IBD has been associated with differential abundance of numerous organisms when compared to healthy controls, however few studies have investigated variability in the microbiome across intestinal locations, and how this variability might be related to disease location and phenotype. In this study we have analyzed the microbiome of a large cohort of individuals recruited at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, Canada. Biopsies were taken from subjects with Crohn's disease (CD) ulcerative colitis (UC), as well as healthy controls (HC), and individuals having undergone ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) for treatment of UC or familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Microbial 16S rRNA was sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform. We observed a great deal of variability in the microbiome characterizing different sampling locations. Samples from pouch and afferent limb were comparable in microbial composition. When comparing sigmoid and TI samples, more differences were observed. The greatest number of differentially abundant microbes was observed when comparing either pouch or afferent limb samples to sigmoid or TI. Despite these differences, we were able to observe modest microbial variability between IBD phenotypes and healthy controls, even when controlling for sampling location and additional experimental factors. The majority of detected associations were observed between healthy controls and CD, with decreases in specific genera in the families Ruminococcaceae and Lachnospiraceae characterizing tissue samples from individuals with CD. This study highlights important considerations when analyzing the composition of the microbiome, and also provides useful insight into differences in the microbiome characterizing these seemingly related phenotypes.
