Figure 1

Comparison of physiological biochemical indicators of different piglets. (A) Body size. (B) Body weight. (C) Blood biochemical parameters. (D) Concentration of growth hormones in the blood of piglets. (E) Concentration of insulin in the blood of piglets. (F) Concentration of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) in the blood of piglets. N = 3, the data are presented as the means ± s.e.m. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared to the normal piglets (control). #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 between the GF piglets and FMT piglets. NS not significant, GF piglets germ-free piglets, FMT piglets GF piglets with fecal microbiota transplantation, TC total cholesterol, TG triglycerides, HDL-C high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, GLU glucose.
