Zebrafish gut microbiota composition in response to tick saliva biomolecules correlates with allergic reactions to mammalian meat consumption. Microbiol Res 2024; 285:127786. [PMID: 38820703 DOI: 10.1016/j.micres.2024.127786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/02/2024]
Abstract
The α-Gal syndrome (AGS) is an IgE-mediated tick borne-allergy that results in delayed anaphylaxis to the consumption of mammalian meat and products containing α-Gal. Considering that α-Gal-containing microbiota modulates natural antibody production to this glycan, this study aimed to evaluate the influence on tick salivary compounds on the gut microbiota composition in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) animal model. Sequencing of 16 S rDNA was performed in a total of 75 zebrafish intestine samples, representing different treatment groups: PBS control, Ixodes ricinus tick saliva, tick saliva non-protein fraction (NPF), tick saliva protein fraction (PF), and tick saliva protein fractions 1-5 with NPF (F1-5). The results revealed that treatment with tick saliva and different tick salivary fractions, combined with α-Gal-positive dog food feeding, resulted in specific variations in zebrafish gut microbiota composition at various taxonomic levels and affected commensal microbial alpha and beta diversities. Metagenomics results were corroborated by qPCR, supporting the overrepresentation of phylum Firmicutes in the tick saliva group, phylum Fusobacteriota in group F1, and phylum Cyanobacteria in F2 and F5 compared to the PBS-control. qPCRs results at genus level sustained significant enrichment of Plesiomonas spp. in groups F3 and F5, Rhizobium spp. in NPF and F4, and Cloacibacterium spp. dominance in the PBS control group. This study provides new results on the role of gut microbiota in allergic reactions to tick saliva components using a zebrafish model of AGS. Overall, gut microbiota composition in response to tick saliva biomolecules may be associated with allergic reactions to mammalian meat consumption in AGS.

Abstract
The microaerobic process on swine wastewater (SWW) treatment was investigated, evaluating its effect on organic matter hydrolysis and removal, biogas production, operational stability, and microbial community structure. UASB reactors operating under higher organic loading rates (OLRs) and lower hydraulic retention times (HRTs) than those found in the SWW treatment literature were also assessed. The microaerophilic reactor R2 presented a higher total and particulate organic matter removals and operational stability than the anaerobic reactor R1, reaching CODP removals of 79.4 ± 4.6%. In the specific methanogenic activity (SMA) tests, the microaerobic sludge (R2) showed hydrolytic and acetogenic/methanogenic activity superior to inoculum and anaerobic sludge (R1). The microbiological evaluation of R2 revealed the high presence of hydrolytic microorganisms, therefore justifying the higher hydrolytic activity found in the SMA tests and higher particulate organic matter removal found in the microaerobic reactor.

Abstract
Background Fish gut microbial assemblages play a crucial role in the growth rate, metabolism, and immunity of the host. We hypothesized that the gut microbiota of rainbow trout was correlated with breeding program based genetic selection for muscle yield. To test this hypothesis, fecal samples from 19 fish representing an F2 high-muscle genetic line (ARS-FY-H) and 20 fish representing an F1 low-muscle yield genetic line (ARS-FY-L) were chosen for microbiota profiling using the 16S rRNA gene. Significant differences in microbial assemblages between these two genetic lines might represent the effect of host genetic selection in structuring the gut microbiota of the host. Results Tukey’s transformed inverse Simpson indices indicated that high muscle yield genetic line (ARS-FY-H) samples have higher microbial diversity compared to those of the low muscle yield genetic line (ARS-FY-L) (LMM, χ2(1) =14.11, p < 0.05). The fecal samples showed statistically distinct structure in microbial assemblages between the genetic lines (F1,36 = 4.7, p < 0.05, R2 = 11.9%). Functional profiling of bacterial operational taxonomic units predicted characteristic functional capabilities of the microbial communities in the high (ARS-FY-H) and low (ARS-FY-L) muscle yield genetic line samples. Conclusion The significant differences of the microbial assemblages between high (ARS-FY-H) and low (ARS-FY-L) muscle yield genetic lines indicate a possible effect of genetic selection on the microbial diversity of the host. The functional composition of taxa demonstrates a correlation between bacteria and improving the muscle accretion in the host, probably, by producing various metabolites and enzymes that might aid in digestion. Further research is required to elucidate the mechanisms involved in shaping the microbial community through host genetic selection.

Abstract
Planorbidae snails are the intermediate host for the trematode parasite of the Schistosoma genus, which is responsible for schistosomiasis, a disease that affects both humans and cattle. The microbiota for Schistosoma has already been described as having an effect on host/parasite interactions, specifically through immunological interactions. Here, we sought to characterize the microbiota composition of seven Planorbidae species and strains. Individual snail microbiota was determined using 16S ribosomal DNA amplicon sequencing. The bacterial composition was highly specific to the host strain with limited interindividual variation. In addition, it displayed complete congruence with host phylogeny, revealing a phylosymbiosis pattern. These results were confirmed in a common garden, suggesting that the host highly constrains microbial composition. This study presents the first comparison of bacterial communities between several intermediate snail hosts of Schistosoma parasites, paving the way for further studies on the understanding of this tripartite interaction.

Abstract
Background Gut microbes can contribute to their hosts in food digestion, nutrient absorption, and inhibiting the growth of pathogens. However, only limited studies have focused on the gut microbiota of freshwater snails. Pomacea canaliculata is considered one of the worst invasive alien species in the world. Elucidating the diversity and composition of the microbiota in the gut of P. canaliculata snails may be helpful for better understanding the widespread invasion of this snail species. In this study, the buccal masses, stomachs, and intestines were isolated from seven P. canaliculata snails. The diversity and composition of the microbiota in the three gut sections were then investigated based on high-throughput Illumina sequencing targeting the V3-V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene. Results The diversity of the microbiota was highest in the intestine but lowest in the buccal mass. A total of 29 phyla and 111 genera of bacteria were identified in all of the samples. In general, Ochrobactrum, a genus of putative cellulose-degrading bacteria, was the most abundant (overall relative abundance: 13.6%), followed by Sediminibacterium (9.7%), Desulfovibrio (7.8%), an unclassified genus in the family Aeromonadaceae (5.4%), and Cloacibacterium (5.4%). The composition of the microbiota was diverse among the different gut sections. Ochrobactrum (relative abundance: 23.15% ± 7.92%) and Sediminibacterium (16.95 ± 5.70%) were most abundant in the stomach, an unclassified genus in the family Porphyromonadaceae (14.28 ± 7.29%) and Leptotrichia (8.70 ± 4.46%) were highest in the buccal mass, and two genera in the families Aeromonadaceae (7.55 ± 4.53%) and Mollicutes (13.47 ± 13.03%) were highest in the intestine. Conclusions The diversity and composition of the microbiome vary among different gut sections of P. canaliculata snails. Putative cellulose-degrading bacteria are enriched in the gut of P. canaliculata.

Zheng W, Wen X. How exogenous influent communities and environmental conditions affect activated sludge communities in the membrane bioreactor of a wastewater treatment plant. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2019; 692:622-630. [PMID: 31539970 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.07.310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2019] [Revised: 07/19/2019] [Accepted: 07/19/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
In this study, the residual population of influent and activated sludge (AS) communities was defined based on their occurrence frequency and relative abundance through long-term and fine-scale sampling from the membrane bioreactor (MBR) of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). There were 481 OTUs defined as the residual OTUs, which taken up 67.90 ± 9.36% of relative abundance in the influent community. Besides, 6.76 ± 5.71% of the residual population migrated to and remained in the AS community. Additionally, the residual populations were more likely to be anaerobes and microaerobes. As the most predominant genus from residual community, the relative abundance of Arcobacter was reduced from 15.78 ± 3.58% in the influent to 1.15 ± 1.35% in the AS. The residues that migrated from the influent have increased the richness and evenness of AS community, as well as the dissimilarities among samples over long-term. The rank-abundance distribution showed identical pattern for the residual species between influent and AS. By adopting the analysis of neutral model, 2766 out of 7491 shared OTUs between influent and AS communities were identified as neutral OTUs, which respectively made up 53.9% and 41.8% of the total relative abundance of influent and AS communities. These indicated that the AS community was to some extent, but not entirely assembled by neutral process. For the residual community in the AS, dissolved oxygen (DO) was positively associated with several aerobic genera, meanwhile influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) had positive relationship with genus Pseudomonas. Last but most importantly, the influent community could not inoculate the nitrifiers in the AS, but instead, was able to inoculate the denitrifiers; as well as enhance the biodiversity and the ability of resisting external disturbance for the AS community in MBR.

Abstract
Strain KYPW7T, isolated from the Funglin Stream in Taiwan, was characterized using a polyphasic taxonomy approach. Cells of strain KYPW7T were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore forming, non-motile rods and formed white colonies. Growth occurred at 15-30 °C (optimum 25 °C), at pH 6-8 (optimum pH 6.5) and with 0-1% NaCl (optimum 0%). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA and coding sequences of 92 protein clusters showed that strain KYPW7T represents a novel genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain KYPW7T was related to the species of the genera Chryseobacterium (91.8-96.0% sequence similarity), Bergeyella (95.1-95.8%), Cloacibacterium (94.5-95.7%), Daejeonia (95.6%) and Riemerella (94.0-95.0%). Strain KYPW7T showed less than 72% average nucleotide identity and less than 24% digital DNA-DNA hybridization identity compared to the type strains of related genera within the family Flavobacteriaceae. The predominant fatty acids were iso-C15:0 and iso-C17:0 3-OH. The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-6 and the DNA G + C content was 36.8 mol%. The polar lipids had phosphatidylethanolamine, three uncharacterized aminophospholipids and an uncharacterized phospholipid. The polyamines contained homospermidine, putrescine and spermidine. On the basis of the genotypic and phenotypic data, strain KYPW7T represents a novel species of a new genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Amniculibacterium aquaticum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KYPW7T (= BCRC 81123T = LMG 30598T = KCTC 62512T).

Abstract
A novel strain, designated strain W113T, was isolated from the gut of an abalone, Haliotis discus hannai, which was collected from the northern coast of Jeju in Korea. The isolate was a Gram-staining-negative, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium producing yellow-to-orange carotenoid-type pigments. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the isolate belonged to the genus
Actibacter
in the family
Flavobacteriaceae
and it shared the highest sequence similarity with the type strain of
Actibacter sediminis
(98.8 % similarity). Optimal growth occurred at 25 °C, at pH 7 and with 2 % (w/v) NaCl. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C15 : 1 G. Menaquinone-6 was the main respiratory quinone. The polar lipids of the isolate were phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified amino lipids, and three unidentified lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 42.6 mol% and DNA–DNA hybridization values indicated that the strain shared <18 % genomic relatedness with the most closely related species. The results of the phylogenetic, phenotypic and genotypic analyses indicated that strain W113T represents a novel species in the genus
Actibacter
, for which the name Actibacter haliotis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is W113T ( = KACC 17209T = JCM 18868T).

Abstract
We compared the gut prokaryotic communities in wild, organically-, and conventionally reared sea bream (Sparus aurata) individuals. Gut microbial communities were identified using tag pyrosequencing of the 16S rRNA genes. There were distinct prokaryotic communities in the three different fish nutritional treatments, with the bacteria dominating over the Archaea. Most of the Bacteria belonged to the Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. The number of bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs) was reduced from the wild to the conventionally reared fish, implying a response of the gut microorganisms to the supplied food and possibly alterations in food assimilation. The dominant bacterial OTU in all examined fish was closely related to the genus Diaphorobacter. This is the first time that a member of the β-Proteobacteria, which dominate in freshwaters, are so important in a marine fish gut. In total the majority of the few Archaea OTUs found, were related to methane metabolism. The inferred physiological roles of the dominant prokaryotes are related to the metabolism of carbohydrates and nitrogenous compounds. This study showed the responsive feature of the sea bream gut prokaryotic communities to their diets and also the differences of the conventional in comparison to the organic and wild sea bream gut microbiota.
