To what extent do host genetics control the composition of the gut microbiome? Studies comparing the gut microbiota in human twins and across inbred mouse lines have yielded …
The gut microbiome plays a significant role in health and disease, and there is mounting evidence indicating that the microbial composition is regulated in part by host genetics …
To study the effect of host genetics on gut microbiome composition, the MiBioGen consortium curated and analyzed genome-wide genotypes and 16S fecal microbiome data …
The human gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem that is involved in its host's metabolism, immunity and health. Although interindividual variations in gut microbial composition are …
Recent studies in human populations and mouse models reveal notable congruences in gut microbial taxa whose abundances are partly regulated by host genotype. Host genes …
Intestinal microbiota is known to be important in health and disease. Its composition is influenced by both environmental and host factors. Few large-scale studies have evaluated …
Human genetic variation affects the gut microbiota through a complex combination of environmental and host factors. Here we characterize genetic variations associated with …
The mammalian gut is colonized by trillions of microorganisms collectively called the microbiome. It is increasingly clear that this microbiome has a critical role of in many aspects …
Background The composition of bacteria in and on the human body varies widely across human individuals, and has been associated with multiple health conditions. While microbial …
