Expression of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines associated with the Th17/Treg balance in mice with DSS-induced colitis. (a) Expression levels of IL-22, (b) IL-6, (c) IL-17A, (d) IL-17F, (e) TNF-α, (f) TGF-β, and (g) IL-10 in the colorectum, as determined by ELISA. P < 0.05; ∗∗P < 0.01; ∗∗∗P < 0.001 versus the DSS-treated group. Data are presented as means ± SD of four mice in each group (a–g, n = 4). Fro = fructooligosaccharides group, Cp = Codonopsis pilosula polysaccharide group, Cs = Codonopsis pilosula saponins group, Con = control group, and Mod = DSS-induced colitis group.
