Abstract Background: The comparison between microbiota of cecal and colonic mucosa in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) was rarely studied. In addition, enterochromaffin (EC) cell had interaction with IBS. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship among gut microbiota, EC cell and diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D) symptoms in cecum and descending colon. Methods: Biopsies from cecum and descending colon were taken during endoscopy withdrawal. We assessed EC cell numbers, expression of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) and microbial diversity.Results: Total of 22 IBS-D patients and 22 health controls (HCs) were enrolled. The relative abundance of Ruminococcus_torques_group (4.91% vs. 2.20%, P = 0.04763) of cecum increased in IBS-D, while Raoultella (1.58% vs. 1.76%, P = 0.03117) and Fusobacterium (0.12% vs. 1.66%, P = 0.01892) were less abundant. In descending colon, the relative abundances of Ruminococcus_torques_group (5.94% vs. 2.29%, P = 0.04183) and Dorea (2.68% vs. 1.14%, P = 0.04962) of IBS-D increased but Fusobacterium (1.52% vs. 1.89%, P = 0.0345) decreased. EC cells number in cecum of IBS-D was higher than that in HCs and TPH1 level of IBS-D was higher than that of HCs in cecum and descending colon. Correlation analysis showed that Ruminococcus_torques_group were positively associated with HAM-A (r= 0.66, P = 0.004), HAM-D (r= 0.61, P = 0.009), EC cell number (r= 0.49, P = 0.047), IBS-SSS (r= 0.65, P = 0.004), Degree of Abdominal Pain (r = 0.63, P = 0.007), Frequency of Abdominal Pain (r = 0.63, P = 0.007), Frequency of Defecation (r = 0.60, P = 0.011). The abundance of Dorea were positively associated with EC cell number (r = 0.57, P = 0.018), IBS-SSS (r = 0.52, P = 0.034), HAM-A (r = 0.72, P = 0.001), HAM-D (r = 0.59, P = 0.012), Frequency of Abdominal Pain (r = 0.67, P = 0.003).Conclusions: EC cells number increased in IBS-D patients and the expression of TPH1 was higher than HCs. In addition, our results suggested Ruminococcus_torques_group and Dorea may be targets for treatment of IBS-D but still need further studies.

Abstract Background Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional gastrointestinal disease characterized by chronic abdominal discomfort and pain. The mechanisms of abdominal pain, as a relevant symptom, in IBS are still unclear. We aimed to explore the key genes and neurobiological changes specially involved in abdominal pain in IBS. Methods Gene expression data (GSE36701) was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database. Fifty-three rectal mucosa samples from 27 irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) patients and 40 samples from 21 healthy volunteers as controls were included. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between two groups were identified using the GEO2R online tool. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs was performed on the DAVID database. Then a protein–protein interaction network was constructed and visualized using STRING database and Cytoscape. Results The microarray analysis demonstrated a subset of genes (CCKBR, CCL13, ACPP, BDKRB2, GRPR, SLC1A2, NPFF, P2RX4, TRPA1, CCKBR, TLX2, MRGPRX3, PAX2, CXCR1) specially involved in pain transmission. Among these genes, we identified GRPR, NPFF and TRPA1 genes as potential biomarkers for irritating abdominal pain of IBS patients. Conclusions Overexpression of certain pain-related genes (GRPR, NPFF and TRPA1) may contribute to chronic visceral hypersensitivity, therefore be partly responsible for recurrent abdominal pain or discomfort in IBS patients. Several synapses modification and biological process of psychological distress may be risk factors of IBS.

Background and Aim: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a complex and heterogeneous disorder. Sensory, motor and barrier dysfunctions are the key physiological endophenotypes of IBS. Our aim is to review studies evaluating barrier dysfunction in adults and children with IBS, as well as to link those changes with IBS symptomatology and quality of life. Methods: A comprehensive and systematic review of multiple databases was performed up to March 2020 to identify studies comparing intestinal permeability in IBS patients with healthy controls. Both in vivo and in vitro studies were considered. Results: We identified 66 studies, of which 27 used intestinal probes to quantify barrier function. The prevalence of barrier dysfunction differed between PI-IBS (17–50%), IBS-D (37–62%) and IBS-C (4–25%). At a group level, permeability was increased compared with healthy controls in IBS-D (9/13 studies) and PI-IBS (4/4 studies), but only a minority of IBS-C (2/7 studies) and not in the only IBS-M study. All four studies in children with IBS demonstrated loss of barrier function. A heterogeneous set of tight junction genes were found to be altered in small and large intestines of adults with IBS, but these have not been evaluated in children. Positive associations were identified between barrier dysfunction and bowel disturbances (6/9 studies), abdominal pain (9/13 studies), overall symptom severity (1/6 studies), depression and anxiety (1/1 study) and quality of life (1/4 studies). Fecal slurry or supernatants of IBS patients were found to induce barrier disruption in animal models (5/6 studies). Conclusions: Barrier dysfunction is present in a significant proportion of adult and all pediatric IBS studies, especially in the IBS-D and PI-IBS subtype. The majority of studies indicated a positive association between loss of barrier function and symptoms such as abdominal pain and changes in the bowel function.
