  1. Cecal microbiota transplantation has no effect on systolic blood pressure in rats.

    “Systolic BP of the R rats remained unaltered irrespective of S or R rat cecal transplantation.”

  2. Cecal microbiota transplantation increases systolic blood pressure in rats.

    “systolic BP of the S rats given a single bolus of cecal content from R rats was consistently and significantly elevated during the rest of their life”
