NEW DELHI: Changes in gut microbes could be related with an onset of rheumatoid arthritis, eventually translating into symptoms that can be diagnosed, according to a study.
In individuals who developed the autoimmune condition, researchers found that the most changes, or “instabilities”, in specific strains of gut bacteria involved in inflammation were seen 10 months prior to diagnosis — suggesting that the gut changes could signal a late stage.
An autoimmune disorder is that in which healthy tissues and organs are attacked by the immune system, which normally helps the body fight infection and disease.
