ABSTRACT
Bile microecology changes play an important role in the occurrence and development of choledocholithiasis. At present, there is no clear report on the difference of bile microecology between asymptomatic patients with gallbladder polyps and choledocholithiasis. This study compared bile microecology between gallbladder polyp patients and patients with choledocholithiasis to identify risk factors for primary choledocholithiasis. This study was conducted in 3 hospitals in different regions of China. Bile samples from 26 patients with gallbladder polyps and 31 patients with choledocholithiasis were collected by laparoscopic cholecystectomy and endoscopic retrograde choledocholithiasis cholangiography (ERCP), respectively. The collected samples were used for 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry analysis. The α-diversity of bile microecological colonies was similar between gallbladder polyp and choledocholithiasis, but the ß-diversity was different. Firmicutes, Proteobacteri, Bacteroidota and Actinobacteriota are the most common phyla in the gallbladder polyp group and choledocholithiasis group. However, compared with the gallbladder polyp patients, the abundance of Actinobacteriota has significantly lower in the choledocholithiasis group. At the genera level, the abundance of a variety of bacteria varies between the two groups, and Enterococcus was significantly elevated in choledocholithiasis group. In addition, bile biofilm formation-Pseudomonas aeruginosa was more metabolically active in the choledocholithiasis group, which was closely related to stone formation. The analysis of metabolites showed that a variety of metabolites decreased in the choledocholithiasis group, and the concentration of beta-muricholic acid decreased most significantly. For the first time, our study compared the bile of gallbladder polyp patients with patients with choledocholithiasis, and suggested that the change in the abundance of Actinobacteriota and Enterococcus were closely related to choledocholithiasis. The role of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm in the formation of choledocholithiasis was discovered for the first time, and some prevention schemes for choledocholithiasis were discussed, which has important biological and medical significance.
