Lung and gut microbiota are altered by hyperoxia and contribute to oxygen-induced lung injury, part I
The goal of this experiment was to determine the effects of hyperoxia on the microbiota of developing lungs. Newborn mouse pups were exposed either to 21% FiO2 (room air) or 75% FiO2 (hyperoxia) for two weeks. Bacterial communities were characterized using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
