Fig. 10

Effect of gut microbiota intervention on 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) metabolism pathway in the hypothalamus under different temperature conditions. A 5-HT concentration in the hypothalamus (n = 6). B 5-HT concentration in serum (n = 12). C–E Expression of hypothalamic 5-HT metabolism-related genes (n = 6). C 5-HT receptor 2A mRNA expression level. D Tryptophan hydroxylase 2 mRNA expression level. E Tryptophan-2,3-dioxygenase mRNA expression level. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001
