Plasma metabolites in the tryptophan (Trp)- kynurenine (Kyn) pathway, relationship with inflammation indexes, and liver gene expressions. a Correlation analysis between TAG and Trp concentration in plasma. b Plasma Kyn/Trp ratio × 1000 (KTR). Correlation analysis for plasma Kyn/Trp ratio and (c) plasma antioxidant capacity, (d) liver anti-inflammatory index, and (e) liver atherogenicity index. f mRNA expression analysis in liver. Data represented mean ± standard deviation. Statistical significance between control and TTP was shown as: * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.02; *** P < 0.001
