Fig. 4From: Faecalibacterium prausnitzii alleviates inflammatory arthritis and regulates IL-17 production, short chain fatty acids, and the intestinal microbial flora in experimental mouse model for rheumatoid arthritisSCFA concentrations and fecal microbial abundances in mice with RA. A Effect of F. prausnitzii administration on bacterial beta diversity based on the Bray–Curtis distance in mice with RA. B The concentrations of SCFAs in cecum (lactate) and C serum (butyrate and acetate). D The average relative abundances of phyla in the Vehicle and Faecali groups. The data are means ± standard deviation (n = 5). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001Back to article page
