Research Abstract |
Total DNA extracted from the fecal sample of UC model mouse and the healthy mouse were analyzed by DGGE method. As a result, we could find some new bands which were specific for UC model mouse. Furthermore we could obtain 15,000~40,000 sequence read from each specimen by pyrosequencer(Roche 454-FLX-Titanium), and find the certain bacteria whose population was increasing in UC model mouse. After orally given Clostridium sp. ID4 strain-one representative organism which was identified from UC model mouse-, we could find the inflammatory image in the lower portion of the large intestine. From these data, we concluded that the certain bacteria founding this study were not a little related with the UC onset.
