Baseline gut microbiota and metabolome predict durable immunogenicity to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
The role of gut microbiota in modulating the durability of COVID-19 vaccine immunity is yet to be characterised. In this cohort study, we collected blood and stool samples of 121 BNT162b2 and 40 CoronaVac vaccinees at baseline, 1 month, and 6 months post

Multi-kingdom gut microbiota analyses define COVID-19 severity and post-acute COVID-19 syndrome

Nature Communications, 2022
Here, by performing an integrative multi-omics analysis coupled to clinical features of COVID-19 patients prospectively followed for up to 6 month, the authors identify specific gut microbiome patterns associated with disease severity and development of ...

Prevotella species in the human gut is primarily comprised of Prevotella copri, Prevotella stercorea and related lineages

Scientific Reports, 2022
Prevotella species in the human gut microbiome are primarily comprised of Prevotella copri, and its diversity and function were recently investigated in detail. Much less is known about other Prevotella species in the human gut.
