Increased levels of Gram-positive bacteria and decreased levels of Gram-negative bacteria in 24-wk-old (24-wo) TSOD mice. (a) Composition of fecal bacteria in 24-wk-old TSOD mice and age-matched TSNO mice. (b) Comparison of the percentages of Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria in 24-wk-old TSOD mice and age-matched TSNO mice. Boxes indicate the interquartile ranges between the first and third quartiles, and the lines within the boxes indicate the medians. If no error bars appear, the experimental error was smaller than the symbol itself. **P < 0.01 versus TSNO mice.
