- Description
To investigate the relationship between gut microbiome dysbiosis and translocation of bacteria into the blood during SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans, researchers obtained blood culture and stool samples from positive COVID-19 patients who were seen at NYU Langone Health and Yale New Haven Hospital. 67 stool samples were obtained from 60 patients at NYU Langone Health and 63 samples were obtained from...

- Description
Periodontal disease (PD) is induced by a bacterial dysbiosis in the oral cavity that stimulates inflammation and bone loss. This study showed elevation of succinate in PD, which aggravates the disease through the succinate receptor (SUCNR1). Metabolomics assay compared the succinate level in the subgingival plaque of patients with PD. RNAscope and immunofluorescence assays were conducted to validate...

- Description
To investigate the causal relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infection and gut microbiome dysbiosis, researchers inoculated K18-hACE2 male mice with one of four doses (10, 100, 1000, and 104 PFU) of SARS-CoV-2 or mock treatment diluted in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Fecal samples were collected from mice daily for microbiome analyses from day 0 (before infection) until sacrifice on days 5–7. Upon...
