Differences in gut microbiota and its metabolic function among different fasting plasma glucose groups in Mongolian population of China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Many studies reported the association between gut microbiota and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), but it is still unclear which bacterial genus plays a key role and how the metabolic function of gut microbiota changes in the occurrence and development of T2D. Besides, there is a high diabetic prevalence in Mongolian population, which may be partly affected by their high calorie diet. This study identified the main bacterial genus influencing T2D in Mongolian population, and analyzed the changes of metabolic function of gut microbiome. The association between dietary factors and the relative abundance of main bacterial genus and its metabolic function was also studied.

Methods

Dietary surveys and gut microbiota test were performed on 24 Mongolian volunteers that wer
