TLR4 May Be Involved in the Regulation of Colonic Mucosal Microbiota by Vitamin A

Objectives: To investigate the specific role of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in the regulation of the intestinal mucosa-associated microbiota by vitamin A (VA).Methods: Both TLR4-/- (knockout, KO) and wild-type (WT) female mice were randomly fed a VA normal (VAN) or VA deficient (VAD) diet for 4 week...
