The significant anatomical changes in large intestine of germ-free (GF) mice provide excellent material for understanding microbe-host crosstalk. We observed significant differences of GF mice in anatomical and physiological involving in enlarged cecum, thinned mucosal layer and enriched water in cecal content. Furthermore, integration analysis of multi-omics data revealed the associations between the structure of large intestinal mesenchymal cells and the thinning of the mucosal layer. Increased expression in GF mice may contribute to enhanced water secretion or altered hydrodynamics in the cecum. In addition, the proportion of epithelial cells, nutrient absorption capacity, immune function and the metabolome of cecum contents of large intestine were also significantly altered. Together, this is the first systematic study of the transcriptome and metabolome of the cecum and colon of GF mice, and these findings contribute to our understanding of the intricate interactions between microbes and the large intestine.
无菌(GF)小鼠大肠的显著解剖学变化为理解微生物与宿主的相互作用提供了极佳的材料。我们观察到GF小鼠在解剖学和生理学方面存在显著差异,包括盲肠增大、黏膜层变薄以及盲肠内容物水分增多。此外,多组学数据的整合分析揭示了大肠间充质细胞结构与黏膜层变薄之间的关联。GF小鼠中表达增加可能有助于增强盲肠中的水分分泌或改变流体动力学。此外,大肠上皮细胞比例、营养吸收能力、免疫功能以及盲肠内容物的代谢组也发生了显著变化。总之,这是对GF小鼠盲肠和结肠转录组和代谢组的首次系统研究,这些发现有助于我们理解微生物与大肠之间复杂的相互作用。
