Abstract Prolonged use of antibacterial mouthwash is linked to increased risk systemic disease. We aimed investigate if disturbing the oral microbiota would impact lower gut microbiome with functional effects in diet-induced obesity. Mice were exposed chlorhexidine and fed a Western diet. Food intake weight gain monitored, metabolic function, blood pressure analyzed. Chlorhexidine reduced bacteria altered parts known be associated pathways. gain, body fat, steatosis, plasma insulin without changing caloric intake, while increasing colon triglycerides proteins demonstrating absorption these nutrients. The mechanisms behind as well link between small intestinal function need pinpointed. While short-term this model appear beneficial, potential long-term disruptions possible malabsorption should considered.

Emerging evidence indicates that alteration of gut microbiota plays an important role in chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related vascular calcification (VC). We aimed to investigate the specific and underlying mechanism involved CKD-VC. identified increased abundance Prevotella copri (P. copri) feces CKD rats (induced by using 5/6 nephrectomy followed a high calcium phosphate diet) with aortic via amplicon sequencing 16S rRNA genes. In patients CKD, we further confirmed positive correlation between P. scores. Moreover, oral administration live aggravated CKD-related VC osteogenic differentiation smooth muscle cells vivo, accompanied intestinal destruction, enhanced expression Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4), elevated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) levels. vitro ex vivo experiments consistently demonstrated copri-derived LPS (Pc-LPS) accelerated phosphate-induced VSMC differentiation. Mechanistically, Pc-LPS bound TLR4, then activated nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich–containing family, pyrin domain–containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome signals during VC. Inhibition NF-κB reduced NLRP3 attenuated Pc-LPS-induced calcification. Our study clarifies novel VC, mechanisms involving inflammation-regulating metabolites including Pc-LPS, activation NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway. These findings highlight its-derived as potential therapeutic targets for CKD.

ABSTRACT The gut microbiota of bats is vital for their roles in health and the ecosystem, yet studies on hibernating southwest China, particularly unique karst landscape Guizhou, are limited. We captured three bat species—Pipistrellus (PB), Rhinolophus (RB), Myotis (MB)—in Liping County, collecting rectal samples 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Data processing involved Trimmomatic, Flash, Qiime2 operational taxonomic unit (OTU) standardization species annotation via Greengenes database. Differential abundance was analyzed using LEfSe, diversity metrics were assessed through alpha beta analyses. RB group predominantly composed Proteobacteria (80.99%), while MB PB exhibited diverse compositions with significant OTU richness (729 MB). Notable genera included Hafnia Yersinia Cosenzaea myxofaciens MB. High proportions unclassified taxa observed, (83.81%). Functional predictions indicated metabolic pathways, a representation human diseases PB. Culturomics revealed successful cultivation Huaxiibacter chinensis Enterobacter chengduensis from first time appears to have identified new bacterium that likely closely related Clostridium paraputrificum . IMPORTANCE Our research reveals differences composition among groups (PB, MB, RB) Guizhou. While predominates all groups, its varies. Notably, high units (OTUs) suggests more microbial underscoring complex interactions between diversity, diet, microbiota, overall ecological dynamics bats. Furthermore, substantial presence unknown bacterial intestines highlights critical importance cultivation-based approaches. specific may potential implications both humans. These findings emphasize need further investigations into functional these contributions host health. Future should focus longitudinal elucidate intricate interactions.

BACKGROUND: Inflammation suppresses right ventricular (RV) function in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In particular, we showed GP130 (glycoprotein-130) signaling promotes pathological microtubule remodeling and RV dysfunction rodent PAH. Emerging data demonstrate the intestinal microbiome regulates systemic inflammation, but impact of modulating gut on GP130-microtubule axis failure is unknown. METHODS: Two weeks following monocrotaline injection, rats were administered daily Lactobacillus rhamnosus (4×10 7 colony-forming units) via oral gavage for 10 days. Next-generation metagenomics internal transcribed spacer 2 sequencing delineated fecal bacterial fungal compositions. SomaScan proteomics measured levels 7596 serum proteins. immunoblots quantified protein abundances. Light or super resolution confocal microscopy assessed RV, lung, jejunal morphology. Echocardiography invasive closed-chest pressure-volume loops evaluated PAH severity function. The relationship between abundance was 65 patients with RESULTS: administration restructured both micro- mycobiome. alteration ecosystem improved health as demonstrated by increased villus length glycocalyx thickness diminished permeability biomarkers.
