a–d Alpha diversity index (n ≥ 7). e Beta diversity index (n ≥ 7). f PCoA (n ≥ 7). g The relative abundance composition of fecal microbiota at the phylum level (n ≥ 7). h Differences in fecal microbiota between the phylum level (n ≥ 7). i Ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroides (n ≥ 7). j The relative abundance composition of fecal microbiota at the genus level (n ≥ 7). k Differences in fecal microbiota between the genus level (n ≥ 7). l SCFAs levels in the cecal contents of mice (n = 5). m Heatmap of Spearman’s correlation between the abundance of gut microbiota and the intestinal barrier dysfunction-related biochemical indexes. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
