The protein expression of related receptors and transcriptional factors in the cecum mucosal tissue. a The protein levels of TLR4, GPR41 and GPR43 are expressed as arbitrary units relative to β-tubulin. b The protein levels of NF-κB, p38 and ERK1/2 are expressed as arbitrary units relative to GAPDH. Bands 1–5 represented the caecal mucosa samples from LC group; Bands 6–10 represented the caecal mucosa samples from HC group. Asterisks indicate the level of statistically significant difference: * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01
