Fecal microbiota transplantation reduced the quantity of CD68- and MPO-positive immune cells in the ischemic penumbra. A Representative immunofluorescence images of CD68- and MPO-stained brains counterstained with DAPI. B Number of CD68 + cells per unit area under confocal microscopy. C Number of MPO + cells per unit area under confocal microscopy. Mean ± SD. n = 5–7/group. Scale bar = 30 µm. #p: comparison between recipient mice of the same sex. #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001. *p: comparison between recipient mice harboring the same-sex microbiota. *p < 0.05. **p < 0.01. ***p < 0.001
