ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the difference in bacterial flora between faeces and mucosa of sigmoid colon,the possible role and significance of microbiota alteration in the genesis of ulcerative colitis (UC).Methods Fusobacterium, Enterococcus, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacteroides and Escherichia were selected as target bacteria colonies.The content of six target bacteria colonies in faeces and mucosa of sigmoid colon of 35 UC patients (20 active UC, and 15 UC in remission) and 20 health controls were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Two independent samples t-test was performed to compare the differences in bacterial flora between faeces and mucosa of sigmoid colon.Variance analysis was used to compare the differences in bacterial flora among health controls group,active stage group and remission stage group.Results In health control group, the contents of Fusobacterium, Bacteroides, Enterococcus and Lactobacillus in faeces ((10.94 ± 0.29),(12.42±0.39), (8.73±0.84), (9.05±0.35), respectively) were higher than those in the mucosa of sigmoid colon ((9.36±0.66), (9.88±0.82), (7.70±1.17) and (7.96±0.68), respectively, t=9.83, 12.51, 3.20 and 6.35, all P<0.05).However, the content of Escherichia was lower in faeces than that in the mucosa of sigmoid colon ((8.03±1.02) lg copy/g vs (8.91±0.52) lg copy/g, t=-3.44, P<0.05).There was no difference in the content of Bifidobacterium between faeces and mucosa of sigmoid colon ((9.54±0.79) lg copy/g vs (9.42±0.98) lg copy/g, P>0.05).For UC patients, the contents of Fusobacterium, Bacteroides, Enterococcus, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium in faeces ((9.62 ±± 1.13),(11.31±0.71), (9.33±0.65), (8.42±0.80) and (8.85±0.73) lg copy/g, respectively) were higher than those in the mucosa of sigmoid colon ((9.00±0.79), (8.80±0.66), (7.46±0.82), (6.82±1.07) and (8.40±0.72) lg copy/g, respectively, t=2.66, 15.28, 10.58, 7.12 and 2.56, all P<0.05).The content of Escherichia was lower in faeces than that in the mucosa of sigmoid colon ((8.50 ± 0.52) lg copy/g vs (9.26±0.87) lg copy/g, t=-4.45, P<0.05).Compared with health control group, the content of Fusobacterium, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Bacteroides ((8.83 ± 0.81), (7.48 ± 1.59), (8.55±0.79) and (11.11±0.88) lg copy/g) all decreased (F=84.45, 14.58, 10.43 and 24.91, all P<0.05), while the contents of Enterococcus and Escherichia increased ((9.63 ± 0.39) and (8.74 ±0.53) lg copy/g, F=9.87 and 5.55,both P<0.05).For remission stage group, only the content of Bacteroides decreased ((11.56±0.21) lg copy/g, P<0.05).Compared with health control group, the contents of Fusobacterium, Bacteroides, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium ((8.52 ± 0.30), (8.34 ±0.29), (6.29±0.52) and (8.06±0.21) lg copy/g) all decreased in active stage group (F=16.99,35.98,22.28 and 16.08, all P<0.05);the content of Escherichia increased ((9.68±0.56) lg copy/g, F=11.19,P<0.05);there was no difference in the content of Enterococcus ((7.19±0.32) lg copy/g, P>0.05).In remission stage group, the contents of Bacteroides fragilis and Bifidobacterium decreased ((9.42±0.48) lg copy/g and (8.87±0.89) lg copy/g, both P<0.05), there was no difference in other bacterias (all P>0.05).In both faeces and mucosa of sigmoid colon, the ratios of Bifidobacterium and Enterobacteriaceae (B/E value) in active stage group were less than 1 (0.98±0.13 and 0.84±0.05),which significantly decreased compared with health control group (1.21 ± 0.19, 1.06 ± 0.08;F=12.64,76.20, both P<0.05).In remission stage group, B/E values were higher than 1 both in faeces and mucosa (1.14±0.08 and 1.02±0.04), and there was no difference compared with those of control group (P>0.05).Conclusions The distribution of target bacteria in feces and sigmoid colonis differed between health controls and UC patients.There are obvious changes in fecal and mucosa associated bacterial flora in UC patients especially in active stage compared with healthy controls.
