Effect of live and heat killed L. reuteri 6475 on cytokine expression in whole MLN cultures. Mesenteric lymph nodes were isolated from male C57BL/6 mice (12–18 weeks), homogenized and cultured with live or heat killed L. reuteri 6475 at an MOI of 1, 10 or 100 for 4 days. Cells were analyzed using flow cytometry for expression of IL-10, INFγ, IL-17 A and TGFβ. Results for MFI and % positive cells were analysed as (A) the whole MLN or (B) gated on the MLN CD4+ T cells. Statistical analysis performed by 2-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s multiple comparison test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001 compared to control. n = 5.
