EGCG-FMT alleviated DSS-induced experimental colitis better than CON-FMT and EGCG-SFF. a Diagram illustrating the mouse model of colitis employed in this study. EGCG-FMT and CON-FMT treatments were indicated. b Kinetics of DAI scores throughout the entire duration of the study. c Daily body weight changes throughout the entire duration of the study. d Macroscopic pictures of colons and (f) the lengths of colon from each group. E H&E stained colon sections and (g) histological scores of colons (n = 6 per group). Concentrations of four representative pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-1β (h), IL-6 (i), IL-8 (j), and TNF-α (k) in the plasma. Concentrations of MPO (L), IL-6 (M), and TNF-α (N) in the colon. Data were presented as means ± SEM (n = 8 per group). Statistical significance was determined using one-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey test. *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001
