Long-term L. edodes derived β-glucan supplementation inhibited the microgliosis and neuroinflammation in the prefrontal cortex of mice fed HF diet. a The representative image of immunohistochemistry staining of Iba1 in PFC, b the statistical results of Iba1⁺ positive cells in PFC. (C) mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in the PFC. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. n = 3 per group. ^*P < 0.05, ^**P < 0.01, vs lab chow diet group (LC); ^#P < 0.05, ^##P < 0.01, ^### P < 0.001, vs high-fat diet group (HF).
