Gut microbiota of healthy Asians and their discriminative features revealed by metagenomics approach
The association between gut microbiota and health has become a forefront of research due to the complex symbiotic relationship between the gut microbiota and the human host. This study was conducted to elucidate the microbial architecture of the gut microbiota in Asian population, emphasizing on healthy Malaysians. We have conducted a comparative study using the whole metagenomics approach on the gut microbiota of Malaysians against other countries namely Thailand, India, and China, and represented the unique composition of the gut microbiota in Malaysian healthy individuals.
