JF - Herald of Pancreatic Club JA - BCP VL - 31 IS - 2 SE - NOT ONLY PANCREATOLOGY DO - 10.33149/vkp.2016.02.10 UR - https://vkp.org.ua/index.php/journal/article/view/22 AB - The article highlights the problem of the correlation between human intestinal microbiome and metabolic syndrome. Changes in bacterial intestinal proportions upon obesity captured the attention of scientists around the world, especially in relation to their effect on the metabolism. Increasing proportion of Firmicutes and Actinobacteria and decrease of Bacteroidetes are associated with increased levels of serum lipopolysaccharides, insulin resistance, weight gain, and other co-morbid manifestations of the metabolic syndrome. The mechanisms, underlying this interdisciplinary problem, are actively studied to optimize the prevention and treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes. ER -
