Abstract:
Objective To investigate whether gut microbiome dysbiosis and translocation occurred in experimental uremia,and whether they consequently contribute to microinflammation.Methods Health male SD rats were randomly divided into uremic group and sham group.Uremic group were operated for 5/6 nephrectomy to establish uremic models,while sham group were only operated for nephrocapsulotomy.Postoperative blood,livers,spleens,and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) were subjected to bacterial 16S ribosomal DNA amplification to determine if bacteria were present.Bacterial genomic DNA samples from the MLNs and colon were amplified with specific primers designed by the 16SrRNA sequence of the species obtained from blood,livers and spleens.Pyrosequencing was used to analyze the ileum and colonic microbio.me of each subject.Intestinal permeability to 99mTc-DTPA,plasma hs-CRP,and IL-6 were measured.Results Bacterial DNA in extraiutestinal sites and altered colonic microbiomes at the phylum,family,and genus levels were detected in some rats in the uremic group.Bacterial genomic DNA in MLNs and colon were obtained by primers specific for bacterial species observed from blood,livers,and spleens of identical individuals.Intestinal permeability,plasma hs-CRP,and IL-6 levels were statistically higher in the uremic group compared with that in sham group(all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Gut microbiome dysbiosis occurs and presumably bacteria translocate to the systemic and lymph circulation,thereby contributing to microinflammation in experimental uremia.
