Increasing evidence indicates that the gut microbiome (GM) plays an important role in the etiology of dyslipidemia. To date, however, no in depth characterization of the associations between GM and its metabolic attributes with deep profiling of lipoproteins distributions (LPD) among healthy individuals has been conducted. To determine associations and contributions of GM composition and its cofactors with distribution profiles of lipoprotein subfractions, we studied blood plasma LPD, fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) and GM of 262 healthy Danish subjects aged 19-89 years. Stratification of LPD segregated subjects into three clusters of profiles that reflected differences in the lipoprotein subclasses, corresponded well with limits of recommended levels of main lipoprotein fractions and were largely explained by host characteristics such as age and body mass index. Higher levels of HDL, particularly driven by large subfractions (HDL2a and HDL2b), were associated with a higher relative abundance of Ruminococcaceae and Christensenellaceae. Increasing levels of total cholesterol and LDL, which were primarily associated with large 1 and 2 subclasses, were positively associated with Lachnospiraceae and Coriobacteriaceae, and negatively with Bacteroidaceae and Bifidobacteriaceae. Metagenome sequencing showed a higher abundance of genes involved in the biosynthesis of multiple B-vitamins and SCFA metabolism among subjects with healthier LPD profiles. Metagenomic assembled genomes (MAGs) affiliated mainly to Eggerthellaceae and Clostridiales were identified as the contributors of these genes and whose relative abundance correlated positively with larger subfractions of HDL. The results of this study demonstrate that remarkable differences in composition and metabolic traits of the GM are associated with variations in LPD among healthy subjects. Findings from this study provide evidence for GM considerations in future research aiming to shade light on mechanisms of the GM - dyslipidemia axis.
