Prophylactic HD5 treatment attenuates radiation-induced intestinal dysbiosis. Adult mice were fed a liquid diet with vehicle (Veh-Sham & Veh-IR) or HD5 (HD5-Sham & HD5-IR) for 24 hours before sham-treatment (Sham) or irradiated (IR). At 24 hours after irradiation, the microbiota composition in colonic flushing was analyzed by 16S rRNA-sequencing and metagenomics. (A) The relative abundance of different phyla of bacteria. Data are derived from pooling all values within the group. The experiment was repeated once with similar results. (B) The Shannon Index was used to quantify α-diversity. (C) Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarity analysis was performed to determine β-diversity. (D-G) Relative abundance of Enterobacteriaceae (D), E. coli (E), Lactobacillus (F), and Akkermansia (G) in different groups.
