摘要

头孢替福治疗子宫炎奶牛提高了临床治愈的可能性,但与健康奶牛(非子宫炎)相比,并不能始终提高随后的怀孕率。我们检验了一种假设,即在产后1个月健康或产后5至10天诊断为子宫炎的奶牛中,头孢替福治疗对子宫微生物群或子宫内膜炎症没有影响。诊断为子宫炎的奶牛与健康奶牛在2 × 2因子设计中配对,其中它们要么用抗生素(盐酸头孢替福)治疗,要么不治疗。产后1个月屠宰奶牛采集子宫,采用细菌学和16S rRNA基因测序法测定子宫微生物群。检查子宫腔内是否有化脓性物质,组织学上评估子宫内膜内的炎症。当产后1个月从子宫腔中培养细菌时,与健康奶牛相比,从先前诊断为子宫炎的奶牛中分离出的菌种数量更多,形成的菌落数量更多。在疾病诊断时(产后5至10天)给予抗生素治疗对健康奶牛产后1个月时可培养细菌的丰度没有影响,但减少了先前诊断为子宫炎的奶牛子宫中可培养细菌的数量。基于16S rRNA基因测序,最初诊断为子宫炎的奶牛产后1个月的测序读数比最初认为健康的奶牛多。此外,无论最初的疾病诊断如何,产后5至10天的抗菌治疗减少了产后1个月的测序读数。产后1个月子宫腔内出现脓性或子宫炎样分泌物对子宫微生物群有重要影响。组织病理学分析显示,产后1个月子宫内出现化脓性物质或出现急性感染迹象与子宫炎症加重有关,而子宫潮红明显,但治疗对其影响最小。此外,抗生素处理对α-多样性(Faith’s系统发育多样性或Pielou’s均匀度)没有主要影响,微生物组成分析没有发现差异丰富的类群。然而,β-多样性分析(未加权UniFrac)显示,处理的效果虽小但显著,处理奶牛的组内变异性低于未处理奶牛,这表明对子宫微生物群有适度的均质作用。多项回归分析显示,处理后的奶牛中梭杆菌的相对丰度显著降低(145倍)。这一转变表明,部分恢复微生物群落在奶牛与乳腺炎向其健康的对应物相似的轮廓。此外,分析表明,产后1个月的子宫微生物群受化脓性物质的视觉检测、产后子宫炎的发生、抗生素治疗和发情周期的共同影响。我们拒绝了产后1个月早期头孢替福治疗不影响子宫微生物群的假设,并得出结论,头孢替福治疗对子宫微生物群和炎症有可测量的影响。

Evaluating differences in uterine microbiome and inflammatory status at 1 month postpartum associated with metritis and antibiotic treatment.

Ceftiofur treatment in cows with metritis enhances the likelihood of clinical cure but does not consistently improve subsequent pregnancy rates compared with healthy (nonmetritis) cows. We tested the hypothesis that ceftiofur treatment has no effect on uterine microbiota or endometrial inflammation at 1 mo postpartum in cows that were either healthy or diagnosed with metritis at 5 to 10 d postpartum. Cows diagnosed with metritis were matched with healthy cows in a 2 × 2 factorial design where they were either treated with an antibiotic (ceftiofur hydrochloride) or left untreated. Cows were slaughtered to collect the uterus at 1 mo postpartum, and the uterine microbiota was measured using bacteriology and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The lumen of the uterus was examined visually for the presence of purulent material, and inflammation within the endometrium was assessed histologically. When bacteria were cultured from the lumen of the uterus at 1 mo postpartum, a greater number of species was isolated and a greater number of colonies formed from cows that were previously diagnosed with metritis compared with healthy cows. Antibiotic treatment administered at the time of disease diagnosis (5 to 10 d postpartum) had no effects on the abundance of culturable bacteria at 1 mo postpartum in healthy cows but reduced the number of culturable bacteria from the uterus of cows previously diagnosed with metritis. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, cows originally diagnosed with metritis had an increased number of sequencing reads 1 mo postpartum than cows initially deemed healthy. Furthermore, antimicrobial treatment 5 to 10 d postpartum decreased the number of sequencing reads 1 mo postpartum irrespective of the initial disease diagnosis. The presence of purulent or metritis-like discharge in the uterine lumen 1 mo postpartum had a major effect on the uterine microbiota. Histopathological analysis revealed that the presence of purulent material in the uterus or signs of acute infection at 1 mo postpartum was associated with greater uterine inflammation compared with a clear uterine flush but minimally affected by treatment. Furthermore, antibiotic treatment had no main effect on α-diversity (Faith's phylogenetic diversity or Pielou's evenness), and no differentially abundant taxa were detected by analysis of composition of microbes. However, β-diversity analyses (unweighted UniFrac) showed a small but significant effect of treatment, with treated cows having lower within-group variability than untreated cows, suggesting a modest homogenizing effect on the uterine microbiota. A multinomial regression analysis revealed a marked reduction (145-fold) in the relative abundance of Fusobacterium in treated cows. This shift suggests a partial restoration of the microbial community in cows with metritis toward a profile resembling that of their healthy counterparts. Additionally, the analysis indicated that the uterine microbiota at 1 mo postpartum was collectively influenced by visual detection of purulent material, occurrence of metritis postpartum, antibiotic treatment, and estrus cyclicity. We rejected the hypothesis that early postpartum ceftiofur treatment did not affect uterine microbiota at 1 mo postpartum and concluded that ceftiofur treatment had a measurable effect on uterine microbiota and inflammation.
