On the one hand, immunological factors and associated chronic graft rejection are major causes of morbidity and carry an increased risk of mortality due to liver graft failure. On the other hand, infectious complications have a major impact on patient outcomes. In addition, abdominal or pulmonary infections, and biliary complications, including cholangitis, are common complications in patients after liver transplantation and can also be associated with a risk for mortality. Thereby, these patients already suffer from gut dysbiosis at the time of liver transplantation due to their severe underlying disease, causing end-stage liver failure. Despite an impaired gut-liver axis, repeated antibiotic therapies can cause major changes in the gut microbiome. Due to repeated biliary interventions, the biliary tract is often colonized by several bacteria with a high risk for multi-drug resistant germs causing local and systemic infections before and after liver transplantation. Growing evidence about the role of gut microbiota in the perioperative course and their impact on patient outcomes in liver transplantation is available. However, data about biliary microbiota and their impact on infectious and biliary complications are still sparse. In this comprehensive review, we compile the current evidence for the role of microbiome research in liver transplantation with a focus on biliary complications and infections due to multi-drug resistant germs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms24054841","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,2]],"date-time":"2023-03-02T04:22:28Z","timestamp":1677730948000},"page":"4841","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["The Role of Microbiota in Liver Transplantation and Liver Transplantation-Related Biliary Complications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2366-8524","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ulrich","family":"Wirth","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2877-8626","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tianxiao","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7933-2977","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Josefine","family":"Schardey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katharina","family":"Kratz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mingming","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5830-3536","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Malte","family":"Schirren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Florian","family":"K\u00fchn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandr","family":"Bazhin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jens","family":"Werner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Markus","family":"Guba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Schulz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine II, University Hospital, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8303-3913","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joachim","family":"Andrassy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General, Visceral, and Transplant Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, 81377 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"594","DOI":"10.1111\/ajt.13479","article-title":"Complications and Their Resolution in Recipients of Deceased and Living Donor Liver Transplants: Findings from the A2ALL Cohort Study","volume":"16","author":"Samstein","year":"2016","journal-title":"Am.
