CT (mean ± SD) is defined as the threshold cycle; the lower the number, the higher the expression. The fold change in colonic gene expression at 12 days postinfection is in comparison to expression in uninfected mice fed a diet adequate in selenium and vitamin E. *, the value is significantly different (P < 0.05) from that for the corresponding uninfected group. #, the value is significantly different (P < 0.05) from that for the infected group fed an adequate diet. †, the value is significantly different (P < 0.05) from that for the uninfected group fed an adequate diet. The results were obtained by merging data from three separate experiments (n = 7 to 21).
