Associations between the gut microbiota and host immune markers in pediatric multiple sclerosis and controls

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: As little is known of association(s) between gut microbiota profiles and host immunological markers, we explored these in children with and without multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS: T-cell intracellular cytokine production evaluated by flow cytometry. Associations between microbiota diversity, phylum-level abundances and immune markers were explored using Pearson's correlation and adjusted linear...
