Age and micronutrient effects on the microbiome in a mouse model of zinc depletion and supplementation
2022-09-19
Abstract excerpt
Older adult populations are at risk for elevated zinc deficiency, which may predispose them to immune dysfunction and age-related chronic inflammation that drives myriad diseases and disorders. Recent work also implicates the gut microbiome in the onset and severity of age-related inflammation, indicating that dietary zinc status and the gut microbiome may interact to impact age-related host immunity. We hypothesi...
