Accounting for reciprocal host-microbiome interactions in experimental science.

Nature - 9 Jun 2016

Stappenbeck Thaddeus S, Virgin Herbert W

Abstract excerpt

Mammals are defined by their metagenome, a combination of host and microbiome genes. This knowledge presents opportunities to further basic biology with translation to human diseases. However, the now-documented influence of the metagenome on experimental results and the reproducibility of in vivo mammalian models present new challenges. Here we provide the scientific basis for calling on all investigators,...
