Summary

Recently, the respiratory microbiota characterisation of a Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients' cohort has highlighted the potential role of anaerobes, and specially species belonging to the genus Porphyromonas, in the first P. aeruginosa colonization.

The aim of this project is to describe the bacterial anaerobic population in the respiratory microbiota of a CF cohort. At the end of this study, an inventory of the anaerobic microbiota in CF respiratory samples will be establish in relation to the patients' pulmonary function and P. aeruginosa colonization status in order to speculate about the pulmonary anaerobes roles, still unknown.

The innovative aspect of the ANA-MUCO study is the use of a specific sample kit designed for the study which allows preserving anaerobic bacteria in sputum according to the recommendations of the International Human Microbiome Standards (IHMS). Extended-culture and molecular approaches will be performed to identify and describe the anaerobic bacteria which could be involved in the pulmonary homeostasis in CF respiratory samples.
