Neutrophil depletion results in enhanced Salmonella-colitis and fecal output. (A) FACS analysis shows the efficacy of neutrophil depletion by Ly6G antibody treatment in vivo. (B) Fecal samples were collected from Salmonella-infected mice that were treated with isotype control antibody or Ly6G antibody, and the numbers of Salmonella recovered from fecal samples were determined at 48 h postinfection. **, P < 0.01 (n = 4 to 5 mice per group). (C) Histopathological score of cecal inflammation in mice infected with Salmonella after treatment with isotype control antibody or anti-Ly6G antibody. *, P < 0.05.
