Insights from metagenomics into gut microbiome associated with acute coronary syndrome therapy.

ABSTRACT: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a predominant cause of mortality, and the prompt and precise identification of this condition is crucial to minimize its impact. Recent research indicates that gut microbiota is associated with the onset, progression, and treatment of ACS. To investigate its role, we sequenced the gut microbiota of 38 ACS patients before and after percutaneous coronary intervention and statin therapy at three time points, examining differential species and metabolic pathways. We observed a decrease in the abundance of Parabacteroides, Escherichia, and Blautia in patients after treatment and an increase in the abundance of Gemalla, Klebsiella variicola, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and others. Two pathways related to sugar degradation were
