Project Title:Restoration of mucosal and faecal microbiome and metabolome is associated with response to faecal microbiota transplantation and anti-inflammatory diet in active ulcerative colitis
Project Summary:Background Faecal microbiota transplantation with anti-inflammatory diet (FMT-AID) supports clinical response and deep remission in patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC). The present study aims to assess FMT-associated bacterial, fungal and metabolomic shifts in mucosal and faecal niches in active UC, and to correlate these changes with clinical and endoscopic outcomes of FMT. Study also determines if baseline microbial signatures in UC can determine FMT engraftment and clinical outcomes. We performed a prospective cohort study of patients with UC, recruited as part of the FMT-AID trial, and randomised to receive either 8-week FMT-AID or standard medical therapy (SMT). Non-IBD controls were also recruited in the study. Faecal and mucosal microbiome and mycobiome were characterised in 104 paired pre- and post-intervention samples (n=52, faecal; n=52, mucosal) from 26 patients (16 in FMT-AID arm + 10 in SMT arm) In addition, 48 non-IBD control samples (n=21, faecal; n=27, mucosal) were collected at single time point from 27 subjects. Clinical response (reduction in SCCAI≥3) was the primary outcome. A subset of samples (n=71; 40 paired pre-and post-FMT samples and 31 non-IBD control samples) were used for untargeted metabolomics. Results FMT-AID remodelled mucosal (β-diversity-adonis R2=2.13, p=0.02) and faecal (R2=2.76, p=0.003) bacterial communities and enhanced faecal bacterial diversity (p<0.001). FMT-AID enriched the gut with beneficial bacterial taxa (mucosal-Odoribacter and faecal- Slackia, Agathobaculum and Aldercreutzia) and reduced pathobiont abundances (mucosal- Enterococcus, Veillonella, Malassezia; faecal- Enterococcus, Candida tropicalis). Compared to clinical responders to FMT-AID, the non-responders had a distinct gut microbiome signature, which associated with elevated disease activity (Megasphaera and UCEIS (R=0.77, FDR-q=0.02), Malassezia slooffiae and SCCAI (R=0.81; FDR-q=0.01), UCEIS (R=0.62; FDR-q=0.12) and FCP (R=0.88; FDR-q=0.003)]. FMT-AID also restored mucosal and faecal metabolome with ‘health-associated’ metabolites. Higher pre-intervention abundances of beneficial taxa in mucosa and faeces associated with positive outcomes of FMT-AID. Pre-FMT faecal bacteriome also correlated with post-FMT engraftment of beneficial bacteria. Conclusions Enrichment of specific beneficial bacterial, fungal and metabolomic signatures in faecal and mucosal niches was associated with positive clinical, biochemical and endoscopic outcomes following FMT-AID in patients with UC. Pre-FMT bacteriome was associated with post-FMT engraftment of beneficial bacteria and clinical response.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO003992
Collection Summary:Fecal samples were collected at a single time point from non-IBD controls and twice from patients with UC, once before the commencement of FMT-AID (Pre-FMT) and once after 7 weekly FMT sessions (Post-FMT). Fecal samples were collected in sterile stool vials, homogenized manually and distributed in 50mg aliquots in sterile 2ml cryovials. The aliquots were flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C for metabolite extraction.

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR004008
Treatment Summary:FMT-AID arm received seven consecutive weekly, multi-donor pooled faecal microbiota transplantations (FMT), administered colonoscopically with an anti-inflammatory diet (AID). The AID was enriched in components supporting the expansion of T-regulatory cells, healthy gut microbiota and improvement of gut barrier integrity. AID suggested avoidance of gluten-based grains, meat, refined sugars, food additives and dairy products and promoted the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables (especially cruciferous vegetables as a source of AhR ligands), fermented foods and polyphenols.
Treatment:Faecal microbiota transplantation with anti-inflammatory diet
Treatment Compound:Pooled, multi-donor faecal suspension
Treatment Route:Colonoscopic infusion of FMT
Treatment Dose:50 g of stool homogenized with 200-250 mL of 0.9% normal saline till liquid consistency.
Treatment Dosevolume:200-250 mL of fecal suspension
Treatment Vehicle:0.9% normal saline
Human Fasting:Not required
Human Endp Clinical Signs:The primary outcome measure for the present study is clinical response (reduction in SCCAI score by 3 or more points), and secondary outcomes are clinical remission (SCCAI <2), endoscopic remission (UCEIS <1), and endoscopic response (decline in UCEIS by 2 or more points).

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP004005
Sampleprep Summary:For fecal metabolome extraction, 100 μL of 50% methanol was added to each Precellys homogenization tube containing ~50 mg stool sample, followed by homogenization in the Precellys 24 tissue homogenizer. Homogenized samples were subjected to 90-second heat shock treatment at 37°C. 150 μL of 100% methanol was then added per sample, followed by a 10 min incubation on ice. Samples were centrifuged at 1400rpm for 15 min at 4°C, and 200uL of supernatant from each sample was mixed with 200uL of methyl-tert-butyl-ether (MTBE). This mixture was vortexed for 1 hour at RT, followed by centrifugation at 14000 rpm for 15 min at 4°C. 80 μL from each of the aqueous and organic phases were pooled together in a fresh tube from each sample and vacuum dried overnight in a Speed Vac. Metabolite extracts were reconstituted in 15% acetonitrile for reverse phase chromatography and run on the Orbitrap Fusion Tibrid Mass Spectrometer (Thermofisher Scientific) for an untargeted LCMS-based metabolomic screening.
