Abstract
Obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are three common metabolic diseases with high prevalence worldwide. Emerging evidence suggests that gut dysbiosis may influence the development of metabolic diseases, in which gut fungal microbiome (mycobiome) is actively involved. In this review, we summarize the studies exploring the composition changes of gut mycobiome in metabolic diseases and mechanisms by which fungi affect the development of metabolic diseases. The current mycobiome-based therapies, including probiotic fungi, fungal products, anti-fungal agents and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), and their implication in treating metabolic diseases are discussed. We highlight the unique role of gut mycobiome in metabolic diseases, providing perspectives for future research on gut mycobiome in metabolic diseases.
期刊介绍:
Biomedical Journal publishes 6 peer-reviewed issues per year in all fields of clinical and biomedical sciences for an internationally diverse authorship. Unlike most open access journals, which are free to readers but not authors, Biomedical Journal does not charge for subscription, submission, processing or publication of manuscripts, nor for color reproduction of photographs.
Clinical studies, accounts of clinical trials, biomarker studies, and characterization of human pathogens are within the scope of the journal, as well as basic studies in model species such as Escherichia coli, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, and Mus musculus revealing the function of molecules, cells, and tissues relevant for human health. However, articles on other species can be published if they contribute to our understanding of basic mechanisms of biology.
A highly-cited international editorial board assures timely publication of manuscripts. Reviews on recent progress in biomedical sciences are commissioned by the editors.
