项目总结/摘要 多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)是育龄妇女最常见的内分泌疾病 国际吧除了不孕症,许多患有PCOS的女性还存在代谢异常,导致不孕症。 2型糖尿病和心血管疾病的风险增加。研究表明大肠 包含一个复杂的微生物群落(肠道微生物组),肠道微生物组被改变, 患有肥胖和2型糖尿病等代谢紊乱的人,以及肠道微生物组的变化 可能导致代谢失调。最近的几项研究,包括我们实验室的两项研究,报告说, 在女性和啮齿动物模型中,肠道微生物组的变化与PCOS有关。我们还展示 这些变化与PCOS妇女和来曲唑诱导的高雄激素血症相关。 PCOS小鼠模型,表明升高的雄激素可能调节女性的肠道微生物组。我们 初步研究表明,来自来曲唑治疗小鼠的粪便微生物组移植增加了 无菌小鼠的体重以及来曲唑处理的小鼠与安慰剂小鼠的共同圈养导致 改善PCOS代谢表型。我们的研究结果支持了以下观点: 肠道微生物组和PCOS,也表明肠道微生物组的操作可以改善PCOS 症状研究还表明,PCOS妇女和PCOS小鼠模型的血清LBP较高, 提示多囊卵巢综合征患者肠道通透性可能发生改变。总的来说,这些研究表明, 与高雄激素血症相关的肠道失衡或"生态失调"可能有助于发展, PCOS的病理我们建议使用来曲唑诱导的PCOS小鼠模型来验证这一假设 雄激素通过雄激素受体的作用导致肠道微生物组和肠道的失调, 上皮功能,这反过来又有助于PCOS的发展和病理。目标1: 我建议使用雄激素受体拮抗剂氟替卡松来确定雄激素受体是否是必要的 肠道微生物组、肠道通透性和代谢表型的变化。在目标2中,我们将使用细菌- 释放小鼠,以确定肠道微生物组是否是代谢性疾病发展所必需和足够的。 表型。最后,在目标3中,我们将使用粪便微生物组移植来确定是否调节 肠道微生物组可以改善PCOS生殖或代谢表型。此外,我们将使用 宏基因组学与代谢组学相结合,以确定哪些微生物和代谢物在代谢过程中发生了改变。 来曲唑诱导的PCOS小鼠模型,以确定潜在的治疗靶点。结果从这个 该提案有可能回答有关肠道微生物组在疾病中的作用的基本问题。 PCOS的发展和病理学,并加快开发新的治疗方案, PCOS(例如,生物活性分子、益生菌前或益生菌疗法)。
英文摘要
Project Summary/Abstract Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in reproductive-aged women worldwide. In addition to infertility, many women with PCOS have metabolic abnormalities that result in an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Studies have shown that the large intestine contains a complex community of microorganisms (the gut microbiome), that the gut microbiome is altered in humans with metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, and that changes in the gut microbiome may contribute to metabolic dysregulation. Several recent studies, including two from our lab, reported that changes in the gut microbiome were associated with PCOS in women and in rodent models. We also showed that these changes correlated with hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS and in the letrozole-induced PCOS mouse model, suggesting that elevated androgens may regulate the gut microbiome in females. Our preliminary studies showed that fecal microbiome transplantation from letrozole-treated mice increased the weight of germ-free mice and that co-housing letrozole-treated mice with placebo mice resulted in improvement of the PCOS metabolic phenotype. Our results support the idea that there is a direct link between the gut microbiome and PCOS and also suggest that manipulation of the gut microbiome may improve PCOS symptoms. Studies also showed higher serum LBP in women with PCOS and in PCOS mouse models, suggesting that gut permeability may be altered in PCOS. Collectively, these studies suggest that a microbial imbalance, or “dysbiosis”, in the gut linked to hyperandrogenism may contribute to the development and pathology of PCOS. We propose to use the letrozole-induced PCOS mouse model to test the hypothesis that androgen action via the androgen receptor results in dysregulation of the gut microbiome and gut epithelial function, which in turns contributes to the development and pathology of PCOS. In Aim 1, we propose to use the androgen receptor antagonist, flutamide to determine if the androgen receptor is necessary for changes in the gut microbiome, gut permeability and the metabolic phenotype. In Aim 2, we will use germ- free mice to determine whether the gut microbiome is necessary and sufficient for development of a metabolic phenotype. Finally, in Aim 3, we will use fecal microbiome transplantation to ascertain whether modulation of the gut microbiome can improve PCOS reproductive or metabolic phenotypes. In addition, we will use metagenomics coupled with metabolomics to identify which microbes and metabolites are altered in the letrozole-induced PCOS mouse model in order to identify potential therapeutic targets. Results from this proposal have the potential to answer fundamental questions concerning the role of the gut microbiome in the development and pathology of PCOS and expedite development of novel treatment options for women with PCOS (e.g., bioactive molecules, pre- or probiotic therapies).
