Worm expulsion and intestinal IL-10 levels after probiotic treatment in susceptible AKR mice. AKR mice were infected with T. muris and were treated with either JB-1 or MRS for 36 days beginning 1 day before infection. Mice were sacrificed on day 35 p.i. to assess worm burden and IL-10 in colonic tissue. (A) Worm burden in AKR mice after JB-1 or MRS treatment. (B) Colonic tissue IL-10 concentrations from infected AKR mice after JB-1 or MRS treatment. *, P < 0.05 (n = 4 for controls and 6 to 8 for treatment groups).
