However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To investigate these mechanisms, BALB\/c mice were randomly divided into three groups: normal control (NC), model control (MC), and\n                    <jats:italic>B. lactis<\/jats:italic>\n                    XLTG11 (XL) groups. We assessed spleen and thymus indices, jejunal histopathology, leukocyte and IgA cell counts, as well as the levels of interferon (IFN)-\n                    <jats:italic>\u03b3<\/jats:italic>\n                    , interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-12, and secretory IgA (SIgA) in the small intestine. We also analysed the composition and diversity of the gut microbiota. The results showed that\n                    <jats:italic>B. lactis<\/jats:italic>\n                    XLTG11 restored villus height and crypt depth, thereby alleviating jejunal tissue damage.

It also increased thymus indices without affecting spleen indices. Regarding the gut microbiota,\n                    <jats:italic>B. lactis<\/jats:italic>\n                    XLTG11 reduced the\n                    <jats:italic>Bacillota<\/jats:italic>\n                    \/\n                    <jats:italic>Bacteroidota<\/jats:italic>\n                    ratio and modulated microbial composition and diversity. Spearman\u2019s correlation analysis revealed significant associations between specific microbial taxa and the immune parameters measured above.
