cancer therapies face limitations due to the complexity and diversity of microbial composition, and the lack of standardized protocols for manipulating gut microbiota, such as optimal probiotic selection, treatment duration, and administration timing, hindering widespread use. Therefore, this review provides a comprehensive exploration of the GM's involvement in prostate cancer pathogenesis.

In agreement with this finding, Rrp6p/Rrp47p is demonstrated to exist as an exosome-independent complex, which preferentially associates with mature polyadenylated forms of these sncRNAs. Consistent with this observation, a C-terminally truncated version of Rrp6p (Rrp6p-ΔC2) lacking physical association with the core nuclear exosome supports their decay just like its full-length version. Polyadenylation is catalyzed by both the canonical and non-canonical poly(A) polymerases, Pap1p and Trf4p. Analysis of the polyadenylation profiles in WT and <i>rrp6</i>-Δ strains revealed that the majority of the polyadenylation sites correspond to either one to three nucleotides upstream or downstream of their mature ends and their poly(A) tails ranges from 10-15 adenylate residues. Most interestingly, the accumulated polyadenylated snRNAs are functional in the <i>rrp6</i>-Δ strain and are assembled into spliceosomes.

Hence, the present study aimed to assess the GM composition - focusing on sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) - in patients with severe, severe-active and moderate UC. Each one of the six enrolled patients provided two stool samples in the following way: one sample was cultivated in a modified SRB-medium before 16S rRNA sequencing and the other was not cultivated. Comparative phylogenetic analysis was conducted on each sample. Percentage of detected gut microbial genera showed considerable variation based on the patients' disease severity and cultivation in the SRB medium. In detail, samples without cultivation from patients with moderate UC showed a high abundance of the genera <i>Bacteroides</i>, <i>Bifidobacterium</i> and <i>Ruminococcus,</i> but after SRB cultivation, the dominant genera were <i>Bacteroides</i>, <i>Klebsiella</i> and <i>Bilophila</i>. On the other hand, before SRB cultivation, the main represented genera in patients with severe UC were <i>Escherichia-Shigella</i>, <i>Proteus</i>, <i>Methanothermobacter</i> and <i>Methanobacterium</i>. However, after incubation in the SRB medium <i>Bacteroides, Proteus, Alistipes</i> and <i>Lachnoclostridium</i> were predominant. Information regarding GM compositional changes in UC patients may aid the development of novel therapeutic strategies (e.g., probiotic preparations containing specific bacterial strains) to counteract the mechanisms of virulence of harmful bacteria and the subsequent inflammatory response that is closely related to the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":18397,"journal":{"name":"Microbial Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10939707/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140131865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
