Life-course socioeconomic status and the gut microbiome in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL)

Abstract Body (Do not enter title and authors here): Introduction: Socioeconomic status (SES) in childhood and beyond may influence the gut microbiome (GMB), with implications for disease risk. Studies evaluating the relationship between life-course SES and the gut microbiome (GMB) are sparse, particularly among Hispanic/Latino individuals, who have a high prevalence of low SES.
Hypothesis: Low life-course SES indicators are associated with less diversity and overall composition of the gut microbiome in Hispanic/Latino adults.
Methods: The Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL) is a multi-site population-based cohort study conducted in the U.S. We examined 2540 participants (18 to 74 years) with SES and gut microbiome information. Childhood SES (n=2274) and adult SES (n=2412) were used as SES indicators. We used the highest education achieved by the father or mother and classified it as a lower (Results: Childhood and adult SES were not associated with the Shannon diversity index. Childhood and adult SES were associated with the overall gut microbiome composition; however, childhood SES explained more the gut microbiome variance than adult SES. Lower childhood SES was associated with 38 species and lower adult SES with 5 species. A lower childhood and adult SES were associated with a lower abundance of species from genus Bacteroides.
Conclusion: A lower childhood SES was associated with an altered GMB composition in U.S. Hispanic/Latino adults. Early-life SES may have long-term effects on GMB composition, underscoring another biological mechanism linking early childhood factors to adulthood disease.
