Figure 6

GXN improved the structure of the gut microbiota in AD rabbits: (a) and (d) relative abundance at the phylum and genus levels; (b) the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio; (c) and (e) changes in specific phyla and genera; (f) evolutionary branch diagrams comparing the gut microbiota in the AD and GXN groups; and (g) heatmap of Pearson’s correlation coefficients between representative components of the gut microbiota, blood lipids, Aβ, and neuronal metabolism activities. n = 5. Red and blue indicate positive correlations and negative correlations, respectively.
