Figure 3- Analysis of periodontal tissues of infected or sham-infected mice subjected to the control or HF diets. (A) Representative images
of hemimaxillae of mice from different experimental groups. (B) Analysis of alveolar bone loss after 12 weeks with diet and 4 weeks
after oral inoculation of A. actinomycetemcomitans. The values (mean ± S.E.M) were obtained from 5 - 7 animals at each point in two
independent experiments, with a total of 35 mice. *p<0.05 when compared to control. One-way ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls. (C)
Heat-map representing differences on the oral microbiota analysis between mice fed with the control diet infected or non-infected with Aa,
and non-infected mice fed with the HF diet. Groups: C — Sham-infected group on the control diet. Aa — Group on the control diet, infected
with A. actinomycetemcomitans HF — Group on the HF diet, non-infected. N=5. *p<0.05 Aa compared to HF; #p<0.05 C compared to Aa;
+p<0.05 C compared to HF. A two-way ANOVA — Bonferroni multiple comparison test was performed. The values (mean ± S.E.M) are
representative of two independent experiments
