Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a multifactorial disease, and studies have implicated the role of gut microbiota in its pathogenesis. However, characterization of microbiome dysbiosis and associated microbial-derived metabolomic profiles across AMD stages remains unknown. In this pilot study, we explored how gut microbiome composition and gut-derived metabolites differ in AMD. Methods: Our...
