16S rRNA sequencing of fecal samples from wild type mice that were either exposed or not to western diet for 8 weeks
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We found that western diet consumption for 8 weeks resulted in decrease in the percentage of normal Paneth cell population in wild type mice, indicating that western diet could negatively affect Paneth cell function. We performed transcriptional profiling to identify molecular mechanisms associated with Paneth cell defect in wild type mice exposed to western diet. Male mice were used at 4-5 weeks of age. The whole ileum of the mice were harvested for transcriptomic analysis after completing 8 weeks of western diet treatment.
