Serum metabolites reflecting gut microbiome alpha diversity predict type 2 diabetes

Serum metabolites reflecting gut microbiome alpha diversity predict type 2 diabetes

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with reduced gut microbiome diversity, although the cause is unclear. Metabolites generated by gut microbes also appear to be causative factors in T2D. We therefore searched for serum metabolites predictive of gut microbiome diversity in 1018 females from TwinsUK...
