Abstract
Disturbances in intestinal immune homeostasis predispose susceptible individuals to type 1 diabetes (T1D). G-protein-coupled receptor 41 (GPR41) is a receptor for short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) mainly produced by gut microbiota, which plays key roles in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. In this study, we investigated the role of GPR41 in the progression of T1D. In non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, we found that aberrant reduction of GPR41 expression in the pancreas and colons was associated with the development of T1D. GPR41-deficient (Gpr41-/-) mice displayed significantly exacerbated streptozotocin (STZ)-induced T1D compared to wild-type mice. Furthermore, Gpr41-/- mice showed enhanced gut immune dysregulation and increased migration of gut-primed IFN-γ+ T cells to the pancreas. In bone marrow-derived dendritic cells from Gpr41-/- mice, the expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS) was significantly inhibited, while the phosphorylation of STAT3 was significantly increased, thus promoting dendritic cell (DC) maturation. Furthermore, adoptive transfer of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDC) from Gpr41-/- mice accelerated T1D in irradiated NOD mice. We conclude that GPR41 is essential for maintaining intestinal and pancreatic immune homeostasis and acts as a negative regulator of DC maturation in T1D. GPR41 may be a potential therapeutic target for T1D.

Abstract
Damaged mitochondria accumulation in diabetes is one of the main features that contribute to increased incidence of cognitive impairment by inducing apoptosis. Butyrate is a major metabolite produced by microbiota that has neuroprotective effects by regulating mitochondrial function. However, detailed mechanisms underlying how butyrate can regulate neuronal mitophagy remain unclear. Here, we examined the regulatory effects of sodium butyrate (NaB) on high glucose-induced mitophagy dysregulation, neuronal apoptosis, and cognitive impairment and its underlying mechanisms in human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons, SH-SY5Ys, and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice. In our results, diabetic mice showed gut-microbiota dysbiosis, especially a decreased number of butyrate-producing bacteria and reduced NaB plasma concentration. NaB ameliorated high glucose-induced neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction by recovering PRKN/Parkin-mediated mitophagy. High glucose-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and -inhibited PRKAA/AMPKα stimulated the RELA/p65-HDAC8 complex, which downregulated PRKN protein expression by binding to the PRKN promoter region. NaB restored PRKN expression by blocking RELA nuclear translocation and directly inhibiting HDAC8 in the nucleus. In addition, HDAC8 overexpression inhibited the positive effect of NaB on high glucose-induced mitophagy dysfunction and neuronal apoptosis. Oral administration of NaB improved cognitive impairment in diabetic mice by restoring mitophagy in the hippocampus. Taken together, NaB ameliorates neuronal mitophagy through PRKN restoration by inhibiting RELA-HDAC8 complexes, suggesting that NaB is an important substance for protecting neuronal apoptosis in diabetes-associated cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Recent studies have highlighted the influence of factors such as sex and sex-linked hormones on microbiome composition, raising concerns about the generalizability of findings. Here, we explore whether gut geography, specifically the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract (GI), contributes to sex-linked microbiome differences in mice. We collected microbial samples throughout the length of the GI from male and female C57B6/J mice at 6- and 8-weeks old, and conducted 16S rRNA sequencing. Our findings revealed significant sex-related differences, with Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 more abundant in the male colon, while females exhibited higher levels of Dubosiella newyorkensis across all organs at 6 weeks. We also observed decreased Shannon alpha diversity in the small intestine compared to the lower GI, and this diversity decreased further at 8 weeks. Interestingly, our results suggest that age mitigates sex-related, but not gut geography-related differences in beta diversity, with implications for experimental outcomes and treatment strategies. This study underscores the dynamic nature of microbial diversity, influenced by sex, age, and GI localization, emphasizing the need for a more comprehensive understanding of microbiome dynamics in experimental research and clinical interventions.

Abstract
Antibiotic-mediated perturbation of the gut microbiome is associated with numerous infectious and autoimmune diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Yet, as the gut microbiome is a complex ecological network of microorganisms, the effects of antibiotics can be highly variable. With the advent of multi-omic approaches for systems-level profiling of microbial communities, we are beginning to identify microbiome-intrinsic and microbiome-extrinsic factors that affect microbiome dynamics during antibiotic exposure and subsequent recovery. In this Review, we discuss factors that influence restructuring of the gut microbiome on antibiotic exposure. We present an overview of the currently complex picture of treatment-induced changes to the microbial community and highlight essential considerations for future investigations of antibiotic-specific outcomes. Finally, we provide a synopsis of available strategies to minimize antibiotic-induced damage or to restore the pretreatment architectures of the gut microbial community.

Abstract
Gut dysbiosis causes damage to the intestinal barrier and is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We tested the potential protective effects of probiotic BL21 and LRa05 on gut microbiota in type 2 diabetes mellitus mice and determined whether these effects were related to the modulation of gut microbiota.Thirty specific pathogen-free C57BL/6J mice were randomly allocated to three groups-the (CTL) control group, HFD/STZ model (T2DM) group, and HFD/STZ-probiotic intervention (PRO) group-and intragastrically administered strains BL21 and LRa05 for 11 weeks. The administration of strains BL21 and LRa05 significantly regulated blood glucose levels, accompanied by ameliorated oxidative stress in mice. The BL21/LRa05-treated mice were protected from liver, cecal, and colon damage. Microbiota analysis showed that the cecal and fecal microbiota of the mice presented significantly different spatial distributions from one another. Principal coordinate analysis results indicated that both T2DM and the BL21/LRa05 intervention had significant effects on the cecal contents and fecal microbiota structure. In terms of the fecal microbiota, an abundance of Akkermansia and Anaeroplasma was noted in the PRO group. In terms of the cecal content microbiota, enrichment of Akkermansia, Desulfovibrio, Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, and Limosilactobacillus was noted in the PRO group. The probiotics BL21 and LRa05 prevent or ameliorate T2DM by regulating the intestinal flora and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. Our results suggest that BL21 and LRa05 colonize in the cecum. Thus, BL21/LRa05 combined with probiotics having a strong ability to colonize in the colon may achieve better therapeutic effects in T2DM. Our study illustrated the feasibility and benefits of the combined use of probiotics and implied the importance of intervening at multiple intestinal sites in T2DM mice.

Abstract
Antibiotic-induced gut dysbiosis (AID) is a frequent and serious side effect of antibiotic use and mitigating this dysbiosis is a critical therapeutic target. We propose that the host diet can modulate the chemical environment of the gut resulting in changes to the structure and function of the microbiome during antibiotic treatment. Gut dysbiosis is typically characterized by increases in aerobic respiratory bacterial metabolism, redox potential, and abundance of Proteobacteria. In this study, we explore dietary fiber supplements as potential modulators of the chemical environment in the gut to reduce this pattern of dysbiosis. Using defined-diets and whole-genome sequencing of female murine microbiomes during diet modulation and antibiotic treatment, we find that fiber prebiotics significantly reduced the impact of antibiotic treatment on microbiome composition and function. We observe reduced abundance of aerobic bacteria as well as metabolic pathways associated with oxidative metabolism. These metatranscriptomic results are corroborated by chemical measurements of eH and pH suggesting that fiber dampens the dysbiotic effects of antibiotics. This work indicates that fiber may act as a potential therapeutic for AID by modulating bacterial metabolism in the gut to prevent an increase in redox potential and protect commensal microbes during antibiotic treatment.

Abstract
Antibiotic-induced gut microbiome dysbiosis (AID) is known to be influenced by host dietary composition. However, how and when diet modulates gut dysbiosis remains poorly characterized. Thus, here, we utilize a multi-omics approach to characterize how a diet supplemented with oats, a rich source of microbiota-accessible carbohydrates, or dextrose impacts amoxicillin-induced changes to gut microbiome structure and transcriptional activity. We demonstrate that oat administration during amoxicillin challenge provides greater protection from AID than the always oats or recovery oats diet groups. In particular, the group in which oats were provided at the time of antibiotic exposure induced the greatest protection against AID while the other oat diets saw greater effects after amoxicillin challenge. The oat diets likewise reduced amoxicillin-driven elimination of Firmicutes compared to the dextrose diet. Functionally, gut communities fed dextrose were carbohydrate starved and favored respiratory metabolism and consequent metabolic stress management while oat-fed communities shifted their transcriptomic profile and emphasized antibiotic stress management. The metabolic trends were exemplified when assessing transcriptional activity of the following two common gut commensal bacteria: Akkermansia muciniphila and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. These findings demonstrate that while host diet is important in shaping how antibiotics effect the gut microbiome composition and function, diet timing may play an even greater role in dietary intervention-based therapeutics. IMPORTANCE We utilize a multi-omics approach to demonstrate that diets supplemented with oats, a rich source of microbiota-accessible carbohydrates, are able to confer protection against antibiotic-induced dysbiosis (AID). Our findings affirm that not only is host diet important in shaping antibiotics effects on gut microbiome composition and function but also that the timing of these diets may play an even greater role in managing AID. This work provides a nuanced perspective on dietary intervention against AID and may be informative on preventing AID during routine antibiotic treatment.

Abstract
Many ecosystems have been shown to retain a memory of past conditions, which in turn affects how they respond to future stimuli. In microbial ecosystems, community disturbance has been associated with lasting impacts on microbiome structure. However, whether microbial communities alter their response to repeated stimulus remains incompletely understood. Using the human gut microbiome as a model, we show that bacterial communities retain an "ecological memory" of past carbohydrate exposures. Memory of the prebiotic inulin was encoded within a day of supplementation among a cohort of human study participants. Using in vitro gut microbial models, we demonstrated that the strength of ecological memory scales with nutrient dose and persists for days. We found evidence that memory is seeded by transcriptional changes among primary degraders of inulin within hours of nutrient exposure, and that subsequent changes in the activity and abundance of these taxa are sufficient to enhance overall community nutrient metabolism. We also observed that ecological memory of one carbohydrate species impacts microbiome response to other carbohydrates, and that an individual's habitual exposure to dietary fiber was associated with their gut microbiome's efficiency at digesting inulin. Together, these findings suggest that the human gut microbiome's metabolic potential reflects dietary exposures over preceding days and changes within hours of exposure to a novel nutrient. The dynamics of this ecological memory also highlight the potential for intra-individual microbiome variation to affect the design and interpretation of interventions involving the gut microbiome.

Abstract
It is well recognized that the microbiome plays key roles in human health, and that damage to this system by, for example, antibiotic administration has detrimental effects. With this, there is collective recognition that off-target antibiotic susceptibility within the microbiome is a particularly troublesome side effect that has serious impacts on host well-being. Thus, a pressing area of research is the characterization of antibiotic susceptibility determinants within the microbiome, as understanding these mechanisms may inform the development of microbiome-protective therapeutic strategies. In particular, metabolic environment is known to play a key role in the different responses of this microbial community to antibiotics. Here, we explore the role of host dysglycemia on ciprofloxacin susceptibility in the murine cecum. We used a combination of 16S rRNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomics to characterize changes in both microbiome taxonomy and environment. We found that dysglycemia minimally impacted ciprofloxacin-associated changes in microbiome structure. However, from a metabolic perspective, host hyperglycemia was associated with significant changes in respiration, central carbon metabolism, and nucleotide synthesis-related metabolites. Together, these data suggest that host glycemia may influence microbiome function during antibiotic challenge.
