a Venn diagram of identified bacterial strains in the feces of mice. b Microbial α-diversity at the ASV level was evaluated using the Shannon index. The data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 3 biologically independent mice). Source data are provided as a Source Data file. c The microbial β-diversity at the ASV level was analyzed using Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCoA) based on the unweighted-unifrac distance matrix. d Heatmap of sample distances based on the Bray-Curtis distance matrix. e Relative abundance of gut microbial taxa at the family level. f Heatmap of the relative abundance of gut microbial taxa at the genus level. g, h Relative abundance of specific microbial taxa at the family level: (g) Akkermansia and (h) Lachnoclostridium. The data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 3 biologically independent mice). Source data are provided as a Source Data file. i LEfSe branching diagram. Healthy group: Fecal samples extracted from healthy mice without tumors. Control group: Fecal samples extracted from untreated colorectal cancer mice. Treatment group: Fecal samples extracted from colorectal cancer mice treated with oral administration of Dsv@MnO2-NE-PEG.
