It homes to the proximal small intestine and induceses diarrhea and malabsoption. Here we established a novel murine G. lamblia infection model and analyzed the tissue and epithelial response and downstream microbial and metabolic effects in the adult host. Overall design: Neonate mice at the age of 3-4 days were orally infected by gavage with 2x10e5 G. lamblia ATCC 5058 (assemblage B, strain GS, clone H7) trophozoites. The infection was monitored by antigen ELISA and quantitative PCR using weekly fecal samples as well as histology. Transcriptional analysis of total gut tissue and isolated intestinal epithelial cells (Lotz et al., JEM, 2006) as well as metabolic analysis in blood, intestinal content and liver tissue were performed in adult animals.ENAsmall, Animalia, Controlling, preventive therapy, reference sample, determination, underdeveloped, RnBP, prophylaxis, adult stage, Tissue, hypoplasia, metazoans, GlcNAc 2-epimerase, Metazoa., animals, prevention, AGE, preventive measures, multicellular animals, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase, reduced, control, RENBP, chemical analysis, renin-binding protein, simple tissue, assay, tiny, Animal, Adults, prevention and control, adult, Controlledsmall, Animalia, Controlling, preventive therapy, reference sample, determination, underdeveloped, RnBP, prophylaxis, adult stage, Tissue, hypoplasia, metazoans, GlcNAc 2-epimerase, Metazoa., animals, prevention, AGE, preventive measures, multicellular animals, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase, reduced, control, RENBP, chemical analysis, renin-binding protein, simple tissue, assay, tiny, Animal, Adults, prevention and control, adult, ControlledfalseTranscriptional analysis of total small intestinal tissue from adult infected and age-matched control animalsTranscriptional analysis of total small intestinal tissue from adult infected and age-matched control animals2025-09-242020-04-05PRJNA623022GSE14808210090
