Project Title:Short-term alterations in dietary amino acids override host genetic susceptibility and reveal mechanisms of Salmonella Typhimurium small intestine colonization
Project Type:Untargeted Metabolomics analysis
Project Summary:In addition to individual genetics, environmental factors, i.e., short-term dietary changes, may influence host susceptibility to gastrointestinal infection. Herein, we developed a model in which CBA/J mice, a genetically resistant strain that tolerates intestinal colonization by the enteric pathogen Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Tm), rapidly succumb to infectious gastroenteritis after exposure to a L-amino acids (AA) rich diet. In mice, S. Tm-gastroenteritis is restricted to the cecum (large intestine), limiting their use to understand S. Tm small intestine (ileum) colonization, a feature of human Salmonellosis. Surprisingly, CBA mice fed AA diet demonstrated enhanced S. Tm ileal colonization and mortality. Using germ-free mice and ileal-fecal slurry transplant, we found that diet-dependent S. Tm ileal colonization to be microbiota-dependent. Mechanistically, S. Tm relied on Fructosyl-asparagine utilization to expand in the ileum during infection. We demonstrate how AA-based diet overrides host genetics by altering the gut microbiota’s ability to prevent S. Tm ileal colonization.
