描述口腔微生物群的进化是一项具有挑战性的任务,但越来越可行。最近,牙石被证明可以保存口腔微生物群、宿主组织和饮食中的古代生物分子数万年。因此,它为研究祖先口腔微生物群提供了一个独特的窗口。本文回顾了古代牙石研究的最新进展以及对人类口腔微生物群的进化和生态的新见解。
Characterizing the evolution of the oral microbiome is a challenging, but increasingly feasible, task. Recently, dental calculus has been shown to preserve ancient biomolecules from the oral microbiota, host tissues and diet for tens of thousands of years. As such, it provides a unique window into the ancestral oral microbiome. This article reviews recent advancements in ancient dental calculus research and emerging insights into the evolution and ecology of the human oral microbiome.
