1 The Intestinal Microbiota and the Developing Immune System 4 Feb 2016 The Intestinal Microbiota 10 fold more bacterial cells than human cells fold more bacterial genes than human genes Why does this matter? Commensals and development Dysbiosis and disease Shaping the microbiota? Stomach 10 3 /g ph 1-3 Jejunum /g ph 6-7 Ileum /g ph 6-8 Colon /g ph 5-7 1

2 Mode of Delivery Dominguez-Bello M G, 2010 PNAS Mode of Delivery 2

3 Diet Breast feeding: higher abundance of commensals (bifidobacteria and lactobacilli) Formula feeding: higher abundance of pathogens (clostridia and enterobacteriaceae) Jost T 2012 PLoS ONE Human Milk Oligosaccharides Complex non-digestible carbohydrates found in abundance in human milk Zivkovic A, PNAS,

Tremendous energy expenditure Impressive diversity of structures Between women Over time in a given woman Term vs preterm Production preserved in famine Hypothesis: HMOs shape the neonatal microbiota Mechanism: Consumption of HMOs by specific bacteria Bacterial Species (n) HMO Structure 2 FL 3-FL LDFT 3 SL 6 SL E. coli (1) Clostridium (2) Lactobacillus (2) -(1)/+(1) -(1)/+(1) - - -(1)/++(1) Enterobacter (2) Enterococcus (2) -(1)/+(1) -(1)/+(1) Staphylococcus (2) Streptococcus (1) Bacteroides (3) (1)/++(2) -(1)/+(1)/++(1) +(1)/++(2) Bifidobacterium (10) +(1)/++(9) ++ +(1)/++(9) -(2)/+(1)/++(7) -(1)/+(1)/++(8) Data from Yu, ZT, Glycobiology,
