(Medical Xpress)—A team made up of researchers from Sweden and Denmark has found evidence of a possible link between gut metagenome and Type 2 diabetes. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the team describes how they compared the faecal metagenome of 145 European women with varying degrees of glucose intolerance against healthy individuals. In so doing, they found noticeable differences that suggest gut metagenomes might be a marker for Type 2 diabetes.
