Effects of cyclic nigerosylnigerose (CNN) on gene expression levels of inflammatory cytokines (A) and MPO activity (B) in the colon of mice with DSS-induced colitis. Con: control group; DSS: DSS group; CNN-DSS: CNN-DSS group. The gene expression levels of il1b, il6, and mcp1 are shown as mRNA levels relative to that in the control group. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM. Values without a common letter are statistically significantly different (p<0.05).
