Study IDST001756
Study TitleMetabolomics of mouse feces comparing GF and CONV-R mice
Study Typeuntargeted metabolomics
Study SummaryUsing high coverage metabolomics, we profiled feces, blood sera and cerebral cortical brain tissues of germ-free C57BL/6 mice and their age-matched conventionally raised counterparts. Results revealed for all three sample matrices metabolomic signatures owing to microbiota, yielding hundreds of identified metabolites including 533 altered for feces, 231 for sera and 58 for brain tissues with numerous significantly enriched pathways involving aromatic amino acids and neurotransmitters.

Project Title:High-coverage metabolomics annotation uncovers microbiota-driven biochemical landscape of interorgan transport and gut-brain communication
Project Type:untargeted metabolomics
Project Summary:The mammalian gut harbors a complex and dynamic microbial ecosystem: the microbiota. While emerging studies support that microbiota regulates brain function with a few molecular cues suggested, the overall biochemical landscape of the “microbiota-gut-brain axis” remains largely unclear. Using high coverage metabolomics, we profiled feces, blood sera and cerebral cortical brain tissues of germ-free C57BL/6 mice and their age-matched conventionally raised counterparts. Results revealed for all three sample matrices metabolomic signatures owing to microbiota, yielding hundreds of identified metabolites including 533 altered for feces, 231 for sera and 58 for brain tissues with numerous significantly enriched pathways involving aromatic amino acids and neurotransmitters. Multicompartmental comparative analyses singled out microbiota-derived metabolites potentially implicated in interorgan transport and the gut-brain axis, exemplified by indoxyl sulfate and trimethylamine-N-oxide. Gender-specific characteristics of these landscapes were discussed. Our findings may be valuable for future research probing microbial influences on host metabolism and gut-brain communication.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO001826
Collection Summary:Prior to sacrifice and sample harvest, all mice were observed under their original housing conditions for one week; animals were not considered if they exhibited significant signs of serious injury or morbidity (e.g. malocclusion or fight wounds). Upon euthanization in CO2 chambers, feces, bulk brain, and heart blood sera were harvested, snap-frozen, and stored in -80 ºC freezer before analysis.
Sample Type:Feces
Storage Conditions:-80℃

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR001846
Treatment Summary:Steady states only: C57BL/6 mouse littermates of ~7 weeks old raised under GF and conventional conditions were age-matched upon selection for sacrifice and analyses, resulting in a final total of 24 mice, including 12 GF mice and 12 SPF CONV-R mice with 6 males and 6 females included in each. The animals were raised under the following conditions: 22ºC, 40-70% humidity, and a daily 12:12 hour light-dark cycle. For dietary administration, we consistently fed all mice the same purified (and sterile) standard rodent diets and provided tap water ad libitum.

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP001839
Sampleprep Summary:Fecal matter, blood sera, and brain tissues (of the cerebral cortical region) were aliquoted and extracted for metabolome analyses. To maximize coverage and throughput, extraction procedures were kept as simple and non-selective as can be.
