---|---|
Muribaculaceae | This family was a major bacterial component of mouse gastrointestinal tract, and previously known as S24-7 group (Lagkouvardos et al., 2019). |
Arthromitus | This Candidatus genus is a key regulator of mouse T cells and previously known as Segmented Filamentous Bacteria (SFB). SFB can interact closely with villous epithelium in the terminal ileum forming long filaments and cross-talk intimately with the host immune system. They were present only in mice with Th17 cell-inducing microbiota, such as C57BL/6 mice from Taconic Farms, however, not detected in mice without Th17 cell-inducing microbiota, including C57BL/6 mice from Jackson Laboratory (Ivanov, 2010). |
Lactobacillus reuteri group | This group contains Lactobacillus reuteri that was reported to ameliorate autism model in mouse (Sgritta et al., 2019). |
Bacteroides acidifaciens group | This group contains Bacteroides acidifaciens that was reported to gain less weight and fat mass than the control so that it can be a therapeutic candidate for obesity (Yang et al., 2017). |
Turicibacter | This genus was reported as characteristic of mice when comparing shotgun metagenomic datasets of human and mouse feces (Nguyen et al., 2015). |
