Faecal microbiota transplant from obese-APM and obese-STV offspring significantly increased body weight, glycaemia, fat mass and percentage of body fat without impacting lean mass. (A) Body weight. (B) Blood glucose concentrations during oral glucose tolerance test. (C) Glucose AUC from the oral glucose tolerance test. (D) Fat mass. (E) Percent fat mass. (F) Lean mass. Values are mean±SEM. a, b Superscripts indicate significant differences between groups where labelled means without a common superscript letter differ, p≤0.05. * indicates p<0.05; ** indicates p<0.01; *** indicates p<0.0005. CONV-APM, conventionalised aspartame (n=9); CONV-STV, conventionalised stevia (n=10); CONV-WTR, conventionalised water control (n=9). AUC, area under curve.
