Project description:Neonatal mice were susceptible to cryptosporidium infection at 1- and 2-weeks of age, but were resistant to infection at 3- and 6-weeks of age. Diet and microbial changes are known to occur during the weaning transition in mice and we hypothesized that these changes in the intestinal luminal environment might influence resistance and susceptibility to cryptosporidium infection. As one part of testing this hypothesis, cecal microbiota composition was determined by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing of DNA isolated from the cecal contents of mice at 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, and 6 weeks of age.
Project description:Prostate of SD rats was injected with 0.1 ml 1% carrageenan to induce chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, and the control rats injected with sterile saline. Then, the cecal contents were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing.

Project description:Cruciferous vegetables and their derived compounds, such as glucosinolates, have demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties in animal models. In this study, broccoli-supplemented diet induced changes in the gut microbiome and its role in host and bacterial gene expression were examined in mice following consumption of the Total Western Diet (TWD), which is based on NHANES data and represents the composition of a typical American diet. C57BL/6 male mice were fed a TWD for six weeks followed by a supplementation of 0, 0.5, 1 or 2.5% broccoli powder for three weeks. Microbial communities from cecal contents were taxonomically profiled using 16S and metagenomics sequencing, and metatranscriptomics was used to assess functionality of bacterial species. Cecum tissues were also analyzed for host transcriptomics.
