Voluntary Exercise Differentially Affects High-Fat Induced Metabolic Phenotypes Across BXD Mouse Strains

Arianna Lamanna, Ziyun Zhou, Besma Boussoufa, Emeline Pansart, Pierre Garcia, Tony Heurtaux, Manuel Buttini, Djalil Coowar, Giusi Marcon, Evan G. Williams

The paper shows that voluntary exercise improves glucose tolerance in some BXD mouse strains on a high-fat diet, independent of caloric intake, and suggests gut microbiota may mediate this effect.

Integrative Analysis of the Mouse Cecal Microbiome Across Diet, Age, and Weight in the Diverse BXD Population

Ziyun Zhou, Arianna Lamanna, Rashi Halder, Emeline Pansart, Shaman Narayanasamy, Besma Boussoufa, Thamila Kerkour, Paul Wilmes, Evan G. Williams

This study integrates microbiome and host transcriptome data from mice to show diet, age, and genetics influence gut microbiota, with machine learning models predicting body weight and age with high accuracy.
