Methotrexate is a chemotherapeutic agent widely used to treat autoimmune diseases and malignancies. The modulation of methotrexate by the gut microbiome can vary widely between individuals. This study performed metabolomics and an Ex-vivo experiment by collecting fecal samples from responders and non-responders to MTX. Two results were found: a) MTX metabolites are differing between responder and non-responder. b)Microbiome varies between the 2 groups. |
