(c) Statistical comparisons of gut bacterial profiles at the genus level. (d) Heatmap of gut bacterial profiles at the genus level. (e) Statistical comparisons of gut bacterial profiles at the species level. (f) Heatmap of gut bacterial profiles at the species level. Control: db/db mice administered with vehicle; AG: db/db mice administered with 150 mg/kg andrographolide. Data represent means ± SEM (n = 6), ∗p < 0.05 versus the control group.
