Consistent alterations of human fecal microbes after transplanted to germ-free mice

2018-12-13

<h4>Background</h4> Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) of human fecal samples to germ-free (GF) mice is useful for establishing causal relationships between gut microbiota and human phenotypes. However, due to intrinsic differences between human and mouse intestines and distinct diets between the two organisms, replicating human phenotypes in mouse through FMT is not guaranteed; similarly, treatments that are effe...
