重症急性胰腺炎时肠屏障破坏的机制及防治

众多因素参与了重症急性胰腺炎时肠屏障破坏的发生、发展，随之而来的菌群移位及内毒素血症又加重了肠屏障破坏，导致严重不良预后。本文综合了肠屏障受损的可能原因，同时针对发病原因提出了相应防治对策。     

Effects of endotoxin on intestinal hemodynamics, glutamine metabolism, and function

The purpose of this study was to investigate the intestinal hemodynamics and gut glutamine metabolism during endotoxemia, and their correlation with altered intestinal absorptive capacity and permeability. Seventeen Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. The endotoxin group (ENDO) recieved endotoxin (10 mg/kg intraperitoneally,n=9), while the control group (CONT,n=8) received saline injection. Twelve hours later, D-xylose (0.5 g/kg) and fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-dextran, 750 mg/kg) were given by oral gavage. One hour later abdominal aortic (AA) blood flow, superior mesenteric venous (SMV) flow, mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), and SMV pressure (SMVP) were also measured. The MAP, AA, and SMV blood flow decreased (P<0.05), while the CVP and SMVP increased (P<0.05) in the ENDO group as compared with the CONT group. The ENDO group showed significant decreases for both intestinal glutaminase activity and net intestinal glutamine uptake (P<0.05). The D-xylose concentration in SMV decreased significantly (P<0.05) in the ENDO group as compared with the CONT group. However, the plasma FITC-dextran concentration showed no significant difference between the groups. Endotoxin produced a hypodynamic effect in rats 12h after intraperitoneal administration in association with both a decreased intestinal glutamine metabolism and an absorptive capacity.     

The effect of the fiber components cellulose and lignin on experimental colon neoplasia

Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were pair-fed one of three nutritionally identical diets. One diet contained “low-fiber” (3.8% crude fiber); the others contained “high fiber” (28.7% crude fiber) composed of either cellulose or lignin. Although both “high fiber” diets had similar stool bulking effects, only the cellulose diet was associated with a reduction in 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced colon neoplasms. The cellulose diet was also associated with distinct changes in the gut bacterial profile and with a lowered serum cholesterol. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

肺部、肠道菌群及其相互作用与慢性阻塞性肺疾病发生发展的研究进展

慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）是一种常见的慢性呼吸系统疾病,对人类健康造成极大威胁。研究发现,COPD患者与健康人群相比,肺部菌群及肠道菌群的组成结构发生了显著改变,导致黏膜屏障功能及机体免疫稳态被破坏,进而加重病情。积极调节肺部、肠道菌群平衡对于干预COPD的发生、发展有着至关重要的作用,但目前关于肺部、肠道菌群及其相互作用机制在COPD中作用的总结和认识还有待进一步阐明。本文就健康人群以及COPD患者肺部、肠道菌群的组成特点及可能的相互作用机制,以及现阶段基于肺部、肠道菌群及其相互作用防治COPD的最新研究成果进行综述,以期为COPD的发病机制、早期诊断、预防与治疗研究提供新思路。     

高脂饮食诱导的内脏肥胖小鼠模型存在性别差异

目的:比较不同性别BALB/c小鼠采用高脂饮食建立肥胖模型的差异。方法:32只4周龄无特定病原体级BALB/c小鼠（雌雄各半）随机分为雌性对照组、雌性高脂组、雄性对照组和雄性高脂组,每组8只。雌性对照组和雄性对照组采用普通饮食,雌性高脂组和雄性高脂组采用高脂饲料喂养,喂养12周后测量小鼠体重、内脏脂肪比、空腹血糖、葡萄糖耐量、血脂、代谢相关激素水平,并采用16S rRNA测序检测小鼠粪便菌群构成。结果:高脂饮食干预导致雄性小鼠体重和内脏脂肪比明显增加,病理表现为单个脂肪面积明显增大,肝脏脂肪滴堆积,总胆固醇、空腹血糖、口服糖耐量试验时间-血糖曲线下面积以及血清胰岛素水平明显上升（均P<0.05）,并出现明显胰岛素抵抗（P<0.01）。而雌性高脂组体重、内脏脂肪比、血清胰岛素和瘦素水平与雌性对照组差异均无统计学意义（均P>0.05）。高脂干预后小鼠肥胖相关肠道菌群相对丰度显著变化并存在性别差异,其中雄性高脂组肥胖相关菌属（如布劳特菌）相对丰度明显增加,菌群结构变化更明显。结论:高脂饮食喂养12周4周龄BALB/c雄性小鼠可稳定建立以内脏脂肪堆积、代谢功能紊乱和肠道菌群变...     

种植体黏膜下微生物在健康种植体和种植体周炎中的构成与差异：一项横断面研究

目的：探索种植体黏膜下微生物在健康种植体和种植体周炎中的构成与差异,并分析与临床指标存在相关性的菌种,为种植体周炎的病因学研究提供参考。方法：采用横断面研究,共纳入49例患者,20例为健康种植体,29例为种植体周炎,共采集49份黏膜下微生物样本进行16S核糖体RNA(16S ribosomal RNA, 16S rRNA)基因高通量测序。对两组样本的多样性、菌群构成和差异物种进行分析和比较,采用Spearman相关性分析评价菌种与探诊深度(probing pocket depth, PPD)之间的相关性。结果：健康组的α多样性显著低于种植体周炎组[Chao1指数：236.85±66.13 vs. 150.54±57.43,P<0.001; Shannon指数：3.42±0.48 vs. 3.02±0.65,P=0.032]。主成分分析显示,两组样本的群落结构差异有统计学意义[相似性分析(analysis of similarities, ANOSIM),R²=0.243,P=0.001]。与健康种植体相比,种植体周炎黏膜下菌斑中的牙周致病菌显著增加,包括红色...     

Changes in gut bacterial communities in canaries infected by Macrorhabdus ornithogaster

Macrorhabdus ornithogaster is an opportunistic yeast that colonizes the gastric mucosa of many avian species. Until now, no studies have focused on the influence of a gastric infection on the balance of the intestinal microbiota of birds. In this study, 44 faecal samples from individual canaries, with and without M. ornithogaster infection, were analysed. The detection of the yeast was evaluated by 18S rRNA PCR. In order to evaluate the impact of the Macrorhabdus infection on the bacterial communities, culture-independent methods, by the use of amplicon-based sequencing as well as 16S rRNA-DGGE, were adopted. The different health status of animals affected the relative abundance of the main OTUs, with a greater diversification of the gut microbiota in healthy animals compared to the infected. In particular, Lactococcus, Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Lachnospiraceae, Propionibacterium and Weissella were found to be characteristic of uninfected animals (FDR?<?0.05), while Lactobacillus and Candidatus Arthromitus were characteristic of infected animals (FDR?<?0.05). Both these taxa have been reported as immunostimulatory, involved in immunological disorders. In infected animals the inferred metagenome assessed by PICRUST clearly showed a positive correlation between the presence of M. ornithogaster and KEGG genes related to ether lipid metabolism, already reported to be immunostimulatory by activation of macrophages and to play a pathophysiological role in several immunological disorders. Finally, our results show an interaction between infection of the digestive tract and intestinal microbiota of pet birds and provide insight into the changing of the complex enteric bacterial community.

• HIGHLIGHTS

• Macrorabdus ornithogaster is a gastric yeast that colonizes a wide range of birds.

• Differences were found between infected and healthy animals in gut microbiota.

• Candidatus Arthromitus was closely associated with infected birds.

• M. ornithogaster can affect intestinal microbiota composition of canaries.
