Administration of LGG improves the Th17/Treg balance in gut. (a) Thymus and spleen index (organ weight/body weight). (n=(12). Frequencies of Th 17 cells and T reg in MLN. (c-d) Th17(CD4+IL-17A+), Treg(CD4+CD25+FOXP3+). (n = 3). (e) the IL-17+/FOXP3+ % value represents the difference of Th17/Treg ratio between groups. (n = 3). (f-i) Colonic pro-inflammatory cytokines concentration. IL-17, TNF-α; colonic anti-inflammatory cytokine concentration. IL-10, TGF-β. (n = 6). Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001 (Dunnett multiple comparisons test). Th 17, T helper cell 17; T reg, Regulatory T cell; MLN, mesenteric lymph nodes; LGG, Lactobacillus rhamnosus.
