TLR family genes are upregulated in intestinal eosinophils of offspring born from mice fed with propionate (a) Expression levels of Gpr41 mRNA were evaluated by qPCR in eosinophils, B cells, CD4+ T cells, and CD8+ T cells isolated by FACS from small intestinal lamina propria (SILP) and lung cells of wild-type C57BL/6 mice. (b) Schematic depiction of the experimental protocols for isolation of mRnas used in (c-e). (c) Heatmap of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the Propionate group and Control water group and a list of the genes upregulated (middle) and downregulated (right) in the Propionate group. (d) Bar plots of the combined score for gene ontology (GO) term enrichment in GO biological processes for DEGs between the propionate group and the Control water group. (e) Expression levels of Tlr2, Tlr8 and Trl9 mRNA in wild-type and GPR41 knockout SILP eosinophils were evaluated by qPCR. Data are mean ± SD. **p < 0.01 by Student’s t-test. (f) Expression levels of Tlr2, Tlr8 and Trl9 mRNA in lung eosinophils were evaluated by qPCR. Data are mean ± SD. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 by Student’s t-test.
