Gut Microbiota Composition in Long-Remission Ulcerative Colitis is Close to a Healthy Gut Microbiota
Abstract
Herrera-deGuise C, Varela E, Sarrabayrouse G, et al. Gut Microbiota Composition in Long-Remission Ulcerative Colitis is Close to a Healthy Gut Microbiota. Inflamm Bowel Dis. 2023;29(9):1362-1369. doi:10.1093/ibd/izad058
"Microbiome studies report low gut microbial richness and diversity in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. We explored whether UC patients who reach long-term clinical, endoscopic, and histological remission show a gut microbial ecosystem that is similar to healthy individuals."
"UC patients who achieve long-term remission show evidence of substantial recovery of the gut microbial ecosystem in terms of diversity and composition."
