Long-Term Effects of Early-Life Antibiotic Exposure on Resistance to Subsequent Bacterial Infection

ABSTRACT Early-life antibiotic exposure may provoke long-lasting microbiota perturbation. Since a healthy gut microbiota confers resistance to enteric pathogens, we hypothesized that early-life antibiotic exposure would worsen the effects of a bacterial infection encountered as an adult. To test thi...
