The genus Lactobacillus mediated generation of 5-MIAA was capable of activating hepatic Nrf2 signaling. (A,B) Analysis of the different relative abundances of the bacterial community at the family and genus levels in HFD, TH, and HFD + FMT(TH) groups. (C) The correlations between the relative abundance of the main genus of the bacterial community and the top 30 metabolites in the HFD and FMT (TH) groups. (D–G) Content of 5-MIAA analyzed by UPLC-MS/MS in the fermentation broth of CON, HFD, CON + LGG, and HFD + LGG groups. (H–J) Relative mRNA expression of the GCLC, NQO1, and TXR1 of HepG2 cells treated with 5-MIAA. (K) Western blot analyses of Nrf2 in HepG2 cells treated with 5MIAA. All the data were presented as the means ± SD from n = 6 mice per group. Significant differences compared with the CON group were indicated by asterisks: *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001.
