Composition and Collection Feasibility of Gut Microbiota in Children With and Without Obesity

Adults with obesity have an imbalance of bacteria in their intestines which may contribute to weight gain and diseases related to obesity. Restoring the balance of these bacteria (the "microbiota") could help reduce weight and related diseases. However, little is known about this imbalance in children with obesity. This research study will map out the compositions of the gut microbiota of children and compare them with those of children who have healthy weights and different degrees of obesity. This project will also measure the amounts of fatty acids in the stools which are an indication of how efficiently the intestines absorb calories from food. If an imbalance is detected in children with obesity, then this information can help researchers test ways to restore the gut microbiota with hopes of reducing weight and some of its related health problems.

Studiebefolkning

150 participants will be recruited from 4 primary care sites (2 urban and two rural) and a tertiary pediatric weight management clinic (PWMC) located in Central Illinois over an 18 month period. Enrollment will equally represent urban and rural lean participant living environments.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Microbiota Composition
Tidsramme: Over 2 years
High-throughput sequencing targeting the 16S rRNA gene will be used to detect and identify bacteria in fecal samples. DNA extraction and library preparation will be performed at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria, and libraries will be subjected to 16S rDNA sequencing (approximately 10k reads will be obtained per sample) on a MiSeq instrument. Using 10k reads per sample provides stable patterns for human stool microbiota. The 16S data will provide information about the presence and abundance of bacteria, and will be analyzed with Qiime, an open source bioinformatics package.

Short Chain Fatty Acid Content
Tidsramme: Over 2 years
Gas Chromatography will be used to measure SCFA amounts, specifically acetate, butyrate, proprionate. Preserved aliquot samples will be analyzed on Agilent GC/MS system (6890GC/5973 MS with 7683B autosampler) with gas chromatography performed on a ZB-WAX (30 m×0.32 mm I.D., 0.25um film thickness) capillary column (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA). The inlet and MSD interface temperatures will both be 250°C, with the ion source temperature adjusted to 230°C. The helium carrier gas will be kept at a constant flow rate of 3.2 ml/min. The temperature program is: initial 2-min isothermal heating at 80°C, followed by an oven temperature increase of 20°C/min to 110°C, then 10°C/min to 130°C, and then 35°C/min to 255°C. Mass spectra will again be recorded in the m/z 50-300 scanning range.
Over 2 years
Specimen Quality
Tidsramme: Over 2 years
Technical factors, which may affect microbial compositions (such as times of specimen collection, home freezer storage removal, shipping, and arrival) will be recorded as independent variables. To estimate and minimize the effect of technical variables, principal component analysis will be used and the study will follow the International Human Microbiome Standards
