• Microbial diversity – what does it mean?

“MICROBIOME 101”

DEPARTMENT NAME

THE HUMAN MICROBIOME (MICROBIOTA?)• Microbiota = an ecological 

community of commensal, symbiotic and pathogenic microorganisms, which includes bacteria, archaea, protists, fungi and viruses

• Microbiome = the genomes contained within these organisms

• Many microbes are abundant in some individuals, and many microbes are prevalent among most individuals, but none are universal

• Although they can vary over time and share some similarity with some individuals, our intestinal contents appear to be highly personalized in terms of microbial presence, absence, and abundance

DEPARTMENT NAME

THE “BAD OLD DAYS”: IF IT CAN’T BE GROWN, IT CAN’T BE STUDIED!

• Plating samples on specialized media selective for the growth of that organism

• Identification by colony morphology, growth on different media, metabolic production or consumption

• This approach limited the range of organisms that could be detected to those that would actively grow in laboratory culture

• The vast majority of microbial species have never been grown in the laboratory

DEPARTMENT NAME

Intestinal epithelial cells

Lactobacillus

It doesn’t have to be grown to be studied!

DEPARTMENT NAME

• Like a human, a bacterial community consists of a collection of individual cells, each carrying its own genomic DNA

• Unlike a human, a bacterial community’s individual cells may or may not carry identical genomes (they usually don’t!)

CHARACTERIZING AN ENTIRE MICROBIAL COMMUNITY (A MICROBIOTA) BY ITS DNA

DEPARTMENT NAME

HOW TO DETERMINE “WHO’S THERE”

Sequence DNA

• Mapping = matching your sample’s As, Ts, Cs, and Gs to a bacterial DNA library 

• Some sequences can be identified as coming from specific bacterial species, others will be “unclassified”

• New species that are not yet cataloged, sequencing errors, etc.

Extract DNA

“Map” DNA

DEPARTMENT NAME

• Microbiota = the bacteria, archaea, protists, fungi and viruses that are present within a microbial community

• Microbiome = these organisms’ collective genetic material

• Standard sequencing workflow:

• Isolatingmicrobial DNA from a biological sample

• High‐throughput sequencing (typically on an Illumina platform)

• Mapping the As, Ts, Cs, and Gs to publicly available microbial DNA libraries

“MICROBIOME 101” SUMMARY (PART 1)

DEPARTMENT NAME

WHY MEASURE MICROBIOTA DIVERSITY?

• No known bacterial groups are widely and consistently shared among the human microbiome

• Decreased microbial diversity is associated with multiple human diseases

DEPARTMENT NAME

ALPHA VS BETA DIVERSITY

• Alpha diversity: the number of unique microbes (richness) and their relative distribution (evenness) within a sample

• Summary statistics within an individual sample

• Examples: Simpson, Shannon, Chao diversity indices

• Beta diversity: a similarity score between samples

• Allows analysis by sample clustering or by dimensionality reductions such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA).

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1. Identify the distinct patterns of gut bacterial community configurations in undernourished children

2. List dietary, environmental, and host factors that shape the gut microbiome of undernutrition, and understand how this “dysbiosis” can impair weight gain

3. Evaluate the clinical and preclinical evidence supporting the use of microbiome‐targeting therapies for undernutrition

DEPARTMENT NAME

• Globally, undernutrition contributes to 3.1 million child deaths per year.

• 96 million children (14%) are underweight and 159 million (24%) are stunted.

THE #1 HEALTH PROBLEM PLAGUING CHILDREN TODAY

DEPARTMENT NAME

• Gut microbes help regulate growth and body weight

• Most undernourished children in our care are very sick – medical illnesses (and medical treatments such as antibiotics) dramatically alter the microbiome

• Most studies of protein‐energy undernutrition enroll underweight but otherwise healthy children –they may offer the best insights into microbiome‐nutrition interactions

IS THE GUT MICROBIOME OF CHILDREN WITH PROTEIN‐ENERGY UNDERNUTRITION RELEVANT TO OUR PRACTICE?

DEPARTMENT NAME

CLOSING THOUGHTS• We must more accurately detect all gut microorganisms (including 

viruses and fungi) and understand their biological functions

• Microbes detected in stool are often not the same microbes that colonize the large/small bowel including the GI mucus layer – which might have a greater influence on health 

• Microbial communities in early life are unstable – at no other stage in a healthy person’s life are microbiota in such a state of flux, making it difficult to determine which microbes associate with health vs disease

• It is even more difficult to determine whether specific microbes actually promote health, or whether they simply thrive in a healthy gut environment

• One day we might be able to modify a child’s growth trajectory, vitamin stores, and other developmental parameters by manipulating the gut microbiota – but a great deal of research is still needed before these intriguing possibilities are ready for clinical practice
