BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Gut dysbiosis characterized by an imbalanced microbiota is closely involved in the pathogenesis of a widespread gastrointestinal inflammatory disorder, inflammatory bowel disease. However, it is unclear how the complex intestinal microbiota affects development or resistant of mucosal inflammation. Our aim was to investigate the impact of the gut microbiota on susceptibility in a mouse model of ulcerative colitis.
METHODS: We compared the susceptibility to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis of inbred BALB/c mice obtained from the 3 main distributors of laboratory animals in Japan. Clinical symptoms of the colitis and the faecal microbiota were assessed. Cohousing approach was used to identify whether the gut microbiota is a primary factor determining disease susceptibility.
RESULTS: Here, we showed differences in the susceptibility of BALB/c mice from the vendors to DSS colitis. Analysis of the gut microbiota using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing revealed clear separation of the gut microbial composition among mice from the vendors. Notably, the abundance of the phylum Actinobacteriota was strongly associated with disease activity. We also observed the expansion of butyrate-producing Roseburia species in mice with decreased susceptibility of the disease. Further cohousing experiments showed that variation in clinical outcomes was more correlated with the gut microbiota than genetic variants among substrains from different suppliers.
CONCLUSION: A BALB/c substrain that was resistant to DSS-induced colitis was observed, and the severity of DSS-induced colitis was mainly influenced by the gut microbiota. Targeting butyrate-producing bacteria could have therapeutic potential for ulcerative colitis.
