Microbiota transplantation

Microbiota refers to a collection of living microorganisms, including bacteria, yeasts, and viruses, that coexist in various sites of the human body. Microbiota can perform multiple functions in the body, which have an essential effect on human health and homeostasis. For example, the microbiota can digest polysaccharides, produce vitamins, modulate the immune system, and protect the body against pathogens. Various factors can occasionally alter the microbiota population in the human body, a condition known as dysbiosis. Dysbiosis can disrupt the homeostasis of a person's body and cause disease. Recent years have witnessed efforts to restore the microbiota population of an individual's body to its original state and eradicate dysbiosis through microbiota transplantation. The noteworthy point is that different methods such as fecal microbiota transplantation, vaginal microbiota transplantation (VMT), skin microbiota transplantation (SMT), oral microbiota transplantation (OMT), washed microbiota transplantation (WMT), and sinonasal microbiota transplantation (SiMT) are used for microbiota transplantation (MT). According to the results of studies and the usefulness of MT in improving a person's health, the purpose of this study is to investigate different methods of MT to eliminate dysbiosis.
