Conversion of dietary inositol into propionate and acetate by commensal Anaerostipes associates with host health
NATURE COMMUNICATIONS(2021)
摘要
We describe the anaerobic conversion of inositol stereoisomers to propionate and acetate by the abundant intestinal genus Anaerostipes . A inositol pathway was elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance using [ 13 C]-inositols, mass spectrometry and proteogenomic analyses in A. rhamnosivorans , identifying 3-oxoacid CoA transferase as a key enzyme involved in both 3-oxopropionyl-CoA and propionate formation. This pathway also allowed conversion of phytate-derived inositol into propionate as shown with [ 13 C]-phytate in fecal samples amended with A. rhamnosivorans . Metabolic and (meta)genomic analyses explained the adaptation of Anaerostipes spp. to inositol-containing substrates and identified a propionate-production gene cluster to be inversely associated with metabolic biomarkers in (pre)diabetes cohorts. Co-administration of myo-inositol with live A. rhamnosivorans in western-diet fed mice reduced fasting-glucose levels comparing to heat-killed A. rhamnosivorans after 6-weeks treatment. Altogether, these data suggest a potential beneficial role for intestinal Anaerostipes spp. in promoting host health.
