  • Publication number: 20140186829
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an in vitro method, for predicting a risk of onset of type 2 diabetes in a subject, which method comprises the steps of: a) measuring the concentration of bacterial 16S rDNA in a biological sample of said subject; and b) comparing said measured concentration of bacterial 16S rDNA to a threshold level; wherein a measured concentration of bacterial 16S rDNA higher than the threshold level is indicative of an increased risk of onset of type 2 diabetes in the subject, and a measured concentration of bacterial 16S rDNA lower than the threshold level is indicative of a decreased risk of onset of type 2 diabetes in the subject.
