The results of PCoA and Kruskal–Wallis H-test bar plot in lung specimens. A PCoA and B Kruskal–Wallis H-test bar plot at phylum level in the lung specimens from mice treated with PBS [n = 4 in BALF specimens, n = 11 in lung(i), and n = 10 in lung(P)]. C PCoA and D Kruskal–Wallis H-test bar plot at phylum level in the lung specimens from mice treated with LPS [n = 7 in BALF specimens, n = 11 in Lung(i) and n = 10 in Lung(P)]. *Indicated P < 0.05, **indicated P < 0.01, and ***indicated P < 0.001. E Bray–Curtis dissimilarity index was calculated to reflect the replicability of Lung(i) and Lung(p) specimens compared with BALF specimens [n = 11 in Lung(i) and n = 10 in Lung(P)]
