Figure 2: Phylum level alterations in the fecal microbiome of young and aged mice after TBI.

Figure 2:

Box plots showing the relative abundance of V4 region of 16S rRNA between young and aged mice at baseline and up to 30 days post-TBI. (A) Phyla-level analysis demonstrates significant baseline age-related differences in the relative abundance of OTUs in fecal samples between young and aged mice (p ≤ 0.05(*), 0.001(**), & 0.0001(***)). (B) At 30 days post-injury, phyla-level differences in the relative abundance of OTUs in fecal samples expanded to include 4 significantly altered phyla after injury ((p ≤ 0.05(*), 0.001(**), & 0.0001(***)).
