Study TitleFecal Metabolomics Reveals Products of Dysregulated Proteolysis and Altered Microbial Metabolism in Obesity-Related Osteoarthritis
Study TypeC18 Untargeted UPLC-MS Metabolomics Analysis
Study SummaryObjective. The objective of this study was to determine if perturbations in gut microbial composition and the gut metabolome could be linked to individuals with obesity and osteoarthritis (OA). Methods. Fecal samples were collected from obese individuals diagnosed with radiographic hand plus knee OA (n=59), defined as involvement of at least 3 joints across both hands, and a Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade 2-4 (or total knee replacement) in at least one knee. Controls (n=33) were without hand OA and with KL grade 0-1 knees. Fecal metabolomes were analyzed by a UHPLC/Q Exactive HFx mass spectrometer. Microbiome composition was determined in fecal samples by 16S ribosomal RNA amplicon sequencing (rRNA-seq). Stepwise logistic regression models were built to determine microbiome and/or metabolic characteristics of OA. Results. Untargeted metabolomics analysis indicated that OA cases had significantly higher levels of di- and tri-peptides and significant perturbations in microbial metabolites including propionic acid, indoles and other tryptophan metabolites. Pathway analysis revealed several significantly perturbed pathways associated with OA including leukotriene metabolism, amino acid metabolism and fatty acid utilization. Logistic regression models selected metabolites associated with the gut microbiota and leaky gut syndrome as significant predictors of OA status, particularly when combined with the rRNA-seq data. Conclusions. Adults with obesity and OA have distinct fecal metabolomes characterized by increased products of proteolysis, perturbations in leukotriene metabolism, and changes in microbial metabolites compared with controls. These metabolic perturbations indicate a possible role of dysregulated proteolysis in OA.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO001985
Collection Summary:Fecal samples were collected at each participant's home in and placed in a plastic biohazard bag with a frozen icepack to keep the samples cold. The samples were picked up by study personnel or returned to the study clinic by the participant within 24 hours of the time the stool was collected. Stool samples were stored at the clinic site in a -200C freezer for up to one week until transfer to a -800C freezer where samples were kept until processing.
Sample Type:Feces
Storage Conditions:-80℃

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR002004
Treatment Summary:NA

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP001998
Sampleprep Summary:Ninety-two fecal samples (250-300 mg) were randomized and homogenized in 50:50 acetonitrile:water (5 mL/ mg fecal mass) in MagNALyser tubes with ceramic beads, using an Omni Bead Ruptor (5 meters per second, two 30-sec cycles, 15 sec dwell time in between cycles). Samples were centrifuged at 16,000 relative centrifugal force (rcf) for 15 min, the supernatant was transferred, and centrifuged again at 16,000 rcf for 5 min. Quality control (QC) samples were prepared by pooling 70 µL supernatant from each of the study samples and processed identically to the study samples. An aliquot of the supernatant (100 mL) from each sample was transferred to 2.0 mL tubes and dried overnight by SpeedVac and then reconstituted in 200 mL of reconstitution solution (95:5 water-methanol solvent containing 500 ng/ml tryptophan d-5). Samples were centrifuged at 16,000 rcf at 4°C for 4 minutes and the supernatants were transferred to autosampler vials. The study samples were randomized with interspersed QC pools before data acquisition. An injection volume of 5 mL was used for the UPLC-MS analysis.
