- We read with great interest the recently published study by Rehman and colleagues.1 Investigating microbial diversity on faecal and ileal samples from 48 mice using Sanger and 454 techniques, Rehman et al detected increased percentages of Bacteroidetes in the faeces of adult Nod2 −/− mice, whereas Firmicutes levels were significantly higher only in the ileum of Nod2 −/− mice. Since we demonstrated that antibiotic …
