The Relationship Between Microbiota and Coronary Ectasia

Introduction: It is now known that the microbiota is far beyond the microbial communities living in certain parts of our body and functions like a metabolic organ. In addition, the microbiota, through its metabolites, is involved in the pathophysiology or progression of a wide range of diseases, from atherosclerotic diseases to metabolic diseases and even neurological diseases. Among these metabolites, trimethylamine n-oxide metabolite has been shown to be particularly effective on atherosclerotic heart diseases.
