EFFECT OF GLUTEN-FREE DIET ON THE DUODENAL AND FAECAL MICROBIOTA OF CELIAC CHILDREN

摘要

As shown by the integrated microbiology and metabolome approach, the GFD lasting at least two years did not completely restore the microbiota and, consequently, the metabolome of CD children. Some molecules (e.g., ethyl-acetate and octyl-acetate, some short chain fatty acids and free amino acids, and glutamine) seems to be metabolic signatures of CD.
