Fig. 1. — Total eubacterial gene numbers in fecal samples derived from PACAP-deficient and wildtype mice over time. Individual intestinal total eubacterial loads were quantitatively assessed in fecal samples derived from (A) wildtype (WT, closed circles) and (B) pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide-deficient (PACAP^–/–, open circles) mice at defined time points postpartum (as indicated on the x axis; wk: weeks; mo: months) by qRT-PCR and expressed as 16S rRNA gene numbers per nanogram DNA. Medians, numbers of analyzed animals (in parentheses), and significance levels (p values) determined by Mann–Whitney U test are indicated
