Increased gut permeability and microbial products are associated with monocyte in mice model of MI. a Gut permeability is elevated in the colon of MI mice. n = 4–6 for each group. b The augments of permeability in the distal small intestine, cecum, and colon at the third day of MI. n = 6 for each group. c–d The serum levels of LPS and d-lactate are enhanced after MI. n = 5 for each group. e–f The Ly6Chi monocyte proportion in MI mice is significantly increased as compared to the sham group. n = 5 for each group. g–h LPS and d-lactate are positively correlated with Ly6Chi monocyte proportion. n = 5 for each group. Correlation coefficients are reported as Pearson linear correlations. Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m. **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001, vs respective shams, t test
