MA can colonize Apoe−/− mice guts and lower their plasma TMAO concentrations. (A) Q-PCR analysis of fecal samples from Apoe−/− mice transplanted with one of the 3 different MA, namely: M. smithii, M. mazei, and M. blatticola. Stool samples were collected at days 2, 10, and 30 post-transplantation. (B) Plasma TMAO concentrations in mock- and MA-transplanted Apoe−/− mice collected at days 2, 10 and 30 post-transplantation. Mock-transplanted negative control mice (NC) only received regular water, whereas mock-transplanted positive control mice (PC) received high choline/TMA water, similar to MA-transplanted mice.
