Analysis of the Microbiome in the Healthy Smokers and COPD Patients
April 3, 2020 updated by: Sei Won Lee, Asan Medical Center
This study is to build a microbiome cohort by collecting sputum and fecal samples every few months for three years from healthy smokers and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.
The aim of this study is to analyze the composition of microbiome of various samples (e.g.
sputum, feces) and describe the difference between healthy smokers and COPD patients.

Detailed Description
After the introduction of the gut-lung axis theory, extensive studies revealed the diversity of microbiomes among healthy smokers and COPD patients form the respiratory samples or lung tissues.
In the previous study, distinct difference in composition of microbiome in lung tissue between healthy smokers and COPD patients was reported.
This study is to build a microbiome cohort by collecting sputum and fecal samples every few months for three years from healthy smokers and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients who are being followed up by Asan Medical Center.
The aim of this study is to analyze the composition of microbiome of various samples (e.g.
sputum, feces) and describe the difference between healthy smokers and COPD patients.
This study would help establishing gut-lung axis model in humans.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Alpha diversity measured by operational taxonomic unit (OTU) quantitative analysis
Time Frame: An average of 3 months
|
DNA is extracted from each sample from each patient by using a DNA Isolation Kit.
The 16S universal primers are used for amplification of 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) genes with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system.
After amplication, sequencing is performed using the GREENGENES database, after which a metagenomic analysis was performed by the MD Healthcare corporation using MDx-Pro software (Ver.1,
Seoul, South Korea).
Taxonomic assignment of these sequences is carried out with an operational taxonomic unit (OTU) cutoff of 3%.

An average of 3 months
|
Microbiome composition by metagenomic analysis
Time Frame: An average of 3 months
|
The composition of microbiome is presented as bar graph.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Biodiversity described by the Shannon diversity index and the Simpson index
Time Frame: An average of 3 months
|
The Shannon index and the Simpson index is calculated by using metagenomic data.
|
An average of 3 months
|
Biodiversity described by Principal Component Analysis (PCA)
Time Frame: An average of 3 months
|
PCA is performed for all 16S rRNA gene reads clustered at a 97% similarity.
|
An average of 3 months
