In situ analysis of variations of arsenicals, microbiome and transcriptome profiles along murine intestinal tract.
Journal of hazardous materials(2021)
摘要
In situ-based studies on microbiome-host interactions after arsenic exposure are few. In this study, the variations in arsenics, microbiota, and host genes along murine intestinal tracts were determined after arsenic exposure for two months. There was a gradual increase in the concentration of total As (CtAs) in feces from ileum to colon, whereas CtAs in the corresponding tissues were relatively stable. Differences in arsenic levels between feces and tissues were significantly different. The proportion of arsenite (iAsⅢ) in feces gradually decreased, however, it gradually increased in tissues. After arsenic exposure, the diversity and abundance of microbial community and networks in each segment were significantly dysregulated. Notably, 328, 579 and 90 differently expressed genes were detected in ileum, cecum, and colon, respectively. In addition, microbiome and transcriptome analyses showed a significant correlation between the abundance of Faecalibaculum and expressions of Plb1, Hspa1b, Areg and Duoxa2 genes. This implies that they may be involved in arsenic biotransformation. In vitro experiments using Biofidobactrium and Lactobacillus showed that probiotics have arsenic transformation abilities. Therefore, gut microbiome may modulate arsenic accumulation, excretion and detoxification along the digestive tract. Moreover, the abundance and diversity of gut microbiome may be related to the changes in host health.
