Composition and Structure of Gut Microbiome in Adolescents with Obesity and Different Breastfeeding Duration

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Gut microbiome of adolescents with obesity and different duration of breastfeeding was analyzed by metagenomic analysis of V3-V4 variable domains of the 16S rRNA gene. In subgroup with breastfeeding duration <3 months, intrapopulation structure of gut microbiome by alpha diversity indices was similar in adolescents with obesity and normal body weight. The decrease in phylotype abundance in the structure of communities was associated only with obesity, while dysbiotic state persisted in both lean and overweight adolescents, which confirmed the effect of breastfeeding duration on stability of gut microbiome.
