In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of Bazi Bushen on intestinal inflammation and the potential mechanism of gut microbiota dysbiosis and intestinal homeostasis in senescence\u2010accelerated mouse prone 6 (SAMP6). The hematoxylin and eosin (H&amp;E) staining and immunohistochemistry were performed to assess the function of the intestinal mucosal barrier. The enzyme\u2010linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting were used to determine the level of intestinal inflammation. The aging\u2010related \u03b2\u2010galactosidase (SA\u2010\u03b2\u2010gal) staining and Western blotting were used to measure the extent of intestinal aging. The 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) was performed to analyze the change in gut microbiota composition and distribution.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Bazi Bushen exerted remarkable protective effects in SAMP6, showing a regulated mucosal barrier and increased barrier integrity. It also suppressed intestinal inflammation through down\u2010regulating pro\u2010inflammatory cytokines (IL\u20106, IL\u20101\u03b2, and TNF\u2010\u03b1) and inhibiting TLR4\/NF\u03baB signaling pathway (MYD88, p\u2010p65, and TLR4). Bazi Bushen improved intestinal aging by reducing the area of SA\u2010\u03b2\u2010gal\u2010positive cells and the expression of senescence markers p16, p21, and p53. In addition, Bazi Bushen effectively rebuilt the gut microbiota ecosystem by decreasing the abundance of Bacteroides and Klebsiella, whiles increasing the ratio of Lactobacillus\/Bacteroides and the abundance of Akkermansia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSION<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our study shows that Bazi Bushen could serve as a potential therapy for maintaining intestinal
