Research Article: The visceral adipose tissue bacterial microbiota provides a signature of obesity based on inferred metagenomic functions
Abstract:
Metabolic inflammation mediated obesity requires bacterial molecules to trigger immune and adipose cells leading to inflammation and adipose depot development. In addition to the well-established gut microbiota dysbiosis, a leaky gut has been identified in patients with obesity and animal models, characterized by the presence of a tissue microbiota in the adipose fat pads.
