Summary: | The article provides a review of contemporary literature, which generalizes experimental and clinical data on the role of gut microbiota in atherosclerosis development. Gut microflora can be named a marker of the macroorganism condition, reacting on age-related, physiological, dietic, climatogeoraphic factors with its changes of qualitative and quantitative compounds. It was shown that L-carnitine and choline being received with food, are utilized by microflora to synthetize trimethylamine, which then rapidly oxydized by flavinmonooxygenase of liver to trimethylamin-N-oxide, that causes atherosclerosis development and increases risk of cardiovscular diseases. |
