Exploring <i>Blastocystis</i> and Gut Health: A Pilot Investigation of Microbiome and Metabolomic Signatures in a UK Cohort

2025-08-22

Abstract excerpt

Blastocystis is a common protistan coloniser of the human gut, yet its role in health and disease remains unclear. While some studies have linked it to gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, growing evidence suggests an association with microbial diversity and gut health. This pilot study investigated the prevalence, subtype distribution, and ecological associations of Blastocystis in South East England, and explored its...
