Survival strategies of human-associated microbes to drug exposure have been mainly studied in the context bona fide pathogens exposed antibiotics. Less well understood are survival non-pathogenic and host-associated commensal communities variety drugs xenobiotics which humans exposed. The lifestyle microbial commensals within complex offers a ways adapt different drug-induced stresses.

Synthetic communities can help uncover metabolic forces shaping microbial ecosystems. Yet, in case of the gut microbiota, culturing undefined media has prevented detection dependencies. Here we show, using chemically defined media, how species survival is jointly determined by supplied resources and community metabolism. We used 63 representative bacterial strains varied inoculum compositions to assemble stable 14 media. Over 95% showed markedly improved or diminished performance relative monoculture at least one condition, including 153 cases (21%) emergent survival, i.e., incapable surviving on their own but thriving a community, 252 (35%) community-driven extinctions. Through single additions exclusions, metabolomic analysis, ecological modelling, demonstrate inter-species dependencies – especially poor are mediated biotic nutrient supply. Our results highlight communal dividend as key force promoting diversity.

Abstract Contamination by industrial and agricultural chemicals like pesticides are a cause of great concern due to the risk human environmental health. While these often considered have restricted activity labelled as such, there concerns over broader toxicity range. Here we report impact 1076 pollutants spanning diverse chemistries indicated applications on 22 prevalent commensal gut bacteria. Our systematic investigation uncovered 588 interactions involving 168 chemicals, majority which were not previously reported antibacterial properties. Fungicides showed largest with circa 30% exhibiting anti-commensal We find that sensitivity chemical across species surprisingly correlates human-targeted drugs, suggesting common susceptibility mechanisms.

Abstract Clostridioides difficile infections often occur after antibiotic use, but they have also been linked to proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. The underlying mechanism—whether infection risk is due a direct effect of PPIs on the gut microbiome or changes in gastrointestinal pH—has remained unclear. To disentangle both possibilities, we studied impact omeprazole and pH key members human stool-derived microbial communities from different donors vitro . We then developed custom multiple-bioreactor system grow model community chemostat mode tested effects exposure, changes, their combination C. growth within this community.
