Early life exposure to MC-LR in mice lead to an altered microbiome signature in adolescence. (A) Box plot indicating α- diversity index – Shannon diversity of CHOW (mice treated with vehicle only) and MC groups (mice treated with 5 µg/kg MC-LR via oral gavage at 4 weeks of age). (B) Box plot indicating α- diversity index – Simpson diversity of CHOW and MC groups. (C) Bray–Curtis β-diversity plot in both the CHOW and MC groups. (D) The relative abundance of the gut bacteriome at the family level for CHOW and MC groups is presented by group average
