RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major global health burden. The current diagnostic tests have shortcomings of being invasive and low accuracy. AIM: To explore the combination of intestinal microbiome composition and multi-target stool DNA (MT-sDNA) test in the diagnosis of CRC. METHODS: We assessed the performance of the MT-sDNA test based on a hospital clinical trial. The intestinal microbiota was tested using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This case-control study enrolled 54 CRC patients and 51 healthy controls. We identified biomarkers of bacterial structure, analyzed the relationship between different tumor markers and the relative abundance of related flora components, and distinguished CRC patients from healthy subjects by the linear discriminant analysis effect size, redundancy analysis, and random forest analysis. RESULTS: MT-sDNA was associated with Bacteroides. MT-sDNA and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were positively correlated with the existence of Parabacteroides, and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was positively associated with Faecalibacterium and Megamonas. In the random forest model, the existence of Streptococcus, Escherichia, Chitinophaga, Parasutterella, Lachnospira, and Romboutsia can distinguish CRC from health controls. The diagnostic accuracy of MT-sDNA combined with the six genera and CEA in the diagnosis of CRC was 97.1%, with a sensitivity and specificity of 98.1% and 92.3%, respectively. CONCLUSION: There is a positive correlation of MT-sDNA, CEA, and AFP with intestinal microbiome. Eight biomarkers including six genera of gut microbiota, MT-sDNA, and CEA showed a prominent sensitivity and specificity for CRC prediction, which could be used as a non-invasive method for improving the diagnostic accuracy for this malignancy.

RESUMO

Obesity and atherosclerosis are the most prevalent metabolic diseases. ApoE-/- and ob/ob mice are widely used as models to study the pathogenesis of these diseases. However, how gut microbes, gut bacteriophages, and metabolites change in these two disease models is unclear. Here, we used wild-type C57BL/6J (Wt) mice as normal controls to analyze the intestinal archaea, bacteria, bacteriophages, and microbial metabolites of ob/ob and ApoE-/- mice through metagenomics and metabolomics. Analysis of the intestinal archaea showed that the abundances of Methanobrevibacter and Halolamina were significantly increased and decreased, respectively, in the ob/ob group compared with those in the Wt and ApoE-/- groups (p < 0.05). Compared with those of the Wt group, the relative abundances of the bacterial genera Enterorhabdus, Alistipes, Bacteroides, Prevotella, Rikenella, Barnesiella, Porphyromonas, Riemerella, and Bifidobacterium were significantly decreased (p < 0.05) in the ob/ob mice, and the relative abundance of Akkermansia was significantly decreased in the ApoE-/- group. The relative abundances of A. muciniphila and L. murinus were significantly decreased and increased, respectively, in the ob/ob and ApoE-/- groups compared with those of the Wt group (p < 0.05). Lactobacillus_ prophage_ Lj965 and Lactobacillus _ prophage _ Lj771 were significantly more abundant in the ob/ob mice than in the Wt mice. Analysis of the aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis metabolic pathway revealed that the enriched compounds of phenylalanine, glutamine, glycine, serine, methionine, valine, alanine, lysine, isoleucine, leucine, threonine, tryptophan, and tyrosine were downregulated in the ApoE-/- mice compared with those of the ob/ob mice. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are considered manifestations of metabolic diseases and are closely associated with obesity, atherosclerosis, and type 2 diabetes. These data offer new insight regarding possible causes of these diseases and provide a foundation for studying the regulation of various food nutrients in metabolic disease models.
