Expression of genes involved in the Th17, Th1, and Treg immune response as well as bacterial recognition and cellular repair genes from the distal colon of mice inoculated with C. rodentium (CR+) consuming a control diet (CN), or a diet enriched with wheat bran (WB) or resistant starch (RS). a Il-17A, b Il-1β, c Tlr4, d Muc2, e Tnfα, f Ifnγ, g Il-10, h Tgfβ, i RegIIIγ, j Relmβ. Veritcal lines associated with histogram bars represent the standard error of the mean (n = 3). *Pairwise differences (P ≤ 0.050) between treatments. ^#Pairwise differences (P ≤ 0.100) between treatments. ^●●Difference (P ≤ 0.010) in overall expression compared to non-inflamed gene expression (Additional file 1: Figure S5). ^●Difference (P ≤ 0.100) relative to non-inflamed gene expression
