Résumé
Gut microbiota is considered as the cornerstone of maintaining the health of human host, because it not only helps to obtain nutrition and energy from the food, but also regulates the energy metabolism through the metabolites produced, which plays an important role in the occurrence and development of various metabolic diseases. In recent years, with the development of science and technology, hypoglycemic treatment has been gradually promoted, safer and more efficient hypoglycemic drugs have been emerging, including sulfonylureas, biguanides, glinides, α-glucosidase inhibitors, dipeptidyl peptidase Ⅳ inhibitors, glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists, sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and various types of insulin preparations. A large number of studies have proved that intestinal flora may be one of the targets for hypoglycemic drugs to control blood glucose. In this article, we aim to review the effects of hypoglycemic drugs on the composition of intestinal flora and the regulation of nutrition and energy metabolism, and provide reference for future researches on mechanism and target of new antidiabetic drugs.
Résumé
Objective To explore the difference of gut microbiota between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and non-diabetic population in Beijing. Methods 83 T2DM patients were selected as T2DM group and 64 non-diabetic subjects were selected as control group. Fecal samples were collected from all the subjects. The intestinal flora was detected by metagenome sequencing technology. Results 11 bacterialphyla were detec-ted in the two groups, there were significant differences in species diversity of Actinobacteria (P=0. 013), Firmicutes (P=0. 005), Fusobacteria (P=0. 001), Proteobacteria (P<0. 001) between the two groups. Actinobacteria, Fusobacteria and Proteobacteria were all enriched in the T2DM group, Firmicutes were enriched in the control group. 152 bacterial genera were detected in the two groups with 31 bacterial genera ofsignificant differences. In T2DM group, the levels of Roseburia, Eubacterium and Faecalibacterium decreased, while the levels of Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus and Escherichia increased. Conclusion There are significant differ-ences in the composition of gut microbiota between T2DM patients and non-diabetic population. Regulation of gut microbiota in T2DM patients may be helpful to improve the condition of T2DM.
