Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
Expression of metabolic enzymes Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is highly affected by drugs, diseases, age and gender. The Intestinal microflora has been suggested to play a role in regulating CYP expression and antibiotic treatments would lead to changes in level and composition of microbiota in mouse gut. This study aims to analyze CYP expression changes in the liver and small intestine resulted from the reduction of intestinal microflora by antibiotics. Impacts on bile acid signaling were also analyzed for a better comprehension of the mechanisms involved in this modulation. Female C57BL/6J mice (9- to 13-week old) were treated with ampicillin (AMP) …
