Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we compared the fecal microbiota of female patients with AN those of age-matched healthy female controls (n = 21) using the Yakult Intestinal Flora-SCAN based on 16S or 23S rRNA-targeted RT-quantitative PCR technology. AN patients had significantly lower amounts of total bacteria and obligate anaerobes including those from the Clostridium coccoides group, Clostridium leptum subgroup, Bacteroides fragilis group, and Streptococcus than the age-matched healthy women. The detection rate of the Lactobacillus plantarum subgroup was significantly lower in the AN group than in the control group. The AN group had significantly lower acetic and propionic acid concentrations in the feces than the control group. Taken together, these results clearly show the existence of dysbiosis in the gut of AN patients.
