Assessing liver function after mild CLP model in three groups of mice. (a) : HE staining of the liver at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after CLP in the three groups. In the three groups, the hepatocytes of the rats were arranged neatly, and the hepatic lobule structure was intact. (b) : CLP caused a slight increase in alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, but the total bilirubin level did not change significantly at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after CLP. (c) : Ammonia levels in serum and hippocampal tissues were significantly higher in the CLP group than in the control and sham groups. ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01, ^***p < 0.001, ^****p < 0.0001
