Discovery of robust and highly specific microbiome signatures of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with a global prevalence of 30% is multifactorial and the involvement of gut bacteria has been recently proposed. However, finding robust bacterial signatures of NAFLD has been a great challenge, mainly due to its co-occurrence with other metabolic diseases. RESULTS: Here, we collected public metagenomic data and integrated the taxonomy...
