Figure 6. Transplantation of fecal microbiome from Ber treatment ICH mice improves the gut function. (A) The representative image of immunofluorescence staining of the tight junction protein Claudin-1 in ICH + FMT (Vehicle) and ICH + FMT (Ber) at day 3. (B) The mean of densities of Claudin-1 after ICH day 3. (n = 5 per group). (C) FMT treatment improved the intestinal permeability after ICH day 3. (n = 5 per group). (D) The level of LBP in plasma after FMT treatment after ICH day 3. (n = 5 per group). Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM. #P < 0.05. ##P < 0.01. ###P < 0.001 sham vs. ICH + FMT (Vehicle) group. *P < 0.05. **P < 0.01. ***P < 0.001 ICH + FMT (Vehicle) vs. ICH + FMT (Ber) group. Scale bar = 200 μm.
