Lipid profiling of caecal samples from GF mice colonized with B. thetaiotaomicron WT or the ΔSPT mutants (part III)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To study Bacteroidetes sphingolipids in intestinal health, we colonized germ-free mice with wild type or a sphingolipid-deficient Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron strain. A lack of Bacteroides derived sphingolipids increased intestinal inflammation, dysregulated innate immunity and altered the host ceramide pool.
