We performed an Amplicon Sequencing of fungal ITS1 on stool samples from 65 individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD) and 22 healthy controls.. The gut microbiome in Coronary Heart Disease

The composition and function of the gut microbiome are strongly associated with cardiovascular disease. Here, we performed an Amplicon Sequencing of fungal ITS1 on the stools of 65 patients with different degrees of Coronary Heart Disease(CHD) and 22 healthy controls. There were significant differences in the gut fungi between healthy controls and patients with different severity of CHD. Our data provide a resource to investigate further the role of gut fungi in the study of CHD.
