Autoimmune diseases are a group of illnesses where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. Recent research suggests that the gut microbiota, the diverse community of microorganisms residing in the gastrointestinal tract, may play a crucial role in the development and progression of autoimmune diseases. Understanding this relationship can lead to new insights for potential therapeutic interventions to manage and treat autoimmune conditions.

Project Overview

The human gut microbiota comprises trillions of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, that play a crucial role in shaping the host’s immune system and overall health. Recent research has highlighted the potential involvement of gut microbiota in the development and progression of autoimmune diseases, where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its tissues.

This project aims to investigate the intricate relationship between gut microbiota and autoimmune diseases to understand the underlying mechanisms involved. By studying the composition and function of gut microbiota in individuals with autoimmune diseases, we can potentially identify microbial markers or dysbiosis patterns that contribute to disease onset and progression.

The project will involve collecting stool samples from both healthy individuals and patients diagnosed with autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and type 1 diabetes. High-throughput sequencing techniques will be used to analyze the microbial communities present in the samples, allowing us to compare the diversity and abundance of gut microbiota between the two groups.

In addition to microbial profiling, functional assays will be conducted to explore how specific microbial species or metabolites modulate the immune response and inflammatory processes associated with autoimmune diseases. By elucidating these interactions, we hope to uncover potential therapeutic targets for interventions that can manipulate the gut microbiota to prevent or treat autoimmune diseases.

Overall, this project aims to advance our understanding of the role of gut microbiota in autoimmune diseases and pave the way for personalized approaches to diagnosis and treatment that target the microbiome. The findings from this research could have significant implications for the field of autoimmunity and open up new avenues for microbiota-based interventions in the management of these complex and debilitating conditions.
