In vitro interaction network of a synthetic gut bacterial community

Anna S. Weiss et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the growth and metabolic interactions of the Oligo-Mouse-Microbiota (OMM12) synthetic bacterial community in gut microbiome research. By conducting experiments, it was found that the OMM12 interaction network is influenced by exploitative and interference competition, with Enterococcus faecalis KB1 identified as an important driver of community composition.

Metabolic cross-feeding structures the assembly of polysaccharide degrading communities

Sammy Pontrelli et al.

Summary: A study on a model marine microbial community that degrades chitin reveals that chitinases secreted by the degraders produce specific chain length oligomers, which select for specialized consumers and influence the metabolites secreted by these consumers. Each species in the breakdown cascade exhibits unique hierarchical preferences for substrates, leading to sequential colonization of metabolically distinct groups over time. This study uncovers a hierarchical cross-feeding structure that allows biopolymer degraders to shape the dynamics of community assembly.

E. coli enhance colonization resistance against Salmonella Typhimurium by competing for galactitol, a context-dependent limiting carbon source

Claudia Eberl et al.

Summary: The composition of the intrinsic microbial communities plays a crucial role in determining whether invading pathogens can establish colonization or be blocked by commensal bacteria. This study found that E. coli can provide colonization resistance against Salmonella Typhimurium by depleting specific carbon sources in a microbial context that supports the removal of simple sugars from the intestine. In certain cases, the presence of other bacterial groups is essential for the colonization resistance mediated by commensal E. coli.

In vivo commensal control of Clostridioides difficile virulence

Brintha P. Girinathan et al.

Summary: Different species of Clostridia can protect against or worsen Clostridioides difficile infection in mice by modulating the pathogen's colonization, growth, and virulence through altering the gut-nutrient environment. This research lays the groundwork for mechanistically informed therapies to counter C. difficile disease using systems biology approaches to define host-commensal-pathogen interactions in vivo.

Metabolic adaption to extracellular pyruvate triggers biofilm formation in Clostridioides difficile

Yannick D. N. Tremblay et al.

Summary: Clostridioides difficile infection is a leading cause of hospital-acquired diarrhea, and successful infection relies on the absence of specific microbiota-produced metabolites. The study found that in the presence of deoxycholate, extracellular pyruvate induces biofilm formation, which may play a key role in driving C. difficile persistence in the gut.

Insights into a Pyruvate Sensing and Uptake System in Vibrio campbellii and Its Importance for Virulence

Stephanie Going et al.

Summary: Pyruvate plays a crucial role in living cells and bacterial pathogens, especially Vibrio campbellii. This bacterium possesses a single pyruvate transporter, regulated by a pyruvate-responsive histidine kinase/response regulator system. The sensing and uptake of pyruvate are important for the resuscitation of V. campbellii and its virulence against brine shrimp larvae.

Microbes exploit death-induced nutrient release by gut epithelial cells

Christopher J. Anderson et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates how nutrients released from apoptotic cells can promote the growth of Enterobacteriaceae and highlights the role of pyruvate formate-lyase-encoding pflB gene in bacterial colonization in various contexts. These findings provide new insights into host-pathogen interactions and have implications for gut inflammation and chemotherapy treatment.

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase Inhibitor Dichloroacetate Improves Host Control of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Infection in Human Macrophages

Cassandra L. R. van Doorn et al.

Summary: Global antimicrobial resistance increases underscore the need for novel strategies against infectious diseases. Host metabolic pathways play a crucial role in controlling intracellular bacterial pathogens. Targeting pyruvate metabolism through DCA represents a promising approach for treating Stm infections by impacting host cell function and bacterial control.
