However, the metabolism of dietary substrates by commensal gutmicrobiota and ultimately the impact of microbe-derived metabolites on hostphysiology, remain poorly understood.Approach and Results – Here, we interrogated the role of a single microbialmetabolite stemming from a flavonoid-rich diet, 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (4-HPAA), in a mouse model of high fat diet-induced obesity. Subcutaneousadministration of 4-HPAA led to a marked reversal of hepatic steatosis whencompared to scaffold control treated mice resulting from hepatic activation ofAMPKa and its downstream effectors. Furthermore, we revealed the rarity of thebacterial genes required to catabolize dietary flavonoids into 4-HPAA in humanmetagenomic datasets.Next, we used a multi-omics approach to identify microbe-derived metabolitesstemming postprandially from a single meal equivalent of a human-relevant fastfood diet. Here, we provided mice with control drinking water or antibiotic drinkingwater to ablate the gut microbial community prior to a single oral gavage of eitherchow control diet or fast food. Using untargeted mass spectrometry, we identifiedseveral putative metabolites that were postprandially enriched in the portal bloodof fast food-fed mice in a microbe-dependent manner. Furthermore, we utilized anunbiased RNA sequencing approach to survey diet and microbe-associatedhepatic transcriptional changes, highlighting the influence of both diet and the gutmicrobial metabolome on the liver transcriptome.Finally, we developed a novel surgical technique to continuously administer gutmicrobial metabolites intraportally, thus recapitulating the natural delivery of gutmicrobes from the mesentery to the liver via the portal vein. Here, we show thesuitability of this method for metabolites with a high degree of hepatic first ratemetabolism.Conclusion – These results underscore the microbial contribution to themetabolism of dietary intake and suggest that a single microbial metabolite suchas 4-HPAA is sufficient to influence host physiology. Moreover, we used a humanrelevant fast food diet to identify putative gut microbe-derived metabolites that mayinfluence host physiology in the postprandial state. Finally, we developed a novelsurgical technique to better recapitulate the physiologic delivery of gut microbialmetabolites for future studies. 2021-09-01 English text Case Western Reserve University School of Graduate Studies / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1624359488777241 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1624359488777241 restricted--full text unavailable until 2023-08-13 This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
