The mouse model of antibiotics-induced diarrhea was established by gastric perfusion with mixed antibiotics(23.33 m L·kg^(-1)·d^(-1)) composed of gentamicin sulfate and cephradine capsules administered for 5 days, and the control group was treated with an equal amount of sterile water. Contents of the jejunum and ileum were then collected and metagenomic DNA was extracted, after which analysis of bacterial lactase genes using operational taxonomic units(OTUs) was carried outafter amplification and sequencing.RESULTS OTUs were 871 and 963 in the model group and control group, respectively, and 690 of these were identical. There were significant differences in Chao1 and ACE indices between the two groups(P < 0.05). Principal component analysis, principal coordination analysis and nonmetric multidimensional scaling analyses showed that OTUs distribution in the control group was relatively intensive, and differences among individuals were small, while in the model group, they were widely dispersed and more diversified. Bacterial lactase genes from the intestinal contents of the control group were related to Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and unclassified bacteria. Of these, Proteobacteria was the most abundant phylum. In contrast, the bacterial population was less diverse and abundant in the model group, as the abundance of Bradyrhizobium sp. BTAi1, Agrobacterium sp. H13-3, Acidovorax sp. KKS102, Azoarcus sp. KH32 C and Aeromonas caviae was lower than that in the control group. In addition, of the known species, the control group and model group had their own unique genera, respectively.CONCLUSION Antibiotics reduce the diversity of bacterial lactase genes in the intestinal contents, decrease the abundance of lactase gene, change the lactase gene strains, and transform their structures.展开更多
