Resveratrol-mediated reduction of serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IFN-γ in DSS-induced colitis. Colitis was induced in mice that were exposed to vehicle or 100 mg/kg b.wt. of resveratrol as described in the legend to Fig. 1. Serum cytokines were measured 14 days after the DSS induction of colitis by ELISA assay. The data presented are the mean concentrations from six mice ± S.E.M. in serum. Asterisks indicate statistically significance difference (P < 0.01) between DSS+vehicle and DSS+RES-treated mice.
