Effect of oral DEP exposure on cecal SCFA content Acetic (a, d), propionic (b, e) and butyric acid (c, f) were measured in the cecal content of ApoE−/− (a-c) and C57Bl/6 (D-F) mice treated with PBS (CTL), 40, 200 or 1000 ng DEP/gavage. Data are expressed relative to the mean of CTL, and were analyzed by a one-way ANOVA followed by a Dunnett’s test (* p ≤ 0.05, ** p ≤ 0.01, *** p ≤ 0.001) and a test for linear trend (indicated p values) (n = 8 for ApoE−/−, n = 10 for C57Bl/6)
