Abstract
Celiac disease is a multifactorial autoimmune enteropathy triggered by ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. The increase of incidence in celiac disease suggests that additional environmental factors other than gluten may contribute to its onset and development. While intestinal dysbiosis has already been associated with celiac disease, the role that the blood microbiome plays in the loss of tolerance to gluten is unknown. In this study we aimed at evaluating weather celiac patients are characterized by alterations in the blood microbiome and how these changes may relate to the intestinal microbiome composition and, ultimately, to the loss of tolerance to gluten. Our data highlight alterations in the blood microbiome composition and taxonomic diversity in celiac patients as compared to healthy subjects. Although preliminary, these findings suggest that changes in the blood microbiome may contribute to the pathogenesis of celiac disease and open the possibility of new therapeutic and diagnostic tools for celiac patients.
期刊介绍:
The innumerable microbes living in and on our bodies are known to affect human wellbeing, but our knowledge of their role is still at the very early stages of understanding. Human Microbiome is a new open access journal dedicated to research on the impact of the microbiome on human health and disease. The journal will publish original research, reviews, comments, human microbe descriptions and genome, and letters. Topics covered will include: the repertoire of human-associated microbes, therapeutic intervention, pathophysiology, experimental models, physiological, geographical, and pathological changes, and technical reports; genomic, metabolomic, transcriptomic, and culturomic approaches are welcome.
