Dietary fibre combinations modulate gut microbiome composition and metabolic responses in zebrafish, with lasting effects on intestinal barrier gene expression

J. Abi Assaf, G. Le Gall, R. Sullivan, A. Bezrucico-Pyatakov, D. Clifton, I. Harris, O. Pullin, S. Immler

This study shows that combining apple pectin and cellulose in zebrafish diets leads to non-additive gut microbiome changes and lasting intestinal barrier effects.
