From: Different gender-derived gut microbiota influence stroke outcomes by mitigating inflammation
Fecal microbiota transplantation inhibited the secretion of inflammatory factors in the serum 72 h after MCAO. CBA kit analysis of the concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-17a, TNF-α, IL-4 and IL-10 in the serum of each group 72 h after MCAO. Mean ± SD. n = 8–10/group. △p: MCAO vs. sham. △p < 0.05. △△p < 0.01. △△△p < 0.001. #p: comparison between recipient mice of the same sex. #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001. *p: comparison between recipient mice harboring same-sex microbiota. *p < 0.05. **p < 0.01. ***p < 0.001
