Figure 6. Dietary E 171 exposure did not alter colonic inflammation as evidenced by inflammatory cytokine accumulation.

Figure 6.

Rats were pretreated with 180 mg/kg DMH or Vh control by i.p. injection and fed dietary E 171 for a total of 100 days. Following the 100 day feeding period, animals were euthanized and plasma was collected and assayed for inflammatory cytokines and chemokines using the LEGENDplex rat inflammation panel. Data are shown as cytokine/chemokine concentration (pg/ml) for colon. Cytokine protein levels were normalized to total protein levels for each sample of colon. Data were analyzed for statistical significance using a one-way ANOVA with a Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test when there were no significant differences in the variance of the standard deviation. *=p<0.05 indicates significance compared to respective no E 171 control.
