Changes in blood pressure over time in the WKY-DW group, DW group and LPS group. SBP (A), DBP (B) and MBP (C) were measured at 6 weeks old, 10 weeks old, 13 weeks old, 16 weeks old rats. Black: WKY-DW group, gray: DW group, light gray: LPS group. The data are presented as mean±SEM and were obtained from 2-4 rats per group. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 compared to the WKY-DW group.

Changes in blood pressure over time in the WKY-DW group, Na group and Na+LPS group. SBP (A), DBP (B) and MBP (C) were measure at 6 weeks old, 10 weeks old, 13 weeks old, 16 weeks old rats. Black: WKY-DW group, gray: Na group, light gray: Na+LPS group. The data are presented as mean±SEM and were obtained from 2-4 rats per group. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 compared to the WKY-DW group.

The levels of plasma biochemical markers in the DW group, LPS group, Na group and Na+LPS group. ALT: alanine aminotransferase (A), AST: Aspartate transaminase (B), T-BIL: total bilirubin (C), TG: triacylglycerol (D), HDL-C: high density lipoprotein cholesterol (E), LDL-C: low density lipoprotein cholesterol (F), OxLDL /LDL: oxidized LDL/LDL (G), T-CHO: total cholesterol (H). The data are presented as mean±SEM and were obtained from 2-4 rats per group.

Gut microbiota composition in the DW group, LPS group, Na group and Na+LPS group. Variations in bacterial community compositions in stool samples at the phylum levels. The ratio of Bacteroidetes to Firmicutes (B). Principal component analysis results from stool samples of DW and LPS group (C). C: Black circle: DW group; Gray circle: LPS group. Principal component analysis results from stool samples of Na and Na+LPS group (D). D: Black circle: Na group; Gray circle: Na+LPS group. The data were obtained from 2-4 rats per group.
