Project description:Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is a widely consumed probiotic whose potential beneficial effects in humans have been examined in over 250 clinical trials. However, the mechanisms by which LGG modulates host gut physiology remains unknown. R. gnavus is a pathobiont that is strongly associated with inflammatory bowel diseases. Germ free mice were mono-associated with L. rhamonosus (LGG) or R. gnavus (RG) for 21 days, ileum bulk RNA-seq were performed to compare the transcriptomic profiles of LGG or RG associated mice with the transcriptome of germ-free mouse ileum.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG mid-exponential pH-controlled bioreactor cultures before and after exposure to bovine bile (0.2% ox gall). Keywords: bile, stress response Cell samples from four biological replicates were harvested right before (time point 0 min) and 10, 30 and 120 min after bile treatment. Each sample was compared to a common reference sample (time point 0 min, mid-exponential growth phase Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG cultures). A total of 12 hybridizations were performed using balanced dye-swap design. Dyes were balanced between compared sample pairs and between biological replicates.
