25 26 Parkinson's disease (PD) is a systemic disease clinically defined by the degeneration of 27 dopaminergic neurons in the brain. While alterations in the gut microbiome composition have 28 been reported in PD, their functional consequences remain unclear. Herein, we first analysed 29 the gut microbiome of patients and healthy controls by 16S rRNA gene sequencing of stool 30 samples from the Luxembourg Parkinson's study (n=147 typical PD cases, n=162 controls). 31All individuals underwent detailed clinical assessment, including neurological examinations 32 and neuropsychological tests followed by self-reporting questionnaires. Second, we predicted 33 the potential secretion for 129 microbial metabolites through personalised metabolic modelling 34 using the microbiome data and genome-scale metabolic reconstructions of human gut 35 microbes. Our key results include: 1. eight genera and nine species changed significantly in 36 their relative abundances between PD patients and healthy controls. 2. PD-associated microbial 37 patterns statistically depended on sex, age, BMI, and constipation. The relative abundances of 38Bilophila and Paraprevotella were significantly associated with the Hoehn and Yahr staging 39 after controlling for the disease duration. In contrast, dopaminergic medication had no 40 detectable effect on the PD microbiome composition. 3. Personalised metabolic modelling of 41 the gut microbiomes revealed PD-associated metabolic patterns in secretion potential of nine 42 microbial metabolites in PD, including increased methionine and cysteinylglycine. The 43 microbial pantothenic acid production potential was linked to the presence of specific non-44 motor symptoms and attributed to individual bacteria, such as Akkermansia muciniphila and 45 Bilophila wardswarthia. Our results suggest that PD-associated alterations of gut microbiome 46 could translate into functional differences affecting host metabolism and disease phenotype. 47
