Figure 7. Metabolite concentration changes relative to corresponding controls at different time points after S. japonicum infection.

The insert showed different severity at week 5 post infection. Keys: 3-UP, 3-ureidopropionate; PAG, phenylacetylglycine; 2-Kiv, 2-keto-isovalerate; DMA, dimethylamine; TMA, trimethylamine. C_inf and C_con stand for the averaged concentration in the infection and control group, respectively. Dashed lines indicated no changes and solid lines were for visual guidance only.
