[Retracted] Acupuncture Effect Assessment in APP/PS1 Transgenic Mice: On Regulating Learning-Memory Abilities, Gut Microbiota, and Microbial Metabolites
Table 2
List of relevant metabolites identified by VIP scores.
The sequence of the metabolites indicates their importance for the contribution to the group separations. “↑” in M vs. C indicates that specific metabolites in the APP/PS1 model group are upregulated in comparison to the control group. “↓” in M vs. C indicates that specific metabolites in the APP/PS1 model group are downregulated in comparison the to control group. “↑” in A vs. M indicates that specific metabolites in the acupuncture treatment group are upregulated in comparison to the APP/PS1 model group. “↓” in A vs. M indicates that specific metabolites in the acupuncture treatment group are downregulated in comparison to the acupuncture treatment group. “” reveals the significant difference of metabolites abundance between the two groups determined by Student’s -test, :::;:.
