Transplantation of human microbiota into conventional mice durably reshapes the gut microbiota

Abstract Human microbiota-associated (HMA) mice are an important model to study the relationship between liver diseases and intestinal microbiota. We describe a new method to humanize conventional mice based on bowel cleansing with polyethylene glycol followed by fecal microbiota transplantation (FM...
