title: [Gut microflora in liver and intestinal diseases: a revolution in the making].
abstract: After the era of classical bacteriology, the exploratory techniques of the gut microbiota have been revolutionized by the sequencing of microbial 16S rRNA. The data obtained are substantial and have led us to formulate novel hypotheses in multiple domains of medicine. This article briefly outlines these hypotheses with particular regard to the fields of steatohepatitis and inflammatory bowel diseases.
