VIP variable importance to projection, obtained by OPLS-DA analysis. FA cells treated by formic acid, AA cells treated by acetic acid, F cells treated by furfural, H cells treated by 5-HMF, P cells treated by phenol, C cells treated by combined inhibitors. Symbol “\” denotes the metabolite is not identified as a biomarker in the relevant group. Superscript symbol “#” denotes the metabolite is up-regulated. Metabolite without symbol denotes it is down-regulated
