  1. Three to 4-week-old C57BL/6J male mice were fed a high-fat diet to induce obesity (DIO group) for 16 weeks, with a normal-fat diet as control (NC group). Meanwhile, ampicillin (1 g/L) and neomycin (0.5 g/L) were delivered via drinking water to mice fed the high-fat diet (DIO-AB group) and the normal-fat diet (NC-AB group). Fecal microbiota was analyzed by 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing. The number of OTUs, coverage percentages, richness estimators (ACE and Chao), and diversity indices (Shannon and Simpson) were calculated at 3% distance. n = 10 in each group. Data are means ± SD
