Fig. 3: Apilactobacillus kunkeei FM01 reduced lipid accumulation in high-fructose diet-fed mice.

From: Fructophilic Apilactobacillus kunkeei alleviates high-fructose diet-induced lipid accumulation by modulating gut microbiota and intestinal barrier function in mice

Fig. 3

Representative images of (A) kidneys and (B) epididymis fat pads from mice in the control, high-fructose diet (HFD) and FLAB groups (HFD with A. kunkeei FM01 intervention). Differences in the weight of (C) kidney, (D) epididymis fat, (E) liver, and (F) spleen across experimental groups. G Representative liver images and Oil Red O-stained liver sections showing hepatic lipid accumulation in mice from different groups. H Hepatic triglyceride (TG) levels and (I) total cholesterol (TC) levels. Serum lipid profiles, including (J) TG, (K) TC, (L) low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and (M) high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 6). * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001.
