Gallstone disease (GSD) is associated with changes in the gut and gallbladder bacterial composition, but there is limited information on the role of the fungal community (mycobiome) in disease development. This study aimed to characterize the gallbladder mycobiome profiles and their interactions with bacteriome in GSD. A total of 136 bile and gallstone samples (34 paired for bacteriome, and 33 paired and extra 2 bile samples for mycobiome) were obtained from calculi patients with chronic cholecystitis. Bile and gallstone bacteriome and mycobiome were profiled by 16S and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rRNA gene sequencing, respectively. Gallbladder bacteriome, mycobiome, and interkingdom and intrakingdom interactions were compared between bile and gallstone. In general, microbial diversity was higher in bile than in gallstone, and distinct microbial community structures were observed among them. Deep Sea Euryarchaeotic Group, Rhodobacteraceae, and Rhodobacterales were microbial biomarkers of bile, while Clostridiales and were biomarkers of gallstone. Five fungal taxa, including , , and , were enriched in gallstone. Further ecologic analyses revealed that intensive transkingdom correlations between fungi and bacteria and intrakingdom correlations within them observed in gallstone were significantly decreased in bile. Large and complex fungal communities inhabit the gallbladder of patients with GSD. Gallstone, compared with bile, is characterized by significantly altered bacterial taxonomic composition and strengthened bacterial-bacterial, fungal-fungal, and bacterial-fungal correlations in the gallbladder of patients with GSD.
胆结石病(GSD)与肠道和胆囊细菌组成的变化有关,但关于真菌群落(真菌微生物组)在疾病发展中的作用的信息有限。本研究旨在表征GSD患者胆囊真菌微生物组谱及其与细菌微生物组的相互作用。从慢性胆囊炎结石患者中获取了总共136份胆汁和胆结石样本(34对用于细菌微生物组分析,33对以及额外2份胆汁样本用于真菌微生物组分析)。分别通过16S和内转录间隔区(ITS)rRNA基因测序对胆汁和胆结石的细菌微生物组和真菌微生物组进行分析。比较了胆汁和胆结石之间的胆囊细菌微生物组、真菌微生物组以及界间和界内相互作用。总体而言,胆汁中的微生物多样性高于胆结石,并且在它们之间观察到了不同的微生物群落结构。深海广古菌组、红杆菌科和红杆菌目是胆汁的微生物生物标志物,而梭菌目是胆结石的生物标志物。包括[具体真菌分类群1]、[具体真菌分类群2]和[具体真菌分类群3]在内 的五个真菌分类群在胆结石中富集。进一步的生态学分析表明,在胆结石中观察到的真菌与细菌之间的强烈界间相关性以及它们内部的界内相关性在胆汁中显著降低。大型且复杂的真菌群落栖息在GSD患者的胆囊中。与胆汁相比,胆结石的特征是GSD患者胆囊中的细菌分类组成显著改变,细菌-细菌、真菌-真菌和细菌-真菌之间的相关性增强。
