Abstract:
In the recent 10 years, many studies have revealed, that a variety of environmental factors can affect the intestinal microbial imbalance, which have a close correlation with many diseases. Infectious diseases are disorders caused by pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, fungi or parasites. According to WHO report in 2012:Each year there were 57 million deaths worldwide, 14.9 million of which die of infectious diseases. And more than 2 billion people have been infected with HBV and 240 million people are chronic infections. In addition, HIV continues to be a major global public health issue. Infectious disease remains a serious threat to the survival of mankind! The widely use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, immunosuppressive drugs, and other new modern treatment technology for these disease have a profound impact on the human microbiota. Here, we focus on the study of interaction between human microbiota and the development and progression of infectious diseases such as frequent emerging infectious diseases, C.difficile infection, HIV infection, and Hepatitis B related liver disease. Hepatitis B related liver disease is a very important infectious disease in China. Appropriate treatment can prevent the development of the major life-threatening complications of chronic liver disease: cirrhosis, acute-on-chronic liver failure, and liver cancer, which can lead to death. Thus, the recent researches on human microbiota had been made much progress. The research on human microbiota has become much more sophisticated and more comprehensive. We proposed “three T” proposal for Infectious diseases: Tool: Based on B/E value or 16S rRNA sequencing to detect gut microbiota dysbiosis should be a routine tool; Target, Keeping homeostasis of human microbiota should be a new medical target; Therapy, Modulation on gut microbiome should be an essential therapy. And I believe that our research focus on the host-microbe interaction and the cause-effect mechanism, which will provide a new therapeutic target and pave the way to understand the human microbiota secret.
