Patients with Primary and Secondary Bile Duct Stones Harbor Distinct Biliary Microbial Composition and Metabolic Potential

Patients with Primary and Secondary Bile Duct Stones Harbor Distinct Biliary Microbial Composition and Metabolic Potential

IntroductionCholelithiasis has a high incidence worldwide and limited treatment options due to its poorly understood pathogenesis. Furthermore, the role of biliary microbiota in cholelithiasis remains understudied. To address these questions, we performed microbial sequencing from biliary samples fr...
