Cecal microbiotas of C57BL/6 mice from Jackson and Taconic
C57BL/6 mice from Jackson Laboratory (JAX) and Taconic Biosciences (TAC) display different levels of susceptibility to acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity. Our study indicates the gut microbiota is, at least in part, responsible for the susceptibility difference. To identify gut bacteria potentially responsible for the susceptibility difference, the cecal microbiotas of JAX and TAC were analyzed.
