1. Overall project description


1.1 Summary

Studies suggest that the intestinal microbiome modulates the risk of several chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, allergy, cardiovascular disease, and colorectal cancer (CRC). Dietary factors are related to chronic disease risk, and they have been suggested to modulate the composition and function of the gut microbiome. However, detailed knowledge on the relationship of diet, the microbiome, and chronic disease risk is still limited.



The overarching aim of the knowledge platform is to foster studies on the microbiome, nutrition and health by  assembling available information in the field of microbiome research in food, nutrition and health in a comprehensive way, which also includes other disciplines (e.g. food science, metabolomics) that are relevant in the context of microbiome research. The goal is to make this information findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) to the scientific community and to link and provide in-depth information to various stakeholders.


 

Through these efforts a network of transnational and multidisciplinary collaboration will emerge, that will further develop and increase the impact of microbiome research in human health. Urgent areas of research in this KP were identified to be the roles of microbiome in early infancy, during ageing and in subclinical and clinically manifest disease.

1.2 Highlights

We identified 23 observational studies on nutrition and microbiome from INTIMIC (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34579168/) that are available for future joint analyses (use case on gut microbiome composition in obese versus non-obese including data from 8 observational studies ongoing) as well that in a systematic review on gut microbiome composition in obese versus non-obese, we found that a substantial proportion of the 32 included cross-sectional studies found lower diversity and differences in gut microbiome composition in obese versus non-obese adults, but the observed heterogeneity across studies precludes clear answers (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35010887/).
