a Images of mice livers after different treatments. b, c Representative images of H/E staining and Oil Red O staining of liver sections (400×, scale bar = 50 μm). Some local damaged portions of hepatocyte are indicated by yellow arrows in H/E staining. d Representative images of immunofluorescent staining of liver sections using anti-UCP1 (400×, scale bar = 50 μm). HCD_ND refers to the group of hypercholesterolemia model mice; v/i/uH6 refers to viable (vH6), heat-inactivated (iH6), and ultrasonically-lysed (uH6) bacteria cells; FMT1/2/3 refers to using feces from HCD_ND, Sim and vH6 groups, respectively.
