Comprehensive Analysis of the Relationships Between the Gut Microbiota and Fecal Metabolome in Individuals With Primary Sjogren’s Syndrome by 16S rRNA Sequencing and LC–MS-Based Metabolomics

Abstract excerpt

The gut microbiota has been associated with primary Sjogren’s syndrome (pSS), yet the biological implications of these associations are often elusive. We analyzed the fecal microbiota through 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing in 30 patients with pSS and 20 healthy controls (HCs); At the same time, the fecal metabolome was characterized by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. In...
