Table 1.

Time post-inoculation, pulmonary bacterial counts and TNF-α correlate to the lung microbiota over time

p-value F model R2
Murine gender 0.689 0.420 0.006
CFU in blood 0.876 0.765 0.399
MCP-1 0.618 0.830 0.966
IFN-y 0.220 1.183 0.317
IL-6 0.191 1.590 0.936
TNF-α 0.044 1.877 0.875
CFU in lung 0.008 2.263 0.852
Time post-inoculation 0.001 15.905 0.546

Values were calculated using Permanova and used ASV level data for the lung microbiota, the cytokines were measured in lung homogenates

ASV amplicon sequence variance, CFU colony forming unit, MCP-1 monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, IFN-γ interferon γ, IL-6 Interleukin 6 and TNF-α tumor necrosis factor α
