Microbiome studies in chronic diseases
Despite monumental advances in science over recent decades, infectious diseases remain one of the leading causes of death worldwide. This pressing situation is exacerbated by the rapidly growing trend of antimicrobial resistance, an aging population, and an increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, which are also linked to deteriorating environmental conditions such as air, water, and food quality. Integrated approaches, including the study of the human microbiome, are now essential for investigating infectious diseases and chronic disorders.
Mycobacteria have been killing millions of people for millennia, making the development of new treatments more urgent than ever. Although the genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) have been available for over two decades, many gene functions remain undisclosed, delaying progress toward new therapies. Given that we are exposed to NTM daily through drinking water deemed safe, we will explore the adaptation of NTM to anthropogenic environments to support updated public health guidelines. Additionally, we will continue to investigate the biosynthesis of vital mycobacterial polysaccharides in search of new targets for innovative therapies.
We are also focused on deciphering microbiome signatures in dysbiotic gut ecosystems in neurodegenerative and other chronic diseases, aiming for preventive or bacteriotherapeutic approaches that combine next-generation sequencing (NGS) data with unique microbial culture collections recently created at CNC. In this context, we are interested in identifying the microbial pathways responsible for the biosynthesis of neuroactive metabolites and understanding how they modulate microbiota homeostasis and/or dysbiosis as well as host susceptibility to disease.
