Fig 6. Expression of CXCL11 in is greater in animals infected with ΔΔstx vs WT EHEC.

(A) Micrographs of colon sections from rabbits inoculated with WT EHEC, ΔΔstx EHEC, or PBS (mock) stained with a probe to rabbit CXCL11 mRNA (red) and DAPI (blue). Scale bar is 500 μM. (B) Percentage of tissue section with CXCL11 signal from individual colons. Distributions compared using Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.01 (**), n.s. indicates not significant. (C) Mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) from individual colons plotted with mean. Distributions compared using Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.01 (**), n.s. indicates not significant. (D) Percent CXCL11 signal within E-cadherin positive cells. Distributions compared using the Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.05 (*). (E) Sections stained with a probe to rabbit CXCL11 mRNA (red), DAPI (blue), and anti-E-cadherin antibody (white). Scale bar is 500 μM. Example immune cell (IC) and epithelial cell (EC) is indicated.
