Associations between gut microbiome and circulating cytokines: a cross-sectional analysis in the FINRISK 2002 population cohort
Taken together, these results show that CRP, MIP-1B, IL-8, and other cytokines are associated with gut microbial diversity and composition, as well as specific taxa. This could lay the groundwork for future experimental studies to assess the causality of these associations.
