  1. The direction of metabolic alterations is represented by an arrow as follow: ↑ - increase; ↓ - decrease. “Co&V” indicates cofactor and vitamin. “Time” and time intervals (0–6 h, 18 h, 24 h, 48 h) reflect metabolites showing significant alteration over the entire experimental period and specific time points, respectively.
