Project description:We implemented transcriptomic analyses of blood and hippocampus of old mice treated with Akkermansia muciniphila Membrane Protein for 8 weeks.
Project description:Akkermansia muciniphila, a common member of the human gut microbiota, is considered to be a beneficial resident of the intestinal mucus layer. Surface-exposed molecules produced by this organism likely play important roles in colonization and communication with other microbes and the host, but the protein composition of the outer membrane has not been characterized thus far. Herein we identify A. muciniphila proteins after enrichment and fractionation of the outer membrane proteome of A. muciniphila.
