RESUMEN
The human body contains thousands of metabolites derived from mammalian cells, the microbiota, food, and medical drugs. Many bioactive metabolites act through the engagement of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs); however, technological limitations constrain current explorations of metabolite-GPCR interactions. Here, we developed a highly multiplexed screening technology called PRESTO-Salsa that enables simultaneous assessment of nearly all conventional GPCRs (>300 receptors) in a single well of a 96-well plate. Using PRESTO-Salsa, we screened 1,041 human-associated metabolites against the GPCRome and uncovered previously unreported endogenous, exogenous, and microbial GPCR agonists. Next, we leveraged PRESTO-Salsa to generate an atlas of microbiome-GPCR interactions across 435 human microbiome strains from multiple body sites, revealing conserved patterns of cross-tissue GPCR engagement and activation of CD97/ADGRE5 by the Porphyromonas gingivalis protease gingipain K. These studies thus establish a highly multiplexed bioactivity screening technology and expose a diverse landscape of human, diet, drug, and microbiota metabolome-GPCRome interactions.

Mucosal surfaces like those present in the lung, gut, and mouth interface with distinct external environments. These mucosal gateways are not only portals of entry for potential pathogens but also homes to microbial communities that impact host health. Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) is the single most abundant acquired immune component secreted onto mucosal surfaces and, via the process of immune exclusion, shapes the architecture of these microbiomes. Not all microorganisms at mucosal surfaces are targeted by SIgA; therefore, a better understanding of the SIgA-coated fraction may identify the microbial constituents that stimulate host immune responses in the context of health and disease. Chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes are associated with altered microbial communities (dysbiosis) that in turn affect immune-mediated homeostasis. 16S rRNA gene sequencing of SIgA-coated/uncoated bacteria (IgA-Biome) was conducted on stool and saliva samples of normoglycemic participants and individuals with prediabetes or diabetes (n = 8/group). These analyses demonstrated shifts in relative abundance in the IgA-Biome profiles between normoglycemic, prediabetic, or diabetic samples distinct from that of the overall microbiome. Differences in IgA-Biome alpha diversity were apparent for both stool and saliva, while overarching bacterial community differences (beta diversity) were also observed in saliva. These data suggest that IgA-Biome analyses can be used to identify novel microbial signatures associated with diabetes and support the need for further studies exploring these communities. Ultimately, an understanding of the IgA-Biome may promote the development of novel strategies to restructure the microbiome as a means of preventing or treating diseases associated with dysbiosis at mucosal surfaces.
