Gut microbiome alteration in mice model of Gulf War Illness (GWI). A. The proportional abundance of microbial genera: Graphical representation of the most abundant taxa of bacteria at the genus level. Groups compared are gulf war illness group (wild-type mice exposed to gulf war chemicals) (GWI, n = 3) and control group fed with vehicle (Veh, n = 3) (p-value: < 0.05). B. Percentage abundance of gut bacteria Bifidobacterium (i), Roseburia (ii), and Lactobacillus (iii) in a group of mice co-exposed with Gulf war chemicals and Sodium butyrate (GWI + NaBT, n = 3) as compared with GWI mice (n = 3) (p-value: < 0.05).
