Fig 1. G. muris attenuates concomitant C. rodentium-induced colitis.

Fig 1

Male C57/BL6 mice (7–8 week old) were infected with either G. muris, or C. rodentium (C.r.), or both in co-infection (G. muris + C.r.). The figure illustrates (A) Changes in body weights and (B) disease activity index (DAI) assessed over 14 days. (C) On day 14 post-infection, colonic myeloperoxydase activity (MPO), (D) macroscopic damage of the colon and (E) histopathological damage scores on H&E stained tissue were assessed. All data are representative of n = 5–10/group and represented as mean±SEM. * p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001 –compared to control group (CTR); # p<0.05, ## p<0.01 versus the corresponding group, indicated by line; n.d. means not detected, that is equivalent to 0.
