| Study Title | Acylated putrescine therapeutic discovery for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: HILIC-neg, C8-pos and C18-neg profiling of mouse fecal samples |
| Study Type | Study 2: HILIC-neg, C8-pos and C18-neg profiling of mouse fecal samples. |
| Study Summary | The data generated in this study using the HILIC-neg, C8-pos, and C18-neg profiling method were used to prioritize both disease-associated and microbe-associated metabolic features with potential bioactivity from untargeted metabolomics data. This mouse fecal microbiome data was used to develop a filter and prioritization tool: Metabolome Analysis and Combined Annotation Ranks to pRioritize Novel bioactives, that we call micro-MACARRoN. This workflow annotates the microbial association of gut metabolic features by comparing fecal metabolomics data among germ-free (GF), Altered Schaedler flora community (ASF), and specific pathogen free (SPF) mice. Application of this analysis pipeline to a publicly available dataset of 546 IBD fecal metabolomes from the Integrative Human Microbiome Project (HMP2/iHMP) cohort study enabled us to narrow our focus to metabolic features that are gut microbiome dependent. Using this tool we determined ~79% of gnotobiotic mouse-curated, IBD-associated HMP2 features are microbially associated (n=2,289 out of 2,883) indicating a substantial contribution of microbes to the gut metabolomes in IBD as would be expected. |

| Project Title: | Acylated putrescine therapeutic discovery for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases |
| Project Summary: | Gut microbial metabolites influence immune responses and play a key role in regulating host metabolism. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) patients have altered gut microbial metabolic signatures driven by shifts in the microbiome. However, the microbial metabolites driving inflammation and remission and their immunomodulatory roles remain largely uncharacterized. We prioritized metabolic features from untargeted IBD fecal metabolomics and selected candidate features based on their microbial association for structural elucidation. We uncovered four acylated putrescines that are IBD-associated and microbially-dependent and investigated their bioactivity. One acylated putrescine, N-oleoylputrescine (NOP), has anti-inflammatory activity and suppressed type 1 immune responses. NOP ameliorated inflammation in several colitis models, modulating myeloid and lymphocyte cell populations and dampening proinflammatory responses, relevant for resolution of inflammation and maintenance of remission in IBD. We present an approach to identify clinically-relevant microbial metabolites from untargeted metabolomics useful for the discovery of bioactive molecules in IBD and other diseases involving host-microbial interactions. |

Sample Preparation:
| Sampleprep ID: | SP004073 |
| Sampleprep Summary: | Snap-frozen stool samples were thawed on ice, and then aqueous homogenates were generated by homogenizing samples in 10 volumes of water (mg: µL) using a TissueLyser II (QIAGEN) bead mill set to two 2 min intervals at 20Hz. The homogenate for each sample was divided into two 10 µL and two 30 µL aliquots in 1.5mL centrifuge tubes for LC-MS sample preparation. Metabolites were extracted from these homogenates for each method as follows; C8-pos: Bacterial cultures (10 μL) using 190 μL isopropanol containing 1-dodecanoyl-2-tridecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine as an internal standard (Avanti Polar Lipids; Alabaster, AL). After centrifugation (10 min, 9,000g, ambient temperature), supernatants (2 μL) were injected directly onto column. - C18-neg: Bacterial cultures (30 μL) were extracted using 90 μl methanol containing 15R-15-methyl Prostaglandin A2,15R-15-methyl Prostaglandin F2α, 15S-15-methyl Prostaglandin D2, 15S-15-methyl Prostaglandin E1, and 15S-15-methyl Prostaglandin E2 as internal standards (Cayman Chemical Co.) and centrifuged (10 min, 9,000g, 4°C). The supernatants (10 μL) were injected onto column. - HILIC-neg: Bacterial cultures (30 μL) were extracted with the addition of four volumes of 80% methanol containing inosine-15N4, thymine-d4 and glycocholate-d4 internal standards (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories). The samples were centrifuged (10 min, 9,000g, 4°C) and the supernatants 10 μL) were injected directly onto column. |
