16S Data of colon microbiota from mice transplanted with microbiota from infant

Maternal secretor status is one of the determinants of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) composition, which in turn influences the gut microbiota composition of infants. To understand if this change in gut microbiota impacts immune cell composition, intestinal morphology and gene expression, 21 day old germ-free C57BL/6 mice were transplanted with fecal microbiota from infants whose mothers were either secretors (SMM) or non-secretors (NSM) or from infants consuming dairy-based formula (MFM).
