Identification of an oral microbiota signature associated with an impaired orosensory perception of lipids in insulin-resistant patients.

Collectively, these data show that the diabetic patients with defective fatty taste detection are characterized by a specific microbiota metabolism at the circumvallate papillae levels, this occurrence seeming amplified by drugs commonly used to counteract the damaging metabolic effects of T2D. Trial registration for original previous studies: ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT02028975.
