A COMPREHENSIVE METAGENOMIC CATALOGUE OF MICROBIOTA ACROSS BODY SITES IN PRIMATES: A HIGH FAT MATERNAL DIET ALTERS THE OFFSPRING MICROBIOME TO 1 YEAR OF AGE Kjersti Aagaard1, Radhika Ganu1, Antonio Frias2, Jun Ma1, Diana Takahashi3, Joseph Petrosino4, Kevin Grove5, James Versalovic6 1 Baylor College of Medicine, Obstetrics&Gynecology, Division of Maternal‐Fetal Medicine, Houston, TX, 2Oregon Health & Science University, Maternal Fetal Medicine, Portland, OR, 3Oregon Health & Science University, Oregon National Primate Research Center, Beaverton, OR, 4Baylor College of Medicine, Molecular Virology and Microbiology, Houston, TX, 5Oregon Health Sciences University, Oregon National Primate Research Center, Beaverton, OR, 6Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital, Pathology & Immunology, Houston, TX
[email protected] Microbiota are present from birth with up to 10‐fold the number of organisms (the "microbiome") and a collective genome (the “metagenome”) which exceeds ours by >100‐fold. An altered gut microbiome has been described in association with obesity and other disease states. However, how and when these altered microbiota communities take up residence are under explored. We reasoned that our well‐characterized primate model of maternal obesity would be an ideal means to decipher the relative contribution of maternal diet, obesity, and microbiota on the developmental microbiome. Age and weight‐matched dams were placed on control (13%) or HF (35%) diets. Over the study interval, distinct maternal cohorts emerged: obese HF diet sensitive [HFS], obesity‐ resistant [HFR], and lean [CTR]. 161 comprehensive body site samples (placenta, oral, GI, fecal, GU) from these dams and their offspring (fetal and 1yr) were deep sequenced (16S V5V3 rRNA gDNA; 454FLXTitanium). Data were QC filtered and exhaustively analyzed (OTU, genera; Canberra) using our custom supervised learning and QIIME pipelines. Extensive computational analysis was performed on 596 megabytes of generated metagenomic data (>1.8 million filtered reads of 494nt). We observed significant clustering of maternal and offspring (fetal and 1yr) OTU predominately by body site (>3285 OTU genera). Of noted interest, at 1yr of age the core gut microbiome is defined by a HF maternal diet and irrespective of obesity nor postwean diet . Using limited discriminate sets, we were able to classify offspring microbiome profiles by maternal diet (RandomForrest, 91.5% success). The maternal gut microbiome does not cluster by HFD. Employing state of the art metagenomics, we demonstrate that 16S‐based microbiome communities are conserved across primate species. Moreover, maternal diet (not obesity nor postnatal diet) establishes a perturbed microbiome in the offspring. These data suggest that the maternal diet profoundly influences the offspring microbiome and may thus serve to arbitrate later in life obesity.

The MetaHit human intestinal microbiome gene catalog (Qin et al. 2010) was extended to 3.9M genes throughout 396 stool samples (to be released shortly). However, less than 20% of the genes can be assigned taxonomy based on sequence similarity to known reference genomes (at 85% identity over 100bp). Alternatively, we reasoned that genes from the same DNA molecule (chromosome, etc.) should have very similar abundance profiles throughout the sample series. Using this co-abundance principle, 700 large Meta-Genomic Species (MGS), defined as clusters of tightly co-varying genes in metagenomic samples, were obtained. The majority of these MGS have no closely related reference genomes. By reassembling subsets of Illumina reads that match the co-varying MGS genes, and thereby reducing the sequence ambiguity, more than 40 MGS reached the HMP criteria for high quality draft genomes. In addition, more than 200 MGS matched 4 out of 6 criteria. This demonstrates, that meta-genomic sequencing of a series of human microbiome samples can yield high quality draft genomes without cultivation or single cell sequencing, and thus can contribute significantly with in nature captured reference genomes to the HMP set.
Towards petabase metagenomics : challenges and roadblocks ahead Manimozhiyan Arumugam EMBL, Meyerhofstrasse 1, 69117 Heidelberg
[email protected] Introduction of next‐generation sequencing into metagenomics has revolutionized the field while bringing an array of new challenges. The sheer amount of metagenomic data associated with large‐ scale microbiome studies such as MetaHIT and the Human Microbiome Project requires us to review metagenomic analysis tools. We identify several challenges while analyzing hundreds of samples using a metagenomic analysis pipeline optimized for next‐generation shotgun metagenomic sequences. We revisit the stratification of humans into enterotypes based on the gut microbial community composition and emphasize that consistent treatment and accounting for vital metadata are essential for proper interpretation of the results.

Effects of early life antibiotics on murine developmental phenotypes and immunity Martin J. Blaser, Laurie Cox, Shingo Yamanishi, Yael Nobel, Alexander V. Alekseyenko, Ilseung Cho, Douglas Mahana, Isabel Teitler, Kathie Mihindukulasuriya, George Weinstock, Erica Sodergren Antibiotic usage in human children for the treatment of early life infections is intensive, and is a relatively new (2.5 million reads (averaging 6,837 sequences/sample of 493 nt in length) were generated for computational analyses. A unique vaginal microbiome signature encompassing several specific OTUs and higher‐ level clades was observed and confirmed using a combination of phylogenetic, non‐phylogenetic, supervised, and unsupervised approaches. Both overall diversity and genus‐level richness were reduced in pregnancy. This intergroup comparison using rigorous standardized sampling protocols and analytical methodologies provides robust initial evidence that the vaginal microbial 16S rRNA gene catalogue uniquely differs in pregnancy, with variance of taxa across vaginal subsite and gestational age.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the involvement of intestinal microbiota in the development of T cell‐dependent autoimmune arthritis and to assess the feasibility of microbiota modulation as a therapeutic approach. Using interleukin‐1 receptor antagonist deficient (IL‐1Ra‐/‐) mice spontaneously developing a T cell‐ and interleukin (IL)‐17‐dependent severe arthritis, we found that the presence of microbiota is critical for disease development, since germ‐free IL‐1Ra‐/‐ mice did not develop arthritis at all. T cell production of IL‐1 and IL‐17 in response to anti‐CD3 activating antibodies and Toll‐like receptor ligands was substantially disrupted in germ‐free IL‐1Ra‐/‐ mice compared to conventionally housed mice. The association of specific fecal microbiota of IL‐1Ra‐/‐ mice with arthritis development was assessed using multiplex pyrosequencing of the V5 and V6 hyper‐variable regions of 16S rRNA with a 454 FLX instrument (Roche). Preliminary analysis revealed strong association between the genus Helicobacter and the development of arthritis. The feasibility of microbiota modulation as a therapeutic approach during established arthritis was assessed by a prebiotic diet containing 2.5% short‐chain galacto‐ and long‐chain fructooligosaccharides (scGos:lcFos, 9:1), known to selectively support growth of commensal Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli. This dietary intervention significantly suppressed the severity of arthritis and the accompanying joint destruction in IL‐1Ra‐/‐ mice and reduced the expression of T‐bet and RORγt, the Th1 and Th17‐related transcription factors. Furthermore, scGos/lcFos diet significantly improved bone mineral density and bone mineral content. Upon pyrosequencing, the relative abundance of Helicobacter in intestinal microbiota appeared to be reduced. Further analysis is currently ongoing. This study was financially supported by the Dutch government grant of Top Institute Pharma.

[email protected] We previously showed that tooth loss is associated with increased risk of total mortality in a population‐based cohort study in central China. Here we tested whether upper aerodigestive tract (UDT) microbiome diversity is associated with total mortality among 659 subjects aged 40‐65 years that were followed for 9 years after biosample collection. We characterized individual upper digestive tract microbiome using the HOMIM DNA microarray and used a unifrac distance matrix to conduct unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean cluster analysis and principal coordinate analysis (PCA). We compared cluster residence and principle coordinate scores using Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for potential confounders including age, sex, tobacco smoking, and alcohol drinking. Subjects had a median of 38 species in their UDT microbiome and subjects that died (N=68) had median of 2 fewer species than those that did not. We found support for 3 clusters in the distance matrix and found a significant (Fisher exact P = 0.019) difference in the distribution of deaths. Subjects in one cluster had a hazard ratio (HR) (95% confidence interval) of 2.02 (1.19‐3.43) compared to the largest cluster. Furthermore, a one standard deviation difference in PCA vector 3 score carried an HR (95% CI) of 1.17 (1.01‐1.35) or a significant 17% increase in the risk of death. Our study shows that UDT microbiome diversity is associated with risk of total mortality in a prospective cohort and that it was independent of many potential confounders.

Human skin microbial communities live at the interface with the surrounding environment. Some aspects of this microbiota are already known to affect human health. Here, we present our metagenomic analysis of two human skin metagenomes. A sufficient quantity of DNA was recovered to provide the first metagenomic study of human skin microbiota from two individuals at two subsequent time periods without a DNA amplification step. The metagenomes from the two sample times were relatively consistent, however significant differences were observed between the two individuals. The metagenome datasets were used to evaluate the functional potential of human skin microbiota as function of individual and temporal variations. These datasets from human skin microbiota were also compared to metagenomes from various other environments including human feces, and thus, demonstrated specific functional and taxonomical distributions. These specific differences (e.g., biofilms formation, antibiotic resistance) can help understand the life style of these communities and their potential role in human health.

(diversity
CC 0.05) among groups, which indicates that the consumption of PDX and SCF did not alter overall fecal bacterial diversity. The consumption of PDX and SCF led to increased (P < 0.05) fecal Clostridiaceae and Veillonellaceae, and decreased Eubacteriaceae. Faecalibacterium prausnitzii was increased (P < 0.05) after consumption of both fibers. Principal component analysis (PCA) clearly indicated distinct clustering of individuals consuming novel fibers as compared to those consuming NFC. The PCA loading plot indicated strong correlation of fecal SCFA with Lachnospiraceae, Ruminococcaceae, and Eubacteriaceae, suggesting that these families were the major producers of SCFA in our human subjects. Furthermore, distinct separation of total SCFA and metabolites of protein fermentation were observed. In conclusion, data demonstrated a beneficial shift in the gut microbiome of adults consuming PDX and SCF.

EBI Metagenomics: Studying the Functions of Metagenomes. Christopher I Hunter, Sarah Hunter EMBL‐EBI, Interpro, Cambridge, CB102AY, United Kingdom
[email protected] The EBI metagenomics portal (www.ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics) has been borne of the need to collate and integrate existing EBI resources currently used by metagenomics researchers, such as the European Nucleotide Archive, InterPro and UniProtKB, into a centralised and user friendly portal. Here we present the current analysis pipeline. To illustrate its use, we analysed a set of Human gut microbiome sequences from an obese and lean twins study published by Turnbaugh et al 2009(1). These data show ~50% of reads (Roche 454) per dataset are found to have matches to the InterPro database. The analysis results are in line with those reported by the authors. We also present future additions planned for the pipeline and an example of the analysis summary. Since this is work in progress, we are very keen to canvas potential users for their views and opinions on how this resource should evolve in order to reach our goal of becoming the European focal point of metagenomic data archiving and analysis.

The Data Analysis and Coordination Center for the Human Microbiome Project Heather Huot Creasy and the Data Analysis and Coordination Center Institute for Genome Sciences, 801 West Baltimore St, Baltimore MD 21201
[email protected] The NIH Common Fund Human Microbiome Project (HMP) has produced unprecedented amounts of information about the microbial communities living on and within humans. The Data Analysis and Coordination Center (DACC) of the HMP provides an infrastructure to enable the scientific community to access, analyze and interpret human microbiome data, with the ultimate goal of advancing our understanding of human health. In addition, the DACC is actively involved in working with the larger scientific community on development of new analysis tools, and in engaging the research community with outreach and training on the use of resources generated by the HMP. To this end, the DACC provides a web resource available at hmpdacc.org. This presentation will describe recent developments to this resource including the release of i) terabytes of sequence data from reference genomes, metagenomic 16s samples, and metagenomic wgs data, ii) MixS‐ compliant metadata associated with these datasets, iii) Illumina‐based and Illumina/454‐hybrid‐ based gene indices and clustered gene sets, iv) metabolic reconstruction analyses, and v) community profiling using both 16S and wgs data. We are actively implementing step‐by‐step tutorials called “walkthroughs” that will enable researchers, in particular those without extensive bioinformatics experience, to utilize HMP‐related tools and resources to reproduce HMP analyses using either HMP‐ generated or other data as input. Future directions of the web resource will also be described.

GA‐map™ ‐ a rapid, comprehensive gut microbiota analysis Heidi Vebø1, Monika Sekelja1, Selma Kreso1, Knut Rudi1,2, Morten L. Isaksen1 1. Genetic Analysis AS, Nycoveien 2, Oslo, Norway. 2. University of Life Sciences, Aas, Norway mi@genet‐analysis.com As the awareness of the effect of the gut microbiota on health is increasing, so is the need to find tools to study changes in the gut microbiota in a rapid, cost‐effective and high throughput format. Several methods are available, and each has their own strengths and weaknesses. Genetic Analysis AS has developed GA‐map™, a proprietary technology that can be used in rapid analysis of a large number of fecal samples in a cost‐effective way. The results from the assay can be directly linked to changes in the gut microbiota, and used to test a high number of samples rapidly. By using intelligent design of specific probes, the assay gives direct, quantitative signals that reflect the presence of a wide range of bacteria in the sample. The technology has been demonstrated as a useful tool for assessing health‐conditions like allergy, Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) and, Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and examples from work in these areas will be given.

Trillions of microbes in our gastrointestinal tract from a complex ecosystem (microbiota), characterised by high individuality and immense metabolic capacity. The GI microbiota essentially contributes to our health and alterations to it have been associated with many disease states. Advances in high‐throughput methods enable the characterization of the intestinal microbial core, i.e. the bacteria we all share. Here, we studied the presence and abundance of phylotypes from over 100 healthy individuals with phylogenetic microarray, HITChip. In order to define the common core we coupled the analysis with a novel computational approach and showed that the microbial core size is dependent on the analysis depth and the prevalence but also on the health status of the host. We estimate that approximately 30% of the detected over 1000 phylotypes are shared between the studied healthy subjects. These findings suggest that we share a larger part of our intestinal phylotypes than previously thought but as they represent highly variable proportions of the total community, many of them often remain undetected. In order to characterize the healthy intestine a selected subjects recorded a health related quality of life questionnaire, which enabled us to correlate minor intestinal symptoms to the microbial composition. We identified significant correlations between the microbiota and common intestinal symptoms, including abdominal pain and bloating. These novel findings will help to facilitate a conceptual definition of the common microbial core of healthy individuals and benchmark how minor intestinal symptoms experienced by these subjects affect the intestinal microbiota.

¥ http://eldermet.ucc.ie It is well known that diet strongly influences human health. It is also becoming increasingly clear that dietary modulation of the gut microbiota plays a large part in this effect. A recent study by Wu et al. (2011) showed that diets rich in animal protein led to a markedly higher abundance of Bacteroides species and depletion of Prevotella species, when compared to diet low in animal products and high in fruit and vegetables. Here we examine further the association between the microbiota and diet. Dietary data for 168 elderly subjects was collected through a semi-quantitative, 147-item, food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), weighted by 10 consumption frequencies. This was paired with 16S rRNA pyrotags sequenced from DNA extracted from feacal samples. Four dietary patterns were identified across four community locations. The diets could be described as combinations of low to high fat and low to high fibre with the most discriminating food types being vegetables, fruit and meat. The Prevotella to Bacteroides ratios were highest in the dietary group with the highest consumption of fruit and vegetables and the lowest consumption of meat. The Healthy Food Diversity index (HFD, Drescher LS et al, 2007) was calculated for each subject and was found to be significantly positively
correlated with microbiota diversity indices, suggesting that a healthy, diverse diet promotes a more diverse gut microbiota.

Functional Repercussions of Subclinical Intestinal Dysbiosis In Unaffected Relatives Of Crohn’s Disease Patients Joossens Marie, Lepage Patricia, Mayeur Camille, Machiels Kathleen, Thomas Muriel, Raes Jeroen, Rutgeerts Paul, Vermeire Séverine, Doré Joël

D‐ and L‐lactate are bacterial metabolites that are not recovered in feces of healthy subjects as they are converted to butyrate and other end‐products by bacterial cross‐feeding. Some publications report however, on the recovery of D‐ and L‐lactate in samples of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. As subclinical dysbiosis has also been reported in unaffected relatives of Crohn’s disease (CD) patients and UC patients, we studied if there might be a functional overlap between the dysbalanced microbiota of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients and that of their unaffected relatives. In a cohort of families with UC and/or CD patients we studied 7 UC patients, 11 CD patients, 26 unaffected relatives and compared them with 4 healthy controls. D‐ and L‐lactate were measured in their fecal samples using D/L‐lactic acid enzymatic kits (Biosentec, France). From the same fecal samples, we extracted total bacterial DNA to also analyze the bacterial composition using pyro‐ sequencing of the amplified 16 rDNA. Very low quantities of fecal D‐ and L‐lactate (median amount:1,05mM and 0,79mM respectively) were detected in 2 of the CD patients (18%), 1 of the UC patients (14%) and 5 of their unaffected relatives (19%) compared to none of the controls (ns). However, in one UC patient we measured 8,69mM D‐lactate and 27,99mM L‐lactate. We detected elevated levels of fecal D‐ and L‐lactate in one UC patient. In a next step we will assess correlations between the presence of D‐ and L‐lactate in fecal samples and the composition of the microbiota.

Anti‐inflammatory properties of commensal Steptococcus salivarius on human intestinal epithelial cells and in murine TNBS‐induced colitis model Ghalia Kaci*, Catherine Daniel, Bruno Pot, Joël Doré, S. Dusko Ehrlich, Pierre Renault, Hervé Blottière and Christine Delorme INRA, UMR1319 Micalis, F‐78350, France
[email protected] The commensal bacteria Streptococcus salivarius is one of the earliest colonizers of human mucosal surfaces few hours after birth. This species remains prevalent in the oral cavity and sub‐ prevalent in the digestive tract and may therefore contribute to the establishment of immune homeostasis and the regulation of host inflammatory responses. S. salivarius was shown to influence the inflammatory response triggered by periodontopathogens and attenuate NF‐κB activation in bronchial epithelial cells, suggesting a role of this bacterium in inflammation. We have recently reported properties of S. salivarius, which significantly reduced the activation of NF‐κB and IL‐8 secretion in several lines of intestinal epithelial and immune cells by the release of a low‐molecular‐ weight soluble factor {Kaci et al., 2011}. The active compound that harbored inhibitory effect on TNF‐ α induced NF‐κB activation in HT29 cells, has been partially purified in hydrophobic
