Synergistic depletion of gut microbial consortia, but not individual antibiotics, reduces amyloidosis in APPPS1-21 Alzheimer’s transgenic mice

Abstract In preceding efforts, we demonstrated that antibiotic (ABX) cocktail-mediated perturbations of the gut microbiome in two independent transgenic lines, termed APP SWE /PS1 ΔE9 and APPPS1-21, leads to a reduction in Aβ deposition in male mice. To determine whether these observed reductions of...
