Genetic and metabolic links between the murine microbiome and memory

Abstract

Recent evidence has linked the gut microbiome to host behavior via the gut–brain axis [1–3]; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unexplored. Here, we determined the links between host genetics, the gut microbiome and memory using the genetically defined Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse cohort, complemented with microbiome and metabolomic analyses in conventional and germ-free (GF) mice.
