Abstract Background Microbiota is most likely essential in the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease (CD). Fecal diversion after ileocecal resection (ICR) protects against CD recurrence, whereas infusion of fecal content triggers inflammation. After ICR, the majority of patients experience endoscopic recurrence in the neoterminal ileum, and the ileal microbiome is of particular interest. We have assessed the mucosa-associated microbiome in the inflamed and noninflamed ileum in patients with CD. Methods Mucosa-associated microbiome was assessed by 16S rRNA sequencing of biopsies sampled 5 and 15 cm orally of the ileocecal valve or ileocolic anastomosis. Results Fifty-one CD patients and forty healthy controls (HCs) were included in the study. Twenty CD patients had terminal ileitis, with endoscopic inflammation at 5 cm, normal mucosa at 15 cm, and no history of upper CD involvement. Crohn’s disease patients (n = 51) had lower alpha diversity and separated clearly from HC on beta diversity plots. Twenty-three bacterial taxa were differentially represented in CD patients vs HC; among these, Tyzzerella 4 was profoundly overrepresented in CD. The microbiome in the inflamed and proximal noninflamed ileal mucosa did not differ according to alpha diversity or beta diversity. Additionally, no bacterial taxa were differentially represented. Conclusions The microbiome is similar in the inflamed and proximal noninflamed ileal mucosa within the same patients. Our results support the concept of CD-specific microbiota alterations and demonstrate that neither ileal sublocation nor endoscopic inflammation influence the mucosa-associated microbiome.

Abstract Background The microbiota most likely has an essential role in the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease (CD). While faecal diversion after ileocecal resection (ICR) protects against CD recurrence, re-exposure triggers inflammation. After ICR, the majority of patients develop recurrence in the neoterminal ileum and the ileal microbiome is of particular interest. We have therefore assessed the mucosa-associated bacterial microbiome in the inflamed and non-inflamed ileum of patients with CD. Methods Patients with an established diagnosis of CD undergoing ileocolonoscopy and healthy controls (HC) referred for colonoscopy due to rectal bleeding or screening for disease, but without any detected gastrointestinal pathology were invited to participate. Exclusion criteria included use of antibiotic treatment for the past 2 months. Mucosal pinch biopsies were sampled 5 cm and 15 cm orally of the ileocecal valve or ileocolic anastomosis for comparisons within the same patients. The biopsies were analysed by 16S rRNA sequencing, α- and β-diversity was assessed by Shannon entropy and Bray-Curtis dissimilarity index respectively. Histologic inflammation was graded. Results Fifty-one CD patients, where of 32 with previous ICR, and 40 HC were included in the study. Of the 51 CD patients, 20 had terminal ileitis, with endoscopically inflamed mucosa at 5 cm and normal appearing mucosa at 15 cm and no history of upper GI disease involvement. Seven CD patients had ileal stenosis. CD patients (n = 51) had lower α-diversity and separated clearly from HC on β-diversity plots (Figure 1). Twenty-three bacterial taxa were differentially represented in CD patients and HC, among these Tyzzerella 4 was found to be profoundly overrepresented in CD (p = 4.1 × 10–68). When comparing the microbiome in the inflamed ileal mucosa with the proximal non-inflamed mucosa within CD patients (n = 20) neither α- or β-diversity differed (Figure 2). Furthermore, no bacterial taxa were differentially represented in the inflamed vs. proximally non-inflamed mucosa. CD patients operated with ICR had lower α-diversity (p = 0.021), but β-diversity did not differ from CD patients without ICR. CD patients with stenosis had lower abundances of Bacteroides, Sutterella and Akkermansia species. Conclusion 23 taxa were differentially expressed in CD compared with HC. The ileal mucosa-associated microbiome is similar assessed by both α- and β-diversity in the inflamed mucosa and the proximal non-inflamed mucosa within the same patients. Our results support the concept of CD specific microbiota alterations and demonstrate that neither ileal sub-location nor endoscopic inflammation itself influence the mucosa-associated microbiome.

Abstract Background The expression profiles of the intestinal mucosa have not been comprehensively investigated in asthma. We aimed to explore this in the Correlated Expression and Disease Association Research (CEDAR) patient cohort. Methods Differential expression analysis of ileal, transverse colon, and rectal biopsies were supplemented by a comparison of transcriptomes from platelets and leukocytes subsets, including CD4+, CD8+, CD14+, CD15+, and CD19+ cells. Asthma patients (n = 15) and controls (n = 15) had similar age (p = 0.967), body mass index (p = 0.870), similar numbers of females (80%) and smoking rates (13.3%). Results Significant differential expression was found in the ileum alone, and not in any other cell/tissue types. More genes were found to be overexpressed (1,150) than under-expressed (380). The most overexpressed genes included Fc Fragment of IgG Binding Protein (FCGBP, logFC = 3.01, pFDR = 0.015), Mucin 2 (MUC2, logFC = 2.78, pFDR = 0.015), and Alpha 1B Defensin (DEFA1B, logFC = 2.73, pFDR = 0.024). Gene ontology implicated the immune system, including interleukins 4 and 13, as well as antimicrobial peptides in this overexpression. There was concordance of gene over- (STAT1, XBP1) and underexpression (NELF, RARA) in asthma and Crohn’s disease ileum when our results were compared to another dataset (p = 3.66 × 10–7). Conclusion Ileal mucosa in asthma exhibits a specific transcriptomic profile, which includes the overexpression of innate immune genes, mostly characteristic of Paneth and goblet cells, in addition to other changes that may resemble Crohn’s disease.

Abstract Background and aims Crohn’s Disease (CD) pathogenesis is still unclear. Disorders in the mucosal immunoregulation and its crosstalk with the microbiota may represent an important component in tissue injury. We aimed to characterize the molecular immune response distribution within the ileal layers and to evaluate the correlated microbiota in pathological/healthy settings comparing first surgery/relapse clinical conditions. Methods We enrolled 12 CD patients. A comprehensive analysis of ileal mucosa, submucosa and serosa broad-spectrum cytokines’ panel was performed through a multiplex approach. In addition, ileal microbiota composition was assessed through Next Generation Sequencing. Results We observed a distinct profile (of IL1-α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-8, ICAM-1, E-Selectin, P-Selectin, IP-10, IL 6, and IL 18) across the CD vs healthy ileal layers; and a different distribution of IFN-γ, P-Selectin, IL-27 and IL-21 in first surgery vs relapse patients. In addition, the phylum Tenericutes, the family of Ruminococcaceae, and the genus Mesoplasma and Mycoplasma were significantly enriched in pathological setting. Significant microbiota differences were observed between relapse vs first surgery patients regarding the class Bacteroidia, the genus of Prevotella, Flavobacterium, Tepidimonas and Escherichia/Shigella. Finally, the abundance of the genus Mycoplasma was positively correlated with IL-18. Conclusions We describe a dissimilarity of cytokines’ distribution and microbiota composition within the CD and the adjacent healthy ileal tissue layers and between first operation and surgical relapse. Our results give a potential insight into the dynamics of the gut microbiota-immune axis in CD patients, leading to new biomarkers’ detection.

Abstract Purpose The most frequent long-term complication after ileocecal resection in Crohn’s disease is anastomotic recurrence and subsequent stenosis. Recurrence typically begins at the site of the anastomosis, raising the question of whether the surgical technique of the anastomosis could affect recurrence rates. Kono-S anastomosis is a hand-sewn antimesenteric functional end-to-end anastomosis that offers a wide lumen that is well accessible for endoscopic dilatation. The purpose of our study is to review the rate of postoperative complications almost 2 years after the introduction of this technique. Materials and methods This is a prospective single-center cohort study of all consecutive patients with Crohn’s disease undergoing ileocecal resection. Patients’ characteristics as well as specific data for the surgical procedure and short-term outcome were evaluated. Results Thirty patients were operated for Crohn’s disease of the terminal ileum (n = 24) or anastomotic recurrence (n = 6). Postoperative complications with a Clavien-Dindo Score ≥ IIIb were observed in three patients. One patient showed a hemorrhage and underwent surgical hemostasis. Two patients developed anastomotic leakage; in both cases, ileostomy was created after resection of the anastomosis. The median hospital stay was 9 days (IQR 7–12). A comparison with a historic group of conventionally operated patients of our hospital revealed no differences in short-term results except for the duration of surgery. Conclusion The Kono-S anastomosis is associated with acceptable short-term results, complications, and recurrence rates comparable with the established anastomotic techniques. Longer operation times are observed, but the few published studies concerning long-term recurrence are promising.
