Fecal microbiota transplantation from different pig breeds alters fat deposition and gut microbiota in mice

Key Points

• This research investigates how fecal microbiota from different pig breeds influences fat deposition and gut microbiota in mice.
• Conducted fecal microbiota transplantation from various pig breeds to mice.
• Analyzed the resulting changes in fat deposition and gut microbiota composition.
• Mice receiving fecal microbiota from DLY pigs showed increased fat deposition.
• Prevotella levels were significantly associated with fat deposition in treated mice.
