Differences in Gut Microbiota Composition and Predicted Metabolic Functions: a Pilot Study of Adolescents with Normal Weight and Obesity.

Understanding the principles underlying the stability and sustainability of the gut microbiome of adolescents with normal weight and obesity will make it possible to implement a personalized approach to the correction of metabolic disorders. The article presents the results of a pilot study of the diversity and metabolic potential of the gut microbiome in adolescents with normal body weight and obesity. Biological material was studied using metagenomic sequencing of the V3-V4 variable regions of the 16S rRNA gene.

The relationship between the composition of the microbiota and functional intestinal disorders in obese adolescents.

Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) in children and adolescents are one of the most common pathologies of the digestive tract. The aim of the study was to study the structure of the colon microbiota in obese adolescents and to establish its relationship with the clinical manifestations of the disease FGIDs. The study included 20 adolescents aged 11-17 years.

Metasequencing of V3-V4 Variable Regions of 16S rRNA Gene in Opportunistic Microbiota and Gut Biocenosis in Obese Adolescents.

Opportunistic microorganisms in the gut biocenosis were studied in adolescents with normal body weight and obesity (patients consulted at the Clinical Department of Research Center of Family Health and Human Reproduction Problems). The biological material was studied by standard bacteriological methods, representatives of Enterobacteriaceae family were also characterized using metagenomic sequencing of V3-V4 variable regions of 16S gene rRNA. Gut microbiota of obese adolescents was unbalanced and was characterized by low levels of bifido- and lactoflora representatives, a spectrum of E.

Metagenomic 16S rDNA amplicon datasets from adolescents with normal weight, obesity, and obesity with irritable bowel syndrome from Eastern Siberia, Russia.

Childhood obesity and its consequences are a significant public health problem worldwide. Gut microbiota has a potential role in the development of. In the current datasets, we present 16S rDNA amplicon metasequencing of the gut microbiome of adolescents with normal weight, obesity, and obesity with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) carried out using the Illumine platform.
