Abstract
BACKGROUND: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a heterogeneous disease, which is closely related to environmental factors and gut microbiota. OBJECTIVE: To study gut microbiota in IBS-D of Han nationality in Southwest China and explore its relationship with environmental factors. METHODS: One hundred and twenty cases of IBS-D and 63 cases of HCs were recruited; baseline data such as age, height, and weight were collected. HAMA, HAMD, IBS-SSS, IBS-QOL, and laboratory tests were performed. Feces were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing. Then, the differences of gut microbiota were analyzed and looked for biomarkers of each. FAPROTAX was used to predict the functional differences of gut microbiota. Spearman analysis was conducted between the phylum level and environmental factor. RESULTS: There were significant differences in daily life between IBS-D and HCs, especially in the spicy taste. The scores of HAMA and HAMD, urea, and transaminase in IBS-D were significantly higher than those of HCs. The richness of gut microbiota in IBS-D was significantly lower than that of HCs, as well as the beta diversity, but not diversity. The biomarkers of IBS-D were Prevotella, Clostridiales, and Roseburia, and the biomarkers of HCs were Veillonellaceae, Bacteroides coprocola, and Bifidobacteriales. The functions of gut microbiota in IBS-D were significantly different from HCs. Correlation analysis showed that multiple gut microbiota were closely related to HAMA, IBS-SSS, IBS-QOL, inflammatory indexes, and liver enzymes. CONCLUSION: There are significant differences in richness of gut microbiota, flora structure, and flora function between IBS-D and HCs in Southwest China. These differences may be closely related to environmental factors such as eating habits, living habits, and mental and psychological factors. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: The trial was registered and approved in China Clinical Trial Registry (Registration No. ChiCTR2100045751).
