Differences in mucosal gene expression in the colon of two inbred mouse strains after colonization with commensal gut bacteria.

The host genotype has been proposed to contribute to individually composed bacterial communities in the gut. To provide deeper insight into interactions between gut bacteria and host, we associated germ-free C3H and C57BL/10 mice with intestinal bacteria from a C57BL/10 donor mouse. Analysis of micr...
