The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of eukaryotes is colonized by a vast number of bacteria, where the commensal microbiota play an important role in defining the healthy gut. To investigate the influence of commensal bacteria on multiple regions of the host GIT transcriptome, the gene expression profiles of the corpus, jejunum, descending colon, and rectum of conventional (n = 3) and germ-free mice (n = 3) were examined using the Affymetrix Mu74Av2 GeneChip. Differentially regulated genes were ide ...[more]
