An article recently published in Nature Medicine by the group led by Drs. Jun Wang and Yingrui Li from BGI-Shenzhen and Xuan Zhang from Beijing Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences revealed the relationship between the human microbiome and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) [1]. Zhang et al. performed metagenomic shotgun sequencing and a metagenome-wide association study (MGWAS) on fecal, dental, and salivary samples from a large cohort of treatment-naYve RA individuals and healthy con- trols. As a result, they found that the gut microbiome and the oral microbiome exhibited significant differences between RA natients and normal subiects. More importantly,
