Altered Bacterial-Fungal Interkingdom Networks in the Guts of Ankylosing Spondylitis Patients

Altered Bacterial-Fungal Interkingdom Networks in the Guts of Ankylosing Spondylitis Patients

The human gut is colonized by diverse fungi (mycobiota), and fungi have long been suspected in the pathogenesis of SpA. Our study unraveled a disease-specific interkingdom network alteration in AS, suggesting that fungi, or the interkingdom interactions between bacteria and fungi, may play an essent...
