We compared gut microbiota of mir-21 KO and WT mice by 16s sequencing

To investigate whether gut microbiota is associated with miR-21, 13 fecal samples from widetype mice (WT) (n=5) and miR-21 knockout mice (miR-21 KO) (n=8) two groups, Illumina MiSeq pyrosequencing analysis and bioinformatic statistical approach demonstrated that the diversity of gut microbiota and key pholytypes are significantly different in WT mice and miR-21 KO mice
