Fig. 1From: Dietary resistant starch ameliorating lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation in meat ducks associated with the alteration in gut microbiome and glucagon-like peptide 1 signalingDietary resistant starch (RS) reversed the chronic lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced the compromised body weight and the impaired intestinal barrier integrity. A Body weight; B Representative hematoxylin/eosin (H&E) staining of ileum; Gut permeability was evaluated by (C) Fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-d) and (D) Serum endotoxins; E The genes encoding tight junction proteins including zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), Occludin, and Claudin-1 in ileal mucosa were determined. a-cMean values with different letters are significantly different (one-way ANOVA, P ≤ 0.05, Tukey’s post hoc test)Back to article page
