Figures & Tables

Fig. 1.

Overall structure alteration in gastric microbiota.The species richness (A) and Rank abundance curve (B) were based on OTUs analysis of the three groups. (C) PCoA of weighted UniFrac analysis plot of gastric microbiota of three groups. (D) Venn diagram showed the OTUs overlaps among the three groups. (R, healthy group; S, NKLA group; T, KLA group).

Fig. 2.

The differences in gastric microbiota composition between healthy and KLA groups by LEfSe analysis. Taxonomic cladogram (A) and Linear discriminative analysis (LDA) scores (B) exhibited the different enriched bacteria taxa between healthy group (Red) and KLA group (Green). All of the taxa showed in the figure with LDA threshold value > 2.

Comparing the differences at the relative abundance of bacterial sequences at the different levels including phylum, order, family and genus level among three groups. (Mann-Whitney U test, *: p < 0.05).

Kp1002 oral inoculation changes gastric and intestinal defensins and serum inflammatory cytokines.Both β-defensin 1 concentration in the intestine (A) and stomach (E) showed a great increase. The concentration of β-defensin 2 (B), α-defensin 5 (C) and α-defensin 6 (D) in intestine showed a significant increase. The levels of serum cytokines IL-1β (F) and TNF-α (G) also increased. (One-way ANOVA analysis, *: p < 0.05).
