Abstract Objectives: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is more common in women, and many reports of sex differences have been reported various aspects RA. However, there has a lack specific research on women's gut flora. To assess the association between flora RA patients, this study combined microbiome with metabolomics. Methods: Fecal samples from patients healthy controls were collected for 16S rRNA sequencing. Nontargeted liquid chromatography‒mass spectrometry was used to detect metabolites fecal samples. We comprehensively analytical methods reveal changes intestinal female patients. Results: The significantly different that women. abundance Bacteroides, Megamonas Oscillospira higher while Prevotella, Gemmiger Roseburia lower than Gemmiger, Bilophila Odoribacter represented large microflora women could be as potential microorganisms diagnosis.

Viruses have been reported as inducers of tumorigenesis. Little studies explored the impact gut virome on progression colorectal cancer. However, there is still a problem with repeatability viral signatures across multiple cohorts.The present study aimed to reveal repeatable vial cancer and adenoma patients decipher potential markers in disease risk assessment for diagnosis.1,282 available fecal metagenomes from 9 published were collected. A catalog was constructed via reference-independent approach. Viral identified by cross-cohort meta-analysis used build predictive models based machine learning algorithms. New samples collected validate generalization models.The composition drastically altered compared healthy, evidenced changes some Siphoviridae Myoviridae viruses enrichment Microviridae, whereas variation relatively low. Cross-cohort 405 differential cancer, including several phages Porphyromonas, Fusobacterium, Hungatella that enriched control-enriched Ruminococcaceae phages. In discovery cohorts, optimal model obtained an average area under curve 0.830 discriminating controls. This also showed consistently high accuracy 2 independent validation cohorts (optimal curve, 0.906). Gut analysis 88 achieved 0.772 controls.Our findings demonstrate characteristics highlight virus-bacterial synergy The may be new targets treatment. addition, power prediction suggest biomarkers non-invasive diagnostic tests adenoma.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is influenced by oral and gut bacteria; however, much less known about the relationship between or viromes RA. Here, we performed whole-oral- whole-gut-virome analyses based on shotgun sequencing of 497 samples. A comparative analysis in healthy controls untreated treated RA patients was performed, system interaction networks among viruses, bacteria, RA-associated clinical indices were constructed to address potential virome principal-coordinate analysis, distance-based redundancy permutational multivariate Spearman correlation coefficient random-forest model analysis. The results showed that could be profiled dental plaque, saliva, fecal samples, which saliva had highest within-sample diversity. Importantly, significantly different diversities compositions (i.e., plaque saliva) observed not only but also patients, yet there relatively minor differences viromes. Furthermore, understand how these viruses affected bacteriome, a virus-bacterium network from samples patients. Additionally, some taxa, including Lactococcus phage (vOTU70), Bacteroides vulgatus, lactis, Escherichia coli, Neisseria elongata, correlated with RA-related indices.

Introduction Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a chronic autoimmune disease, has been linked to the gut bacteriome. Methods To investigate characteristics of virome in AS, we profiled viral community 193 AS patients and 59 healthy subjects based on metagenome-wide analysis fecal metagenomes from two publicly available datasets. Results revealed significant decrease richness considerable alteration overall structure. At family level, had an increased abundance Gratiaviridae Quimbyviridae decreased Drexlerviridae Schitoviridae . We identified 1,004 differentially abundant operational taxonomic units (vOTUs) between controls, including higher proportion AS-enriched Myoviridae viruses control-enriched Siphoviridae viruses. Moreover, vOTUs were more likely infect bacteria such as Flavonifractor , Achromobacter Eggerthellaceae whereas be Blautia Ruminococcus Collinsella Prevotella Faecalibacterium bacteriophages. Additionally, some functional orthologs differed significantly frequency vOTUs, suggesting role these AS-associated trained classification models signatures discriminate with optimal area under receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) up 0.936, clinical potential for diagnosing AS.
