AB1035 INTESTINAL MICROBIOTA COMPOSITION OF ADULT PATIENTS WITH FAMILIAL MEDITERRANEAN FEVER AND HEALTHY CONTROLS (THE RHEUMA-BIOTA STUDY)

Background:Although Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a monogenic disease, microbiota composition may play role in the pathogenesis or phenotypic expression.Objectives:We aim to evaluate the intestinal microbiota composition in patients with FMF and to compare with healthy controls.Methods:In this prospective cohort study, a group of 10 adult patients with FMF and 10 age-appropriate healthy controls, for which there was strict inclusion/exclusion, were enrolled. Fecal samples were stored at -80°C until DNA extraction. A region of the 16S rRNA gene (V3-V4) was selected and sequencing was performed on the Illumina MiSeq platform at the Sequencing and Bioinformatics Service of FISABIO foun…

AB0492 INTESTINAL MICROBIOTA COMPOSITION OF PATIENT’S WITH BEHCET’S DISEASE: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EYE, MUCOCUTANEOUS AND VASCULAR INVOLVEMENT (RHEUMA-BIOTA STUDY)

Background:Recently, it has been shown that changes in microbiota composition play a role in the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic diseases. Changes in oral and intestinal microbiota diversity and composition are suggested in Behcet disease (BD), however there are no study available about the potential gut microbiota changes among different clinical forms of BD.Objectives:The aim of this study was to evaluate the intestinal microbiota composition of patient with BD and healthy controls, and also compare BD patients regarding to their eye, mucocutaneous and vascular involvement.Methods:In this prospective cohort study,27 patients diagnosed with BD and 10 aged and sex matched healthy contr…

The Endobiota Study: Comparison of Vaginal, Cervical and Gut Microbiota Between Women with Stage 3/4 Endometriosis and Healthy Controls

Dysbiosis in the genital tract or gut microbiome can be associated with endometriosis. We sampled vaginal, cervical and gut microbiota from 14 women with histology proven stage 3/4 endometriosis and 14 healthy controls. The V3 and V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene were amplified following the 16S Metagenomic Sequencing Library Preparation. Despite overall similar vaginal, cervical and intestinal microbiota composition between stage 3/4 endometriosis group and controls, we observed differences at genus level. The complete absence of Atopobium in the vaginal and cervical microbiota of the stage 3/4 endometriosis group was noteworthy. In the cervical microbiota, Gardnerella, Streptococcus, Esche…
