Data are median ± interquartile range, analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis one-way ANOVA and Dunn’s post hoc; n = 12 ctrl, n = 12 B. hyodysenteriae, and n = 12 B. hampsonii. Basal mucosal-to-serosal flux (Jms), serosal-to-mucosal flux (Jsm), and net flux rates during 22Na equilibration across apex colonic segments from control, B. hyodysenteriae, and B. hampsonii-diseased pigs were measured immediately following mounting and clamping of the tissue (basal) and at the end of the 80-min equilibration period. M-S, unidirectional mucosal-to-serosal 22Na flux; S-M, unidirectional serosal-to-mucosal 22Na flux; Net, net 22Na flux; TEER, transepithelial electric resistance. Significant differences within tissue groups across the basal and 80-min time points are in underlined. Significantly different values within each group are marked in bold. Each value marked with a different superscript letter differs by at least P < 0.05 compared with other groups at the same time points.
