Composition of the fecal microbiota in FMT-treated mice. A Microbial community abundance was measured by the Chao1 index. B Microbial community diversity was measured by the Shannon index. C Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on the weighted UniFrac distance matrix. D Relative abundances of fecal bacteria at the genus level. E Differentially abundant taxa of fecal microbiota between mice that underwent PBS-FMT and ALA-FMT were analyzed by LEfSe. LDA score ≥ 2. F Heatmap of Spearman’s correlation between gut microbiota abundance and phenotype/inflammatory factors. The colors range from blue (negative correlation) to red (positive correlation). ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05
