High relative abundance of firmicutes and increased TNF-α levels correlate with obesity in children

1 Sept 2017

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation among pro- or anti-inflammatory cytokines and the two main gut microbiota phyla in obese children. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Anthropometric data were obtained from 890 children under 14 years old to determine the degree of obesity. Serum cytokine concentration was measured by ELISA. Relative abundance of gut microbiota in feces was evaluated by quantitative RealTime PCR...
