Modulation of the gut-liver axis by oxymatrine alleviates metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease

Figure 9 Fecal microbiota transplantation improved histopathological liver damage in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease rats. A: Liver histology (hematoxylin eosin staining, representative images), 100 × (200 μm); 400 × (50 μm); B: Liver histology (oil red O staining, representative images). n = 6, 100 × (200 μm); 400 × (50 μm); C: Quantitative oil red O staining of rat liver tissue, n = 3. ^bP < 0.01. Statistical analysis was conducted using one-way analysis of variance with Tukey’s post hoc test, and results are presented as mean ± SD. Abx: Antibiotics; FMT: Fecal microbiota transplantation; HE: Hematoxylin eosin; ORO: Oil red O; SFF: Sterile fecal filtrate.
