– the composition of the microbiota (collection of microorganisms) of a particular person unique. Different not only microorganisms but also their strains. That is, bifidobacteria, living inside of you, different from mine. In General, the composition of the microbiota is formed by three-year age, and this should ideally stay forever. But depending on the circumstances, such as serious illness, some microorganisms will become more, some less. Moreover, these strains remained unchanged, – says Alexander Suvorov, head of the Department of molecular Microbiology, IEM, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
the Microbiota involved in the digestion of food, including produce hormones that affect hunger, strengthens our immune system, creating special substances that kill pathogenic flora. Finally, bacteria actively influence our emotional state and brain function.
In their study, researchers proved that severe illnesses (including multiple sclerosis, cancer, autism, diabetes and Parkinson’s disease) are accompanied by powerful changes in the microbiota, when actively multiplying “unnecessary” human microorganisms. This lead to a stressful situation, and antibiotics. Starts dysbiosis (disruption of not only bacteria, but also viruses, fungi, protozoa, and other microorganisms).
– If you define the composition of the microbiota of a particular person, to perform the genetic code of microorganisms, to understand what is lacking at the moment, it is possible this lack to be filled. And it is not common to all set of probiotics which are offered in pharmacies and personal. You can prepare the same yogurt, milk sakasu individual lactic acid starter culture made of microorganisms that particular person! – says Suvorov.
According to Suvorov, the methodology used in the clinics of IEM and the University of Mechnikov. Studies are going on in the framework of the grant “Russian scientific Fund”. Three main areas: gastrointestinal, chronic pulmonary and neurodegenerative diseases. Automotice significantly improve the condition of even heavy patients. And revealed an interesting pattern: if help to the patient to remedy the lack of a single strain of microorganisms, it gives a boost to the microbiota to auto fill other niches devastated. That is, the body is always trying to show the indicators of the microbiota to normal, and he just needs help. But, of course, harmonization of the microbiota does not exclude traditional methods of treatment.The plan of scientists is the creation of the Cryobank of the microbiota.
