However, there are still low genetic penetrance health conditions, such as emergent infectious diseases, modern metabolic disorders, remain as urgent unmet clinical needs. Notably, with the recognition of microbiota as the human 2nd genome and it intimate relations with our health/disease states, microbita might offer the last piece of the puzzle to personalized healthcare. Toward this goal and with a team science approach consist of competent clinician, basic, information scientists and microbiologists, we aim to develop analytic platforms, including sequencing, culturomics and identification ones, for microbiota and metagenomics to scrutinize first the disease association and then clinical applications. A microbita dysbiosis has been demonstrated to lead to diseases of many organs and systems, such as respiratory, gastrointestinal, hepatic, metabolic, and cardiovascular systems. Nevertheless, gut microbiota and the dynamic immune system of HIV-infected patients remain unclear. Specific commensal species were reported to contribute to immune activation during HIV infection and correeponding malfunction of intestinal immune barrier, translocation of immune-stimulatory microbial products, and chronic systemic inflammation are thought to drive disease progression of AIDS. Each patient indeed leads to different clinical courses with the highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) and responses with discrete immune profiles. We thus hypothesize the mis-regulation of immunopathology in patients relies on his/her own gut microbiota signatures those cross-talk with the intestinal immunity then circulate to impact the whole body. Here, we will focus on exploring the relation between the gut microbiota signature changes and the dynamic immune profiles of HIV-infected patients during the anti-retroviral therapy as an initiative and three centralized subprojects are as the followings:Subproject 1: The modulation of gut microbiota and immune reconstitution among HIV-infected patients receive highly active anti-retroviral therapy – This subproject is consist of excellent clinician scientists aiming to provide a NGS service and genomic approaches platform as well as to identify of unmet clinical needs and providing clinical consultations. In cooperation with subproject 3, the alteration of gut microbiota in HIV-infected patients will be revealed. With supports from Subproject 2, the beneficial and/or unfavorable bacteria of HIV-infected patients receiving HAART treatment will also be identified.Subproject 2: Development and Application of Microbial Culturomics in the Analysis of Microbiota and Disease Relation – By bringing the expertise in microbial culturomics, MALDI-TOF MS and in vitro fertilization, this Subproject 2 focuses first on the isolation of previous identified infant allergy-causing R. gnavus and the potential beneficial and/or causative bacteria isolated from Subproject 1. Then the platform might then extend to solve the poor success pregnant rate of IVF-ET treatment.Subproject 3: Development of a user-friendly online analytic platform for metagenomics data and database for healthy individuals in Taiwan – A group of experienced researchers in the fields of bioinformatics and metagenomics will provide the bioinformatcs and metgenomic analytic pipelines for this pioneering project. With trainings of the dataset from subprojects, the Subproject 3 aims to establish a user-friendly online analytic platform for metagenomics data.愛滋病人類免疫不全病毒感染腸內微菌免疫微生物培養體學宏基因體學MALDI-TOF質譜儀總體基因體學線上分析平台資料庫HIVAIDSGut microbiotaImmunityCulturomicsMetagenomicsMatrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-tie of flight mass spectrometrymetagenomicsonline analytic platformdatabaseDevelopment of Analytic Platforms for Microbiota and Metagenomics to Scrutinize the Disease Association and Clinical Applications: the Altheration of Gut Microbiota in Hiv-Infected Patients as an Initiative
