%X Study design of timeline (a) and grouping (b). Forty female and 40 male 6-week old CD-1 mice were randomly divided into four groups and segregated by sex and fed a 20% high-fat diet supplemented with (i) maltodextrin alone (MD), (ii) maltodextrin£¿+£¿¦Å-polylysine (PL), (iii) maltodextrin£¿+£¿pectin (P), and (iv) maltodextrin£¿+£¿¦Å-polylysine£¿+£¿pectin (PL-P). Five mice were co-housed and pooled fecal pellets from each cage were collected in 24-h metabolic cages and analyzed at three points: week 1, week 5, and week
