Our Consensus statement on #microbiome testing in clinical practice is out in @LancetGastroHep! authors.elsevier.com/a/1kDP5… Here we recommend how to standardise the framework for test release (indications, pre-testing protocols, sequencing & analysis, result reporting). A thread🧵⬇️

Amazing meeting at the Paris Immuno-Oncology Conference 2024! So much food for thought from top leaders in microbiome and immunology: @EranElinav, @derosa__lisa, @nsegata, @WeersmaLab, and more. Honored to present our latest work published in @NatImmunol with @julienCMarie1.

The gut microbiome acetyltransferase genes were involved in the metabolism of 5-ASA in IBD. However, new findings from @WeersmaLab et al. didn't replicate the original findings: gut.bmj.com/content/early/20…

Exploring the previously reported gut #microbiome acetyltransferase genes involved in metabolism of 5-ASA in #ibd we could not replicate the original findings from @NatureMedicine in our Dutch 1000IBD cohort. More work needed. @GroMicrobiome gut.bmj.com/content/early/20…
