New therapeutic approaches based on modulation of the intestinal microbiota to correct dysbiosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.

2026Open accessIbn Tofail University

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by insulin resistance and reduced insulin production in pancreatic cells. Conventional treatment of type 2 diabetes relies on hypoglycemic drugs, physical activity and a balanced low-carbohydrate diet, but with technological advances in metagenomics and metabolomics researchers have developed new therapeutic approaches aimed to modulate, the gut microbiota to correct the dysbiosis confirmed in people with type 2 diabetes. This literature review provides an update on therapies aimed to modulate the gut microbiota to correct dysbiosis in type 2 diabetics and summarizes the latest advances in this field.
