TL;DR
This study shows that gut microbiota changes progressively with increasing type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk based on family history, even before T2D onset.
Contribution
The study reveals a gradual microbiome shift linked to T2D risk based on family history, suggesting potential early indicators for T2D.
Findings
Gut microbiota shifts progressively with T2D risk based on family history, converging toward T2D profiles.
Increased abundance of Prevotella copri and bacteria linked to BCAA, LPS, and acetate production were observed.
Dietary factors like sweet product intake and mineral ratios influence microbiota patterns in T2D risk groups.
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a major global health issue, with growing evidence linking it to gut microbiome changes. However, whether these alterations precede T2D onset and act as predictors, risk factors, or contributors remains unclear. This study analyzed the gut microbiota of 192 individuals from the French NutriNet-Santé cohort, divided into four groups: non-T2D adults with no (n = 47), one (n = 48), or two (n = 51) T2D-affected parents, and T2D-affected adults (n = 46). A progressive microbiota shift was observed in non-T2D groups based on parental history, converging toward the T2D profile. Changes included altered enterotype distribution, increased oral-associated species, disrupted ecological networks, and a shift in Gram-positive-to-negative ratios. Notably, Prevotella copri abundance increased, alongside bacteria potentially enhancing branched-chain amino acid (BCAA),…
