Digestive system biomarkers

The digestive system is the system responsible for transforming carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins found in food into simpler molecules, which are then transported throughout the body. It is also home to the intestinal microbiota, a collection of microorganisms that coexist in the digestive tract.

Various disorders can affect the digestive system, its proper functioning, and its relationship with the microbiota. These conditions can be both acute and chronic, and sometimes they can lead to or be part of more complex pathologies. Some of these disorders may include dyspepsia, inflammatory bowel diseases, or even malignant tumors. Having specific biomarkers that provide information about the state of the digestive system is highly valuable. Biomarkers can vary in nature, such as antibodies, small immunological molecules, fecal biomarkers, and genetic biomarkers (non-coding RNAs).
