Fecal microbiota transplantation for irritable bowel syndrome
We conducted FMT experiments using GF mice colonized with fecal microbiota from healthy controls or IBS patients, human donors (n = 3 donors) and mouse recipients (n = 12 recipients). ABX-treated mice received FMT from either healthy donors or IBS mouse prior to behavioral assessment, mouse donors (n = 8 mice per group) and mouse recipients (n = 8 mice per group).
