Industrialized Human Gut Microbiota Causes Intestinal Inflammation
metagenome
Germ-free mice with human gut microbiota donors through the Immigrant Microbiome Project. We use a humanized germ-free mouse model to test whether there are detrimental effects of a low-fiber diet, indicative of a Western diet, on metabolic health and whether these effects are dependent on having a westernized microbiota.
