Microbe-derived indole tunes organ-function and links microbe metabolites to biological ageing
2023-01-24
Abstract excerpt
To investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms on how the gut microbe metabolite, indoles, regulate host organ growth and function, germ-free male mice were mono-colonized with indole-producing wildtype Escherichia coli or tryptophanase-encoding tnaA knockout mutant indole-non-producing E. coli . The indole mutant E. coli recipient mice exhibited significant multiorgan decline and growth retardation combin...
