Figure 6

Increased LPS level and decreased GLP-2 level in plasma and colon of rats 2 weeks after intragastric administration of 3DG, for each group. Plasma (a) and colon LPS (C) levels were significantly increased; plasma (b) and colon (d) GLP-2 levels were significantly decreased compared with the NC group. Values are the . , . (e) Correlation between colon LPS level and abundance of Parasutterella. (f) Correlation between colon GLP-2 level and abundance of Candidatus Soleaferrea. The inset corresponds to Pearson’s correlation and corresponding value.
