Oral and intravenous iron treatment alter the gut microbiome differentially in dialysis patients

Huan Liu et al.

Summary: This study found that oral and intravenous iron therapy had different effects on the composition and diversity of gut microbiota. Oral iron reduced alpha-diversity, decreased the abundance of Firmicutes and Blautia, increased the abundance of Bacteroides and Lactobacillus, and increased the metabolic processes of phenylalanine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine. These findings suggest that intravenous iron may be more appropriate for maintenance hemodialysis patients.

Preventing Bacterial Translocation in Patients with Leaky Gut Syndrome: Nutrition and Pharmacological Treatment Options

Agata Twardowska et al.

Summary: Leaky gut syndrome is a medical condition characterized by intestinal hyperpermeability. Changes in bacterial composition, decreased expression levels of tight junction proteins, and increased concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokines can lead to intestinal hyperpermeability and the development of various diseases. Translocation of microorganisms and their toxic metabolites beyond the gastrointestinal tract can cause chronic inflammation and progression of disorders. Dietary intervention has shown potential in improving barrier function and restricting bacterial invasion, but there are no medical guidelines for the treatment or prevention of bacterial translocation in patients with leaky gut syndrome.

Correlation between intestinal flora disruption and protein-energy wasting in patients with end-stage renal disease

Jianguang Hu et al.

Summary: This study examined the effects of different dialysis treatments on the composition and structure of the intestinal flora in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The results showed that butyric acid-producing bacteria were positively correlated with protein-energy wasting (PEW) and negatively correlated with Escherichia. Improving intestinal diversity and increasing the amount of butyric acid-producing bacteria are potential therapeutic approaches to enhance protein-energy consumption in CKD patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

Summary: This study investigated the effects of a Fe(3+)-based phosphate binder on the oral and gastrointestinal microbiome of hemodialysis patients. Overall, the microbiome did not change significantly, but there were individual differences. Bacterial taxa that benefited from iron abundance lacked iron-binding siderophores or alternatives, while those that declined under iron abundance possessed these alternatives. Patients with microbiome shift were younger and had higher serum phosphate concentrations.

Gut Microbiota Correlates With Clinical Responsiveness to Erythropoietin in Hemodialysis Patients With Anemia

Yifan Zhu et al.

Summary: This study explores the changes in gut microbiota between ESRD patients with different responsiveness to EPO treatment and finds significant differences in gut microbiota composition between poor-response and good-response patients. By analyzing specific genera of gut microbiota, the occurrence of EPO hyporesponsiveness (EH) can be predicted accurately. Furthermore, certain genera of gut microbiota have a protective effect against EH. These findings provide new insights into the pathogenesis of renal anemia and suggest the potential role of gut microbiota in EPO treatment.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of gut microbiota in diabetic kidney disease: Comparisons with diabetes mellitus, non-diabetic kidney disease, and healthy individuals

Shisheng Han et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the differences in gut microbiota associated with diabetic kidney disease (DKD). The results showed that there were lower levels of microbial richness in DKD compared to healthy controls and different bacterial compositions between DKD and non-DKD subjects. The enrichment of genera Hungatella and Escherichia, as well as the depletion of butyrate-producing bacteria, were observed in DKD. These alterations in gut microbiota might be associated with the occurrence and development of DKD.

Summary: Alterations in gut microbiota were observed in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with or without dialysis. Dialysis reversed abnormal changes in certain bacterial genera in pre-dialysis patients. Functional predictions of microbial communities showed that peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) altered signal transduction and metabolic pathways in ESRD patients. Certain gut bacteria were associated with cardiovascular mortality and peritonitis in ESRD patients. This study suggested a potential impact of gut bacteria on patient prognosis.

The gut microbiome has become a lively field of research in diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. This study analyzed the gut microbial profiles in DN patients and healthy controls, revealing differences in microbial profiles based on disease stages, gender, and BMI. The results demonstrated dysbiosis and a decrease in gut bacterial richness and diversity in DN patients compared to healthy controls. Additionally, certain genera identified in the study may serve as potential microbial biomarkers for DN.
