Background: An imbalance in gut microbiota is implicated in several pathological conditions, including allergic diseases. This study investigates the association between gut microbiota composition and sensitization to two inhaled antigens. Methods: The study comprised 1109 local residents who had participated in the Iwaki Health Promotion Project in 2016. Blood samples were analyzed for levels of antigen-specific IgE against Japanese cedar pollen (JCP) and house dust (HD1). Fecal samples were analyzed for bacterial 16S rRNA (ribosomal ribonucleic acid) using next generation sequencing. The percent composition of gut microbes was compared between patients sensitized and unsensitized group for JCP and HD1 to determine whether the rate of sensitization to inhaled antigens associates with specific bacterial orders composing the gut microbiota. Results: In participants aged 20–49 years, the percent composition of Bacteroidales was significantly higher among participants sensitized to JCP than in those unsensitized. The percent composition of Lactobacillales was significantly higher in participants unsensitized to HD group than in those sensitized to that antigen. In addition, participants with low Bacteroidales and high Bifidobacteriales or Lactobacillales has low sensitization rates to HD compared with high Bacteroidales and low Bifidobacteriales or Lactobacillales. Conclusions: The presence of bacteria of order Lactobacillales, Bifidobacteriales, and Bacteroidales in the gut microbiota may affect sensitization to inhaled allergens. |
