Bilophila wadsworthia aggravates high fat diet induced metabolic dysfunctions in mice
Abstract
Lipid intake is known to promote Bilophila wadsworthia growth. Here the authors show that B. wadsworthia aggravates high fat diet induced metabolic dysfunctions and its suppression, both pharmacologically or mediated by Lactobacillus rhamnosus, limits the severity of metabolic impairment.
