Figure 2. — Effects of dietary supplementation with plasma concentrate (spray-dried plasma, SDP) and the plasma protein fraction (PPF) on activated T lymphocytes and cytotoxic cell populations in Peyer's patches (PP; panel A) and lamina propria (LP; panel B) in a rat model of mild intestinal inflammation. Inflammation was induced by intraperitoneal administration of 50 μ g of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B (SEB) on d 30 and 33 of age. Animals were fed experimental diets for 14 d. The CD25 (activated T lymphocytes), CD25/CD4 (as the fraction of activated T helper lymphocytes), CD25/CD8 (as the fraction of activated suppressor/cytotoxic T lymphocytes), natural killer (NK) cells, and δγ-T cells (T lymphocytes that express the δγ-T cell receptor) as percentages respect to total number of lymphocytes (A) and as number of cells per mm² (B). Results are mean ± SEM of 8 to 10 animals in PP and 5 to 8 animals in LP. Symbols indicate significant differences (P < 0.05): *vs. control group; §vs. SEB group (from Pérez-Bosque et al., 2004, 2008b).
