FSS regulates populations of gut bacteria in APP/PS1 AD mice. (a) Log₁₀ bacteria copy number/g of Lactobacillus. (b) Log₁₀ bacteria copy number/g of E. coli. (c) Correlation analysis between the copy numbers of Lactobacillus and E. coli measured by qPCR as log₁₀ bacteria copy numbers/g in fecal samples collected from mice. Data represent the mean ± SEM (n = 8 per group). ## P <0.05 and ### P < 0.001 compared with WT. ∗ P < 0.05, ∗∗ P < 0.01, and ∗∗∗ P < 0.001 compared with AD. FSS: Fo Shou San; AD: Alzheimer's disease; WT: wild type; FSS-L: 1.6 g/kg/day; FSS-M: 3.2 g/kg/day; FSS-H: 6.4 g/kg/day.
