Abstract

The pseudo germ-free (PGF) model has been widely used to research the role of intestinal microbiota in drug metabolism and efficacy, while the modelling methods and the utilization of the PGF model are still not standardized and unified. A comprehensive and systematic research of the PGF model on the composition and function of the intestinal microbiota, changes in host cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes expression and intestinal mucosal permeability in four different modelling cycles of the PGF groups are provided in this paper. 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing was employed to compare and analyze the alpha and beta diversity, taxonomic composition, taxonomic indicators and predicted function of gut microbiota in the control and PGF groups. Bacterial richness and diversity decreased significantly in the PGF group beginning after the first week of establishment of the PGF model with antibiotic exposure. The PGF group exposed to antibiotics for 4-week-modelling possessed the fewest indicator genera. Moreover, increased intestinal mucosal permeability occurred in the second week of PGF model establishment, indicating that one week of antibiotic exposure is an appropriate time to establish the PGF model. The results of immunoblots revealed that CYP1A2, CYP2C19 and CYP2E1 expression was significantly upregulated in the PGF group compared with the control group, implying that the metabolic clearance of related drugs would change accordingly. The abundance of functional pathways predicted in the gut microbiota changed dramatically between the control and PGF groups. This study provides information concerning the microbial and CYP450 enzyme expression profiles as a reference for evaluating drug metabolism differences co-affected by gut microbiota and host CYP450 enzymes in the PGF model.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 April 2023.
All research outputs
#15,687,152
of 23,911,072 outputs
Outputs from Gut Pathogens
#283
of 552 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#216,627
of 401,297 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Gut Pathogens
#6
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,911,072 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 552 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.7. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 401,297 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
