Ingestion of Bifidobacterium longum changes miRNA levels in the brains of mice
Fig 3
Expression of miRNA in the brains of mice with B. longum treatment.
Expression of brain miRNAs were measured using a PCR array screening of miRNAs associated with neurological development and health. Without treatment, some miRNAs, including mmu-mir-652-3p, are expressed differently in Balb/c and C57BL/6 mice (see Fig 1). With treatment, expression of most miRNAs tested align between the two strains of mice.
