Figure 2.
Stacked bar plots of relative changes in gut microbiota composition of FRL rats. Each bar represents all the OTUs observed across samples from one rat. OTUs in blue were detected in both pre-and post-FMT samples, while OTUs in purple were novel in the rat and not detected in the donor material. The green OTUs were common in both rats and humans, while the red percentage was unique to the human donor material only. FMT-MDD: Faecal microbiota transplantation from patients with MDD into rats. FMT-Healthy: Faecal microbiota transplantation from healthy individuals into rats. FMT-MDD-Ser: Faecal microbiota transplantation from patients with MDD into rats combined with treatment with sertraline.
