  1. Rats were administered CPT-11 or lactic acid buffer intravenously for 4 days, and HST or GTE was administered in combination. The relative abundance at the phylum level in the gut microbiota was measured by next-generation sequencing. “–” indicates that the value is greater than 0 and less than 0.1 (mean ± S.D., n = 3, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 vs. Cont., p < 0.05 vs. CPT-11).
