Deletion of hepatic growth hormone receptor (GHR) alters the mouse gut microbiota by affecting bile acid metabolism

Abstract excerpt

Both growth hormone (GH) and gut microbiota play significant roles in diverse physiological processes, but the crosstalk between them is poorly understood. Despite the regulation of GH by gut microbiota, study on GH’s influence on gut microbiota is limited, especially on the impacts of tissue specific GH signaling and their feedback effects on the host. In this study, we profiled gut microbiota and metabolome in...
