Abstract
Bariatric surgical procedures such as sleeve gastrectomy (SG) provide effective type 2 diabetes (T2D) remission in human patients. Previous work demonstrated that gastrointestinal levels of the bacterial metabolite lithocholic acid (LCA) are decreased after SG in mice and humans. Here, we show that LCA worsens glucose tolerance and impairs whole-body metabolism. We also show that taurodeoxycholic acid (TDCA), which is the only bile acid whose concentration increases in the murine small intestine post-SG, suppresses the bacterial bile acid-inducible (bai) operon and production of LCA both in vitro and in vivo. Treatment of diet-induced obese mice with TDCA reduces LCA levels and leads to microbiome-dependent improvements in glucose handling. Moreover, TDCA abundance is decreased in small intestinal tissue from T2D patients. This work reveals that TDCA is an endogenous inhibitor of LCA production and suggests that TDCA may contribute to the glucoregulatory effects of bariatric surgery.
期刊介绍:
Cell Host & Microbe is a scientific journal that was launched in March 2007. The journal aims to provide a platform for scientists to exchange ideas and concepts related to the study of microbes and their interaction with host organisms at a molecular, cellular, and immune level. It publishes novel findings on a wide range of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. The journal focuses on the interface between the microbe and its host, whether the host is a vertebrate, invertebrate, or plant, and whether the microbe is pathogenic, non-pathogenic, or commensal. The integrated study of microbes and their interactions with each other, their host, and the cellular environment they inhabit is a unifying theme of the journal. The published work in Cell Host & Microbe is expected to be of exceptional significance within its field and also of interest to researchers in other areas. In addition to primary research articles, the journal features expert analysis, commentary, and reviews on current topics of interest in the field.
