Variation in Microbiome Composition and Faecal Metabolites Are Associated With Differential Susceptibility to DSS‐Induced Colitis

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 177, Issue 4, Page 766-783, April 2026.
C57BL/6 mice from Charles River Laboratories (CR) have enhanced mucosal immune action relative to C57BL/6 mice from Jackson Laboratories (JAX). CR mice are more susceptible to severe DSS‐induced colitis than JAX mice. Co‐housing transfers colitis susceptibility from CR mice to JAX mice.
