Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common acute abdomen disease characterized by the pathological activation of digestive enzymes and the self-digestion of pancreatic acinar cells. Secondary infection and sepsis are independent prognosticators for AP progression and increased mortality. Accumulating anatomical and epidemiological evidence suggests that the dysbiosis of gut microbiota affects the etiology and severity of AP through intestinal barrier disruption, local or systemic inflammatory response, bacterial translocation, and the regulatory role of microbial metabolites in AP patients and animal models. Recent studies discussing the interactions between gut microbiota and the pancreas have opened new scopes for AP, and new therapeutic interventions that target the bacteria community have received substantial attention. This review concentrates on the alterations of gut microbiota and its roles in modulating gut-pancreas axis in AP. The potential therapies of targeting microbes as well as the major challenges of applying those interventions are explored. We expect to understand the roles of microbes in AP diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Antibiotics have transformed medicine, saving millions of lives since they were first used to treat a bacterial infection. However, antibiotics administered to target a specific pathogen can also cause collateral damage to the patient's resident microbial population. These drugs can suppress the growth of commensal species which provide protection against colonization by foreign pathogens, leading to an increased risk of subsequent infection. At the same time, a patient's microbiota can harbour potential pathogens and, hence, be a source of infection. Antibiotic-induced selection pressure can cause overgrowth of resistant pathogens pre-existing in the patient's microbiota, leading to hard-to-treat superinfections. In this Review, we explore our current understanding of how antibiotic therapy can facilitate subsequent infections due to both loss of colonization resistance and overgrowth of resistant microorganisms, and how these processes are often interlinked. We discuss both well-known and currently overlooked examples of antibiotic-associated infections at various body sites from various pathogens. Finally, we describe ongoing and new strategies to overcome the collateral damage caused by antibiotics and to limit the risk of antibiotic-associated infections.

Abstract
Discerning the effect of pharmacological exposures on intestinal bacterial communities in cancer patients is challenging. Here, we deconvoluted the relationship between drug exposures and changes in microbial composition by developing and applying a new computational method, PARADIGM (parameters associated with dynamics of gut microbiota), to a large set of longitudinal fecal microbiome profiles with detailed medication-administration records from patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. We observed that several non-antibiotic drugs, including laxatives, antiemetics, and opioids, are associated with increased Enterococcus relative abundance and decreased alpha diversity. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing further demonstrated subspecies competition, leading to increased dominant-strain genetic convergence during allo-HCT that is significantly associated with antibiotic exposures. We integrated drug-microbiome associations to predict clinical outcomes in two validation cohorts on the basis of drug exposures alone, suggesting that this approach can generate biologically and clinically relevant insights into how pharmacological exposures can perturb or preserve microbiota composition. The application of a computational method called PARADIGM to a large dataset of cancer patients' longitudinal fecal specimens and detailed daily medication records reveals associations between drug exposures and the intestinal microbiota that recapitulate in vitro findings and are also predictive of clinical outcomes.

Targeted suppression of human IBD-associated gut microbiota commensals by phage consortia for treatment of intestinal inflammation. Cell 2022; 185:2879-2898.e24. [PMID: 35931020 DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2022.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 170] [Impact Index Per Article: 85.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Human gut commensals are increasingly suggested to impact non-communicable diseases, such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), yet their targeted suppression remains a daunting unmet challenge. In four geographically distinct IBD cohorts (n = 537), we identify a clade of Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) strains, featuring a unique antibiotics resistance and mobilome signature, to be strongly associated with disease exacerbation and severity. Transfer of clinical IBD-associated Kp strains into colitis-prone, germ-free, and colonized mice enhances intestinal inflammation. Stepwise generation of a lytic five-phage combination, targeting sensitive and resistant IBD-associated Kp clade members through distinct mechanisms, enables effective Kp suppression in colitis-prone mice, driving an attenuated inflammation and disease severity. Proof-of-concept assessment of Kp-targeting phages in an artificial human gut and in healthy volunteers demonstrates gastric acid-dependent phage resilience, safety, and viability in the lower gut. Collectively, we demonstrate the feasibility of orally administered combination phage therapy in avoiding resistance, while effectively inhibiting non-communicable disease-contributing pathobionts.

Abstract
Background Compared to younger people, older people have a higher risk and poorer prognosis of acute pancreatitis, but the effect of gut microbiota on acute pancreatitis is still unknown. We aim to investigate the effect of aging gut microbiota on acute pancreatitis and explore the potential mechanism of this phenomenon. Methods Eighteen fecal samples from healthy adult participants, including nine older and nine younger adults were collected. C57BL/6 mice were treated with antibiotics for fecal microbiota transplantation from older and younger participants. Acute pancreatitis was induced by cerulein and lipopolysaccharide in these mice. The effect of the aged gut microbiota was further tested via antibiotic treatment before or after acute pancreatitis induction. Results The gut microbiota of older and younger adults differed greatly. Aged gut microbiota exacerbated acute pancreatitis during both the early and recovery stages. At the same time, the mRNA expression of multiple antimicrobial peptides in the pancreas and ileum declined in the older group. Antibiotic treatment before acute pancreatitis could remove the effect of aging gut microbiota, but antibiotic treatment after acute pancreatitis could not. Conclusion Aging can affect acute pancreatitis through gut microbiota which characterizes the deletion of multiple types of non-dominant species. This change in gut microbiota may potentially regulate antimicrobial peptides in the early and recovery stages. The level of antimicrobial peptides has negative correlations with a more severe phenotype.

Gut Microbiota-Derived Diaminopimelic Acid Promotes the NOD1/RIP2 Signaling Pathway and Plays a Key Role in the Progression of Severe Acute Pancreatitis. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2022; 12:838340. [PMID: 35811665 PMCID: PMC9257083 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2022.838340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Impaired intestinal barrier function and gut microbiota dysbiosis are believed to be related to exacerbation of acute pancreatitis (AP). As a bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan component, diaminopimelic acid (DAP) is a specific ligand of NOD1 that regulates the NOD1/RIP2/NF-kB signaling pathway. Here, we investigated the role of DAP in the crosstalk between the gut microbiota and pancreas during the occurrence of AP. Upregulation of NOD1/RIP2/NF-kB and elevated serum DAP levels were found in severe AP (SAP) model rats. The accumulation of DAP in SAP patients corroborated its ability to serve as an indicator of disease severity. Subsequently, SAP rats were treated with oral administration of the traditional Chinese medicine Qingyi Keli (QYKL) as well as neomycin, which can widely eliminate DAP-containing bacteria. Both QYKL and neomycin intervention ameliorated intestinal and pancreatic damage and systemic inflammation in SAP rats. Through 16S rDNA sequencing, we found that QYKL could rehabilitate the gut microbiota structure and selectively inhibit the overgrowth of enteric bacteria, such as Helicobacter and Lactobacillus, in SAP rats without affecting some protective strains, including Romboutsia and Allobaculum. Interestingly, we demonstrated that the decrease in serum DAP was accompanied by suppression of the NOD1/RIP2/NF-kB signaling pathway in both the intestine and pancreas of the two intervention groups. Taken together, these results suggested that the gut microbiota-DAP-NOD1/RIP2 signaling pathway might play a critical role in the progression of AP and that SAP could be alleviated via intervention in the signaling pathway. Our work provides new potential early warning indicators of SAP and targets for intervention.

Abstract
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), one of the most serious abdominal emergencies in general surgery, is characterized by acute and rapid onset as well as high mortality, which often leads to multiple organ failure (MOF). Acute lung injury (ALI), the earliest accompanied organ dysfunction, is the most common cause of death in patients following the SAP onset. The exact pathogenesis of ALI during SAP, however, remains unclear. In recent years, advances in the microbiota-gut-lung axis have led to a better understanding of SAP-associated lung injury (PALI). In addition, the bidirectional communications between intestinal microbes and the lung are becoming more apparent. This paper aims to review the mechanisms of an imbalanced intestinal microbiota contributing to the development of PALI, which is mediated by the disruption of physical, chemical, and immune barriers in the intestine, promotes bacterial translocation, and results in the activation of abnormal immune responses in severe pancreatitis. The pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) mediated immunol mechanisms in the occurrence of PALI via binding with pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) through the microbiota-gut-lung axis are focused in this study. Moreover, the potential therapeutic strategies for alleviating PALI by regulating the composition or the function of the intestinal microbiota are discussed in this review. The aim of this study is to provide new ideas and therapeutic tools for PALI patients.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is followed by structural and functional changes in the intestine, resulting from microbiome dysbiosis. However, it remains unclear how gut microbiome changes within the initial 72h of onset. In this study, severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), mild acute pancreatitis (MAP), and sham operation (SO) were replicated in rat models. 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing was used to explore the gut bacteria community. The predicted Cluster of Orthologous Genes (COG) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) metabolic pathways were associated with the 16S rRNA profiles. Compared to the SO group, significant community succession was found during the initial 72h in AP group. At 72 h after AP induction, the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes (F/B) ratios were significantly different, with the highest ratio in SAP group and the lowest in MAP group. Lactobacillus was the most abundant genus, but it nearly disappeared in SAP rats at 72 h. Clostridiaceae 1 and Clostridium sensu stricto 1 were significantly enriched in AP group. Bacteroidales S24-7 and Bacteroidales S24-7 group norank were enriched in MAP group, while Collinsella, Morganella, and Blautia were enriched in SAP group. Lactobacillus was significantly correlated with nine COGs. Nine COGs showed significant differences between AP group and SO group. Moreover, four COGs showed significant differences between the MAP and SAP groups. KEGG Level_3 pathways propanoate metabolism (Ko00640) in AP group was significantly higher than that in SO group. The aspartate‒ammonia ligase and four KEGG orthology terms of the AP group were lower than that in the SO group, respectively. All these results suggest that the intestinal bacterial community structure and function was changed during the initial 72h in AP rats. The intestinal F/B ratio and the relative abundance of Lactobacillus could be potential markers for early diagnosis of MAP and SAP. The genus Clostridium sensu stricto 1 was the most enriched genus in AP, and may be an important marker for AP.

Abstract
The pancreas contains exocrine glands, which release enzymes (e.g., amylase, trypsin, and lipase) that are important for digestion and islets, which produce hormones. Digestive enzymes and hormones are secreted from the pancreas into the duodenum and bloodstream, respectively. Growing evidence suggests that the roles of the pancreas extend to not only the secretion of digestive enzymes and hormones but also to the regulation of intestinal homeostasis and inflammation (e.g., mucosal defense to pathogens and pathobionts). Organ crosstalk between the pancreas and intestine is linked to a range of physiological, immunological, and pathological activities, such as the regulation of the gut microbiota by the pancreatic proteins and lipids, the retroaction of the gut microbiota on the pancreas, the relationship between inflammatory bowel disease, and pancreatic diseases. We herein discuss the current understanding of the pancreas–intestinal barrier axis and the control of commensal bacteria in intestinal inflammation.

Abstract
Background Infection in patients with acute pancreatitis, especially severe acute pancreatitis patients, is a common and important phenomenon, and the distributions and drug resistance profiles of bacteria causing biliary infection and related risk factors are dynamic. We conducted this study to explore the characteristics of and risk factors for bacterial infection in the biliary tract to understand antimicrobial susceptibility, promote the rational use of antibiotics, control multidrug-resistant bacterial infections and provide guidance for the treatment of acute pancreatitis caused by drug-resistant bacteria. Methods The distribution of 132 strains of biliary pathogenic bacteria in patients with acute pancreatitis from January 2016 to December 2020 were analyzed. We assessed drug resistance in the dominant Gram-negative bacteria and studied the drug resistance profiles of multidrug-resistant bacteria by classifying Enterobacteriaceae and nonfermentative bacteria. We then retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and risk factors associated with 72 strains of Gram-negative bacilli, which were divided into multidrug-resistant bacteria (50 cases) and non-multidrug-resistant bacteria (22 cases). Results The main bacteria were Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli had a 66.67% detection rate. Acinetobacter baumannii had more than 50.00% drug resistance to carbapenems, ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae had 100.00% drug resistance, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa had 66.67% resistance to carbapenems. Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that the administration of third- or fourth-generation cephalosporins was an independent risk factor for Gram-negative multidrug-resistant biliary bacterial infection in acute pancreatitis patients. Conclusion Drug resistance among biliary pathogens in acute pancreatitis patients remains high; therefore, rational antimicrobial drug use and control measures should be carried out considering associated risk factors to improve diagnosis and treatment quality in acute pancreatitis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infectious complications following experimental pancreatitis involve major disruptions in the gut microbiota. The aim of this study was to characterize this disruption by examining the spatioregional distribution in microbial community structure and function following experimental pancreatitis associated with pancreatic infection. METHODS Mice were subjected to infusion of the pancreatic duct with either taurocholate to induce necrotizing pancreatitis or normal saline (control group). The spatial (lumen versus mucosa) and regional composition and function of the microbiota from the duodenum, ileum, caecum, colon, pancreas and blood were evaluated using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. RESULTS Mice that developed necrotizing pancreatitis demonstrated a decrease in microbial richness and significantly altered microbiota in distal parts of the gastrointestinal tract, compared with controls. Among the most differentially increased taxa were the mucus-degrading Akkermansia muciniphila, and there was a decrease of butyrate-producing bacteria following pancreatitis. Application of the SourceTracker tool to the generated metadata indicated that the duodenum was the most probable source of bacteria that subsequently infected pancreatic tissue in this model. The functional prediction annotation using pathway analyses indicated a diminished capacity of the caecal microbiota to metabolize carbohydrate, and fatty and amino acids. DISCUSSION The distal gut microbiota was significantly impacted in this model of experimental necrotizing pancreatitis. Data suggest that the duodenal microbiota might also play a role in bacterial translation and secondary infections.

Abstract
Gut microbiome is considered as a crucial regulator of human health. Alteration of gut microbiome has been reported in acute pancreatitis (AP) and probably contributes to the severity of disease. Explore the precise role of gut microbiome in the pathogenesis of AP could offer new strategies to improve the clinical outcomes of AP. This review summarizes the role of gut microbiome in AP, lists possible mechanisms associated with it and offers an overview of current treatments based on gut microbiome.

Abstract
Animals live in symbiosis with numerous microbe species. While some can protect hosts from infection and benefit host health, components of the microbiota or changes to the microbial landscape have the potential to facilitate infections and worsen disease severity. Pathogens and pathobionts can exploit microbiota metabolites, or can take advantage of a depletion in host defences and changing conditions within a host, to cause opportunistic infection. The microbiota might also favour a more virulent evolutionary trajectory for invading pathogens. In this review, we consider the ways in which a host microbiota contributes to infectious disease throughout the host's life and potentially across evolutionary time. We further discuss the implications of these negative outcomes for microbiota manipulation and engineering in disease management.

Abstract
Background Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is characterized by the loss of active pancreatic enzymes and a resulting severely reduced food digestion. EPI therapy requires orally applied pancreatic enzyme replacement. The gut microbiome is a known mediator of intestinal diseases and may influence the outcome of EPI and the effects of a pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT). Here, we analyzed the effects of EPI and PERT on the gut microbiome in the model of pancreatic duct ligated minipigs. Results The microbial community composition in pig feces was analyzed by next generation sequencing of 16S rRNA amplicons. The data were evaluated for α- and β-diversity changes and changes at the different Operational Taxonomic Unit (OTU) levels by Shannon–Wiener and inverse Simpson index calculation as well as by Principal Coordinates Analysis based on Bray–Curtis dissimilarity. Microbial α-diversity was reduced after EPI induction and reverted to nearly healthy state after PERT. Analysis of microbial composition and β-diversity showed distinctive clusters of the three study groups and a change towards a composition comparable to healthy animals upon PERT. The relative abundance of possible pathobionts like Escherichia/Shigella, Acinetobacter or Stenotrophomonas was reduced by PERT. Conclusion These data demonstrate that EPI-induced dysbiosis could be reverted by PERT to a nearly healthy state. Elevated α-diversity and the reduction of bacterial overgrowth after PERT promises benefits for EPI patients. Non-invasive microbiome studies may be useful for EPI therapy monitoring and as marker for response to PERT.

Abstract
Background: In 2006, the Surgical Infection Society (SIS) utilized a modified Delphi approach to define 15 specific priority research questions that remained unanswered in the field of surgical infections. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the scientific progress achieved during the ensuing period in answering each of the 15 research questions and to determine if additional research in these fields is warranted. Methods: For each of the questions, a literature search using the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) was performed by the Scientific Studies Committee of the SIS to identify studies that attempted to address each of the defined questions. This literature was analyzed and summarized. The data on each question were evaluated by a surgical infections expert to determine if the question was answered definitively or remains unanswered. Results: All 15 priority research questions were studied in the last 14 years; six questions (40%) were definitively answered and 9 questions (60%) remain unanswered in whole or in part, mainly because of the low quality of the studies available on this topic. Several of the 9 unanswered questions were deemed to remain research priorities in 2020 and warrant further investigation. These included, for example, the role of empiric antimicrobial agents in nosocomial infections, the use of inotropes/vasopressors versus volume loading to raise the mean arterial pressure, and the role of increased antimicrobial dosing and frequency in the obese patient. Conclusions: Several surgical infection-related research questions prioritized in 2006 remain unanswered. Further high-quality research is required to provide a definitive answer to many of these priority knowledge gaps. An updated research agenda by the SIS is warranted at this time to define research priorities for the future.

Abstract
Background Infection is one of the important causes of death in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), but the bacterial spectrum and antibiotic resistance are constantly changing. Making good use of antibiotics and controlling multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections are of vital importance in improving the cure rate of SAP. We conducted a retrospective study in the hope of providing references for antibiotic selection and control of drug-resistant bacteria. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on the data of patients hospitalized in our hospital due to acute pancreatitis (AP) in the past 5 years. General data were classified and statistically analyzed. Subsequently, the bacterial spectrum characteristics and the data related to drug-resistant bacterial infection of 569 AP patients were analyzed. Finally, unconditional logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the risk factors of MDR infection. Results A total of 398 patients were enrolled in this study and the hospitalization data and associated results were analyzed. A total of 461 strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected, including 223 (48.4%) gram-negative bacterial strains, 190 (41.2%) gram-positive bacterial strains and 48 (10.4%) fungal strains. The detection rates of resistance in gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial strains were 48.0% (107/223) and 25.3% (48/190), respectively. There were significant differences between the MDR group and the non-MDR group for the factors of precautionary antibiotic use, kinds of antibiotics used, receipt of carbapenem, tracheal intubation, hemofiltration and number of hospitalization days in the intensive care unit. Unconditional logistic regression revealed 2 risk factors for MDR bacterial infection. Conclusions Our results illustrate that gram-negative bacteria were the most common pathogens in SAP infection, and the proportion of gram-positive bacteria increased notably. The rate of antibiotic resistance was higher than previously reported. Unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that using more types of antibiotics and the number of hospitalization days in the ICU were the risk factors associated with MDR bacterial infection.

Abstract
We have previously reported a novel compound [4‐(2‐acetoxy‐3‐((R)‐3‐(benzylthio)‐1‐methoxy‐1‐oxopropan‐2‐ylamino)‐3‐oxopropyl)‐1,2‐phenylene diacetate (DSC)], derived from danshensu, exhibits cytoprotective activities in vitro. Here, we investigated the effects and underlying mechanisms of DSC on dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)‐induced experimental colitis. We found that DSC treatment afforded significant protection against the development of colitis, evidencing by suppressed inflammatory responses and enhanced barrier integrity. Intriguingly, DSC specifically down‐regulated DSS‐induced colonic NADPH oxidase 4 (Nox4) expression, accompanied by a balanced redox status, suppressed nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) and NLRP3 inflammasome activation and up‐regulated nuclear factor (erythroid‐derived 2)‐like 2 and haeme oxygenase‐1 expression. In vitro study also demonstrated DSC also markedly decreased Nox4 expression and activity associated with inhibiting reactive oxygen species generation, NF‐κB activation and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in bone marrow‐derived macrophages. Either lentiviral Nox4 shRNA‐mediated Nox4 knockdown or Nox4‐specific small‐interfering RNA mimicked effects of DSC by suppressing NLPR3 inflammasome activation to alleviate experimental colitis or inflammatory macrophage response. Collectively, our results provide the first evidence that DSC ameliorates experimental colitis partly through modulating Nox4‐mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation.

Abstract
Controlling infection is crucial in treating patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). The infectious process in AP often predisposes to subsequent sepsis by damaging not only the pancreas, but retroperitoneal tissues as well. Among other AP-associated factors, are the rapidly developing immune imbalance, the poor penetration of antimicrobial agents into necrotic tissue, and the impossibility of a single surgical debridement. Antibacterial and antifungal therapy for patients with infected necrosis and AP-associated extra-pancreatic infections remains a complex and largely unresolved problem, partially due to the high occurrence of multiresistant pathogens. The preventive use of antimicrobial agents has been discussed in the literature; however, the lack of consistent results makes it difficult to develop a unified strategy and clinical guidelines on this specific issue. Recent meta-analyses provide no conclusive evidence that antibacterial prophylaxis reduces the infection rate, mortality, or the need for surgical treatment in patients with necrotizing pancreatitis. We found only two studies indicating the benefits of using carbapenems for prophylactic purposes and one meta-analysis indicating a reduction in mortality under antibiotic treatment started no later than 72 h after the onset of the attack. Selective bowel decontamination is considered as one of the preventive anti-infection measures, although the available data may not be fully reliable. The main indications for antibacterial therapy in patients with AP are confirmed infected necrosis or extra-pancreatic infection, as well as clinical symptoms of suspected infection. Intra-arterial administration or local treatment with antibiotics can increase the efficacy of antibacterial therapy. No randomized studies on antifungal prophylaxis in AP are available; some reports though recommend using such therapy among patients at high risk of invasive candidiasis.

Abstract
Bacterial translocation is a phenomenon in which live bacteria or their products cross the intestinal barrier to other organs or the circulatory system. Gut translocation of bacteria has been reported in both animal models, and clinical trials often accompany acute pancreatitis and are believed to be linked to patient outcome, especially in severe acute pancreatitis. Therefore, the mechanisms of intestinal bacterial translocation in acute pancreatitis have become a topic of interest in recent years. This review discusses Bacterial translocation in acute pancreatitis, identifies possible mechanisms of action, and provides an overview of the methods used to detect Bacterial translocation in acute pancreatitis. This review also highlights areas that require further research.

Abstract
Gut bacterial translocation following impaired gut barrier is a critical
determinant of initiating and aggravating acute pancreatitis (AP). Antibiotic
combination (ABX; vancomycin, neomycin and polymyxin b) is capable of reducing
gut bacteria, but its efficacy in AP prevention and the underlying mechanism
have not been investigated yet. AP was induced in BALB/c mice by caerulein (CAE)
hyperstimulation. We found that ABX supplementation attenuated the severity of
AP as evidenced by reduced pancreatic oedema and myeloperoxidase activity. The
protective effect was also confirmed by improved histological morphology of the
pancreas and decreased pro-inflammatory markers (IL-1β, TNF-α, MCP-1) in
pancreas. ABX administration inhibits the activation of colonic TLR4/NLRP3
inflammasome pathway. Subsequently, down-regulated NLRP3 resulted in decreased
colonic pro-inflammation (IL-1β, IL-6, MCP-1) and enhanced gut physical barrier
as evidenced by up-regulation of tight junction proteins including occludin,
claudin-1 and ZO-1, as well as improved histological morphology of the colon.
Together, combinatory ABX therapy inhibited the translocation of gut bacteria to
pancreas and its amplification effects on pancreatic inflammation by inhibiting
the pancreatic NLRP3 pathway, and inhibiting intestinal-pancreatic inflammatory
responses. The current study provides the basis for potential clinical
application of ABX in AP.

Abstract
The pancreas controls metabolism through endocrine and exocrine functions. Pancreatic diseases comprise a spectrum of mild to life-threatening conditions, including acute and chronic pancreatitis, diabetes, and pancreatic cancer, which affect endocrine and exocrine pancreatic function and impose a substantial disease burden on individuals. Increasing experimental evidence demonstrates that the intestinal microbiota has an important impact on pancreatic function and diseases. This influence may be conferred by bacterial metabolites, such as short-chain fatty acids, or the modulation of immune responses. In turn, pancreatic factors, such as the excretion of antimicrobials, might have a substantial impact on the composition and functional properties of the gut microbiota. Here, we summarize experimental and clinical approaches used to untie the intricate pancreas–microbiota cross talk. Future advances will allow clinicians to manipulate the intestinal microbiota and guide patient management in pancreatic diseases.

Abstract
Humans and other mammalian hosts have evolved mechanisms to control the bacteria colonizing their mucosal barriers to prevent invasion. While the breach of barriers by bacteria typically leads to overt infection, increasing evidence supports a role for translocation of commensal bacteria across an impaired gut barrier to extraintestinal sites in the pathogenesis of autoimmune and other chronic, non-infectious diseases. Whether gut commensal translocation is a cause or consequence of the disease is incompletely defined. Here we discuss factors that lead to translocation of live bacteria across the gut barrier. We expand upon our recently published demonstration that translocation of the gut pathobiont Enterococcus gallinarum can induce autoimmunity in susceptible hosts and postulate on the role of Enterococcus species as instigators of chronic, non-infectious diseases.

Abstract
SCOPE Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common abdominal inflammatory disease. Disturbed gut homeostasis secondary to pancreatic inflammation aggravates the condition retroactively. The current study investigates potential beneficial effects of Clostridium butyricum (C. butyricum) strains on AP and underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS C. butyricum strains MIYAIRI 588 (CBM588) and CGMCC0313.1 (CB0313.1) were supplemented to mice for three weeks before experimental AP or SAP induction. Both CBM588 and CB0313.1 protected against AP, as evidenced by reduced serum amylase and lipase levels, pancreatic edema, and myeloperoxidase activity. Amelioration of both experimental AP and SAP by CB0313.1 indicated a non-model-specific effect. Moreover, C. butyricum inhibited pancreatic neutrophil and dendritic cell infiltration, nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat-containing family, pyrin domain-containing 3 inflammasome activation, and pro-inflammatory pathways. Additionally in the gut, C. butyricum strains attenuated AP-associated intestinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction, accompanied with reduced pathogenic bacteria Escherichia coli and Enterococcus penetration into pancreas. Gut microbiome analyses further revealed that beneficial effects of C. butyricum on pancreatic-gut homeostasis were correlated with improved dysbiosis. In particular, relative abundance of Desulfovibrionaceae decreased, and Verrucomicrobiaceae Clostridiaceae and Lactobacillaceae increased. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, a protective effect of C. butyricum in AP by modulating intestinal homeostasis is demonstrated.

Abstract
Enterococci are subdominant members of the human gastrointestinal microbiota. Enterococcus faecalis is generally harmless for healthy individuals, but it can cause a diverse range of infections in immunodeficient or elderly patients with severe underlying diseases. In this study, we analysed the levels of intestinal translocation of indigenous enterococci in C57BL/6, CF-1 and CX3CR1−/− mice upon clindamycin antibiotic-induced dysbiosis. We found that C57BL/6 was the most permissive model for enterococcal translocation and that initiation of E. faecalis translocation coincided with a threshold of enterococcal colonisation in the gut lumen, which once reached, triggered E. faecalis dissemination to deeper organs. We showed that the extent to which E. faecalis clinical strain VE14821 competed with indigenous enterococci differed between the C57BL/6 and CX3CR1−/− models. Finally, using a simplified gnotobiotic model, we observed E. faecalis crossing an intact intestinal tract using intestinal epithelial cells as one route to reach the lamina propria. Our study opens new perspectives for assessing the effect of various immunodeficiencies and for investigating mechanisms underlying enterococcal translocation.

Abstract
Introduction. Acute pancreatitis and pre-existing diseases (chronic alcohol intoxication) are challenging issues of modern surgery in terms of frequency of deaths and the number of complications.
Objective. To identify the best combination of immunomodulators, antioxidants and hepatoprotectors to correct immunometabolic disorders in acute destructive pancreatitis on the background of chronic alcohol intoxication (CAI).
Materials and methods. Studies were conducted on 377 healthy adult Wistar rats weighing 150-200 g. Alcohol intoxication was modeled by forced intragastric administration of a 20% ethanol solution at a dose of 3 ml/kg or 2.92 g/kg at 24 hours for 5 days, 30 days (CAI-30) or 60 days (CAI-60). Acute destructive pancreatitis (ADP) was modeled after R.N. Wang et al. (1995), modified by S.A. Alekhin et al. (2006). The efficacy of combining Hepon (5 mg/kg, orally, at 24 hours, No. 14), Hypoxen (750 mg/kg, orally, at 24 hours, No. 14), Phosphogliv (800 mg/kg, orally, at 24 hours, No. 14), Glutoxim (20 mg/kg, intramuscularly, at 24 hours, No. 5), Mexidol (50 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, at 24 hours, No. 14) and Heptral (760 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, at 24 hours , No. 5) was examined in animals with ADP on the background of CAI-30 and CAI-60.
Results and discussion. Different degrees of ethanol intoxication depending on time leads to the development of an impaired capacity of hepatocytes, as well as immune and metabolic disorders. The administration of Phosphogliv, Hypoxen and Hepon in case of CAI-30+ADP normalizes 12.1% and corrects 60.6% of the changed values. The combination of Heptral, Glutoxim and Mexidol normalizes 57.8% and corrects 42.4% of the values. In case of CAI-60+ADP, Phosphogliv, Hypoxen and Hepon normalizes 11.8% and corrects 38.2% of the values. The combination of Heptral, Glutoxim and Mexidol normalizes 17.6% and corrects 67.6% of the values, respectively.
Conclusion. In case of ADP along with CAI-30 and CAI-60, the combination of Heptral, Glutoxim and Mexidol is more preferable than that of Phosphogliv, Hypoxen and Hepon.
