Identifying the location-dependent adipose tissue bacterial DNA signatures in obese patients that predict body weight loss.

ABSTRACT: Recent sets of evidence have described profiles of 16S rDNA sequences in host tissues, notably in fat pads that are significantly overrepresented and can serve as signatures of metabolic disease. However, these recent and original observations need to be further detailed and functionally defined. Here, using state-of-the-art targeted DNA sequencing and discriminant predictive approaches, we describe, from the longitudinal FLORINASH cohort of patients who underwent bariatric surgery, visceral, and subcutaneous fat pad-specific bacterial 16SrRNA signatures. The corresponding Porphyromonadaceae, Campylobacteraceae, Prevotellaceae, Actimomycetaceae, Veillonellaceae, Anaerivoracaceae, Fusobacteriaceae, and the Clostridium family XI 16SrRNA
