Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology drives a global network of gene exchange connecting the human microbiome
Christopher Smillie,Mark Smith,Jonathan Friedman,Otto X. Cordero,Lawrence A. David,Eric J. Alm,Eric J. Alm +6 more
TL;DR: A vast, human-associated network of gene exchange, large enough to directly compare the principal forces shaping HGT is reported, which offers a window into the molecular traits that define ecological niches and insight that is used to uncover sources of antibiotic resistance and identify genes associated with the pathology of meningitis and other diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intra- and Inter-cellular Rewiring of the Human Colon during Ulcerative Colitis

TL;DR: An atlas of 366,650 cells from the colon mucosa of 18 UC patients and 12 healthy individuals is generated, revealing 51 epithelial, stromal, and immune cell subsets, including BEST4+ enterocytes, microfold-like cells, and IL13RA2+IL11+ inflammatory fibroblasts, which are associated with resistance to anti-TNF treatment.
A single-cell survey of the small intestinal epithelium
Adam L. Haber,Moshe Biton,Moshe Biton,Noga Rogel,Rebecca H. Herbst,Rebecca H. Herbst,Karthik Shekhar,Christopher Smillie,Grace Burgin,Toni Delorey,Toni Delorey,Michael R. Howitt,Yarden Katz,Itay Tirosh,Semir Beyaz,Danielle Dionne,Mei Zhang,Raktima Raychowdhury,Wendy S. Garrett,Wendy S. Garrett,Orit Rozenblatt-Rosen,Hai Ning Shi,Ömer H. Yilmaz,Ömer H. Yilmaz,Ramnik J. Xavier,Ramnik J. Xavier,Aviv Regev +26 more
TL;DR: The authors reported profiling of 53,193 individual epithelial cells from the small intestine and organoids of mice, which enabled the identification and characterization of previously unknown subtypes of intestinal epithelial cell and their gene signatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that MHCII+ Lgr5+ ISCs are non-conventional antigen-presenting cells in co-cultures with CD4+ T helper (Th) cells, which orchestrate tissue-wide responses to external signals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unraveling the processes shaping mammalian gut microbiomes over evolutionary time.
Mathieu Groussin,Florent Mazel,Jon G. Sanders,Christopher Smillie,Christopher Smillie,Sébastien Lavergne,Wilfried Thuiller,Eric J. Alm,Eric J. Alm +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that host phylogeny and major dietary shifts have affected the distribution of different gut bacterial lineages and did so on vastly different bacterial phylogenetic resolutions.
