Plasma short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) levels and gene expression of corresponding receptors in placenta tissue. Plasma (A) acetic acid, (B) propionic acid, and (C) butyric acid levels of the rats with high-fat (HF) diet or control (CC) diet determined using gas chromatography. The mRNA expression of (D) GPR41, (E) GPR43, (F) OLFR59 in placental tissue. The housekeeping gene was 18S ribosomal RNA, and mRNA expression is presented in terms of relative fold (n = 6 for each group). *P < 0.05. The median was shown. GPR, G-protein-coupled receptor; OLFR59, olfactory receptor 59.
