Figure 1CD. The intake of Lactobacillus paracasei KW3110 in aged mice affected the gut microbial composition. (C) Distribution of gut microbiota (% of total 16S rDNA) at the family level. Families with proportions less than 1% are not listed. (D) Comparisons of relative abundances of Peptostreptococcaceae (left panel), Bifidobacteriaceae (middle panel), and Streptococcaceae (right panel) families. Values are presented as the means ± SEM. Significance was assumed if the p value was < 0.05. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.CTL = control diet; KW3110 = Lactobacillus paracasei KW3110 diet
