人口腔菌群中编码羊毛硫抗生素链球菌是肝脏疾病的潜在风险因子
  • 不同簇中的羊毛硫抗生素可能利用人体不同的生态位并影响人类健康;
  • 簇 A2 中的羊毛硫抗生素主要来自链球菌,在健康人群口腔菌群中丰度较高;
  • 变形链球菌产生的羊毛硫抗生素可能会扰乱肠道菌群并导致菌群失调;
  • 编码羊毛硫抗生素的两种链球菌菌株可能是导致肝脏疾病的病原体,来自链球菌属的羊毛硫抗生素对肝细胞有毒性作用;
  • 总之,编码簇 A2 羊毛硫抗生素的口服链球菌易位至肠道可能对人类健康产生不利影响并导致疾病。

Abstract:收起
Recently, Streptococcus has been reported to be the etiology of several infectious diseases such as brain abscess and bacteremia in Journal of Infection.1,2 Here, we reported that Streptococcus sp. C150 and Streptococcus vestibularis, which encode lantibiotics, are potential risk factors for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and liver cirrhosis (LC), as revealed by a comparison of the gut microbiome of healthy subjects (n = 2042) and patients with diseases, including metabolic disorders, liver diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, and neurological disorders (n = 1683). We showed that the lantibiotic genes are frequently present and highly abundant in the gut microbiome of the patients with NAFLD and LC. Additionally, the deletion of these genes reduces toxicity to liver cells.
