AIM2 deficiency protects mice from POI. Wt, NLRP3−/−, NLRC4−/− and AIM2−/− mice underwent IM. Analysis was performed 24h after IM. (A) Infiltrating myeloperoxidase (MPO)+ cells were counted in ME whole mount specimens. (nwt = 6, nNLRP3−/− = 5, nNLRC4−/− = 6, nAIM2−/− = 9). (B) In vivo gastrointestinal motility was analysed by detection of the geometric centre (GC). (B) (nwt15, nNLRP3−/− = 5, nNLRC4−/− = 6, nAIM2−/− = 9). (C) IL-1β production was measured in ME organ culture supernatants by ELISA. (C) (nwt11, nNLRP3−/− = 4, nAIM2−/− = 4). Statistical analyses: 1-way ANOVA with Bonferroni test. GC = geometric centre, st = stomach, c = cecum, col = colon.
