1 The human gut microbiota Marco Ventura, PhD. Laboratory of Probiogenomics, Department of Life Sciences University of Parma, Italy 1
2 The Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) The gastrointestinal tract begins with the mouth, leads to the oesophagus and extends through the stomach, small and large intestine, ending at the distal intestine. 2
3 Human GIT microbiota The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of human beings is a complex ecosystem whose bacterial populations (microbiota) show the highest densities in natural ecosystems. The human GIT microbiota acts as a multifunctional organ that drives essential human functions. The composition of the human GIT microbiota is widely unknown. Bifidobacteria represent one of the first bacterial colonizers of the GIT. 3 Turroni et al., 2008; Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
4 The GIT microbiota II The gut contains our largest collection of resident microorganisms. Up to bacteria/g in the large intestine of adult. Adult humans are composed of an estimated 10 times more resident microbial than human cells. The GIT microbiota includes both an indigenous microflora (autochthons) and a foreign microflora (contaminant). The composition of autochthonous microbiota is largely unknown. 4
5 Microbial diversity in the human gut The adult GIT contains all three domains of life, Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya. The divisions that predominate are: Bacteroides (e.g. Bacteroides) Actinobacteria (e.g. Bifidobacterium) Firmicutes (e.g. Lactobacillus) Flavobacterium 5
6 How microbes and humans have coevolved in the intestine Human intestine is lined with an epithelium that turns over rapidly and continuously throughout life. The gut epithelium is overlaid by a mucous-polysaccharide gel layer that constitute a biofilm-like community. Emerging evidences suggests that a dynamic interplay between the microbiota, the mucosal immune system and mucous gel layer may affect microbial community structure in the intestine. 6
7 Bacterial colonisation of the GIT At the birth stage, the human GIT is sterile. The first bacterial colonisation occurs during childbearing. The composition of intestinal microbiota is affected by the different weaning system, i.e. breast-feeding or bottle-feeding. -Breast-feeding: bifidobacteria and LAB -Bottle-feeding: streptococcae and enterobacteria. With ageing the GIT microbiota changes and becoming more complex. 7
8 Human GIT microbiota Up to 1000 species 70% unculturable Closely co-evolved microbial partners Interactions with; Diet Drugs Immune system Gut physiology Systemic metabolism 8 Turroni et al., 2008; Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
9 Relevance of the GIT microbiota Ulcers, gastric cancer Intestinal putrefaction Colon cancer IBD IBS Obesity? Diarrhoea, infections, toxin production Inhibition harmful bacteria H. pylori Digestion/ absorption of food Staphylococci ingredients & minerals C. difficile (SCFA) C. perfringens Immunomodulation Veillonellae Phytochemical Streptocci/Enterococci conversions E. coli Sulphate Reducers Bacteroides Bifidobacteria Lactobacilli C. leptum; C. coccoides; Eubacterium sp. Health status 11 Vitamin Synthesis 9
10 Microbial markers and metabolic disorders Specific microbial taxa are often associated with metabolic disorders such as obesity and diabetes. In obese as well as diabetes patients there is a considerably decline in the population of bifidobacteria Turnbaugh et al., 2009, Nature; Ley et al., 2005, PNAS; Cani et al., 2007, Diabetologia.
11 The human GIT microbiota and bifidobacteria The GIT microbiota is originated at the time of birth from mother s microflora. Bifidobacteria represent one of the first bacterial colonizers of the GIT 11
12 Bifidobacterial ecology Bifidobacteria are commensals of the gastro intestinal tracts (GIT) of humans and animals. Bifidobacterium breve Bifidobacterium bifidum Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum Bifidobacterium adolescentis Bifidobacterium catenulatum Bifidobacterium angulatum Bifidobacterium gallicum Bifidobacterium dentium Bifidobacterium tsurumiense Bifidobacterium scardovii Bifidobacterium coryneforme Bifidobacterium indicum Bifidobacterium asteroides Human gut Oral cavity Human blood Insect Bifidobacterium pseudolongum subsp. pseudolongum Bifidobacterium thermacidophilum subsp. porcinum Bifidobacterium psychraerophilum Bifidobacterium thermophilum Bifidobacterium longum subsp. suis Bifidobacterium choerinum Bifidobacterium animalis subsp animalis/lactis Bifidobacterium cuniculi Bifidobacterium magnum Bifidobacterium saeculare Bifidobacterium ruminantium Bifidobacterium merycicum Bifidobacterium pseudolongum subsp. globosum Bifidobacterium boum Bifidobacterium gallinarum Bifidobacterium pullorum Animal gut Bifidobacterium thermacidophilum subsp. thermacidophilum Bifidobacterium minimum Sewage Few bifidobacterial species possess a cosmopolitan lifestyle 12 Ventura et al., 2004; Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
13 Turroni et al, 2009, AEM. Bifidobacterial ecology of the GIT A polyphasic approach involving culture-based methods followed by bacterial identification through the sequencing of 16S-ITS rrna allowed to assess the bifidobacterial diversity of the human GIT microbiota. Bifidobacteria Isolation Seven main taxa forms the intestinal bifidobacterial microbiota Sampling 34 mucosal samples 34 fecal samples 900 isolates S-ITS sequences Bifidobacteria Identification Bifidobacteria s rrna sequence database 13
14 Bifidobacterial diversity in the GIT Turroni et al, 2009 AEM highly variable at inter-subject level; Bifidobacterial populations are: Very different between fecal and mucosal microbiota. stable between different mucosal sites within the same subject; Authocthous vs. allocthonous microbiota are different Few bifidobacterial isolates are widely distributed in the GIT A higher ecological fitness of these bacteria? 14
15 Ventura et al., 2009, FBS Novel approaches to study gut biodiversity: microbiomics Culture independent approaches, such as metagenomics, allowed to get a high level of resolution of the biodiversity of complex microbial communities Gut microbiota Culturable bacteria Unculturable bacteria 15

21 Bifidobacterial biodiversity in the infant gut Environmental sampling Chromosomal DNA extraction Enzymatic and mechanical lysis 16S PCR amplification of 16S rrna gene Primers Puni6-P6 ITS Next generation sequencing and taxa identification 23S Puni6 P6 11 infant faecal samples (collected from 3 different geographical origin) and 4 mothers. We obtained a total of reads.
22 Interindividual variability detected in the infant gut microbiota Phylum Family Bifidobacterium genus PCoA highlighted that there is no correlation between any of the classification parameters considered. Turroni et al, 2012, PLoS One, in press
23 Similarities and differences among population patterns OTU corresponding to B. longum OTU corresponding to B. pseudocatenulatum OTU corresponding to Str. thermophilus OTUs corresponding to Ruminococcaceae and uncultured Clostridiales There are common OTUs between infant- and adult- samples. Turroni et al, 2012, PLoS One, in press
24 Analysis of the core microbiota of infant/mother subjects Mothers Phylum Family Bifidobacterium genus Infants Taxonomical classification of the two datasets revealed large differences between infants and adults. With respect to the genus Bifidobacterium, no bifidobacterial species are unique of infants or adults. Turroni et al, 2012, PLoS One, in press
25 A novel approach to understand genetic biodiversity of complex environments: metagenomics Gut microbes outnumbered human cells by a factor of 10; The overall gene set of gut microbes is 150-times higher than the human genome; Although certain microbial species appear to be shared between individuals, considerable variation occurs both in types of microbes and in diversity of microbial genes at inter-individual level; Isolation of DNA from environmental samples followed by direct DNA sequencing allows to identify the microbial gene content of that environment; Metagenomics and Microbiome

32 Progresses of scientific knowledge and gut microorganisms Microbiomic Metagenomics 32
33 Conclusions The composition of the human gut microbiota is still largely unknown. Preliminary data demonstrated that phylogenetic changes are associated to various diseases and metabolic dysfunction. Gut microbial profiling data suggest that the count of specific bacteria (e.g., microbial biomarkers) is inversely related to fat mass development, inflammation and diabetes. Possible intervention with prebiotic and probiotic therapy could represent a valuable strategy in counteract the drop in target bacteria. Understanding the parameters that influence colonization, development and composition of the microbiota from a very early stage following birth, may be crucial for the development of strategies that guide formation of healthsustaining or -promoting microbiota into subsequent life stages. 33
