An essential role of Ffar2 in dietary fibre-mediated promotion of Bifidobacterium and suppression of Prevotellaceae and H. hepaticus. (a) Fecal DNA from Ffar2−/− mice and their WT littermates were evaluated for abundance of indicated gut microbiota. (b) Ffar2−/− mice and their WT littermates maintained on conventional diet (Conv) were fed with FF or FP diets. The abundance of indicated bacterial groups in feces was quantified 1 day before (Conv) switching the diet or after 1 week on experimental diets (FF or FP). Shown is the relative abundance of indicated bacterial groups to that of total bacteria. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.0001. (n=4 mice). A representative of two experiments is shown.
