5-Fu treatment changed the gut microflora community composition at phylum level in feces and cecum contents of mice. (A) The bar diagram of bacterial community distribution in cecum contents (n = 10/group) and feces (n = 5/group) at phylum level, respectively. (B) The pie charts depicting the mean relative abundance for feces and cecum contents at phylum level, respectively. (C) 5-Fu treatment down-regulated the ratio of F/B in cecum contents and feces. (D) The correlation between body weight changes and F/B ratio in cecum contents. (E) The correlation between body weight changes and F/B ratio in feces. Values were expressed as mean ± S.E.M (n = 5/group, feces; n = 10/group, cecum contents). Data were analyzed by t-test. ^*P < 0.05, ^***P < 0.001 vs. control group.
