The effect of diet and inulin on expression of genes implicated in bile acid homeostasis. Mice were treated based on the methods described under figure legend 1. a Relative level of hepatic mRNA was quantified by qPCR, b hepatic protein expression level by Western blot, and c the copy number of fecal bacteria genes that generate BAs was quantified by qRT-PCR. (baiJ, bile acid inducible operon gene of 7α-hydroxylase; bsh, bile salt hydrolase), Data expressed as mean ± SD. n = 4 per group. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
