Effect of supplemental C. butyricum on ileal BA contents of IUGR suckling piglets. A Principal component analysis (PCA) of ileal BAs. B The ratio of the content of conjugated BAs to unconjugated BAs. C Differential metabolites of conjugated BAs. D Differential metabolites of unconjugated BAs. The column and its bar represented the means value and SE (n = 6), respectively. Significant difference is depicted as *P < 0.05 when compared with NBW-CON, #P < 0.05 when compared with IUGR-CON group. THCA, taurohyocholic acid; GHCA, glycohyocholate; TCDCA, taurochenodeoxycholic acid; TCA, taurocholic acid; GCA, glycocholic acid; HDCA, hyodeoxycholic acid; 6-ketoLCA, 6-ketolithocholic acid; DCA, deoxycholic acid. NBW-CON, piglets with normal birth weight; IUGR-CON, piglets with intrauterine growth restriction; IUGR-CB, piglets with intrauterine growth restriction supplemented with Clostridium butyricum
