Study Title | Study of environmental toxicants and gut microbiome in relation to obesity and insulin resistance |
Study Summary | Background & Aims: Environmental toxicants (ETs) associate with various adverse health outcomes. Here, we hypothesized that exposures to ETs are associated with obesity and insulin resistance via a dysbiotic gut microbiota and derived alterations in microbiome-mediated bile acid (BA) synthesis. Methods: Serum BAs, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and additional twenty-seven ETs were measured by mass spectrometry in 264 Danes (121 women and 143 men, age 56.6 ± 7.3 years, BMI 29.7 ± 6.0 kg/m2). Bacterial species were identified based on whole-genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing of DNA extracted from purified stool samples. Personalized genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) of gut microbial communities were developed to elucidate regulation of BA pathways. Subsequently, we compared findings in the human study with metabolic implications of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) exposure in a PPAR-humanized murine model. Results: Fasting serum concentrations of twelve ETs associated directly with measures of obesity and insulin resistance. Several bacterial species including Dorea longicatena, Dorea formicigenerans, Subdoligranulum spp., Veillonella spp., and Roseburia intestinalis associated positively and in a sex-dimorphic manner, particularly in women, with high exposure to ETs. Moreover, high serum concentrations of ETs were linked with higher fasting serum levels of microbiome-synthesized secondary BAs such as lithocholic acid (LCA) and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). These findings were substantiated by the outcome of a murine exposure study. Conclusion: Serum concentrations of ETs, particularly in women, were associated with an altered gut microbiome-mediated secondary BA biosynthesis, linked with obesity and insulin resistance. |

MS Comments: | The analyses were done using UHPLC-QTOFMS instrument from Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, CA, USA). The analysis was done on an ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, particle size 1.7 µm) by Waters (Milford, MA, USA). Mobile phase A consisted of H2O:MeOH (v/v 70:30) and mobile phase B of MeOH with both phases containing 2mM ammonium acetate as an ionization agent. The LC pump was programmed at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min with the elution gradient as follows: from min 0-1.5, the percentage of phase B was increased from 5% to 30%, from min 1.5-4.5, the percentage of B was increased to 70%, from min 4.5-7.5 the percentage of B was increased to 100% and held for 5.5 mins. A post-time of 5 min was used to regain the initial conditions for the next analysis. The total analysis time per sample was 18 min. The dual ESI ionization source was settings were as follows: capillary voltage was 4.5 kV, nozzle voltage 1500 V, N2 pressure in the nebulized was 21 psi and the N2 flow rate and temperature as sheath gas was 11 L/min and 379 °C, respectively. The m/z range 100-1700 in negative ion mode was used. MassHunter B.06.01 software (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) was used for all data acquisition. MS data processing was performed using open source software MZmine 2.5232. Quality control was performed throughout the dataset by including blanks, pure standard samples, and control plasma samples. The average RSD for the PFAS in QC samples was 10.6%, showing the robustness of the analytical procedure. The unknown compounds were identified based on exact mass and MS/MS data. |
