Influence of gene-environment interaction on the gut microflora-mammalian contribution to metabolism and toxicity
Gut microbial composition and activity exert a strong influence on the metabolic phenotype of the host, and variation in the metabolic phenotype is a major factor underlying inter-individual variation in drug responses. In this thesis, the role of gut microflora on the mammalian metabolic system was...
