Core Tip Ulcerative colitis (UC) is considered to be closely associated with alteration of intestinal microorganisms. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, UC can be divided into Pi-Xu-Shi-Yun syndrome (syndrome of spleen deficiency and dampness, PXSY) and Da-Chang-Shi-Re syndrome (syndrome of dampness-heat in the large intestine, DCSR). This study showed that the gut microbiota was different between patients with PXSY syndrome and those with DCSR syndrome. The genus Streptococcus was significantly more abundant in DCSR patients than in PXSY patients, while Lachnoclostridium was increased in PXSY patients. Our study suggests that the gut microbiota contributes to the distinction between two TCM syndromes of UC.
