About
The investigators will compare 16sRDNA profile in cases and controls in order to identify bacteria associated with metabolic diseases that reside both in intestinal crypts and in blood.
Full description
Experimental evidence suggests that bacterial translocation from gut to tissue could be an initial step leading to diabetes. To test this hypothesis, a bacterial component that is highly conserved between different species of bacteria, the 16S rDNA gene will be analysed both in intestinal crypt and in blood in patients with type 2 diabetes, obese patients and control.
